S+Tier, Explained

The S+ tier class features characters capable of shifting the outcome of any match as well as of dominating any matchup if played right on their respective roles, like Android 21 [Lab Coat], which is the game’s best overall character, SSB Gogeta and Vegito (SSGSS). They are also characters capable of excelling without the need for specific teams, although using it will potentialize them even further.

S-Tier, Explained

On S, we put characters who are capable of excelling by themselves but who only truly excel when paired with certain teams or matchups. In the right hands or compositions, they are also able to directly challenge some S+ tier characters. The biggest example of the tier lies in Goku (Base), who is a top-tier Anchor thanks to his damage output and KaioKen mechanic, but also someone who needs a team capable of keeping targets open for damage for periods long enough for him to efficiently support/deal damage with his Super Spirit Bomb.

A-Tier, Explained

On A we have characters who can perform their roles extremely well in certain situations as well as excel in them when fully mastered, like Videl and Master Roshi. The class also features a selection of units, who, while still great, were surpassed by some of the game’s new additions as well as hindered thought nerfs, like Bardock and Goku GT.

B-Tier, Explained

Although good in their own right, B-Tier features characters are unable to excel unless put in ideal scenarios. The tier also features those whose unique mechanics, although handy, do not justify the pick in most scenarios. The sole exception to the rule is Ginyu, who can propel himself all the way to S-tier in some matchups through his Body Change mechanic.

C-Tier, Explained

C-Tier features those who are at a disadvantage in any matchup and are unable of shining in any role, be it Mid, Anchor, or Point. Currently, the only C-tiers in the game are Yamcha and Freeza. I’d bet you never thought you’ll see these two together, right?
