COD: Mobile AR tier list - Every assault rifle ranked from best to worst for Season 4

With COD: Mobile Season 4 bringing new maps, modes and a shiny new Battle Pass entitled Spurned & Burned, there's a whole lot of players to dive into. If you want to get ahead of the competition and melt your opponents, you need our Assault Rifle tier list for COD: Mobile Season 4, where we rank every AR from best to worst.

In COD: Mobile Season 4, the developer made changes to several ARs, with the goal of strengthening the range and accuracy for superior combat at the 15 to 30-meter range, as well as improved handling and bullet trajectory. Our Assault Rifle tier list takes all the weapon rebalancing into consideration. 

COD: Mobile Season 4 Assault Rifle tier list 

There's a total of 17 Assault Rifles in COD: Mobile Season 4, since the latest season, as well as the previous one, didn't introduce a new gun in the AR class.

We know that at the start of a new season, things can always get chaotic as players aren't sure which ARs are the best, and which are the worst.

Please note that this tier list is accurate at the launch of COD: Mobile Season 4. 

Description of the tiers

We have opted for a standard five-tier system, S to D.

S-Tier: The absolute best ARs in COD: Mobile Season 4.

A-Tier: With a great loadout these Assault Rifles could go toe-to-toe against the S-Tier.

B-Tier: These ARs are very capable with a great loadout.

C-Tier: This AR tier requires you to run a perfect loadout. Can be used in specific scenarios to great effect but has some downsides as well.

D-Tier: The trash tier. You would be much better off using one of the other ARs in this list.

Tier lists are not an exact science. However, this list does give you a good idea of the power rankings when it comes to Assault Rifles at the start of COD: Mobile Season 4, as we take all the balance changes into consideration. 

CODM AR tier list: Ranked from best to worst

Find all the Assault Rifles in COD: Mobile Season 4 ranked from best to worst below. We start off with the S-tier ARs which can melt opponents in seconds.

Update: This tier list has been updated to include the Holger 26 which was recently added to the game.

S-Tier ARs:

• AK-47
• Man-O-War
• AS VAL
• DH-R

Thanks to some serious buffs to accuracy and close-range combat, the Man-O-War makes its way into the S-Tier ARs for COD: Mobile Season 4, while the Peacekeeper moves down a notch.

A-Tier ARs:

• Peacekeeper MK2
• Type 25
• Holger 26
• HBRa3
• BK57
• AK117

The Type 25, HBRa3, and BK57 got some decent buffs in COD: Mobile Season 4, and with the right attachments, all these A-Tier ARs can compete with the S-Tier.

B-Tier ARs:

• KN-44
• ASM 10
• HVK-30
• LK-24

While the ASM 10 has dropped down a bit in COD: Mobile Season 4, it can still be effective if you pick all the right attachments. The KN-44 also received some nerfs, bringing it down a peg.

C-Tier ARs:

• M4
• FR .556

If you pick the perfect loadouts, the C-Tier Assault Rifles in COD: Mobile Season 4 can still be competitive.

D-Tier ARs:

• M16
• ICR-1

The poor M16 doesn't catch a break in COD: Mobile Season 4, and is joined by the ICR-1. You are better off using one of the other 15 Assault Rifles this season.

So there you have it, all the Assault Rifles in COD: Mobile Season 4 ranked from the very best to the worst, throwaway weapons right now.
