Fate Grand Order is one of the best-known turn-based RPGs for mobile devices. Millions of people all over the world play it, and this game has a lot of fans.
It’s based on the show Fate/stay the Night, which has a lot of fans. Many people started playing it as a replacement for the anime series. Still, the game’s excellent graphics and deep story quickly hook anyone who plays it.
In this game, you play the role of a Master who calls on Servants to help you fight. In the game, you choose helpers from a pool of characters using gacha.
This is the start of the trouble. As with all games that use gacha, you can call up a lot of different characters, each with its skills and ways to work together.
That’s what makes this game both fun and hard because you will need to find out if the character you summoned is a servant worth investing in or one you should avoid.
Here is where the list of categories comes in. We have put all the five-star figures into tiers so you can decide if you want to get them. Read on to find out more!

About The Game
Fate Grand Order is a free-to-play mobile RPG with asynchronous multiplayer in the Fate Universe (Nasuverse), which has been the setting for many books, movies, and games.
Players take on the role of a Master and can control up to six servants in a party (if they have enough mana to do so) as they follow the main storyline, which includes going back in time to fix problems in the past.
The “Heroic Spirits” that Servants represent are people from history and lore, and each has its class, skills, and stats.
Use the classes’ counter-systems to plan your way to win as you use each class to its fullest, whether it’s a Saber, Lancer, Archer, Rider, Assassin, Berserker, Caster, or even Ruler.
Show your friends your Servants and have your friend’s Leader Servant fight with you.
It has over 350 playable Servant units from the Fate series, other TYPE-MOON works, and many new characters. A weighted lottery chooses most units using in-game cash and small purchases.
The game’s story has been made into comics, movies, and TV shows.
One of the most exciting parts of the game is the servants, famous, infamous, and infamous heroes from all over time, who are put into one of seven classes, with a few exceptions.
From the original game’s characters like Hercules and Kojiro Sasaki to new characters, it’s fun to see what historical figures get in what classes, how powerful they are, and how they’ve been remade for the game.

The Fate Grand Order Tier List
Servants are usually put into groups based on their rarity and class. The rarity of a servant can range from one to five stars.
Higher-tiered Servants are much less common and less likely to be pulled by the frequent summons that players use to get new resources to improve their team makeup.
By design, five-star Servants are more powerful and can reach a higher level without using Grail Ascension (Palingenesis) than lower-rarity Servants.
So, any five-star Servants you have are more likely to be, on average, better purchases in the long run. They are less likely to lose a fight, and even an average five-star Servant will do better than one with a low rate. Below are their classification into tiers:
1. Tier S
We are starting our FGO Tier List with the servants at the game’s top. Their abilities are matched by none, and they are currently dominating the meta.
You have to consider yourself extremely lucky if you manage to summon a character from this tier. If you are that lucky, you should focus on building your team around these servants and getting the best gear for them. You will be glad you did it.
These are the best servants in the game, so focus on getting and improving them first.

2. Tier A
You might think this tier is second-class servants, but you will be wrong. Even though they are not as strong as the S-Tier ones, they can still do the job.
Contrary, they’re some of the best units in the game that many of the highest-ranked people are focusing on. We have them on this tier because they still need this OP characteristic. We wish we had a team full of these servants.

You’ve got to start somewhere, right? This could be what this level is called. You can think of these characters as the beginning of something great.

Conclusion
Sure, you’ve learned from the above list that Fate Grand Order has many playable characters divided into different classes. Some classes have more potential than others.
There is no perfect mix of characters and classes. Instead, trying out different mixtures would help until you find what works.
We suggest that new players choose at least one S-tier Servant so that they know they have some ammo if they need it.
