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 effective damage dealer as well.
Miu Jujo, another S-tier character, excels as an Attacker with her ability to place Luminous Crystals on the battlefield, which inflict damage over time (DoT) to enemies within their radius. Her high speed and powerful ultimate make her an ideal choice for dealing damage while dodging enemy attacks.
Q, a Tank unit, boasts a high Break Ability and strong attack skills. His unique ability to accumulate Fighting Will stacks allows him to boost his damage significantly, making him a great partner for 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, adding extra damage to your team. Her ranged attacks make her particularly user-friendly for new players.
Enoki Yukigaya, another top-tier Attacker, leverages Heat stacks gained from combos and counterattacks to unleash devastating special skills on enemies.

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 enemy focus.
For tanking, Jio Takinogawa is a solid option. He can taunt enemies and reduce incoming damage, though his damage output is less impressive, making him suitable 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 option for those willing to invest in his development.

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 early in the game, is a decent support for new players but should be replaced with a stronger Healer when possible.

Yutaka Gotanda, Tsuki Iroha, and Hyakuichitaro Senju are C-tier characters. While they can be useful in the early to mid-game, they may hinder your progress in the endgame due to their lack of standout abilities. 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.
This guide covers the best characters in Tribe Nine. Keep in mind that this tier list may evolve with new character releases, so consider your personal playstyle when making your selections.
Tribe Nine is now available on Android, iOS, and PC.
