What are units considered?
IMPORTANT NOTES
- 1% banner units = ~7 stars
- .25% Legends Limited units = ~3 stars
Tier Z
The absolute best Fighters in the game. Zenkais have really changed how the landscape of the game work. Fighters in this Tier not only own an Ability that exerts control over core game systems as well as multiple Teams that work with them, but very high base stats that make them incredibly difficult to deal with on many sides of the field, at any point of the Match.
Stats
Why this Tier?
- He's the second LF unit to get a Zenkai boost, and it's made him the best all-around unit in the game. He brings damage, support, defense, and more or less completely invalidates Regeneration when matched up against them.
- His Zenkai alone has completely revamped the tier list, and shifted the entire meta.
Discussion:
Historically, SP SSJ2 Gohan RED took a bit of time or a dead ally to really get going, but with his Zenkai 7 boost, he can take many fighters out even at the very onset of the match. His Zenkai boost has bolstered basically everything he did exceptionally well in his prime, fixed his problems early on the match and even threw in some support qualities for good measure. Even blue units are not safe from SP SSJ2 Gohan RED.

- His Zenkai 7 boost has made him one of the hardest hitters in the entire game, and fixed his lack of durability.
- Son Family and Saiyan are now some of the better teams in the game thanks to him.
Discussion:
SP SSJ3 Goku PUR was long overdue for a Zenkai boost, and now that it's finally come he's become the diabolical offensive fighter he was in his prime. He and SP SSJ2 Gohan RED have invalidated Regeneration, but these 2 paired together on Son Family can destroy anyone. It’s not just limited to Regeneration. From himself being oppressive to his teams being incredibly powerful, he’s earned the Z Tier spot.

Her Zenkai 7 buff has made her oppressive Offensively.
-
SP Android #18 YEL brings two Blast Arts Cards as a Strike heavy Offense Fighter, but her Extra Move can switch her Blast Arts Cards to Strike Arts Cards.
Discussion:
Her Zenkai 7 update continues the trend of super-charging ancient units with a wide array of Damage buffs. While her Z-Ability still hasn't changed and can't benefit a lot of Android Fighters other than Android #21 variants, it doesn't even hurt the team too much. Her Damage is just way too much to handle. Female Warriors are starting to creep back to relevancy as well thanks to her.

Stats
Why this Tier?
- He’s been Zenkai boosted.
- He’s become a hellacious Offensive force with some decent survivability as well.
Discussion:
Super Gogeta has almost everything a unit would want Offensively. When he comes in, he restores Ki, has a 50% Damage buff, and maybe most importantly: increases his Arts Card draw speed. He does have a bit of “scaling” up to do in the sense that he needs to use Strike or Blast arts cards to get some additional Damage inflicted Buffs, but even before then he’s still phenomenal off the bat.
His Extra Move was among one of the most difficult to use with little incentive to actually use it. After his Zenkai, if he’s able to land his Extra Move he gets a huge Damage inflicted Buff, clears Enemy Attribute Upgrades, and is now finally able to combo off of it.
He and SP SSJ Bardock BLU are finally reunited, and form a deadly duo capable of tearing through anyone, even their respective color disadvantages if the stars align for them.

Stats
Why this Tier?
-
He's received a Zenkai boost, bolstering his stats and giving him some extra solid unique abilities.
-
He's still the engine behind devastating Super Saiyan based teams.
Discussion:
He was pretty significantly held back by his team when his Zenkai first dropped, but now he and SP Super Gogeta RED are back together, and able to rip through most units in the game. He honestly had an argument for S Tier even before Super Gogeta’s Zenkai, as he was a vital part of the Blue-Blue-Purple Team alongside SP SSJ3 Goku PUR and SP Angry Goku BLU. He also had an argument to go from S to Z tier for quite a while, and there seems to be not denying him there either.

Tier S
Not too drastically different from the Fighters in Z Tier, these Fighters have a few minuscule flaws that don’t let them take over the game consistently, or lack proper Tag Support which in turn compromises how well they perform. For the most part, these Fighters are consistently brought into PVP matches on S or Z Tier Teams.
Stats
Why this Tier?
- His Zenkai Boost has made him similar to his prime -- durable to start the match and devastating to end the match.
- He makes a legitimate case for God Ki over SP SSB Vegito BLU.
Discussion:
He operates pretty similar to his release. Granted the landscape of the game is much different, but he's still exceptionally well rounded. He's extremely resilient, hard to catch with his Main Ability recovering his entire Vanish Gauge, his Ultimate Move is devastating, and he's great late game as well.

