Counterside Tier List with class, name and tiers, check rankings of all characters in gameplay. Counter Side is a 2D tower defense gacha game developed by Studiobside Co. Ltd. You take the role of being a CEO and assign Counters, Soldiers and Mechs to fight against unknown monsters in order to protect the world. The game was first released in South Korea in 2019, but since then it was released in other regions: TW, CN, SEA, JPN and most recently, Global.
You assemble a deck of 8 units, each assigned with a deployment cost and march into the battlefield. To address the dilemma of picking the right characters, we have decided to create a Counter: Side tier list. The striking feature is the inclusion of infantry units as well as war vehicles (including Titanfall-esque robots) as playable characters.
They are not limited to a small number, but a whole faction exists. For fans of mobile gacha games or military enthusiasts, this will be a breath of fresh air when the genre mostly offers waifus or husbandos. There’s more to the characters themselves as a majority of them have a niche and are bound to be useful in some way (barring a few really bad apples, like PZH Mobile Gun.)
Counterside Tier List 2023
Counterside Tier list is primarily made on the basis of 3 factions as described here, check ranking of characters in all the 3 factions.
- Mech faction primarily relies on their high bulk or high firepower to compensate for their lack of ultimate skills or special skills. Currently, mech faction is at its lowest low.
- Soldier faction primarily operate by the motto of “strength in power”, while frail as an individual unit, they swarm enemies with high firepower and capable of cushioning hit counts.
- Counter faction (titular) are superhumans who gained a myriad of special and ultimate skills to fight against threat of humanity – Corrupted objects. The most versatile and dominant group of the trio.
