One More Night Tier Lists
Rank threats and upgrades for early nights, co-op stacks, and finale prep.
How to read these tiers
One More Night does not have a single PvP meta. Tiers here measure run risk: how likely a pick is to spiral when AI climbs each night. A threat that is fine on Night 1 can be S-tier dangerous by Night 14 if you never remove pressure.
Use the detailed pages:
- Threat Tier List — voting priority for beginners through late game
- Upgrades Tier List — shop buys, tarot cards, and shadow deal caution
Threat tier philosophy
S — Run defining danger: demands constant attention or hard counters (examples players flag: Fran-style perpetual door pressure, Myself finale, stacked Rush + door duos).
A — High respect: manageable with discipline but punish co-op miscommunication.
B — Teachable: good learning tools if you already know Controls.
C — Situational: fine early, or soft when solo adjustments apply.
D — Filler / meme: still deadly if ignored, but usually lower priority than camera+door stacks.
Exact placement shifts after patches — recheck Updates when a threat gets retuned.
Upgrade tier philosophy
Early shops should buy survivability (power, stamina, move speed) before novelty tarot. High-risk shadow deals that spend max lives can enable flashy runs and also brick them. Read the upgrades page before gambling your last life.
How lobbies should use the list
- Before Night 1, agree on a “no S-tier pile” rule for pubs.
- Ban combinations your team failed last run.
- In Big Lobby, treat A-tier like S-tier because aggression multipliers exist.
- In Sandbox, deliberately pick S-tier to practice — see Sandbox Challenges.
Linking tiers to endings
Route locks can force dangerous boards (Jordi locks on PtWP, Puppet locks on False Savior). When you choose an ending, accept that your tier list becomes constrained. Bring the right starter item and power plan from Office Power.

Tiers are advice, not law. If your duo has cracked a “bad” threat, promote it in your personal notes — then still warn random elevators.
Updating your personal meta
After each wipe, move one threat up a rank in your notes if it caused the death, even if the public list still calls it B-tier. Public tiers optimize for average pubs; your duo might have a blind spot.
Coaching new players with tiers
Instead of saying “that threat is bad,” say “that threat taxes the same tool we already overloaded.” Tie ranks back to Threats Overview roles so votes become systems talk, not superstition.
When to ignore the list
Achievement hunting, sandbox memes, and creator challenges all justify S-tier piles. Just announce the intent in lobby chat so nobody thinks they queued a chill TitN clear.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers for One More Night survivors.
Is this an official balance tier list?
No. It is a fan difficulty guide based on community clears and common wipe causes.
Do tiers change in Solo?
Yes. Solo softens some threats. Still respect anything that hard-locks a door or camera forever.