Stats
Why this Tier?
-
His iconic Special Move - Angry Kamehameha - can inflict some serious, game-changing Damage.
- He Buffs the Super Saiyan Tag at 3 stars, making him extremely powerful on the bench of many Teams on top of his excellent core viability.
Discussion:
SP Angry Goku BLU received a Zenkai 7 Boost, and while he's not FSK Gohan levels good, he's still among the best units in the game. There still seems to be a schism between him and the 3 units in Z Tier when it comes to consistent overall damage, which is why he lands at the top of S Tier
SP SSJ3 Goku PUR, for example, has more consistent damage throughout the entire match whereas SP Angry Goku BLU is slightly slow to start, and really picks up most of his steam when he’s completely last-man standing. By comparison, SP SSJ3 Goku PUR is devastating at any point in the game, and serves as the best offensive pivot in the entire game as well.

Stats
Why this Tier?
- His base form is beyond fragile, so while he’s good Rising Rush bait, he’s a bit underwhelming until that point.
- His transformation after reviving makes him incredibly powerful, and the recent battle changes have made him insufferable to play against due to his sub count reduction/revive mechanic.
Discussion
In the average game, Cell might not seem too effective as the average player might not use him optimally, getting him killed way too early. With the right team around him and a player skilled enough to control the combat loop, his presence alone can be very oppressive.
In base form, he can’t take a hit, but offensively he’s actually pretty serviceable. After transforming, he outputs ridiculous damage. He slots into Regeneration, Future and Android as their primary red.

- His Zenkai Boost kicks SP SSGSS Gogeta YEL off the core of God Ki and Sagas.
- He’s an extremely hard hitting Melee Fighter but serves as a defensive pivot as well.
Discussion
SP SSG Vegeta YEL on release always had a decent toolkit, his real big problem was his very low base stats. His Zenkai boost rectifies that and then some, giving him access to some pulverizing Strike Attack and some nice base Health and Defenses, allowing him to come in as a very reliable Defensive pivot.
He works marvelously with SP Vados GRN due to her healing, seeing as Vegeta works best when he pops into the battlefield with a higher Health ratio than his opponent.

Discussion
Both Rival Universe and especially Pride Troopers have some team issues when it comes to a complete color wheel, but SP Toppo BLU still performs marvelously. On top of the aforementioned qualities, his Ultimate Move also possesses a lock-in, subsequently being able to trap and take out a crucial enemy unit.

Stats
Why this Tier?
- SP Goku Black GRN can transform into Super Saiyan Rose, amplifying his Damage and bolstering his stats altogether, making him very hard to deal with on both sides of the field.
- He’s preferable on the Future core over SP SSGSS Vegeta GRN
Discussion
A lot of his toolkit revolves around his “The Pain Etched in Me” Unique Ability, which restores 10 Ki and gives him 10% damage inflicted when he draws a card. His Extra Move might not seem like much at face value due to it simply “destroying cards and redrawing them”, but due to the aforementioned Unique Ability, it’s currently one of the more effective Extra Moves in the game.
True to the nature of most Transforming units, his base stats are also incredible. This paired with his amazing Unique Abilities makes SP Goku Black GRN a mainstay on Future and a consistent core unit. He's naturally a very hard hitter, but has tons of survivability in his toolkit as well.

At Zenkai Level 7, he Heals for a tremendous amount from his Main Ability and Soft Body Unique Ability, and is generally incredibly hard to take down.
-
His lock-in can potentially be game-changing, especially with the constant cover changing now due to the battle changes.
Discussion
His recent Zenkai Awakening makes him as durable as ever, but Regeneration is still at the mercy of SP SSJ3 Goku PUR and SP SSJ2 Gohan RED. Despite the fact that Son Family is a hard matchup, there are a plethora of powerful Blue fighters running around, and Z7 Good Buu does an excellent job locking them and alleviating a ton of Damage.

His Countdown to Despair Main Ability can swing the tides of a Match by stealing dragon balls from the Enemy and giving them to the Player.
-
His Zenkai 7 makes him among the hardest hitters in the entire game.
Discussion:
He's superior to SP Piccolo YEL on the Regeneration core. He’s strike based, still does great damage, and his Dragon Ball manipulation helps take advantage of one of the more powerful mechanics in the game in Rising Rushes. He’s taken a bit of a fall recently just because SP SSJ2 Gohan RED has gotten more and more effective. SP Piccolo YEL's Zenkai Boost also gives DKP a lot more incentive due to the massive bench buff he receives.

