Surviving and triumphing in Zero's death game within *Tribe Nine* hinges on assembling a formidable team of allies. With a vast array of characters to choose from, selecting the top-tier units is crucial for success. Below, we delve into the best characters you should aim to recruit to bolster your squad in *Tribe Nine*.
Best Characters in Tribe Nine
Here is the tier list for all Tribe Nine characters:
| Tier | Character |
|---|---|
| S | Tsuruko Semba, Miu Jujo, Q, Minami Oi, Enoki Yukigaya |
| A | Eiji Todoroki, Jio Takinogawa, Yo Kuronaka |
| B | Roku Saigo, Koishi Kohinata |
| C | Yutaka Gotanda, Tsuki Iroha, Hyakuichitaro Senju |
S-Tier
The elite echelon of *Tribe Nine* is dominated by five S-tier characters, with Tsuruko Semba standing out as the cream of the crop. As a versatile support character, Tsuruko can not only deal damage but also enhance your team's capabilities with her ultimate skill, Invigorating Surge, which applies the Turning Tides buff to the entire party while simultaneously attacking foes. Her seamless movement makes her an effective damage dealer as well.
Miu Jujo is another top-tier Attacker known for her powerful abilities. Her unique skill allows her to place Luminous Crystals on the battlefield, inflicting damage over time (DoT) to enemies within their range. With her high speed and ability to dodge boss attacks, Miu is an ideal choice for dealing substantial damage.
Q, a Tank unit, excels with his high Break Ability and potent attack skills. His ability to accumulate Fighting Will stacks, which he can unleash to boost his damage, makes him an excellent partner for Tsuruko and an Attacker.
Despite being a 2-Star unit, Minami Oi is an exceptional healer. Her drone companion toggles between healing and aggressive modes, offering both support and additional damage. Though her damage output isn't the highest, her ranged attacks and ease of use make her valuable, especially for beginners.
Enoki Yukigaya, another Attacker, gains Heat stacks through combos and counterattacks, enabling her to unleash a devastating special skill on enemies once enough Heat is accumulated.

A-Tier
Eiji Todoroki, an A-tier Attacker, combines strong attack skills with sustain capabilities. His skill, Brilliant Me!, reduces incoming damage by 25% when My Turn to Shine! is active, making him resilient during crucial moments.
Jio Takinogawa, a reliable Tank, can taunt enemies and reduce damage taken, though his lower damage output places him below the S-tier. He's a solid option, particularly for new players looking for a sturdy defender.
Yo Kuronaka, the protagonist, offers a high Break Ability, though his somewhat clunky moveset can be a hindrance. While his damage isn't on par with S-tier units, he remains a viable choice for those willing to invest in his development.
B-Tier
Roku Saigo and Koishi Kohinata fall into the B-tier. Roku, a Fighter, delivers medium damage but lacks standout abilities. Koishi, a free Healer you receive at the start, is a decent support for beginners but should be replaced with a stronger Healer when possible.
C-Tier
The C-tier characters, Yutaka Gotanda, Tsuki Iroha, and Hyakuichitaro Senju, may have their uses in the early to mid-game but lack the prowess needed for endgame challenges. While Tsuki Iroha is given for free, investing in Koishi Kohinata is advisable. Yutaka Gotanda serves as a passable Tank, and Hyakuichitaro Senju offers average damage dealing capabilities.
This comprehensive guide covers the top characters in *Tribe Nine*. Keep in mind that this tier list is subject to change with the introduction of new characters. Always consider your personal playstyle and preferences when pulling for new units.
