With more than 100's of Gods to play, it becomes increasingly difficult and time-consuming to spot the Gods with a maximum chance of winning a game. However, We developed a tier list of the best Smite Gods available by going through and testing each one of them.

These tier lists are the most useful resources to utilize as it becomes challenging to compare and select from the many Gods available in Smite due to their diverse roles and skills.

What are the best Gods in Smite?

As for the current season, the best God without a doubt has to be Ishtar. With a highly versatile kit combined with high base stats such as high attack speed and base damage, Ishtar steals the spotlight. Sadly, due to a high SPL pick rate, she is bound to be nerfed anytime soon. Other best Gods include the following:

1. Ishtar

2. Cabrakan

3. Thor

4. Baron Samedi

5. Mercury

6. Hercules

7. Susano

8. Mulan

9. Loki

If you are looking to pick up the best God among the many that are present for a specific role in Smite, a tier list can help you compare and choose between them.

Our tier list of the best Gods of the current season

The following variables have been kept in mind while constituting this tier list:

• Role of the Gods

• Base Statistics of Gods

• Damage per second of the Gods

• Skills and Ultimate ability

• Healing (if present)

SS TIER

Most potent Gods of all with the highest probability of winning a match. You are likely to see them in almost every game. These tier Gods are perfectly balanced and excel in every trait. A must-have on your team to improve your rank in competitive matches.

Ishtar	Cabrakan
Thor	Mercury

S TIER

Generally safe to play Gods. They have a good combination of any 2 variables but suffer in another. However, these Gods are some of the easily playable characters with a good ultimate ability and can work in almost any smite season.

Baron Samedi	Loki
Hercules	Susano
Mulan

A Tier

Not so balanced Gods. They have a huge weakness in one of their aspects which can include defense, attack, or movement speed that places them below S Tier Gods. However, like S-tier Gods, they are good at crowd controlling and have other abilities that help them in engaging or disengage from nearby enemies.

Gilgamesh	Kali
Cliodhna	Fenrir
Thanatos	Kuzenbo
Odin	Cerberus
Tsukuyomi	Serqet
Pele	Ao Kuang
Amaterasu

B Tier

This is where an average Smite player falls. These include Gods that are difficult to master but can be one of the best characters if played correctly, especially in competitive play. B-tier Gods usually lack skills that can help them get into or out of a team fight. Also, B-tier Gods are some of the best Gods that have been nerfed because they were broken in the previous smite season.

Khepri	Set
Athena	Geb
Ravana	Bacchus
Nemesis	Atlas
Zhong Qui	Horus
Bastet	Ymir
Tyr	Ne Zha
Bellona	Osiris
Achilles	Erlang Shen

C Tier

Difficult to master Gods that require additional skill but still give fewer payoffs. They are not the type of Gods that you should try if you are a beginner in any smite season. However, in hands of an expert, these can be one of the best Gods too.

Ganesha	Bakasura
Ratatoskr	Ares
Hades	Fafnir
Eset	Xing Tian
Guan Yu	Awilix
Nike	Jormungandr
Camazotz	Hun Batz
Cu Chulain	Artio

D Tier

Contains Gods that have a poor win rate. Very difficult to master with a broken kit. These are not one of the best Gods you could hope to win a match with and shall be avoided especially for beginners.

Ah Puch	Sobek
Apollo	Shiva
Olorun	Heimdallr
Sun Wukong	Sylvannus
Arachne	King Arthur
Cernunnos	Poseidon
Cthulu	Merlin
Terra	He Bo
Chaac

E Tier

Contains Gods that will mostly lose a 1vs1 match with any of the other best Gods available. These have the least win rate and lack in all of the base stats.

Zhong Kui	Ratatoskr
Yu Huang	Hou Yi
Hachiman	Khumbakarna
Xbalanque	Sylvannus
The Morrigan	Yemoja
Ullr	Rama
Skadi	Vulcan
Danzaburo	Vamana
Ra	Ah Muzen Cab

F Tier

Contains Gods that are at the bottom of the God tier list and are not playable characters as they require critical balancing. The odds of winning with them are the least.

Da Ji	Neith
Chiron	Artemis
Aphrodite	Chang’e
Izanami	Charybdis
Anubis	Chernobog
Jing Wei	Raijin
Baba Yaga	Janus
Tiamat	Scylla
Cupid	Discordia
Sol	Nox
Zeus	Medusa
Kukulkan	Nu Wa

Using the Smite Tier List

Choose gods that are mainly in the S tiers, not in the D tier, E tier, or F tier. For example, If your team needs hunter Gods, go for Ishtar. Likewise, for a Warrior God, you can go for Hercules. These best Smite Gods are essential for winning ranked games and are one of the most banned Gods in competitive play. Also, pick the best God according to the class needed from the smite tier list in order to maximize your chances of winning against an enemy God.

Please note that no tier list can be completely perfect. For example, some people would like to place some of the best Gods such as Hercules and Ishtar in C Tier or D Tier. This is because God's base stats are changed almost every season in order to balance them which gives other Gods an advantage over them. Overall, S-tier Gods and SS-tier Smite Gods are the Strongest gods that deal massive damage to the enemy team in the entire game.

That's all about the Smite tier list for the current season. Be sure to give every God a try in practice mode, especially the S-tier one, and master them to increase your probability of winning. Once you get an idea of how to play S tier Gods, you can work on mastering the SS tier Gods.
