Melt All The Ice Classes & Roles Tier List
Melter, scout, and support fantasies ranked for solo clears and full 20-player lobbies.
Classes in a cozy melt sim
Melt All The Ice! ships with Classes and Upgrades in its Roblox tag set, which signals that your avatar is more than a floating hairdryer. Exact class names can rotate as The Frozen Studio patches the game, so this tier list ranks role fantasies—melter, scout, support—rather than locking to a single menu string that might rename overnight.
Use it with the Players / Classes Hub, the tools tier list, and the co-op guide. Server size is 20, so role overlap is common; tiers help you decide what your contribution should be.
Ranking key
| Tier | Meaning for roles |
|---|---|
| S | Highest impact on clear speed or party success when played well |
| A | Strong default picks for most lobbies |
| B | Situational or dependent on specific tools |
| C | Fun novelty or underpowered without heavy investment |
S-Tier — Primary Melter
Fantasy: You are the furnace. Your job is deleting ice volume so rooms become walkable.
- Why S: Directly advances the win condition—melting every last piece and revealing the freeze cause.
- Best tools: A/S heat weapons from the tools tier list
- Upgrade focus: Melt power first, then quality-of-life capacity (upgrades)
- Solo: Still S—solo play is melter play.
- Co-op tip: Call targets so scouts are not opening wings you cannot yet sustain.
If your group only remembers one role, make sure someone is a committed melter.
A-Tier — Path Scout
Fantasy: You find sealed doors, stairwells, and story props buried in ice, then mark them for the melter.
- Why A: Prevents the classic simulator waste of melting decorative walls while the critical corridor stays frozen.
- Best tools: Precision mid/high heaters (A-tier precision band)
- Upgrade focus: Mobility and vision-style perks if your class tree offers them; otherwise light melt power so you are not helpless alone
- Solo: Drops slightly because you must self-melt anyway—still valuable for routing knowledge from the walkthrough
- Co-op tip: Voice or text the next room priority; scouts multiply melter efficiency without needing the absolute best cannon
A-Tier — Team Support
Fantasy: Buffs, shared utility, revive-adjacent help, or economy assistance so melters never stall.
- Why A in full lobbies: 20-player servers create chaos; a support who keeps the economy and positioning stable raises everyone’s effective tier.
- Best tools: Reliable B/A wide tools for emergency clears while focusing on party utility
- Upgrade focus: Class perks that help allies over selfish raw melt—if the tree forces a choice
- Solo: Closer to B, because support value needs teammates
- Co-op tip: Pair with at least one S-tier melter; pure support lobbies clear slowly
B-Tier — Hybrid Flex
Fantasy: Half melter, half scout, swapping jobs as the house opens.
- Why B: Flexible for friend groups of 2–4, but unfocused in pub lobbies where specialists win.
- Best tools: Balanced A-tier workhorses
- When to pick: Small private servers, teaching new players via Getting Started, or when class unlocks are limited
B-Tier — Late Specialist
Fantasy: Shines only after certain rooms unlock or after expensive class upgrades.
- Why B: Strong payoff, weak early. Fine if your friends carry early game; awkward as a first unlock.
- Advice: Progress the story with melter/scout first, then respec or unlock specialists when currency is plentiful.
C-Tier — Novelty / Meme kits
Cosmetic-forward or joke-oriented class choices that look cool in the frozen foyer but lack melt contribution belong in C for serious clears. Play them for screenshots after you have already finished the house once.
Solo priority order
- Melter (S)
- Scout habits even on a melter kit (routing)
- Support trees only if they still boost personal melt
Co-op party templates (server size 20)
Duo
- 1 Melter (S tools) + 1 Scout
Squad (4)
- 2 Melters + 1 Scout + 1 Support
Pub chaos
- Main as Melter or Scout; do not assume randoms will fill support
More hosting and etiquette notes live in co-op.
Class × tool cheat sheet
| Role | Minimum tool band | Ideal tool band |
|---|---|---|
| Melter | A | S |
| Scout | B precision | A precision |
| Support | B | A wide + utility |
| Flex | B/A balanced | A |
Never pair an S-tier role fantasy with a neglected C-tier hairdryer forever—the class identity cannot outskate missing melt power.
How to evaluate a new class after a patch
- Read Updates for perk changes.
- Test clear time on a known early room.
- Ask whether it creates ice progress, information, or team sustain.
- Slot it into S–C using those three verbs.
- Update your personal notes; community hype fades fast.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers for Melt All The Ice players.
What is the best class for beginners?
Start with a melter-style kit so every action thaws ice. Add scout habits as you learn room layouts from the walkthrough.
Do I need a support class in solo?
Usually no. Support shines in multiplayer. Solo players should prioritize melt power and tool tiers.
Can multiple melters work in one server?
Yes—split wings of the house so you are not melting the same wall. Communication matters more than identical classes.
How do classes relate to the hairdryer?
Classes do not replace tools. Even an S-tier melter must climb from the hairdryer toward A/S heaters.
Will class names match this page exactly?
Maybe not after updates. Use the melter / scout / support role framework even if menu labels change.
