How do I make a Cookie Run Kingdom tier list?

Use the tier list maker above. Drag and drop cookies into SS through D tiers, customize labels, and download as PNG. No sign-up is required.

Who is the best cookie in Cookie Run Kingdom right now?

The current source-backed snapshot places Eternal Sugar, Silent Salt, Millennial Tree, White Lily, Sugar Swan, Dark Enchantress, Hollyberry (Aegis), Pure Vanilla, Venom Dough, and Captain Caviar in SS. Check the mode-specific sections before building a team.

Is this Cookie Run Kingdom tier list updated for the current meta?

This page was updated on September 2, 2026 using the latest available official update notes and September community snapshots. Re-check it after a new banner, balance change, Magic Candy, Crystal Jam, or Guild Battle rotation.

Why are some cookies not in the SS–D tables?

The supplied library has 184 images, while the cited community snapshots cover a smaller set of notable cookies. The remaining assets are kept in the maker for personal rankings and later source review instead of being assigned a made-up tier.

Can I use this for Arena and Guild Battle?

Yes. Use the Arena and Guild Battle sections as starting points, then build a separate list for each boss or season because the best cookie can change by context.

Cookie Run Kingdom Tier List + Rankings (Sep 2026)

SS-Tier — Meta-defining picks
Cookie	Role	Why it is here	Best context
Eternal Sugar Cookie	Middle	S+ universal pick: debuff stacking and long-fight scaling define the current snapshot.	Arena + Guild Battle
Silent Salt Cookie	Rear	S+ control and damage hybrid: repeated Silence, immobilization, and petrification pressure carries.	Arena + Guild Battle
Millennial Tree Cookie	Middle	S+ universal support: powerful team buffs anchor the published top Arena composition.	Arena + Guild Battle
White Lily (Dawnbringer) Cookie	Middle	S+ PvE carry: Grass-type area damage and resistance piercing support fast stage clears.	PvE + Arena
Sugar Swan Cookie	Rear	S+ Arena defense piece: the dual-revival identity gives teams extra staying power.	Arena
Dark Enchantress Cookie	Middle	S+ Arena damage core: area burst and a broad debuff package fit the current control meta.	Arena + Guild Battle
Hollyberry (Aegis) Cookie	Front	S+ frontline: the Aegis variant is the published universal tank and damage-absorption anchor.	Arena + PvE
Pure Vanilla Cookie	Middle	S+ sustain support: healing and buffs remain useful across the published major modes.	Arena + PvE
Venom Dough Cookie	Middle	S+ specialist: poison stacking is highlighted as a counter to Red Velvet Dragon damage reflection.	Guild Battle
Captain Caviar Cookie	Front	S+ accessible pick: Mk.2 Magic Candy gives an Epic strong damage and debuff-resistance value.	Arena + Guild Battle

S-Tier — Strong core picks
Cookie	Role	Why it is here	Best context
Burning Spice Cookie	Front	Published S pick: an aggressive frontline option with strong area pressure in PvP and PvE.	Arena + PvE
Black Pearl Cookie	Rear	Published S pick: magic burst remains valuable for Arena pressure and multi-target damage windows.	Arena + Guild Battle
Pastry Cookie	Rear	Published S pick: ranged ricochet damage and attack-speed scaling reward a focused build.	Arena + Guild Battle
Wind Archer Cookie	Rear	Published S pick: fast burst and the featured Trial of Glory role keep this cookie relevant.	Arena + PvE

