Use this page as the current-build hub, not a frozen launch snapshot. The goal is to explain who deserves scarce materials first, which roles are safest after launch, and which pages to open when a banner or patch changes your short list.
This page is built for the current live-account phase. We rank characters by account value, role flexibility, setup cost, and how safely they fit into actual post-launch teams. A strong pick is not just damage; it is also consistency, support value, and how easy it is to finish the team around them.

Use this tier list after reading the character page and before committing resources. It works best as a direction check: who deserves priority materials, who is a flexible support, and who is more niche than they first appear.
Reliable core picks with strong carry value, broad team fit, or universal support that stays useful across multiple early-game scenarios.
Strong options that can look excellent with the right partner, element lane, or encounter type, but are slightly harder to slot everywhere.
Situational picks, budget options, or characters that are fine for progression but usually need more help or a narrower setup window.
Start with the unit pages that already have fuller role notes and team context: Diane, King, Tristan, Tioreh, Clotho, Elaine, and Meliodas.