Stats
Why this Tier?
- He’s an absolutely devastating Offensive force that punishes the opponent for just about everything.
- He’s a bit too fragile, and while he pairs nicely with SP SSJ Bardock BLU, SP Angry Goku BLU is still superior on the core of the SSJ Team.
Discussion
He’s being considered at 3 stars on the Tier List. At 6 stars, SP FPSSJ Broly BLU would be approximately 4th or 5th overall in S Tier.
Don’t be discouraged by Broly being “low” S, he just has the unfortunate reality of being behind several transforming units and Zenkai units with astronomically high base stats. At 3 stars, he’s still right up there with the best, and is the clear cut starter on Sagas.
Broly is a diabolical feast or famine kind of Fighter, and games with him can get out of hand very quickly. He has a seemingly endless amount of card draw speed, Blast Armor on everything which is beneficial for keeping him in even when he has no Vanish Gauge, and a devastating Ultimate Move that actually forces switch out if it doesn't kill the enemy, tying into his other Uniques quite nicely.

Tier 1
Fighters that make up for their minuscule or moderately noticeable flaws by being good choices in solid Teams, they still have very strong above average toolkits but are not extremely over the top powerful. These Fighters are a lot more matchup dependent than the Fighters in S Tier, so sometimes they might not see consistent play due to a decent amount of bad matchups.
They are usually part of S or Z Tier teams, so even if a Fighter is a core option on a certain team, if they are not overall good in the Meta they can see a drop to Tier 2. Tier 1 is not a participation medal for being part of a good team, either. If they can't carry their weight, they can still be dropped.
Stats
Why this Tier?
- Unexpectedly, his standalone toolkit is arguably the very best of the units released in this update.
- His Extra Move is ridiculously powerful, as it takes away a Dragon Ball and adds it to his own count, and inflicts Paralysis
Discussion
Frieza and SP FPSSJ Broly BLU are actually pretty close in terms of effectiveness standalone toolkit wise, and regardless of who you value more, neither answer is incorrect. Broly is the devastating glass cannon, whereas Frieza has game-changing utility and is a bit more self-sufficient than Broly.
Frieza can not only dish out great Damage, but indirectly helps his Team via Debuffs and Dragon Ball manipulation. Even if he starts off a PVP Match in a rough spot, his Ultimate Move heals him for a whopping 40% of his Health. His problem is a common one among Lineage of Evil Fighters - their Team is commonly neglected.

- Her stats are quite low, and her survivability is a massive flaw.
Discussion
SP Vados GRN has a wealth of team choices at her disposal, even giving some slight incentive to Green Color Counter teams due to a lot of units who share these colors having a lot of synergy with her.
Her fragility can be a big problem, as her “Brisk Council” requires her to be switched in and out quite often. One mistake can be the end of her or put her teammates at serious risk. All that being said, she has a plethora of other uniques that more than make up for it. There’s a seemingly never-ending debate between her and Beerus on the God Ki core. It looks like she just took the lead due to how well she works with SP SSG Vegeta YEL

Stats
Why this Tier?
- Easy to play, but exceptionally hard to master.
- His auto evade is game-changing in more ways than one, but he’s still susceptible to being hit, and hit VERY hard.
Discussion
He's considered 3 stars for the Tier List. At 6 stars, UI Goku would be mid S Tier.
If played perfectly, SP Ul Goku PUR is arguably the most difficult unit to play against in the game. However, he does have a ridiculously high skill cap. Despite his auto evade being beneficial for stalling, he can still be hit, and therein lies his biggest weakness by far: fragility. It’s not out of the realm of possibility for Goku to die in a single combo, even at neutral. His Extra Move has some of the best effects in the game, but is a “long” animation and can be played around, once again leaving him susceptible to heavy damage.
At 3 stars, it’s hard to say he has the edge over Z7 units, someone like SP Goku Black GRN who has a ton of damage and seemingly endless combo potential at times, or someone like SP Angry Goku BLU who is an accomplice on the very best team in the game in Son Family.

SP SSGSS Vegeta (Future) PUR starts off the game with huge damage potential for the first 50 timer counts, but that meshes together very well with his permanent death Buffs. He also has some Support qualities in his toolkit that function similarly to SP SSGSS Vegeta GRN.
The recent battle changes have made his death buffs that much more crippling, as Rising Rushes are not as easy to get. Vegeta taking away Dragon Balls at a critical point of the match can seal the other players fate.

Discussion
The release of SP Perfect Form Cell (Revived) RED and Zenkai 7 buff for SP Android #18 YEL gave #16 a lot help Team-wise, but nothing else has really come from him. Androids can still dominate because of how strong these 3 are, but could really use new releases to fill out their color wheel.

