Best Family in Texas Chainsaw Massacre Tier List
| Tiers | Slaughter Family |
| S+ Tier | Sissy |
| S Tier | The Hitchhiker |
| A+ Tier | The Cook |
| A Tier | Johnny |
| B+ Tier | Grandpa (non-playable) |
| B Tier | Leatherface |
S-Tier
- Sissy: Even though Sissy’s ability Bane is one of the best in the game, and she plays similarly to Hitchhiker (being as fast as him), these are not what makes her special. Her main ability is efficiently harvesting blood from victims and buckets around the map for Grandpa. She can quickly bring Grandpa to level 5, and then if you assign someone to protect him, it is an outright game over for any remaining victims.
- The Hitchhiker: Since the days of beta and early access, this macabre artist was the best the game had to offer for family players. Apart from his trap skills, he can constantly follow his victims by easily maneuvering the obstacles that other family members lack. He is the best family member to hunt and pressure victims continuously. Hitchhiker is a must-pick in any match.
A-Tier
- The Cook: One of my personal favorites. What he lacks in his speed due to old age, he adds a lot to the entire family’s skill. His ability to “seek” enemies and reveal them to the entire family is one of the best things in the game. Additionally, he carries three locks, which, if carefully planned, can turn any match into a nightmare for your victims.
- Johnny: Being one of the newest members added to the family along with Sissy, Johnny is a skillful hunter who can track his prey throughout the game. Like other famous asymmetrical survival horror games, he can see the footsteps of the victims and track them to their location depending on how recently the footprint was left behind. Apart from this, he is so young and strong that his attacks will confuse your victims and make the entire game difficult for them if they are not quick on their feet.
B-Tier
- Grandpa: Even though he is part of the game mechanism and an NPC, leveling him up is the best way to pin down the location of any victim who manages to escape other family member’s abilities and stay on the family property. If you can dedicate your players, like Sissy, to solely focus on helping Grandpa, the tables will immediately turn in your favor.
- Leatherface: Although Leatherface represents everything about the franchise and is a compulsory character in each match, many players do not like playing as his character. What he lacks in his speed and maneuverability can be compensated with his chainsaw, But to get the most out of the chainsaw and turn your swings into deadly blows, you have to perfectly time in the chainsaw mini-game. A wrong move and jam up your chainsaw, too. And wanking around with the loud noise of the chainsaw inside the house. But once you put in more hours and nail down his play style, he will easily rank up in the tier list for you. And as he is a “compulsory” pick, you need to start picking Leatherface for yourself to get the best out the game in the long run.
