Amaterasu is the top reroll target: a tank that survives a fatal hit and charms every attacker. Medusa and Thor are the other two SSR+ Phantoms both sources put at the top.

Girls Echo tier list FAQ
Who is the best Phantom in Girls Echo?
Amaterasu, Thanatos, Thor and Medusa sit at the top of our Girls Echo tier list. Amaterasu, Thanatos, Thor and Medusa are the strongest SSR+ Phantoms. Aries tops the SSR list, with Lilith, Asura, Nezha and Aphrodite close behind. Radiant Star Phantoms count as every element, which is why so many of them rank high.
Who should I reroll for in Girls Echo?
Amaterasu is the top reroll target: a tank that survives a fatal hit and charms every attacker. Medusa and Thor are the other two SSR+ Phantoms both sources put at the top. Also good: Medusa, brings an ally back from a fatal hit; Thor, finishes off the weakest enemy with big crits.
What do the tiers mean?
SS: carries any team and is worth building first. S: excellent, a core pick for most teams. A: strong in the right team or with investment. B: usable, but outclassed by higher tiers for now. C: niche; build only if you like the Phantom. SSR+ and SSR Phantoms are ranked on separate lists: an S tier SSR is not as strong as an S tier SSR+.
How is this tier list made?
We compare the current rankings of 2 established strategy sites (NDLGamer and Thisisgame SEA), all rating the same thing: SSR+ Phantoms, general PvE and PvP; and SSR Phantoms, general PvE and PvP. Each Phantom gets the middle rating of the 2. When the sites disagree by two tiers or more, we show each site's rating instead of hiding it. We re-check after every new Phantom or balance patch.
Why are SSR+ and SSR Phantoms ranked separately?
SSR+ Phantoms are a rarity above SSR and much stronger at the same level, so mixing them would push every SSR to the bottom. Each list ranks Phantoms against their own rarity.
What is Radiant Star?
Radiant Star is a special element: it neither counters nor is countered, and it counts as any element for the team aura bonus (up to +25% Attack and HP with five of one element). That flexibility is why so many top Phantoms are Radiant Star.
Which Phantoms do the sources disagree on?
The sources are two or more tiers apart on Hypnos, First and Miku. Their place on our Girls Echo tier list is the middle rating, and each Phantom's note shows every site's rating.
Why do some Phantoms show a number?
This is an early Girls Echo tier list. Girls Echo is new and only a few sources have ranked it so far, so we rank each Phantom from the sources available, even a single one, instead of leaving it out. The number on a portrait is how many sources rank that Phantom yet. We re-check every few days and move to a full three-source consensus as soon as enough sources exist.
When will this tier list be updated?
It was last checked on Oct 30, 2026, against the launch version on the Global server. The next full check is at the next source check on 3 November, and we also re-check whenever a new Phantom is released. The checked date at the top of the page always shows how current the ranking is.
