Also top tier: Dialyn, the top Stun agent for attacker and Rupture teams; Velina, a Wind Anomaly agent that fits any Anomaly team.
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 agent. Only the S-rank agents at least one source rates in its top two tiers are listed. Tiers assume M0, rated for Shiyu Defense and Deadly Assault.
How is this tier list made?
We compare the current rankings of 3 established strategy sites (Game8, GameWith and Prydwen), all rating the same thing: current S-rank agents, Shiyu Defense and Deadly Assault. Each agent gets the middle rating of the 3. 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 agent or balance patch.
Why are only 26 agents on this list?
This page tracks the current meta: the S-rank agents at least one of our three sources rates in its top two tiers. Older agents still clear content, but the sources rank them below these.
Which agents do the sources disagree on?
The sources are two or more tiers apart on Pyrois, Zhao, Banyue, Yidhari, Seed, Alice, Burnice and Jane. Their place on our Zenless Zone Zero tier list is the middle rating, and each agent's note shows every site's rating.
When will this tier list be updated?
It was last checked on Oct 30, 2026, against the version 3.3 on the Global server. The next full check is at the next version update, and we also re-check whenever a new agent is released. The checked date at the top of the page always shows how current the ranking is.
