How we ranked the heroes

We did not copy one site. We took the two most recent full FEH tier lists, Game8 (October 19, 2026) and Pocket Tactics (October 15, 2026), and combined them. Heroes rated 9.9 by Game8 and SS by Pocket Tactics are S+. Heroes rated 9.9 by Game8 but not yet tested by Pocket Tactics (most of them are brand new) are S. Heroes rated 9.5 by Game8 and SS by Pocket Tactics are A, and 9.5 plus S is B. Heroes the two lists disagree on more than that are left out, so every hero here is a safe pick.

This is a top heroes list. A hero in B tier is still a strong unit that most players would be happy to pull. Ratings focus on Arena, Aether Raids and hard PvE maps.

What changed since our September list

Our old list only named 11 top heroes. Four of them are still in our ranking but lower: Mythic Lyn (S+ → S), Emblem Sigurd (S+ → A), Freyr (S+ → A), Valentine’s Rhea (S+ → B). Ferox Fir, Emblem Eirika, Legendary Black Knight, Brave Baldr, Young Camilla, Ascended Idunn and Brave Seliph dropped out because at least one source no longer puts them at the very top.

The biggest new names are Brave Sigurd, Dietrich, Halloween Kurt, Brave Tsubasa and Cheerleader Byleth (F). Together with Emblem Roy, they are the only heroes that both sources put in their highest tier. October also brought Duo Brave Edelgard and Vista Gullveig, which Game8 already rates 9.9.

FEH tier list by color, November 2026

Who should you pull for?

Red: Brave Sigurd and Dietrich are the strongest. Halloween Kurt is the best red mage.
Blue: Cheerleader Byleth (F) is the top pick, with Alfaðör and Emblem Byleth close behind.
Green: Brave Tsubasa is the safest pull. Summer Baldr and Duo Brave Edelgard are close.
Colorless: Vista Gullveig and Legendary Elise lead, with Ninja Gullveig and Sacaen Takumi in A tier.

Most top heroes are seasonal or Legendary heroes. They only come back on special banners, so save Orbs for the hero you want instead of spending on every new banner.

FAQ

Who is the best hero in Fire Emblem Heroes right now?

In November 2026 the best FEH heroes are Brave Sigurd, Dietrich, Emblem Roy, Halloween Kurt, Cheerleader Byleth (F) and Brave Tsubasa. They are the only heroes that both Game8 and Pocket Tactics put in their top tier.

How often is this FEH tier list updated?

We update it every month and after big banners. New heroes are added once at least two tier lists have rated them.

Are new heroes always better?

Usually, yes. FEH has strong power creep, so new seasonal, Brave and Legendary heroes tend to beat older units. Older heroes are still fine for story and most PvE maps.

Why are some popular heroes missing?

We only list heroes that both sources rank highly. If one list rates a hero high and the other rates them lower, we leave them out until the lists agree.
