They’re all S tier S for student bc sensei loves his students

Anyone counts how many time he said "this is where it gets interesting"?

1000 hours of reddit essay DRAMA about this tier list coming soon

now this is where it gets interesting. that was a lot of interesting times

1+ hr content that is more useful than all those trending drama videos

You probably should have added a few tiers, like S+, S, S- and maybe A+, A, A-, since you seemed to be doing that with the character's placement within the tier, anyway. You also had several characters that you wanted to put between tiers, which is a sure sign you should have added a few tiers. Maybe next time!

Never thought Serina was that good, now am gonna build her

I had to watch it 3 times to understand it, since I started yesterday. After getting only seldom and mid characters, and realizing I shouldn't bind account yet. You made me realized that I must pull on this banner until getting something good . I hope to bring some updates soon.

IMO Sakurako is underrated. She has focus fire similar to S.Izumi. Not the best for PvP but I use her a lot. Definitely deserve the A class.

thanks for the tierlist, i haven't played this since this first game released. basically a comeback player and this tierlist helps me a lot. i got S.hanako and shun in the first 10 pull, happy that both of them is a good character Thanks again man

It's kinda crazy how hard Swimsuit Hayako powercreeps just about everyones dps. the fact she can pop her skill off so much makes her very very good.

Great video. Without using a tier list myself, a lot of this list actually matches up with my character usage for PVE and PVP. Essentially use atk/crit rate/crit damage/cost reduction buff chars, with your best dps type char(depending on enemy), and a tank.

This is a great tier list, we just need a S tier in between S+ and A to separate the good units from the great units, especially those who fulfill the same niche for example in Piercing AOE there should be a must build compared to the others. Basically a top tier unit based on attack type AOE/ST and those with other utilities like def down or buffs. Still in 1 hour 24 minutes you summarized it better than I could. :)

Every time Airi is useful the devs buff the bosses she is useful against. Her unique movement speed debuff was legitimately useful to manipulate Binah, for instance, or for making Kuro more susceptible to self-inflicted damage. Things were changed so she no longer was effective.

How dare you put my Hina in C Tier lmao i still use her in every of my comps to this day and i feel like she's much stronger that y'all are saying

as a huge Serika enjoyer, this puts a smile on my face.

I have to say Hina is really strong auto-attacking damage, she should be higher than C. She's a great non skill-use dps if you just need someone to fill a spot that you might not use the skill of

I'm a beginner and i totally amazed by this all explanations or maybe you can call it guide. This video is very worth it to watch if you have a problem with set unit

Bunny Neru placed so low hurts, since she's so amazing in challenge quest speed clears and even PVP (coming from a top 10 regular).

while this is mostly a true tierlist this game is so easy and theres very little reason to seek out the constantly most strong characters unless your goal is to acquire the majority or all students in the first place.

Minori was one of my first units and completely carried me through so many missions. Her huge power and huge area she damaged would allow me to wipe out complete waves which would save me just enough time to finish mission battles. This allowed me you finish missions that I was 20-30 levels under the recommendation which helped skyrocket my cafe rank to max early on which in turn allowed me to level up much faster for a while. While she might not be the best for long term stuff, she greatly helped me level up with extreme speed.

35:54 did you mix up Neru with B. Neru? I thought regular version was a dps, not a tank.

Instructions unclear, now I'm stuck in low level missions

Pleasant surprise Yuuka;s still on the S tier after all this time.

Hina. I think shes should be higher, cos even if shes on standby without using her EX skill she deals a lot of damage more damage than a maxed out Serika.

Personally, going by the way you judge them properly based on their usage, niche and even taking into account for their extra skills, behaviors and weaknesses, you should've put the Tiers that also include the "A-" and "A+" so that you can properly assign their rankings. 'B+' and 'B-' is a bit too much, because they fall into categories of the usual 'A-' here, but you could also just raise the Tier as "SS" and "SSS" in what most tier list are like but other than that, thank you for the video. Very informational.

What that tier list really needs is support for multiple choice. "One of these three characters" is A tier and the ones you don't choose go down to B, but the tier list doesn't support that kind of thing, making it hard to really represent the proper priorities with it.

