We’ve ranked every tower in Tower Blitz from S-Tier to D-Tier, based on their abilities, upgrade paths, cost, and overall effectiveness. S-Tier towers are top performers that can carry you through even the toughest challenges when used correctly. A-Tier towers are strong but have minor drawbacks that keep them out of the highest rank. B-Tier towers are average—decent, but not essential. C-Tier towers are generally underwhelming, though some players may find niche uses for them. And finally, D-Tier towers are best avoided unless you're playing on Normal difficulty.
