Changes and Additions in ZZZ 2.1

Yuzuha is an S-Rank Physical Support and control specialist from the Spook Shack faction. As the second limited S-rank support in ZZZ, She is designed specifically for the Disorder system.

Beyond providing universal 1,200 ATK and 15% DMG buffs, she offering team-wide Anomaly / Disorder damage and Anomaly efficiency boosts. And she can also accelerates teammate’s Anomaly buildup, which is important for Anomaly teams.

With these useful buffs, Yuzuha is a premier support pick for any Anomaly DPS.

 

Rankings Explanations

The above tier list is divided into three parts: Main DPS, Stun, and Support:

• Main DPS

In this section you will find a variety of Attack and Anomaly characters. They usually serve as you team’s primary damage dealers. Take down enemies while your other characters offer support through buffs, control, or utility rather than sheer firepower.

• Stun

These characters fulfill the Stun role and boast a high Impact stat, allowing them to rapidly fill an enemy’s Daze bar and bring them to a stunned state.

Stunning enemies is the main source to trigger Chain attacks, one of the game’s core combat mechanics. Nearly every team benefit from including at least one Stun character to set up Chain attacks.

• Support

Agents in this section excel by offering extra DPS, defensive or offensive utility. They also have impactful buffs or debuffs that will enhance your team’s performance in many specific mechanics.

 

Ranking Criteria

	Criteria
T0	They are the most universally powerful characters. They can slot into nearly any team with ease. While each one has an ideal team composition, their kits are so strong that they can replace other characters even if they don’t match the team’s element or faction.
T1	These characters shine brightest in teams built around their Attribute or Faction. While they are among the top performers in their roles, their true potential is only unlocked with the right team setup—making them less flexible, but incredibly strong when used correctly.
T2	Characters in this Tier can still get the job done, but they are generally outclassed by others. This does not make them weak—if you have access to stronger options, you’ll likely get better results with those.
T3	Characters have a major weakness or flaw that makes it difficult to fully leverage their kit. They can still find a niche in higher specific team comps—or shine in endgame plot where their Attribute gives them an edge.
T4	Characters usually are not recommended unless you have no other options. They often suffered from outdated kits, poor scaling, or lacklustre synergy with the current strong characters. They can be used to clear low-difficulty plot.

 

Essential Considerations Before Your Pulls

When pulling characters, it’s important to keep in mind the following factors:

• Fun and Feel: Would you enjoy grinding with an S-Rank character you don’t vibe with, or have a blast playing an A-Rank that clicks with your style? Tier lists don’t measure fun---some top-tier characters just aren’t fun for everyone.
• Style: You're likely to enjoy and perform better with characters whose design and personality align with you. A player who loves a good-looking character will typically end up performing better on it as well.
• Strength: Naturally, some characters deal more damage or offer greater utility under ideal conditions. If you can fully leverage their potential, they can carry you through tough parts of the game with ease.
• Synergies: There are many synergies in the game. Many characters only unlock their full potential by being paired with teammates of the same attributes or faction.

 

Conclusion

The above is the latest character strength ranking for Version 2.1. Hope this helps with your pulling plans!

The 2.1 banners feature the most powerful characters that everyone wants to pull. Yuzuha and Miyabi remain the top priorities while Alice and Yanagi will also be worth considering if you got enough Monochromes.
