Here's a tier list of 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

Five characters dominate the S-tier in Tribe Nine, with Tsuruko Semba arguably the best. Her support abilities, including the game-changing "Invigorating Surge" ultimate, boost the entire team while dealing significant damage. Her fluid movement makes her a surprisingly effective damage dealer, too.

Miu Jujo, a powerful Attacker, excels with her "Luminous Crystals," inflicting consistent damage over time. Her high speed allows her to easily evade attacks, making her a formidable damage-dealing force.

Q, a Tank, boasts high Break Ability and potent attacks. His "Fighting Will" stacks amplify his damage, synergizing perfectly with Tsuruko Semba and an Attacker.

Minami Oi, despite being a 2-star unit, shines as a hybrid healer/DPS. Her drone seamlessly switches between healing and aggressive modes, providing crucial support and added damage. Her ranged attacks make her accessible to new players.

Enoki Yukigaya, another exceptional Attacker, utilizes "Heat" stacks built through combos and counterattacks to unleash devastating ultimate attacks.

A-Tier

Eiji Todoroki is a strong A-tier Attacker with both offensive and defensive capabilities. His "Brilliant Me!" skill reduces damage taken while "My Turn to Shine!" is active, crucial during enemy focus.

Jio Takinogawa provides reliable tanking, taunting enemies and mitigating damage, though his damage output is lower. He's a solid choice, particularly for beginners.

Yo Kuronaka, the protagonist, offers decent Break Ability, but his less-than-ideal moveset can feel awkward. While his damage isn't top-tier, he remains a viable option.

B-Tier

Roku Saigo and Koishi Kohinata fall into the B-tier. Roku is a competent Fighter with average damage, lacking standout features. Koishi, a free starting Healer, is adequate for early game but should be replaced with a stronger healer when available.

C-Tier

Yutaka Gotanda, Tsuki Iroha, and Hyakuichitaro Senju are usable but lack defining strengths. While helpful in early to mid-game, they may hinder progress in the late game. Tsuki Iroha is free, but Koishi Kohinata is a better early investment. Gotanda is a passable Tank, and Senju offers average damage.

This tier list reflects the current meta; new character releases may necessitate updates. Consider your playstyle when building your team.
