PVP Mirrors Tier List

A tier list ranking girls based on how well they perform in Mirror Matches.

Magical Girls are evaluated at peak performance:

  • Fully Awakened & Leveled
  • All 4 Memoria slots unlocked
  • MLB Personal Memoria (if relevant)

Thus only currently available 5☆ Awakened Magical Girls are rated here.

If a Magical Girl suffers significantly without 4-slots, it'll be noted in her Tier Explanation.

Best Girl Tier

While Mirror Matches may be less forgiving than PvE Quests, finding a team in which Best Girl triumphs is part of the fun!

Best Girl

In Magia Record, the best Magical Girl will always be your personal favorite.

The developer f4samurai has said on record that all magical girls featured in MagiReco will eventually unleash their full potential. Since everyone can potentially access their 5☆ Awakening and Doppel form, no particular magical girl should suffer from being terribly underpowered.

Tier 1

Top of current meta. These are the strongest Magical Girls available currently on the MagiReco English Server.

Holy Alina

Triple Blast discs and a grass element make her a formidable for in Mirrors. Her connect inflicts a ton of status effects, but isn't guaranteed to stun so be careful.

Strong attack stats and a more offense-oriented connect than her vanilla counterpart. 

 

Her attack type means she has lower defensive stats however. 

Darc

Decently high Attack and Defense, triple Blast discs, Light typing and a good Connect that can be used to buff any magical girl for a turn make her the current strongest magical girl in Mirrors.

As she always deals neutral damage (or double in the case of Dark element opponents), she can easily dominate Mirrors for a long time to come. Very high long-term viability.

Liz Hawkwood

Dark element gives her an advantage over Light types, such as Darc or Ultimate Madoka. Connect is perfect for Mirrors due to high chance of critical hits and guaranteed defense pierce. 

Ashley Taylor

Void element with none of the disadvantages of regular Mitama. 

Strong stats and an improved connect / magia.

Kazumi

Kazumi has strong attack stats as well as a connect that will seriously boost any blast-heavy teams she may be on. Her connect also grants ignore defense so you can take down even tanks with ease. 

Fate T. Harlaown

Super-high Attack, great Connect and a good Magia.

Her only real weakness is her fragility in Mirrors, which means while she can take out an opponent, she can also be taken out fast if the opponent has any Dark girls able to attack before she takes them out.

Tier 2

Otherwise strong Magical Girls, but with exploitable weaknesses.

Alina Gray

Great connect that inflicts multiple status effects and increases attack,  along with two blast and two accele discs make her great for Mirrors. 

 

Her main flaw is a lack of defense meaning low durability. 

Kyoko Sakura

Kyoko's high attack and three Blast discs allow her to dominate in Mirrors.

Her connect strengthens Blast Damage making Kyoko a strong core to build a team around.

Holy Mami

Good disc set that trades an Accele disc for a second Blast disc and a connect that inflicts fog. Strong emphasis on using status effects.

Ren Isuzu

Ren's high attack and offensive connect allow her to perform well in PvP. Few magical girls can hold out against her.

As an enemy, Ren's connect will not be used as efficiently in the hands of AI. 

Konoha Shizumi

Konoha's connect heals your girls and increases attack which is great for mirrors. She also increases the MP gained from accele discs, making her a very versatile character although magia building teams aren't great for Mirrors. . She's a balance type, so her stats aren't as good as others. 

Nanoha Takamachi

Too many good Aqua characters for her to take full effect of her good stats in Mirrors (especially Defense), and her Connect is good, but not amazing.

Tier 3

These Magical Girls are less effective than other 5☆, but can still outperform non-5☆ Awakened Magical Girls in Mirror Matches.

Yachiyo Nanami

Having 3 Blast discs and a great Connect makes Yachiyo Nanami incredibly effective offensively, allowing her to damage multiple enemies. 

As a natural 2*, Yachiyo is easy to max-slot which can give her an advantage over single-slotted 5* girls. 

Tsuruno Yui

With the right memoria combination, it's possible to run Tsuruno solo in Mirrors. If she can survive the first round and has enough MP generating memoria, she can ideally use her magia attack on the second turn which also grants her guaranteed evasion and increased MP for Accele discs. 

