Withour MCoC tier list,we’ve gone to war with the best of the best, just so we can tell you what champions are likely to stand victorious, and who’s about as useful as a banana in a shootout. Some of these characters are fan-favourites, such as Spider-Man, Wolverine, and Star-Lord, while others, such as Venom the Duck, are a little more obscure, but that doesn’t mean the ones you haven’t heard of don’t rank well in our Marvel Contest of Champions tier list.