23:56 Haruka 55:30 Ui 1:14:45 Mika

Find the list mostly agreeable but I struggle to agree that Junko and Shiroko should be in B tier if Serika / Pina / Eimie / a lot of others made it into A. They more than compete with the other red / yellow options in A tier and imo should be either in there competing or a lot of the other chaff in A shouldn't have made it there.

29:38 split second booba

Normal Ui is the last key of meta student I needed, besides S.Shiroko and O.Nodoka (but you can swap her with others), but she didn't came home sadge

Great video, thanks for the time and effort you put into it 🥰

One of Hanako's other annoying traits is that because it's HoT in an area, unless you're fighting a boss or a particularly strong wave of enemies there's a good chance you will only see 1-2 ticks of heal before students just move out of range. While the total healing provided can be really good, its cost plus the likelihood of not getting most of the benefit makes her niche at best for healer. I still really like Iori though it took a little while to comprehend that the small fan area for her skill was for each shot. Sumire's got a similar mechanic on her skill if you're looking for the same basic behavior but with a tankier character. And Iori is one of the few characters I can think of off top of head that Sakura Ayane voices that isn't on the mature side like Aegir from Azur Lane or Yae Sakura from Genshin.

Bro yapping for 1 hour 🥱

Can you prove that Mika is on the S+ tierlist? Try taking him to a Hiero or Kaiten raid

I blame myself for quitting this game many months ago while having mika, s hoshino, ako, iori, hibiki, koharu ✋(im playing it again now)

hello, i'm new to the game, should i pull for tracksuit yuuka for shiro kuro? i'm considering to not pull her, because s. shizuko also can do repositioning, and because my pyro is currently 20k. or does she actually do more than just repositioning, so i really must pull her?

this has helped me so much. i go back to it over and over

As a new/returning player, really appreciated this video! I would like this type of video every 6 months. Great job sir 👍

I noticed you upgraded the equipment for the special students. I thought that was generally a waste and that you only upgrade either their shoes/first slot or the 3rd slot (for healing or crit). Is there a reason to upgrade the 2nd slot which usually HP?

I don't think use "Mid" and "Strong" term is accurate. Each character is strong in their own contents and a must have character for certain boss might be trash for most of the game. You should list them based on how often they used.

I love how after all this time, I still dont have regular Cherino, yet I have her Onsen Version😭

Mika exist All yellow single target burst: forgotten

Naah Miyu has very good damage on bosses. Atleast B tier for sure

knowing this list might get flac. I wish I had this list starting out and saved me resources. especially the 1 stars that are secret 3 stars. I don't need a spread sheet. just an overview what role this unit will have on a team. I will be coming back hear when ever I get a new unit cause this list is so helpful.

Nice to see both of my Wife's variants in the "Strong" tier 💙 Very excited to get myself Track Yuuka soon!!

No one... GuitarRock-This is where getting interesting

There are few things I think is wrong about the tier list: - Moe is better than NY Serika by a long shot, heck I would put NY Serika at C tier because she just sucks - Hibiki get outshined by Minori for most of the case, and both cost the same at base(4 cost vs 4 cost with the option to do 2x more damage by spending 3 more cost)

lol that L2D supercut intro was mad rad my guy

Is Minori really that niche? Maybe I'm still new and casual, but I pulled for her when I just started and severely lacked explosive units. I find her super useful in bounty and mission clearing. Her EX can delete entire mob waves, even at the lowest 4 cost. She's often the one doing the most damage on my teams.

better doing the tierlist each type specialist of their skill tbh cause all character all good but depends the enemy *note : good but not bad* (the tierlist) just suprised u put all hypercarry unit only A tier i was like bruh and u put minori mid she's good and must have for total assault

i'm looking forward for the next video

Hanae Christmas after unique gear apparently is one of absolute top tier units in game and best healer on top. Buffs from unique gear could be most broken so far. Even if you dont use her EX and just use for passive/normal skill she is just absurdally OP. So seeing her in C surprises me. You dont put strongest healer in game in bottom. That being said before unique gear she is pretty weak .

hot to die from alcohol poisoning: take a shot every time he says "now ______ is a really strong character" or "now this is where things get (super) interesting"

