40+ heroes and villains are loaded and ready — drag them into tiers, add anyone we missed, and rank the entire Marvel universe.

This board is the MCU — the films and the characters in them. If you came for one of the games, the Marvel Rivals tier list and the Marvel Contest of Champions tier list are separate boards with their own rosters.
Assemble your definitive Marvel tier list with more than 40 characters already loaded — Avengers, X-Men, Guardians and the villains who nearly beat them. Drag Iron Man, Spider-Man, Thanos and the rest into the S through D rows and settle who actually earns a top spot. It works as an Avengers tier list, a broader MCU tier list, or a full Marvel characters tier list — the tray covers heroes and villains alike.
Power level, screen presence, comic history, best arc — rank Marvel characters by whatever you value most. Feeling extra? Add the films and build a Marvel movies tier list on the same board. If you want sharper labels than S–D, borrow ideas from our list of creative tier names, and if the top row is getting crowded, our explainer on what makes something S-tier helps you cut it down. Export a PNG when you're done.
Because the tray blends Avengers, mutants and cosmic villains, you can run several rankings from one board: a best Avengers tier list, a Marvel villains tier list, or an everyone-in-the-MCU showdown. Drag anyone you're not ranking back to the tray to keep a category clean, then add the deep cuts only real fans remember.
If you are ranking by raw power rather than by favourite, the top of the board is not really up for debate: cosmic and reality-warping characters outclass everyone else, and the gap is enormous. Below them the argument gets fun. Here is a power-based starting ranking — worth saying plainly that comic power scaling is inconsistent by design, and the MCU versions are weaker than their comic counterparts almost across the board.
Our own ranking, not a survey — a starting point to disagree with. Drag it into whatever shape you think is right on the board above.
These are two different boards and mixing them is why Marvel tier lists turn into arguments. A power ranking asks who wins the fight, which pushes Scarlet Witch and Doctor Strange up and leaves Hawkeye stranded at the bottom no matter how much you like him. A favourites ranking asks who you actually enjoy watching, and that board looks completely different — Loki and Spider-Man tend to climb, and half the cosmic tier drops out. Pick which question you are answering before you start, and say so when you post it.
Drag each character from the tray into a tier from S to D, then export a PNG. Everything is pre-loaded, so you can start ranking immediately.
Yes — hit Add items and type the film titles to build a Marvel movies tier list, or keep it to characters. You can run both on separate boards.
They are. Thanos, Loki, Venom, Ultron and more are in the tray so you can rank heroes and villains together or split them out.
Among the characters most people rank, Scarlet Witch and Doctor Strange sit at the top because reality-warping beats raw strength, and Thanos with the Infinity Gauntlet outclasses everyone. In the wider comics there are cosmic and abstract beings above all of them, so the answer depends on whether you are ranking the movies or the source material.
Generally yes. The films scale most characters down for the sake of stakes and story, so a comics-based ranking and an MCU-based ranking end up looking quite different. Decide which one your board is before you start.
Either works, but pick one. A power ranking asks who wins the fight; a favourites ranking asks who you enjoy watching. Mixing the two is what turns Marvel tier lists into arguments.
