The Battle Cats tier list - the best Uber Cats
You want to expand your cat roster, but you also want to put together a team made of some of the strongest, most interesting cats in The Battle Cats? Then look no further, because our Battle Cats tier list will give you all the information you need. In this game, you can collect hundreds of cats, but only deploy a handful of them onto your team, and then into battle.
If you want to find out who the best cats are, then our article will give you everything there is to know. We've listed the cats based on their rarities, with the Uber Cats at the top, and then the common ones all the way to the bottom. Before we dive into the Battle Cats tier list though, let's cover some of the more important aspects of the game.
The Battle Cats Uber tier list - why are they so important?
Uber cats are the rarest of all the cats available in-game, and they can have rather unique abilities. They are also extremely strong, and way above the other cat types in terms of strength. The tier list of Uber cats will rank every single one of them based on the current meta, so if the one you own is not in the S+ tier, worry not - it's still super strong and way above the Super Rare cats and below (so you can use it and upgrade it as you wish).Also read:
Each cat specialises in specific feats, such as area damage, single target damage, immunity to specific negative effects, and a lot more - you get the idea. That will make them more (or less) ideal for specific types of content. You should always pay attention to these since they can greatly affect the way a stage is playing out.
We've also ranked the other cats below, so if you're eager to check them and their ranking out, then let's dive right in!

We've not added the collab units, as many of them are region-exclusive. We've not added the PC-exclusive ones either. Let us know if you'd like us to update the list and add them as well! Original article by Cristina Mesesan, updated by Artur Novichenko

Uber Cats
Uber Cats are a little bit more special than your usual Rare or Special. They are often obtained via limited means (events, special holidays, collabs, etc) and they can be truly great. However, obtaining them is a little tough so you need to know who to save your resources for. This list should come in handy - try to focus on the top-tier cats, or if you have the means, collect them all!

Super Rare Cats
Super Rares are extremely powerful, and you'll probably find them a lot easier than the Uber Cats (unless you're super lucky). They are strong and will provide enough damage and utility to get you through a lot of the mid to end game stages until you get some good Ubers.

Rare Cats
Rare Cats are great overall since they are affordable and land somewhere in the middle of the pack. They are not too difficult to obtain, and you can upgrade them to become great mid-game units. They will not be that awesome for the late game instances, but they'll do until you get something better. At the start of the game, if you have a couple of Rare Cats, then you should add them to the roster because they'll make a big difference.

Special Cats
Special Cats are the first "better-than-normal" cats to be available in the game, and they can be purchased from the shop or obtained via gacha. They are okay, but not the ideal units for taking into the mid to late game. Use them at the start, but then make sure to switch to some stronger cats.
