Kingdom Rush best hero for each game

Kingdom Rush best hero for each game
Since the first of the
Kingdom Rush
games, heroes have been a critical mechanic. Though you can only have one hero on the field at a time, they can prove to be essential in turning the tide of battle. They act as special melee units that can be directed all over the field to lend their strength and support wherever you need them. Each game has many heroes to choose from with varying abilities and stats. You’ll only receive a handful of heroes through progression with most of them being in-game purchases.

  • Here are the best towers in Kingdom Rush Vengeance

As a seasoned gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that these character descriptions and rankings for Kingdom Rush Alliance have truly piqued my interest. I remember the days when I would spend countless hours strategizing and battling my way through waves of enemies in the original Kingdom Rush.


As you advance through various missions, you’ll find an array of heroes at your disposal, but during each battle, you can only deploy one hero. You can adjust the layout of your towers to suit your chosen hero. Similar to towers, heroes possess both passive and active skills, with the latter having a cooldown period before reuse. Between missions, you can purchase upgrades that affect all of your heroes collectively. In combat, your heroes will sustain damage but heal over time. When a hero is defeated, they’ll automatically respawn after a certain duration.

In every adventure I embark on within this captivating world, I encounter an array of thirteen to fourteen distinct heroes, each boasting their own unique abilities. Here’s a rundown of these warriors, arranged according to their destructive power, with the top trio spotlighted for each installment:

Ingvar Bearclaw

When you’ve got the option of literal bear strength to deploy, it only makes sense to do so. That’s why Ingvar Bearclaw stands above the other heroes with such bulk and strength. His high attack power and health allow you to plop him down into the middle of any battle to deal some serious damage. Though he has no ranged attacks, he can summon reinforcements with Ancestor Call and turn into a stat-empowered bear after his health drops below 60 percent.

Elora Wintersong

Of all the seasons to control, Elora Wintersong proves that winter is the most devastating. Being a magic user, she focuses on dishing out lots of damage from a distance. She can also get around the field in no time with her very high speed. Though she doesn’t have the most health, she can evade damage easily. With Permafrost and Ice Storm, surrounding enemies will be ripe for the picking from her and your forces.

Oni

From Japanese mythology comes the vicious demon spirit known as Oni. Another melee attacker, Oni uses his dual blades to tear through enemy units rapidly. He has a high enough speed for crossing the battlefield swiftly and can take a lot of punishment with all of his health and decent armor. Both of his abilities, Sword Torment and Death Strike, hit hard and ignore all resistances and armor when landing.

Now that we are done with the best heroes for Kingdom Rush, let’s check the Frontiers!

Khaz, the Warlord

Bulls can charge into battle when provoked and Kahz knows how to use this to deadly effect. A true warrior, his good chunk of health allows him to tank a lot of hits while also drawing from his armor. He’s one of the highest damaging heroes on the roster and has a pretty decent recovery rate. His key abilities, Bull Rush and Doom Spin, let him do solid damage to multiple foes while Roar of Fury boosts the power of nearby towers.

Nivus, the Grand Wizard

Magic is powerful so it’s good to have an experienced Wizard, like Nivus, who knows how to use it. This allows him to use his arcane abilities to dish out good damage from range while also keeping himself safe. Though he doesn’t have a lot of health, he can recover moderately quickly to stay in the fight. He has abilities to boost his own attack power while Disintegrate allows him to instantly eliminate a group of enemies with less than 480 health total.

Captain Blackthorne, the Corsair

Pirates are made for fighting and Captain Blackthorne is a leader among them. With both a sword and a pistol, he’s able to do good damage up close and from afar. He has good health and a fast recovery rate, which makes up for his lack of armor. To go along with his piracy, Blackthorne has a mixed bag of abilities to boost himself, rewards, and to let him do things like summon a Kraken to the field.

Wilbur, the Inventor

Every army needs new innovations and the best ones come from the dwarven mind of Wilbur. With his gyrocopter, Wilbur can easily fly over the field and has great attack range. His vehicle also gives him some heartiness despite not having any armor. From the skies, Wilbur can do high damage with his ranged attacks. His abilities are meant for an ordinance with M.A.D. Missiles and Boom Box MK. dealing lots of explosive damage.

Bravebark, the Ent Lord

Ents have a reputation in fantasy for being old and strong, which is what Bravebark certainly embodies. Not only does his bark give him natural armor protection, he has some of the highest health of all the heroes. He hits slow, but he hits hard and is able to strike multiple enemies with his size. He does a lot of area damage with abilities like Rootspikes and Nature’s Wrath while he also has the ability to warp.

Vez’nan, the Dark Wizard

Before becoming the main villain of the series, Vez’nan was a magic-user for hire. His dark powers allow him to instantly teleport around the field as needed. He has health on the lower side but his movement and ranged attacks keep him safe. He does some good damage with his powers and abilities that offer a variety of effects. He can trap enemies with Magic Shackles, explode them with Arcane Nova, and summon a demon with Dark Pact.

Jigou, the Unstoppable Beast

The most terrifying creatures are the ones that have no fear and Jigou is one of them. This giant yeti-like beast has a lot of health and a bit of natural armor, making him bulky. You can put him right in the middle of an army and he’ll recover fast from any scrape. He’s a melee fighter that hits hard and his abilities give him more options. Ice Ball gives him a ranged attack, Earth Slam, an AoE, and Frozen Breath is excellent for stopping enemies in their tracks.

Murglun, the Magma Dragon

Dragons are frequently viewed as destroyers and Murglun is pure destruction. Being a dragon, she has a lot of health that can be boosted and she also has natural armor from her scales. She can also fly to deal damage from above and get around easily. She can easily melt through enemy health with her basic attacks. Her ability Tar Maker boosts nearby tower damage, while Eruption can insta-kill a target, and Volcanic Barrage can devastate the field.

Doom Tank SG-11, the Siege Tank

Sometimes the best strengths are the artificial ones such as those of the Doom Tank. Though it has a driver, the tank is the star with some decent armor and high recovery. Though not having the highest amount of health, it compensates with its attack range and the ability to summon units to the field. It can also launch missiles with Heat Missiles and use a flamethrower from its Scorching Cannon.

Kosmyr

Kosmyr is overall the best hero currently in Kingdom Rush Alliance as he’s pretty much amazing for every game. He has very high damage that can instantly kill the enemies, an AoE skill that can stun for 2 seconds, and a super ultimate which summons 4 crystals that deal true damage. So, yeah, top-rank hero.

Lumenir

Lumenir is arguably the best hero in the game. It’s a toss-up between Lumenir and Kosmyr, to be honest. As a support, Lumenir is pretty amazing. His kit offers a lot of damage, and crowd control in the form of stun, and can also buff allied units.

Grimson

Grimson is overall a good solid hero. He deals a good amount of damage (AoE), has high move speed, and can even take down flying units. That said, he’s kinda vulnerable. You’d think that his skill “Inner Beast” would be good enough to sustain him but in reality, he struggles against high-damage units.