He’s a serviceable damage dealer, support, and crisis Fighter that not only helps pave the way for SP SSJ2 Gohan RED, but can hold his own in case things go terribly wrong.

We actually value SP Jiren GRN’s individual toolkit higher than SP UI Goku PUR, but Pride Troopers are 3 colors at the moment, leaving them susceptible to being counter-picked. Alternatively, Rival Universe gives him more flexibility, but is still a work in progress. SP Champa YEL gives them a Yellow unlike Pride Troopers, but his dual Blasts have disharmony with what Jiren would like to utilize and vice-versa.

He’s a solid all around Ranged fighter with a debilitating main ability that Debuffs all enemies, but he's pretty bland overall. Due to the aforementioned Gohan and his blase toolkit, he's not expected to age gracefully.

Why this Tier?
- His Zenkai boost gave him a big stat buff and went a long way in terms of rectifying his low Strike Attack.
- His Zenkai was ultimately unnecessary and we still prefer SP Demon King Piccolo YEL on the core
Discussion
It’s unclear why Piccolo was given the Zenkai with much older units around in dire need of one instead, but for what it’s worth it has made him a pretty solid unit once again. The problem is, Regeneration didn’t need a Yellow with DKP around, and it’s incredibly hard to justify a Yellow Color Counter Team at the moment with SP Super Baby 2 BLU having aged significantly and SP Buutenks BLU being mediocre even on release.
A Yellow Yellow Green setup with SP Good Buu GRN is an unconventional alternative, but they are annihilated by SP SSJ2 Gohan RED. There will be some Teams the player comes across where two Yellows will be optimal, but once again, DKP is the core choice otherwise.

He's considered 3 stars for the Tier List. At 6 stars, Vegito Blue would be top of Tier 1, and arguably low S.
SP SSGSS Vegito BLU still does a phenomenal job accelerating Rising Rush, extending Combos, and laying waste to other units with his destructive Ultimate Move, but this recent trend of Zenkai 7 units has put a clear schism between their overall damage, and his.
SP SSJ3 Goku PUR, SP Android #18 YEL, and especially SP SSJ2 Gohan RED are on another level when it comes to damage. These units being bolstered significantly toolkit and stats wise has also made all 3 of them very durable. It's crucial to note that LF units have always been considered ~3 stars for the Tier list.
Alternatively, the recent battle changes made Rising Rush farming significantly harder, Good Buu is finally available to Zenkai 7 boost, and SP SSB Goku BLU is a legitimate alternative to him on God Ki.

- He’s excessively fragile, has no card draw speed, and needs some time to build up his Damage uniques.
Discussion
He’s being considered 3 stars on the Tier List. At 6 stars, SP SSGSS Gogeta YEL would be top of Tier 1.
At 3 stars, he really struggles against some of the better Teams in the game which are filled with Zenkai units with massive base stats. He can’t take a hit, and it takes him a few Combos to really get going. No card draw speed also really hurts a unit like this, who relies on using cards as much/quickly as possible whether it’s via stacking his Unique or eliminating an opposing unit after landing his Extra Move.
His Extra Move can borderline eliminate a lot of opposing units, but one mistake here can be disastrous for him. His Extra Move is too much of a double edged sword, and while it's similar to SP Super Gogeta RED's Extra Move, Super Gogeta can atleast afford to take Damage.

He's considered 3 stars on the Tier List. At 6 stars, Majin Vegeta would still around mid Tier 1.
SP LL Vegeta (Majin) BLU is flat out oppressive in terms of damage at times. His Pride-Staked Assault special move does mind boggling damage, which is amplified significantly by his main ability after transforming into Majin Vegeta.
His Extra Move makes him ridiculously hard to play against as well, as it is an AOE -- similar to SP Omega Shenron RED and SP SSJ Youth Gohan YEL -- but Majin Vegeta draws a random card when he does it too, which can often ensure he can keep his combo going.

SP Bergamo RED toolkit wise seemed like the best of the Trio de Dangers to most, but due to his color and how his toolkit functions, he has some matchup issues. He can only really build up reliably vs Androids due to their lack of a blue. That being said, he’s still a solid option to bring along even against other teams. He and SP Dyspo RED have arguments over each other on the “Rival Universe” or “Universe Survivor Saga” team, so they can share a spot in Tier 1 for the time being.

SP Goku Black GRN presents a horrific matchup for him. He’s common, has a color advantage over him and also innate damage against Hybrid Saiyans. Due to SP Gohan (Adult) BLU being highly recommended to be left off the core when matched up against Goku Black, he’s now a lot more matchup dependent than before and falls to Tier 1.