A-Tier — Reliable specialists
Cookie	Role	Why it is here	Best context
Moonlight Cookie	Rear	Strong outside Silent Salt teams, but the current Arena counter environment limits the ceiling.	Arena
Frost Queen Cookie	Rear	Freeze specialist with a clear team identity, especially when control windows are available.	Arena + Guild Battle
Sea Fairy Cookie	Rear	Water-element specialist with value in the published Machine-God Guild Battle context.	Arena + Guild Battle
Tea Knight Cookie	Front	Solid tank alternative when the top frontline options are unavailable or already committed.	Arena
Espresso Cookie	Rear	Dependable magic ranged damage that remains useful for general PvE progression.	PvE
Eclair Cookie	Front	Accessible Epic with reliable PvE clearing value and a strong return for newer accounts.	PvE
Snow Sugar Cookie	Middle	Healer and Charm utility provide a flexible answer for teams that need sustain and control.	PvE + Arena
Crimson Coral Cookie	Middle	Useful mid-lane burst when the current top three mid-lane slots are unavailable.	Arena
Affogato Cookie	Rear	Curse-stacking magic damage gives this cookie a practical specialist role.	PvE + Guild Battle
Madeleine Cookie	Front	Reliable paladin-style frontline value keeps this accessible tank in the strong-pick band.	Arena
Schwarzwälder Cookie	Front	Summon-based frontline pressure gives the cookie a useful PvE and team-building niche.	PvE
Pom-Pom Dough Cookie	Front	Tank-buffer hybrid utility makes it a useful alternative in teams built around sustained buffs.	Arena
Cotton Cookie	Middle	Sheep summons and support utility remain useful in selected teams despite a narrower niche.	Arena + PvE
Black Raisin Cookie	Rear	Crow-swarm damage gives this cookie a focused Guild Battle use case.	Guild Battle
Rebel Cookie	Front	Anti-debuff frontline utility provides a practical answer to control-heavy matchups.	Arena

B-Tier — Situational options
Cookie	Role	Why it is here	Best context
Latte Cookie	Middle	Crowd control is useful, but longer cooldowns make the cookie less consistent in the current meta.	Arena
Kumiho Cookie	Front	Decent control utility is offset by vulnerability against stronger current teams.	Arena
Twizzly Gummy Cookie	Middle	Anti-shield pressure helps in selected matchups, but the kit gives up defensive value.	Arena
Rye Cookie	Rear	Single-target damage has a harder time competing while area damage dominates many rotations.	Guild Battle
Mango Cookie	Middle	The hybrid kit is enjoyable and usable, but the source snapshot calls it less optimal.	PvE
Purple Yam Cookie	Middle	Supportive frontline utility is helpful in niche builds without broad current demand.	PvE
Lilac Cookie	Flexible	Utility changes by build, so the cookie is more situational than a general core pick.	Arena

C-Tier — Niche or dated picks
Cookie	Role	Why it is here	Best context
Crunchy Chip Cookie	Front	Summons help in PvE, but the published source does not rate the cookie for broad competitive use.	PvE
Pumpkin Pie Cookie	Middle	Temporary allies can help in PvE, while the source notes inconsistency in PvP.	PvE
Chilli Pepper Cookie	Rear	A formerly strong damage option now sits behind newer Epic choices in the source snapshot.	PvE
Raspberry Cookie	Front	Older burst value has less competitive impact against current team compositions.	PvE
Adventurer Cookie	Rear	Quirky utility remains available for early progression but has no current competitive impact.	PvE
Alchemist Cookie	Support	Useful as an early-game option, yet the current source does not find broad competitive demand.	PvE
Onion Cookie	Rear	A personal-favorite option that the source snapshot places outside meaningful competitive use.	PvE
Licorice Cookie	Middle	Summoner utility is now dated compared with the current support and damage roster.	PvE
Fig Cookie	Support	Situational support can work in a narrow team but does not justify broad investment.	PvE
Herb Cookie	Healing	The source snapshot treats this healer as outdated beside newer sustain options.	PvE
Cherry Blossom Cookie	Rear	Older buff support remains functional but has limited reach in the current roster.	PvE

D-Tier — Bench and starter placeholders
Cookie	Role	Why it is here	Best context
Beet Cookie	Rear	Common starter value is useful early, but the source does not recommend competitive investment.	PvE
Strawberry Cookie	Front	A common starter placeholder that is quickly replaced by stronger frontline options.	PvE
Angel Cookie	Healing	A common starter healer with limited value once a developed support roster is available.	PvE
Gumball Cookie	Rear	Early-game damage is serviceable, but the current snapshot places it on the bench.	PvE
Devil Cookie	Rear	Niche burst is unreliable compared with modern damage options in the source snapshot.	PvE
Pancake Cookie	Rear	Niche burst is unreliable and does not justify scarce upgrade resources.	PvE
Knight Cookie	Front	Older team buffs are outclassed by current frontline and support tools.	PvE
Princess Cookie	Front	Older healing utility is not competitive with modern sustain options.	PvE
Clover Cookie	Support	Older healing utility is best treated as an early-game placeholder.	PvE
