Hearthstone Arena Tier List: Best Classes and Cards

Arena is one of Hearthstone's most important game modes if you want to farm Gold and Packs, and today we are bringing you a Tier List and many tips to help your runs. This mode is key to players' progression in both, learning the basic game mechanics and also, if they perform well enough, farming resources to complete their collection.

In this article, we will analyze the different classes' power levels, and show you useful resources to use in the game mode. Are you ready to take your Arena runs to another level with this data-supported Tier List?

Arena is a Hearthstone game mode in which you pick a class and draft your deck one card at a time, from a selection of three options. Then, the action starts, battling against other players in a knock-out-style format with sweet rewards depending on your performance. In Arena knowing Hearthstone’s fundamentals is as important as knowing which the best classes are, so let’s start with the Tier List.

For this Tier List, we will be taking data from two of the best Hearthstone statistic sites: HsReplay and HearthArena.

These Hearthstone Arena Tier Lists are pretty straightforward. The better the win rate or tier, the better chances you will have for an amazing run. However, sometimes you are not offered any of the decent options, and you have to maneuver with an underperforming class. Don’t lose hope you can still have a good run despite missing the best in the Tier List.

If that is the case, try to center your draft face on building a deck that can exploit your class' advantages. For example, if the best class you are offered is Hunter, you should try to lean towards building an aggressive deck and maybe pass on good value cards favoring direct damage or early-game minions. It's not the best scenario, but adapting to what you have, and playing toward that, will help you squeeze in some extra wins.

In the same way that some Heroes are better than others, some cards are way better than the others offered during the draft. Identifying each card's potential is paramount for succeeding despite not getting a good Hero or getting a shot at that 12-win run. Let's talk about Hearthstone Arena Card Tier Lists and the tools you can use to make your life easier.

If you are in doubt about which is the best card to pick, one of the best ways to decide is to see the stats. HsReplay has a Hearthstone Arena Card Tier List full of data that you can use to maximize your deck’s power level.

This list will give you a sense of which cards are the best ones (use Deck Winrate stats) and their popularity (In % of Decks). These are two good indicators you can use to decide which are the better cards. Furthermore, you can use the search tool to turn this Hearthstone Arena Card Tier List into a picking tool. Write the names of the cards you are offered and you will clearly see the difference between them.

These filters are also useful to learn what's more likely to be in your opponent's hand and deck. HsReplay allows you to filter by class, so if you select your opponent's class, you can get a rough estimate of what are the most popular cards you will be facing. This way, you can play a bit around them, estimate when their powerplays could come, and not be crushed by an AoE effect.

One of the most popular Arena tools that have the same Tier List focus is the HearthArena app. This app works similarly to HsReplay, but it has an in-game overlay to help you during the draft. It gives each Hearthstone Arena card a specific Rating in its own data-driven Tier List and displays it during your draft. Moreover, it tells you possible synergies with the rest of your deck and warns you if you are missing any type of card.

You can also access the Hearthstone Arena Card Tier List in the HearthArena app or on their webpage too. On top of that, HearthArena also records your performance so you can track your runs and see how you are doing.

I hope you have enjoyed this Arena Tier List and the extra tips. Stay tuned to Esports.gg for more Hearthstone news and updates. See you next time, in the tavern.