Lol. some very stupid takes. you don't even know some meta units or skill of some units. Utaha is S+ tier in Drill for example and S tier in arena. Hina deals 600+% damage with every wave of her Ex. It's almost 2500% damage and she is farmable. if you are old player you could UE50 her already. she is one of the highest AOE dps in the game. you can do many event challenges 5 with her

waiting for the "update in the future" to know where hina dress is on the tier list

26:00 iori. Bitch wont die in the hoshino hard mission. She just move all over the place, does brutal damage even against red students and spawn more "distractions" when at less than 5 HP bars. Will say spawning Utaha's torret on her head mess with her AI so much she will just run to the middle of my group, so they focus on them but also dont attack the grunts, so the spawning ones on top will kill a full HP tank like its nothing, as is the first enemythey all see

Miku is basically just a more well rounded Kotama She heals in an aoe and increases atk while also increasing crit, unfortunately Kotama has a better passive and is less expensive If Miku costed 1 less she’d definitely be way higher Was happily surprised that Tsubaki was so high, i’ve been using her since i started and just thought that she was only as good as she was because i didn’t have any other tanks Though was kinda sad to see Mine so low since her animations look so cool

Thanks for the guide!! You're the goat, man

OMG THANK YOUUU!! 🎉🎉🎉 God bless you for making this video!!!

you put way too many characters in A for me to take this list seriously. you should have had a D tier that way much more characters would appropriately be placed in B.

I am a new player and this has been a very helpful video. Thank you.

Tier list drama😂

thanks for the hard work, very useful

on update video wish you would add category type on each class example class S -> AOE, class S -> support problem is will be harder and longer video hahaha

Sad that I didn't get S Hoshino on S Hanako banner. She's the only one left that I was hoping for to get since I already got Mika and Wakamo.

GR dropping an absolute banger of a video. 🤝

I'm sorry, Hina in C tier?!? The cost can be mitigated with units like Ui, Shun, S.Shiroko and she does immense damage.

I just got Mika s hanako and wakamo in 200 pulls now I know who I should level

Who can tell me how many times he said "This is where it gets super interesting"?

Serika recollection lobby is soooo much better then Shiroko's no fair😒 😂😂😂

Hey nice vid as always ! I pulled 400x on the 6% banner and I still have 56k Pyroxenes. Should I dump it all on the Fest banners ?

Our Princess should be in her own tier. 😂

Why did I wait till the 100 ticket banner dissappeared😮😢next year then

Wtf how did you get all of them 😵‍💫

Man this videos keeps getting very interesting

Mika this, Mika that... GODDAMN IT! Mika ruined EVERYTHING!

huh...never realized how alot of the characters i pulled are....ASS 😭😭😭🙏

take a shot whenever he said this is where it gets interesting

Loved the intro with clips from all the girls l2D!

My Midori is S - She kill on PvP if you increase crit and be lucky to use her skill first

The tier list link is to create and not your final evaluation. Is that what it's meant to be?

I fully believe that Blue Archive has the same boon that Arknights has: The star system is mostly useless in terms of determining character strength. Mostly.

take a shot everytime he says "it gets interesting"

Hello. I just wanted to ask if it okay to invest to Nonomi,Yuuka,Tsubaki and Iori in early game to the end. Those waifus are I only have for now while waiting for Himari and D.hina.

this is for begginers or overall gameplay?

Friend plz make a video the best characters to get in 2024 rerun for the new players

hahahha, im see 3 tier list for 3 month ago, 1 russian and 2 EN. all different

Good video, but you placed hina below, although bunch of chars with high cost in a tier, thats cruel

i have 2 compicated account.1st lack of dealer students but has very good support like himari, kanna and ako. 2nd lack of support student but has very good dealer like hanako (swimsuit) and kaho. pls help what should i choose between them.

Why shiroko mid? Im new bdw

Can I ask kotori cheerleader strong? I don't see her in any tier list. I've searched on google and youtube but still can't find her. I'm just a newbie and can I know if I should invest in her or reroll?

Ako is not only the best support, but also the best girl

Haruna (New Year) not an S, Tsukuyo should be A. Aru not S?

Wow, BA ULTIMATE 2024 TIER LIST! is so great.

Airi is pretty amazing in her own way - Everyone has her - Doesn't require any investment AT ALL to do her job - Can be used to cheese ShiroKuro on insane and above

glad I'm subbed to you

How do I get Yuuka's scientific calculator to Tier 2?