 

However, a single unit can be taken down very easily, so be wary. 

Rena Minami
Good connect that grants Attack Up and Chance to Critical along with Accele MP Up. It is hard to gain enough MP for Magia in Mirrors, rendering her triple accele discs and lower defensive stats as less than desirable.
Sayaka Miki

The highest HP currently on NA, and the second highest defense, but relatively weak attack. In combination with her BACCA Discs, this makes her unsuited for Mirrors, with her best use being as an Aqua tank if needed.

Her Connect is also only half-effective in Mirrors, as the Regen will rarely if ever be useful.

Mami Tomoe

Proverbial glass cannon. HP is lower, Defense is low and attack is upper mid-tier.

If you can pull off a Connect, she’ll be able to Bind the opposing team. However, this might make it easier for the opposing team to do a Puella combo.

Mito Aino

Versatile stats means she can be used in a variety of teams. She's best used as a tank so she can sponge up damage from water types. 

Her connect grants provoke, evasion, and critical hits but the evasion isn't guaranteed unless she's 5*, making it a little tricky to use well in mirrors. 

Kirika Kure

Potential long time viability in the meta, but requires 4-slots and strong teammates to truly shine.

In Mirrors, Kirika Kure is among strongest girl on launch, and her tankiness will allow your other girls to stay alive and destroy the enemy team. Pair her with a strong attacker to protect, and she will take all the hits so that the attacker may shine.

 

Tier 4

Relatively weaker magical girls that should only be used if you are lacking options. This may be due to stats, connect ability, or disc pool. 

With maximized awakening, strong memoria, and maximized memoria slots they may still be usable. 

Momoko Togame

Mid range stats overall but unfortunately held back by a triple charge deck.

With an useful Connect, Momoko Togame does well enough in Mirrors but falls off after stronger Magical Girls like Kyoko Sakura are released.

Tsukuyo Amane

Charge discs aren't very useful and Tsukuyo has three of them.

Her connect and magia are also charged focus, making her less than ideal.

Kokoro Awane

Potential long time viability in the meta, but requires 4-slots and strong teammates to truly shine.

In Mirrors, Kokoro Awane has the highest defense of any character with one exception (Mayoi Hachikuji). Pair her with a strong attacker to protect, and she will take all the hits so that the attacker may shine.

Mayu Kozue

As a support type she's not very offense oriented, and her lack of attack and defensive stats means she won't contribute much damage and won't work as a tank. Her connect is magia-oriented, so not much help in Mirrors. 

Suzune Amano

Triple accele isn't very useful when magia damage is nerfed in mirrors. 

Fire element can also be a liability with so many uncapped triple-blast water units. 

Tier 5

Weak magical girls who lack the offensive or defensive capabilities to be useful in Mirrors. They may still be used in Mirrors due to lack of other options, but their utility will be rather limited. Much of it will depend heavily on memoria set-ups if you use them at all.

Hinano Miyako

Low stats all-around, and the poison on Hinano Miyako's Magia/Connect is useful, but not as much as you'd think. 

Her Connect’s Damage Up is still helpful, and her Magia’s guaranteed stun all enemies is very handy, assuming you can pull off a magia attack.

Karin Misono

Triple Accele discs aren't that great in mirrors. 

Good bulk that allows her to work as an off-tank, but she lacks the attack stats to do much and her magia is single target. 

Mitama Yakumo

Her stats make her a decent tank, and her triple accele discs are great for magia building.

But her connect lowers your defense and her magia deals no damage while also cursing Mitama. 

Madoka Kaname

Good HP and decent defense but suffers from the lowest attack of the Natural-4☆s.

At best, Madoka Kaname she can work as a Light tank, but there are other Magical Girls with better defense for tanks.

Her HP/MP Recovery Connect is useful, but becomes less relevant as the meta shifts and Mirrors start to end too quick for Magia/Connect to come into play.
 

Himika Mao

Defense units tend to not have great attack stats, but her connect will grant you endure so that her teammates won't die immediately, but it's use is limited.

 

Fire element is also a bit of a liability in Mirrors
