To conquer Zero's death game in *Tribe Nine*, assembling a formidable team is crucial. With a plethora of characters to choose from, here's a curated list of the top units you should aim to recruit for your squad.
Best Characters in Tribe Nine
Here's a comprehensive 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
In *Tribe Nine*, five characters stand out as S-tier, with Tsuruko Semba arguably being the best. As a versatile support character, she not only deals damage but also enhances your team with her ultimate skill, Invigorating Surge, which applies the Turning Tides buff to the entire party while attacking enemies. Her fluid movement makes her an excellent choice for both support and damage roles.
Miu Jujo, another S-tier character, excels as an Attacker with her ability to place Luminous Crystals on the battlefield, causing damage over time to enemies within their radius. Her high speed and powerful ultimate make her a top choice for dealing damage while dodging enemy attacks.
Q, a Tank unit, boasts a high Break Ability and strong attack skills. His ability to accumulate Fighting Will stacks, which he can unleash to boost his damage, makes him a valuable asset, especially when paired with Tsuruko Semba and an Attacker.
Despite being a 2-Star unit, Minami Oi is an exceptional healer. Her drone companion switches between healing and aggressive modes, making her a hybrid DPS. Her ranged attacks are particularly beneficial for new players looking to avoid enemy hits.
Enoki Yukigaya, another S-tier Attacker, leverages Heat stacks gained from combos and counterattacks to unleash devastating special skills, making her a formidable force on the battlefield.

A-Tier
Eiji Todoroki, an A-tier Attacker, combines strong attack skills with sustain abilities. His Brilliant Me! skill reduces damage taken by 25% when My Turn to Shine! is active, making him a resilient choice during combat.
For tanking, Jio Takinogawa is a solid option. He can taunt enemies and reduce incoming damage, though his damage output is less impressive. He's particularly useful for beginners.
Yo Kuronaka, the protagonist, offers a high Break Ability but suffers from a somewhat clunky moveset. 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, offers medium damage output but lacks standout abilities. Koishi, a free Healer available at the game's start, is a decent early-game support but should be replaced with a stronger Healer when possible.
C-Tier
Yutaka Gotanda, Tsuki Iroha, and Hyakuichitaro Senju are C-tier characters. While they can be useful in the early to mid-game, their lack of standout abilities may hinder progress in the endgame. Tsuki Iroha is a free unit, but investing in Koishi Kohinata is recommended. Yutaka Gotanda serves as a passable Tank, and Hyakuichitaro Senju is an average damage dealer.
