On this page, we present you our Blue Archive tier list! We rank every student in the game so every Sensei knows which student to recruit and whatnot. At the moment, the students are divided into Strikers and Special units. Maybe in the future, we will come up with a different ranking system that will be based on roles.
About Blue Archive
Kivotos is in shambles and the President of the Student Council is nowhere to be found. Before her disappearance, she summoned the chosen one into this world. Sensei, with the help of Arona – the Shittim Chest System Manager, is the only one who can save the Academies now.
As the head of the Schale club, Sensei can recruit a number of available students from the academies to the club, all in an effort to stop the incidents around Kivotos.

Without any further ado, let’s get right into our Blue Archive tier list!
Striker Tier List
Special Tier List
Blue Archive Striker Tier List – S Tier
| Student | Position | Class | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cherino | Middle | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Hoshino (Swimsuit) | Front | Support | ★★★ |
| Iori | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Mika | Front | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Tsubaki | Front | Tank | ★★★ |
S-Tier includes the very best Striker heroes in Blue Archive. These are the students that define the current metagame, the ones you really, really want to have on your team. The reason why they are ranked so high is that they can deal with any type of endgame content with ease. If you have them on your team, consider yourself lucky! Things are much easier for you compared to players who don’t have them.

A-Tier includes various students that are doing very well in the current meta. Obviously, they are not as overpowered as the S-Tier ones, but they are strong enough to hold their own. If you have a good mix of A and S-Tier students on your team, you should be able to deal with most (if not all) content in the game!
Blue Archive Striker Tier List – B Tier
| Student | Position | Class | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maki | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Hifumi | Middle | Support | ★★★ |

| Arisu | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
Students in this tier are somewhat middle of the class. Not too bad, but also not the best. With that said, they do have a place in the current meta-game. The thing is, they are usable only for certain types of content. Of course, you can still use them as complementary pieces, especially in the earlier stages of the game. Try to replace them with better students once you have the chance.

Blue Archive Striker Tier List – C Tier
| Student | Position | Class | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Toki | Middle | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Mina | Middle | Support | ★★★ |
| Serina (Christmas) | Middle | Support | ★★★ |
| Shigure | Middle | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Hibiki (Cheerleader) | Back | Attacker | ★ |
| Noa | Middle | Support | ★★★ |
| Utaha (Cheerleader) | Front | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Saori | Middle | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Wakamo (Swimsuit) | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Izumi (Swimsuit) | Back | Support | ★ |
| Tsurugi (Swimsuit) | Front | Attacker | ★ |
| Yuzu | Middle | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Kayoko | Middle | Support | ★★ |
| Asuna | Middle | Attacker | ★ |
| Kotori | Back | Support | ★ |

| Chise | Middle | Attacker | ★★ |
| Neru | Front | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Hasumi | Back | Attacker | ★★ |
| Pina | Back | Attacker | ★★ |
Some of the C-Tier students definitely missed a few classes. Some of them will have to repeat the class next year. Hopefully, by then they can be useful to Sensei and help him tackle some content. Joking aside, it doesn’t really worth investing in these characters. You can use them only in the early stages of the game, and maybe in a certain type of content occasionally.
Blue Archive Striker Tier List – D Tier
| Student | Position | Class | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shun (Kid) | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Kaho | Middle | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Chise (Swimsuit) | Middle | Support | ★★★ |
| Miyu | Back | Support | ★★★ |
| Tomoe | Back | Support | ★ |
| Kirino | Middle | Support | ★★ |
| Izumi | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Mimori | Middle | Support | ★★★ |
Ok, these students failed every class, that’s why we had to put them in D-Tier. They will have to study extremely hard if they want to become useful sometime in the future again. Use them in the very early stages of the game if you have no other choice. Then simply switch to better students once you can. Obviously, do not invest in them as they are not currently useful in any aspect of the game.
Blue Archive Special Tier List – S Tier
| Student | Position | Class | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fuuka (New Year) | Back | Support | ★★★ |
| Himari | Back | Support | ★★★ |
| Iroha | Back | Tactical | ★★★ |
| Ako | Back | Support | ★★★ |
| Serina | Back | Healer | ★ |
These special students are top of their class. You can use them in any type of content without any problem. If you have any of them, you should use them in your team and obviously invest your resources to make them even stronger.
Blue Archive Special Tier List – A Tier
| Student | Position | Class | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shiroko (Swimsuit) | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Miyu (Swimsuit) | Back | Attacker | ★ |
| Haruka (New Year) | Back | Support | ★★★ |
| Nagisa | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Nodoka (Hot Spring) | Back | Healer | ★★★ |
| Hibiki | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
A-Tier special students can deal with most content, but not exactly everything like S-Tier. Still, these are very good options to use in your team. They definitely worth the investment if you happen to have any of them.
Blue Archive Special Tier List – B Tier
| Student | Position | Class | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kotama | Back | Support | ★ |
| Karin | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Yuzu (Maid) | Back | Attacker | ★ |
| Akane (Bunny Girl) | Back | Tactical | ★ |
| Saya (Casual) | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Moe | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Mashiro (Swimsuit) | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Utaha | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Karin | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Shizuko (Swimsuit) | Back | Support | ★ |
| Serika (New Year) | Back | Support | ★★★ |
Special B-Tier students are middle of the class. With that said, some of them might be very good for specific types of content. It’s just that they can’t be used to tackle everything Blue Archive has to offer. Be smart about how to use them on your team.

| Hare | Back | Support | ★★ |
| Fuuka | Back | Healer | ★★ |
| Yoshimi | Back | Attacker | ★ |
C-Tier students failed most of their classes. With that said, they can potentially be somewhat useful in certain types of content. For sure you want to replace them as soon as you can with higher-tier students.
Blue Archive Special Tier List – D Tier
| Student | Position | Class | Rarity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kaede | Back | Support | ★★★ |
| Sena | Back | Tactical | ★★★ |
| Nodoka | Back | Support | ★ |
| Ayane | Back | Healer | ★★ |
| Saya | Back | Attacker | ★★★ |
| Juri | Back | Support | ★ |
| Shimiko | Back | Back | ★ |
All of the above students failed every class. Some of them didn’t even attend. So, we had to put them in the lowest tier. Don’t bother with them. Maybe they will receive some type of buff in a future update. Until then, don’t use them unless you have no other option.
That’s all we have at the moment for our Blue Archive tier list! Make sure to check back on this page from time to time as future updates might shift the power rankings. Also, we will add every new character once they have been made available.
