- Characters in SS tier are essentially the future tournament meta team composition. Strongest possible characters to compete for top rankings in all or multiple affinities.
- S Tier includes very strong characters that in some cases are part of the current meta team for one or more affinities, or that used to be meta in their respective affinities or in multiple ones before. They still perform extremely well and can achieve Gold Emblems with relative ease.
- A Tier are characters capable of achieving high damage in their respective affinities, or provide great utilities. Many breakers are here, being good only on their respective tournaments but contributing a lot. Supporters here are highly universal and can replace many higher tiered supporters, but their damage contribution will pale in comparison.
- B Tier includes characters that are still somewhat viable to participate and get decent scores, but are weak to the standard of the competition. Defenders are in this group and many suboptimal damage dealers who can deal decent damage by virtue of having strong bursts and being slow, but cannot catch up to others at the top, and are very gear reliant.
- Any character that is not on the list, it is unviable to compete. Low total damage or poor party contribution. Characters here include pure healers, pure breakers without debuffs, defensive kits and characters that deal primarily AoE damage. Characters with gimmicky conditions are also included here.
