MBTI Tier List Maker

All 16 personality types are pre-loaded — drag them into tiers and settle which MBTI type really deserves S.

Want to label tiers by trait instead of S–D? Hit the Tiers button to rename rows, or + Add items to add functions or enneagram types.

An MBTI tier list takes the 16 Myers-Briggs personality types and stacks them from S-tier favorite to D-tier menace, based on one question — best friend, best boss, most likely to cancel plans. Every four-letter code from INTJ to ESFP comes loaded as a text tile. Rename the rows with the Tiers button if S-to-D feels too tame, then drag each type where it belongs.

About this template

Rank all 16 personality types

Put every type in its place with an MBTI tier list that comes loaded with all 16 personalities — INTJ, ENFP, ISFJ, ESTP and the rest. Drag them into S through D to build a 16 personalities tier list based on whoever you would actually want to be stuck with. Use it as a playful personality types tier list, a friend-group callout, or a serious debate about which cognitive stack comes out on top.

There is no scientifically correct order — which is exactly why ranking MBTI types is such a reliable way to start an argument. Rank by who is the best friend, the best leader, or the most chaotic. Looking for more to sort? Our tier list ideas has dozens of topics, and you can literally make a tier list of anything with the same tool. Export a PNG and tag the types who ranked too low.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator was put together during World War II by Katharine Cook Briggs and her daughter Isabel Briggs Myers, building on Carl Jung's ideas about psychological types. Psychologists have criticized it for decades — retake the test and there's a real chance you'll land on a different type — so treat it as a personality framework people rank for fun, not settled science. That's why a Myers-Briggs tier list works so well: nobody's type is sacred. Wikipedia covers the history and the criticism if you want ammunition for the comments, and the community chart right under the board shows how other visitors sorted the same 16 codes.

Which personality type is really S-tier?

Every type thinks its own row should be highest, so this one gets personal fast. Rank by the trait you value most — loyalty, ambition, creativity, humor — and watch how differently people sort the same 16 boxes. It is a favorite for friend groups and online personality communities.

Other lenses work just as well. Rank by rarity — commonly cited US estimates put INFJ as the rarest type and ISFJ among the most common — or by which pairs make the best MBTI ships, which types you'd trust in which careers, or pure meme value. For an MBTI tier list meme, rename the rows to something like "would survive a zombie outbreak" and let the replies do the rest.

The four letters and the four role groups

Each code takes one letter from four pairs: Introversion or Extraversion (I/E), Sensing or Intuition (S/N — N, because I was taken), Thinking or Feeling (T/F), and Judging or Perceiving (J/P). Introvert versus extrovert is the split most people argue about first.

Most people also know the types by nickname. The names below and the four role groups come from the popular 16Personalities test rather than the official Myers-Briggs materials, but they're the shorthand most personality type tier lists use:

Analysts: INTJ Architect, INTP Logician, ENTJ Commander, ENTP Debater. Diplomats: INFJ Advocate, INFP Mediator, ENFJ Protagonist, ENFP Campaigner. Sentinels: ISTJ Logistician, ISFJ Defender, ESTJ Executive, ESFJ Consul. Explorers: ISTP Virtuoso, ISFP Adventurer, ESTP Entrepreneur, ESFP Entertainer.

For a quick variation, add the four group names with + Add items and rank those first, then check whether your S tier is all one group. It usually says more about the person ranking than the types.

FAQ

How do I make an MBTI tier list?+

All 16 types are pre-loaded — drag each into a tier from S to D, then export a PNG to share your ranking.

Can I rank by a specific trait?+

Yes. Rename the tiers (best friend, best leader, most chaotic) using the Tiers button, then sort the types to match.

Can I add enneagram or cognitive functions?+

Sure — hit Add items to type any other system labels and rank those instead of, or alongside, the 16 types.

Which MBTI is the strongest?+

None of them, officially — the Myers-Briggs framework describes preferences, not strength or skill. People who argue about it usually mean something specific: ENTJ and ESTJ tend to get the nod for leadership, ISTP for staying calm in a crisis, INTJ for long-range planning. To settle it among friends, rename a row "strongest" with the Tiers button and see where everyone puts each type.

Which MBTI type is most attractive?+

There's no reliable answer. The polls floating around online are small and self-selected, and attraction depends far more on the actual person than on four letters. It does make a good prompt for this board, though: rank the 16 by who you'd date, send the share link around, and compare notes.

Which MBTI is most popular?+

It depends whether you mean common or well liked. By headcount, US estimates usually put ISFJ or ESFJ near the top and INFJ near the bottom. For well liked, there's no survey worth trusting — online favorites shift with whatever show or creator is talking about types that month, which is half the reason people make these boards.

How many MBTI types are there?+

Sixteen. Each type combines one letter from four pairs — I or E, S or N, T or F, J or P — and two choices in four slots gives 2×2×2×2 = 16. All of them are loaded here: INTJ, INTP, ENTJ, ENTP, INFJ, INFP, ENFJ, ENFP, ISTJ, ISFJ, ESTJ, ESFJ, ISTP, ISFP, ESTP and ESFP.

How would you rank the MBTI types from best to worst?+

Pick one question first, because "best" means nothing on its own — best friend, best coworker and best villain produce three very different boards. If you can't decide, hit ⚔ Rank 1v1. It pits the 16 types against each other in quick pairs and builds an order from your picks, which you can then nudge by hand.
