Retro Tower Defense offers players an immersive TD experience in the classic Roblox style. Various noobs and enemies will attack you in the stages, so you’ll need a variety of towers to counter them. However, not all units are equally powerful. To know which ones are worth it, take a look at this Tier List of the best Retro Tower Defense characters.
Not only do all units in this Roblox game have different stats, but they also have different types. This means you’ll need to create different teams to effectively clear stages. Of course, that requires a large collection of units.
Retro Tower Defense Tier List
Despite its classic style, Retro Tower Defense has rather interesting gameplay. Instead of placing all your units along a path, you need to find suitable spots. This is because ranged heroes can only be placed on elevated surfaces, such as cliffs or structures. Meanwhile, melee units can only be placed on the ground. However, your starting units are only good for getting acquainted with the game, and you should replace them as soon as possible.
New heroes in Retro Tower Defense can be summoned in exchange for Tix. One try will cost you 100 Tix, while 10 tries will cost you 1000. In other words, you’ll have to grind quite a bit to earn enough money, especially considering that higher rarity units drop much less frequently:
- Heroic – 0.31%
- Legendary – 2.06%
- Epic – 10.28%
- Rare – 35.97%
- Starter – 51.39%
Luckily, you don’t need the rarest characters to build a powerful team in this Roblox game. Even Epic heroes can perform well in battle. Here are all Retro Tower Defense units from best to worst.

Best Retro Tower Defense Heroes
Among all the heroes in Retro Tower Defense, some stand out for their effectiveness on the battlefield. Even using just one of them, you can easily clear most stages:
- Noli – A must-have if you’re looking for pure DPS.
- Mage – Her AoE attacks are the best of all heroes in this Roblox game, and also deal massive damage.
- Helper Bot – Although useless in open combat, the Bot boosts your towers’ stats and stacks with similar boosts from other players.