- He’s hard to pull, SP Super Gogeta RED is better on the core.
- He has excellent Support, Defensive, and Offensive capabilities.
Discussion
He’s basically like EX Whis RED of last year in terms of effectiveness. He gives Fusion Warriors a 10% Damage inflicted Buff (up to 30%) and restores Ki by 20 when switched to standby. He reduces Damage by 70% the first time he’s attacked, which can be deceptively effective if he’s kept on the sideline until the enemy uses a Rising Rush or Ultimate Move. His Extra Move also restores Vanish Gauge by 100% the first time it’s used.

Discussion
With her great Strike Damage, wealth of Tags, excellent synergy with these Tags, excellent base stats, and Extra Move which heals her and permanently stacks Damage inflicted Buffs, she was among the best in the game on release. While she’s still good, Regeneration is going to be taking a bit of a backseat to Teams like Future and whatever team SP SSJ2 Gohan RED finds himself in.

He can work with SP FF Cooler BLU and friends, but he's honestly starting to age. At the 3 stars he's considered for the list, he's still good, but not too impressive either.

His Main Ability provides an extremely dangerous situation if he gains priority, as it increases his Arts Card Draw speed by 2 levels and draws him his brutal Special Move. As an added bonus, he adds a Strike Card to the deck that heals 5% on hit.

Why this Tier?
- He’s one of the better Offensive Ranged Fighters this game will see relative to their release. His Blast Attack Buffs are outstanding and he comes with an innate increased Card Draw speed that cannot be canceled.
- He’s very fragile, and has been replaced on all of his best Teams.

He's still currently a starting core unit on Regeneration, but it's rarely if ever a good idea to even bring him along. He's starting to become downright detrimental to bring into matches consistently.

Tier 1 is no longer a participation medal for being part of a good team. While he's arguably still the starting Red unit on God Ki, he's largely carried by his teammates. He's been on many banners so he's been limit broken quite a bit, but it's still not enough.

SP Super Gogeta GRN starts off the Match with 50% Blast Damage inflicted, then gets some huge Buffs after 40 timer counts. Still, his stats are a bit on the lower side and he’s not overly impressive until 40 timer counts. He does however make a good last-man standing Fighter.
Unfortunately for him, SP SSJ2 Kefla GRN just effortlessly kicked him off the core, making him a secondary choice at best. It seems to be over for him just as soon as it began.

She’s actually a solid core option for Female Warriors, albeit a bit more matchup dependent. SP Android #18 YEL’s Zenkai 7 Buff goes a long way in terms of making Female Warriors more relevant, and EX Videl RED herself is capable of halting #18’s oppressive damage if faced off against her.

Vegeta Family much prefers SP Youth Trunks BLU, but Movies just added SP Super Saiyan Goku (RoC) GRN and SP Turles YEL which helps his viability.
Discussion
He found a somewhat unconventional home in Sagas in his prime, but Sagas fell off and had no releases for quite a while. The aforementioned releases definitely go a long way in helping revive Movies, but they still need a bit more. SP Broly: Cheelai BLU also has a lot of appeal as the primary blue on the team over him, seeing as they actually buff the Tag. They are very susceptible to buff wiping abilities however, so maybe SP Vegeta BLU could be preferable.

SP Boujack PUR was incredibly hard to deal with in his prime, but units in the Meta can actually deal with his iconic Cover much easier now. He actually has a small argument over SP SSJ Vegeta PUR on the core of Sagas.

Discussion
His “You let your guard down” Unique Ability is what makes this Fighter outrageously good. If switched out enough, he provides his Teammates and himself a permanent 40% Damage Buff which cannot be cancelled. His “Resolute Fighting Spirit” gives him plenty of Damage Uniques for himself to ensure he’s not simply a pure Support.

He absolutely annihilates Goku variants, and enables his Teammates to destroy Saiyans with a nice switch-out Damage buff against Saiyans for them.

This in turn does make him a bit situational, but he’s still an excellent primary Red for his Team
Discussion:
SP FP Frieza RED makes PVP matches against Saiyans significantly easier, and with a 50% Strike Buff on entry, can remain relevant even against non-Saiyan Teams. His Transformation does come with a timer, but 45 timer counts is decently long. He has some especially good appeal with SP Youth Goku YEL running around at Zenkai 7. SP FF Cooler BLU at Zenkai 1 accentuates his Damage potential that much more. That being said, even though he's the primary Red for Lineage of Evil, he's still not advisable to bring along too often due to how the Meta does a disservice to him. He'll fall to Tier 2 for now, but maybe only temporarily.
