How to make a tier list with friends

By Farasat Abbas Naqvi·Updated July 2026

Tier lists are best as a group activity — nothing starts a friendly argument like ranking things together. Here is how to make a tier list with friends and share the result.

Start a board to rank together:
Make a tier list

Pick a topic everyone has opinions on

The best group topics are ones everyone knows: fast food, movies, songs, or your friend group’s inside jokes. Browse tier list ideas if you need inspiration, or grab a ready template.

Rank it together on one screen

Gather around one device, share your screen on a call, or pass it around. Drag each item into a tier as the group debates. The board saves in the browser, so you can pause and come back.

Settle the debates

Disagreements are the point. Use the middle tiers (B and C) for compromises, and rename tiers to something fun like “Goated” and “Trash” — see creative tier names for ideas.

Export and share the verdict

When you are done, export a PNG and drop it in the group chat. It is the perfect way to make the ranking official and keep the debate going.
