After its release in 2021,Cookie Run Kingdomcontinues to grow in popularity. As the player numbers grow, so do the number of Cookies in the game with the frequent updates from Devsisters. Recent events have brought new Cookies onto the table, and with that comes figuring out where they stand compared to theother Cookies. That’s why we ranked all the Cookies from best to worst in ourCookie Run KingdomTier List.

Cookie Run Kingdomhas several different modes, for which you will need a party of faithful Cookies. However, where some shine, others cannot even survive. Therefore, it is quite difficult to find the strongest characters in the game. But to make your life easier, we made the Tier Lists for each game mode.

Updated July 06, 2025, by Artur Novichenko:This tier list has been updated to include all of the latestCookie Run KingdomCookies to make the tier list relevant. Also, the best meta teams for each mode were added to the guide. Check back later for more updates as new Cookies get released.

IntheCookie Runseries, these Cookies may be cute, but they come from a world full of vast history. These games are filled to the brim with stories and lore, so naturally,Cookie Run Kingdomfollows suit and has a lengthy story mode for players to enjoy. The story mode deals with players exploring parts of the world and beating down enemies, and here are the best Cookies to do that with. Since the Tropical Soda Islands and Tower of Sweet Chaos function in the same way, these Cookies are viable there, as well.

It is worth noting that inCookie Run Kingdomthere is no ideal team with certain characters. Even when playing the same mode, you will have to change characters depending on your opponents. However, you’re able to build a formation based on the roles of the Cookies. In the case of World Exploration, we recommend using the classic balanced formation:

The arena is the game’s PvP mode, and players will encounter stronger,more well-put-together Cookie teamsthe farther in the arena they go. Some Cookies perform better in the arena than they would in the game’s adventure modes. Moon Rabbit Cookie, for instance, heals better against other Cookies than enemies. This tier list also applies to the game’s extra arena mode, Super Mayhem, as fans need to create three arena-like teams for further PvP fights.

As with World Exploration, it’s easier to select a formation for the arena, and then choose from the Cookies available to you. Also, for this mode, you need to choose the play style that suits you best. If you prefer to attack more than defend, then we recommend this formation:

While the game has PvP,Cookie Run Kingdomalso allows players toteam up with friends in their Guildsto take down powerful enemies for rewards. Not many Cookies can take care of these enemies by themselves, but a great team can help a long way in dealing the most damage. These are the Cookies that may help players get the most damage if used correctly.

As for Guild Battle, your team should be focused on survivability and defense. By being on the battlefield long enough, you can earn much more rewards than if you just focus on damage.
