Now, without further delay, here is the Fanbyte tier list for Civ 5 as of February 2020. The best civs are in the Deity category, followed by Immortal, Emperor, King, Prince, Warlord, Chieftain, and finally Settler. The accepted parlance for a Civ tier list is to organize each civilization into categories named after the game’s difficulties. With Firaxis predominantly focused on Civilization 6 at this point, it’s fairly safe to consider this a final, definitive ranking of all the leaders in Civ 5. This list takes into consideration vanilla Civ 5, as well as its two expansions, Gods and Kings and Brave New World. To that end, we’ve put together a tier list to help you decide which one to pick for your next game. While most leaders can competently pursue any of these conditions, not are created equal.

Each civ and leader favors at least one of the four different paths to victory (domination, science, diplomacy, and culture). With over 40 different civilizations to play, Civ 5 is a massively replayable 4X strategy experience.
