S-Tier

In *Tribe Nine*, the elite S-tier includes five formidable characters. Tsuruko Semba stands out as the pinnacle of this group, excelling as a versatile support character who not only deals damage but also enhances her team's performance. Her ultimate skill, Invigorating Surge, empowers the entire party with the Turning Tides buff while simultaneously attacking foes. Her fluid movement makes her an effective damage dealer as well, offering a dual role in your team.
Miu Jujo, another S-tier gem, specializes in attack with her ability to place Luminous Crystals on the battlefield. These crystals inflict damage over time (DoT) to enemies in their vicinity. Her high speed and evasion capabilities make her an ideal choice for players seeking a potent damage dealer capable of dodging boss attacks.
Q, a tank with a high Break Ability, complements his defensive role with strong attack skills. His unique mechanic involves accumulating stacks of Fighting Will, which he can unleash to significantly boost his damage output. Pairing him with Tsuruko Semba and an Attacker can lead to devastating results.
Despite being a 2-Star unit, Minami Oi shines as an exceptional healer. Her companion drone switches between healing and aggressive modes, providing both support and additional damage. This makes her an invaluable hybrid DPS, particularly beneficial for players new to the game due to her ranged attacks and ease of use.
Enoki Yukigaya rounds out the S-tier as a formidable attacker. Her ability to accumulate Heat through combos and counterattacks allows her to unleash devastating special skills, making her a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield.

A-Tier

Eiji Todoroki, an A-tier attacker, brings not only powerful attack skills to the table but also sustain abilities. His Brilliant Me! skill reduces damage taken by 25% when My Turn to Shine! is active, making him a resilient choice under enemy fire.
For those in need of a solid tank, Jio Takinogawa is a reliable option. While he can taunt enemies and reduce incoming damage, his damage output is somewhat limited, positioning him below the S-tier. Nonetheless, he's a great choice, especially for beginners.
Yo Kuronaka, the protagonist, offers a high Break Ability, which is useful in combat. However, his awkward moveset and lower damage output compared to S-tier units make him a decent but not top-tier pick. Still, he's worth considering for players interested in developing him.
B-Tier

Roku Saigo and Koishi Kohinata occupy the B-tier. Roku, a fighter with medium damage output, lacks the standout abilities to make him exceptional. Koishi, a free healer available from the start, serves as a decent support for new players, but upgrading to a stronger healer is advisable when possible.
C-Tier

The C-tier includes Yutaka Gotanda, Tsuki Iroha, and Hyakuichitaro Senju. While not entirely unusable, these characters lack the standout abilities needed for endgame success. Tsuki Iroha is a free unit, but investing in Koishi Kohinata is recommended. Yutaka Gotanda functions as a passable tank, and Hyakuichitaro Senju as an average damage dealer.
This guide covers the best characters in *Tribe Nine*. Keep in mind that as new characters are introduced, the tier list may evolve. It's wise to consider your personal playstyle when making your selections.
