This Shadowverse Worlds Beyond Class tier list will help you choose the best character for a successful playthrough. Each class (leader) has its own set of cards, which they can use alone, and we went through all of them to create a definitive tier list for you.
All Classes Ranked - Shadowverse Tier List
| Tier | Class |
|---|---|
| S | Portalcraft |
| A | Dragoncraft, Runecraft |
| B | Forestcraft, Havencraft |
| C | Abysscraft, Swordcraft |
We based this tier list on the notion that you have all cards available and that you're able to create any type of deck. With that said, if you don't have all the cards, you're experience may vary. Because Shadowverse is also a gacha game, you don't have full control of what kind of cards you're going to pull.
It's important to know that, even if you have the best cards from the lowest class on this tier list, that's usually going to be a better deal than playing the best class with bad cards. Of course, class means nothing if you don't create the best deck available. With that said, here is our class tier list.
S-Tier: Best Class in Shadowverse
| Class | Info |
|---|---|
 Portalcraft |
- Out of all the classes in Shadowverse, Portalcraft has the most versatile and unpredictable play style. - If you learn your cards correctly, you can turn the tide of almost any battle and get out of even hopeless situations. Not to mention, the puppeteer cards are so OP, it's not even funny. |
A-Tier
| Class | Info |
|---|---|
 Runecraft |
- Runecraft relies more on magic spells than actual summons. In fact, some of the best spells in the game are from this class. - Not only can the spells dish out damage and help you recover, but with cards like Dimensional Climb, you can completely regain your balance, even if you're losing. |
 Dragoncraft |
If you find yourself always running out of Play Points, then this is the class for you. Dragoncraft has powerful summons and spells that always boost your Play Points. Dragoncraft feels like you are using brute force to overthrow your player, and honestly, that's not a bad tactic in Shadowverse. |
B-Tier
| Class | Info |
|---|---|
 Havencraft |
The way you play a Havencraft deck is that you deal minimal damage while keeping your summons and HP high as you build power. Even though it's a bit weak early on, Havencraft gets more powerful the longer the game goes on. If you enjoy shielding and healing yourself as you build power, then this is a fun class. |
 Forestcraft |
If you like the idea of having a massive army of (weak) units and overrunning your opponent, that's what the Forestcraft deck is for. Even though many cards aren't too powerful, Forestcraft is definitely quantity over quality, but in the best possible way. Sure, you'll be losing units left and right, but you'll also be summoning them all the time, and most of the time, that's enough to get a win. |
C-Tier
| Class | Info |
|---|---|
 Swordcraft |
Swordcraft is like a weaker version of Forestcraft. You don't summon that many minions, but you still summon often. What makes Swordcraft stand out is how you get to buff all your summons. Unfortunately, this is the only type of playstyle you have with this class. It's straightforward, but predictable and can be easily countered. |
 Abysscraft |
As cool as Abyscraft cards look and feel, they really aren't fun to play sometimes. These cards rely on sacrificing your own HP and cards to gain the upper hand. Unfortunately, this also means that by the time you get something powerful, you'll be out of HP and cards, and you're opponent will just win by default. Abyscraft looks cool, but it just ain't cool. |
