Squad Busters Tier List

[@chisguleplays]

UPDATE: Since the latest balance patch, Trader got a MASSIVE BUFF and is now S or A tier. Check out my trader vid for the full explanation. I'd also bump chicken up to a C. I'll release a new tier-list after the game goes global, so be on the lookout for an update to this vid! Keep in mind that this reflects what I think the raw potential is for each character, and that specific combinations can make characters dramatically more powerful! Also keep in mind that although I'm top 70 on the global leaderboard, the more I play the more I learn and my perspective will almost certainly shift as I continue to get more experience with each character. Subscribe to see how this list evolves!

Every round I feel like I have no idea what’s happening

[@WalidBachiri]

The problem with SB tier lists is that there is 2 opposite playstyles: Farming Simulator (PvE) and Squad Fighter (PvP). And even though some might be strong in both, most unites only work great in one playstyle. And also, if you haven't unlocked all units or 3 starred all of them, PvP is too risky so most beginners and F2P players focus on the farming strategy to guarantee top 5 for now, that will probably change on global release. Pretty good tier list overall anyway with detailed explanation as this is always a subjective topic.

[@hyoga.official]

Trader in F Tier is absolutely diabolical

[@Buddybud._.]

It was terrible back then

[@marvinmonaghan]

Global just got released, can’t wait for the updated video 💯😎

[@TheGreatDaneco]

I think it's pretty funny that you have trader and chicken together because they work really well together as a passive outside the map pick where you can usually still make top 5 from the bonus gems every time the trader drops them. The fact that he actually drops them instead of adding them straight to your amount is definitely a setback though. The chicken boots help keep you away from the stronger teams if you chose a bunch of supplier troops.

[@harnaikaujla3400]

Colt in D tier is a crime

[@chisguleplays]

Maybe… buuuuuuuuut just wait till you lose fights because your colt gets busted

[@AYE.DOMINO_143cult]

real 😭

[@marufsarker5437]

Colt fusion deals a lot of damage and he stays behind others

[@ChrisAnderson0320]

I like Colt early on but he gets killed so easy later on.

[@alienatedbean12]

I used to used the crap out of colt but realized after, that when I would go PVP I would lose most of the time to squads that were same strength to mine or higher cause colt couldn't hang and would be the first to go.. sometime it was even a instant kill on my colt. Even fused.. he is extremely weak but high damage for early game

[@magea2926]

Here is why the chicken and traders are good. Chicken: is chicks alow to have an early common witch that can distract early invaders. His turbo also boost your early fight or flight decision, because it does not only boost mouvement speed, but also attack speed. Trader: his strat his simple. You know you wont be able to dominate the middle and dont want to loose the game. You stack up traders and go full on PvE on the outside. It may not give you first, but it surely wont make you last place. Its very good when paired with another supliers in the early match or a PvE character like Bo. Its not a win conditions, but its a good failsafe for whenever you feel a winning doubt.

[@DiapriceGames]

Greg, Mavis, Trader, chicken, goblin, and penny is busted as a team and work really well together even with those units they allow you to slowly climb the rank in games and with their abilites to collect coins and gain gems with the trader combined with the fusion goblin to really help push the trader to a valueable unit and Penny can use her maps to help passively collect gems/coins. The chicken is a good unit to provide little defense and supply your team with hatchlings to help give your team extra power against monsters/players especially if they decide to mess with you. I don't know much about penny if she functions the same as brawl stars but for her when she hits a enemy the attack splits behind them and attack the enemies behind them, idk if this mechanic is on her atm? you can still win while not dominating the center for some players they might want to passively stay on the sidelines and see if its possible to win that way but either way you don't have to be in the center

[@monkeywizard77]

I've had a lot of luck with fused Mavis/trader builds. You can hang out around the outside as long as possible, picking carrots and getting gems.

[@marcohueber5130]

Goblin is S tier in Doppelgangers, if RNG is with you and you get it every 2nd chest, you end up earning so much gold, it feels unfair. Switch from goblins to chickens as often as possible to earn more than you can spend and minimize travel time. Feels like a money/boost duplication glitch

[@3DaKidNolo3]

Don’t sleep on the chicken you get that turbo early!

[@IcycleBicycle]

Chicken in F tier?!? After it became known that while holding the boots and STAYING in one place your entire squad fires faster no WAY it is in F tier I would put Chucky Cheese in C tier

[@chisguleplays]

I agree actually. Vid coming out soon about exactly that same conclusion, just recorded it

[@IcycleBicycle]

@chisguleplays you are the best bro 🔥 I sure as heck didn't know this game mechanic before today it's crazy

[@UnkownCollecter62]

LOVE yours videos !

[@kimi8472]

I think greg deserves to be S tier and trader with the right synergies in your loadout is fantastic, easily B+, but otherwise deadweight so a bit situational but F still feels harsh. Greg is imo the best first pick in the game and if you can stack traders early you can easily get first place without having to ever go in the middle. I only barely reached beach though and haven’t played ranked so maybe it’s different higher up but I’d almost always take an early greg/traders over squishy witches & nitas

[@Jermo25]

Love the video,happy to see this content instead of ROK 😊 👍🏾

[@gamersreactions9267]

The problem with this list, is that it doesnt really factor in how far most people are. Barely anybody has reached Beach World without paying, and people are getting to royal world just now.

[@Abduz1e]

is trader still bad in your opinion? I’ve seen people saying he’s S tier after the buffs

[@cryptex3994]

Hi, I play the game quite a bit, most of my squad is 3 stars About the Wizard: You can only use the spell that is highlighted in gold, but you can swap spells by tapping the Grey (2nd) spell. I would say wizard is high B even low A Think about AoE Dmg build Wizard Dynamike Hog Rider or max Any tank, healer, and resource Practice stutter steps and if you by chance have the Royal King 3 star in your squad that drops elixir spell you wipe a whole squad in just a few attacks Playstyle is aggressive and very hard to pull off, but if you study the squad members you can potentially get and plan for it, also get luck on your side with the chests... It's an EXPLOSIVE COMBO

Its speed meta, always pick atleast ONE chicken if you dont have access to Max or Hog Rider. Maybe not as a first pick but third or fourth.

Be glad you dn’t have Dr. T and Royale King. They suck.

[@mn_seahawk25thehawk64]

Man bro crapped on my whole squad 😂😂😂. I main chicken, Trader & Goblin. I’ve come to learn with this combo you don’t even need to fight anything, the Goblin gives coins for the next box while the trader drops gems as the Goblin drops the coins and chicken is there for retreating.

[@Shepkillz]

I would swap greg and goblin. If you manage to start with goblin, that coin burst at the start is clutch. They both become about useless after the first minute

[@cookinitupwithty5999]

Trader is actually really good with either a goblin start or a Greg or Mavis start you only need one fusion at the most so I’d say low C

Which is better Archer queen or witch?

[@Bokaley]

If you have a lot of range units - Queen, otherwise - witch

[@LucasTiberius]

Indeed Max is a she, and so is Nita. Brawl stars (the game these characters are from) has several brawlers that look like they could be any gender. (Sandy is another brawler people confuse often. Not in squad busters yet though.)

[@BlueBoyGuy121]

Colt is actually kinda good dps hp or damage chicken is bad for first picked but mid is kinda decent cuz 3-star chicken drops some boosts and it’s worth it

[@noahburmeister771]

Early Chicken dominates in super gem mine. Just be the first to the center and get 50 gems

Is it a good idea to not claim archer queen and witch because then you only get barbarian kings to level

Both are great. At this point I might steer you toward the max for the unique speed boost effect. If you prefer an all-rounder that can get you a killer start, mortis is solid
