In our Blue Archive tier list, we have ranked all of the characters in the game from best to worst so you know which to use and which to avoid.
Blue Archive is a massive game that can take some time to get used to. There are almost infinite numbers of teams and compositions that can be made of the characters available. Some content in the game is endlessly hard and requires some top-tier characters to carry a team through it.
Thankfully, we've done the research and have created a tier list, listing out the characters from best to worst in our definitive Blue Archive tier list.
Blue Archive Character Tier List
We have ranked all of the Blue Archive characters that start with S-tier and end with F-tier.
S-tier characters are the best of the best and should always be included in your roster if you can. A-tier characters are also solid, and while they may not offer up any secondary effects, they still excel at something over the characters below them.
With B-tier, the characters are average run-of-the-mill choices and are still solid no matter the circumstances. In C-tier, the characters will run the gamut from being niche and may only be used in one type of content like PvP or PvE, etc.
Lastly, F-tier characters are unfortunately the worst of the worst and you should not be using them.
Blue Archive Specials Tier List
The Specials in Blue Archive are some of the most important pieces of any team.
They fall in line in the back row and are going to be the characters who will be healing and throwing out debuffs and important buffs for the entire squad.
To have a solid team across all of the content in the game, it is ideal for you to have at least one B-Tier character to help you push through any content you may come face to face with.
We have placed almost all of the current Buffers in the game in the S-Tier due to them being very important, basically the glue of any team that you may be thinking of building.
Some characters in the S-Tier do the same things as another one, so make sure to read their skills before making a team.
| Tier | Characters |
| S | Ako, Fuuka (New Year), Himari, Shizuko (Swimsuit), Akane (Bunny), Kotama, and Serina |
| A | Fuuka, Hanae, Nodoka (Hot Spring), Saya (Casual), and Sena |
| B | Iroha, Karin, Mashiro (Swimsuit), Saki, and Shizuko |
| C | Chinatsu, Hibiki, and Shimiko |
| F | Airi, Ayane, Hanako, Utaha, and Mashiro |
Blue Archive Strikers Tier List
The Strikers are the four team members who will be boots on the ground when you're playing Blue Archive.
These characters wildly vary in their uses, what weapons they use, and what skills they have.
By and large, though, most Strikers, besides the one in the F-Tier, will let you progress through much of the content in the game.
The S-Tier for Strikers is full of characters who not only put out a lot of damage, but they will also have a secondary effect that can be activated in some way.
Always prioritize the S-Tier you have who are strikers because they can carry you very far without much more investment from your end.
| Tier | Characters |
| S | Azusa, Haruna, Hasumi (Track), Izuna, Izuna (Swimsuit), Michiru, Wakamo, Asuna, Hoshino (Swimsuit), Iori, and Koharu |
| A | Mika, Mimori, Shiroko (Cycling), Utaha (Cheer Squad), Aris, Chinatsu (Hot Spring), Chise, Kokona, Natsu, Tsurugi (Swimsuit), Ui, and Yuuka (Track) |
| B | Akane, Atsuko, Cherino, Hinata, Kazusa, Kotori, and Mari |
| C | Eimi, Haruka, Hifumi, Maki, Neru (Bunny), Yuuka, and Yuzu |
F | Tsubaki |
Now that you know how each character stacks up, it'll be easier for you to decide between who to pick and who not to pick.
