Roll Your Army Tier Lists
S–D rarity rankings for troops and Brainrots — updated for the current Saturday meta.
Tier lists help Roll Your Army players decide which rolls to keep, equip, or sell without wasting inventory space or wave time. Because Base Guardians! does not publish exact drop weights, this wiki ranks units by rarity band and role rather than inventing specific character names that may not exist in your account. Use the hub below to jump to detailed S through D breakdowns, then cross-check any pull against the players roster pages and relevant guides.
How we rank Roll Your Army units
Every tier placement follows the same criteria:
- Combat value — damage, survivability, and lane coverage during Brainrot waves
- Economy value — passive income when equipped, sell price, and opportunity cost versus a better slot
- Rarity efficiency — how often you realistically pull the band versus how much power it adds
- Update stability — bands that survive Saturday patches better than single units buffed one week and nerfed the next
We use S, A, B, C, and D tiers. S is reserved for the highest rarity bands that define late-game defense or income. D covers starter filler you replace quickly. When UPD 4 or future patches shift balance, revisit the sub-lists before mass-selling duplicates.
Tier list sub-pages
Troops tier list
Combat units you place around your base. Rankings explain which rarity colors belong on choke points, which bands are bench fodder, and when a mid-tier pull still beats a misplaced high-tier unit. Pairs with the base defense guide and beat Brainrot waves guide.
Brainrots tier list
Dual-role collectibles that often drive passive cash. Rankings separate income slots from combat-capable Brainrots and note when code rewards like UPDATE4 outpace early rolls. Pairs with the Brainrot income guide and codes page.
Quick reference: rarity bands
Roll Your Army uses standard gacha-style rarity colors. Exact names on cards vary by update, but bands behave similarly across patches:
| Band | Typical tier | Best use |
|---|---|---|
| Secret / highest tier | S | Late waves, anchor slots, long-term keeps |
| Legendary | A | Strong defense or premium income |
| Epic | B | Mid-game bridge units |
| Rare | C | Early roster filler with niche roles |
| Common / Uncommon | D | Sell or replace after first hour |
Do not chase tier letters without reading the sub-page — a B-tier Epic with the right placement can out-perform an S-tier unit on the wrong tile.
When to trust tier lists versus your roster
Tier lists describe average performance. Your account may pull a high-rarity troop before you unlock Auto Roll or friend luck bonuses. Keep anything that clears your current wave bottleneck, even if the list calls it B-tier, until a same-role upgrade appears.
Conversely, do not hoard low-band duplicates “just in case” once equip slots and placement tiles are full. Cross-check the Luck Planner if you plan a long session — selling fodder funds Lucky Blocks that move you toward higher bands faster.
Staying current after Saturday updates
Base Guardians! updates Roll Your Army every Saturday. Patch notes may buff wave scaling, add new rarity bands, or adjust Brainrot income formulas. After each release:
- Read the Updates hub and the latest patch page such as Update 4.
- Re-run three to five waves with your existing layout.
- Compare new pulls on the troops and Brainrots sub-lists before bulk selling.
Join the official Discord for community testing, but verify claims on your own base — public screenshots often omit Skill Tree levels or luck buffs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about Roll Your Army Roblox.
Why does this tier list avoid specific unit names?
Roll Your Army adds and renames units during Saturday updates. Rarity bands and roles stay useful longer than unverified character lists copied from other games.
What is S tier in Roll Your Army?
S tier covers the highest rarity band — usually Secret or top Mythic equivalents — that anchor late-game defense or premium income slots.
Should I sell D-tier troops immediately?
Sell duplicates once you have same-role coverage and open equip slots. Keep one D-tier substitute until a Rare or Epic replacement clears your current wave.
Do Brainrots use the same tiers as troops?
Letters match, but criteria differ. Brainrot tiers weight passive income and equip efficiency more heavily than lane damage.
How often is the tier list updated?
After major Saturday patches and when codes like UPDATE4 change early-game rewards. Check the Updates hub for patch-specific notes.
