ATHENA: Blood Twins is a mobile MMORPG/gacha where min-maxing your character is paramount if you want to have a smooth and enjoyable progression. A big part of your character's strength will be the heroes you equip, and with only 3 deploy slots, you'll need to choose wisely. To help you out, here is our ultimate ATHENA: Blood Twins hero tier list!
ATHENA: Blood Twins Heroes Tier List
In the tier list above, we ranked all heroes in ATHENA: Blood Twins based on their overall power across all game content. Below you'll find the ranking criteria we used to evaluate each character, and further down is the breakdown of each hero's pros and cons.
Ranking Factors
- DPS: DPS is by far the most important thing for every character. The higher it is, the faster you'll be with clearing content and progressing in the game.
- Utility: Stuns, slows, heals, shields, cleanses, etc. are all great utility that some heroes possess and that make certain game modes much easier, even if they seemed impossible to do.
- Role Viability: The more competition a hero has for a certain role, the harder it will be to rank the best, as in the end, you'll want only the most OP and well-rounded squad, not just the three heroes with the highest DPS.
