How it works

How to make a tier list video.

Four steps, about a minute, and nothing to install.

  1. 1

    Add your items

    Type up to 15 items and pick a tier for each. They drop in the order of the table; use the arrows to move one up.

  2. 2

    Name the tiers

    Keep S, A, B, C and D, or use 3 to 6 tiers with words of your own, such as Must try, Fine and Skip. Add a title and a small line above it.

  3. 3

    Set the pace and the look

    Choose the time per item, the drop order and how long the finished list stays on screen. Then pick classic or look-colored tiers, tinted or solid items, and one of six looks.

  4. 4

    Download the MP4

    Press Download. The video is rendered in your browser at 1080p and saved to your device. No account, no watermark.

When a tier list isn’t enough

The free tier list is the starting point.

Here you get a tier list of words on a background. In Rescroll you describe the graphic you actually want, like “rank these five phones as I name each one, with a screenshot of each dropping into the tier I give it”, attach your screenshots or logos, and it's designed from scratch on your own video. Each item lands on the exact word you say, and you change anything by asking in the chat.

The basics

What is a tier list video?

A tier list is a ranking that sorts things into groups, from S at the top down through A, B, C and D, instead of numbering them one by one. A tier list video shows that ranking being filled in, item by item, so the viewer finds out where each one lands as you talk about it.

This maker draws the board for you: a title, rows in the familiar red, orange, yellow and green, and text chips that drop into their tier one after another and land with a small bounce. Rows grow to fit what's in them. It works with words only: there's no image upload, so each item is a short label of up to 24 characters.

Plan the timing around what you'll say. Time per item sets the gap between one chip landing and the next, from 0.3 to 2 seconds, so a slow, talky ranking wants a longer gap than a quick-fire one. Set Drop order to Best last to keep the top tier for the end.

In your editor

Put the tier list on your video.

An MP4 has no transparent background, so the tier list comes ready to key. Set the background to green and remove it with chroma key.

How to add a tier list in CapCut

Download the tier list on a green background. In CapCut, drag it onto the track above your video so it sits on top as an overlay. Select it, open Video → Remove BG → Chroma key, pick the green with the color picker and raise Strength until the background is gone. Menu names move a little between CapCut versions; look for Chroma key.

How to add a tier list in Premiere Pro

Put the tier list on a video track above your footage. From the Effects panel, drag Ultra Key onto it and click the Key Color eyedropper on the green.

How to add a tier list in DaVinci Resolve

Place the tier list on the track above your footage. On the Edit page, open Effects → Open FX, find 3D Keyer under Resolve FX Key and drag it onto the clip, then sample the green in the viewer with the Open FX overlay switched on.

How to add a tier list in Final Cut Pro

Connect the tier list above your footage in the timeline. From the Effects browser, drag the Keyer effect onto it; it finds and removes the green by itself.

Questions

Tier list video: your questions, answered.

How do I make a tier list video?

In the tier list maker at the top of this page, type your items, pick a tier for each, add a title and press Download. You get a 1080p MP4 of the list filling in, one item at a time, made in your browser with no sign-up and no watermark.

Can I add pictures to the tier list?

No. This maker is text only: each item is a chip with up to 24 characters of text, and there's no image upload. Short names read best, such as Pepperoni or Season 3.

How many items and tiers can I have?

Up to 15 items, in 3 to 6 tiers. Items in the same tier sit side by side and wrap onto a new line when a row is full, and the row grows taller to fit them.

Can I rename the tiers?

Yes. Each tier's label can be up to 8 characters, so it can be a letter like S or a word like GOAT, Must try or Skip. The item table's tier picker shows your labels as you type them.

What does S tier mean?

S tier is the top tier, above A: the things you'd put above everything else. Many video games use an S grade the same way, for the very best result.

Can I keep the S tier for the end?

Yes. Set Drop order to Best last and the items drop from the lowest tier up, so the top tier lands last. As listed drops them in the order of the item table instead.

How do I change the order the items appear in?

With Drop order on As listed, items drop in the order of the table. Use the arrow next to an item to move it up the list.

How long is the tier list video?

It depends on the number of items. Each item takes the time per item you set, from 0.3 to 2 seconds, after about a second for the rows to come in, and the finished list rests for up to 5 seconds at the end. Ten items at the default pace make a video of about 7.6 seconds.

Can I change the tier colors?

Yes, two ways. Tier colors on Classic gives the familiar red, orange, yellow and green from top to bottom; Look uses shades of the look you picked, strongest at the top. Items can be Tinted, chips edged in their tier's color, or Solid, filled with it.

Is the tier list maker free?

Yes. It's free to use and free to download, with no account, no email address and no watermark on the video. There's no limit on how many you make.

What format and resolution is the video?

An MP4 with H.264 video, at 1080p in the shape you choose: 1080×1920 (9:16) for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, 1920×1080 (16:9) for YouTube, 1080×1080 (1:1), or 1080×1350 (4:5) for the Instagram feed. You can export at 30 or 60 frames per second.

Can I get the tier list with a transparent background?

MP4 can't store transparency, so the tier list comes ready to key instead. Set the background to green and remove it with chroma key in your editor. Only the tier list is left over your footage.

Is my video uploaded anywhere?

No. The tier list is drawn and encoded on your own device, using your browser's built-in video encoder. Nothing is sent to a server and there's no render queue.

Which browsers does it work in?

It needs a browser that can encode video with the WebCodecs API: current versions of Chrome, Edge and Safari, and Firefox on a computer. If your browser can't, the page tells you before you start.

Can I use the tier list in client work, ads or monetized videos?

Yes. The video you download is yours to use in personal and commercial projects, with no attribution needed.

Can I match my brand, add my logo or change the design?

Not in the free maker, which is deliberately simple. That's what Rescroll's AI motion graphics are for: describe the graphic you want in plain English, attach your logo, fonts or a screenshot of your style, and it's designed from scratch on your own video, placed around you and timed to the word you say. Ask for any change in the chat. It's part of the Pro, Ultimate and Scale plans.
