Top Tier Tier
3 characters
Endou Mamoru
円堂守 · Hot-blooded Guardian
The best goalkeeper in the game. Great The Hand and Majin Pegasus Arc make him nearly unbeatable. Essential for all content.
Gouenji Shuuya
豪炎寺修也 · Flame Striker
Top-tier fire striker with Baknetsu Screw dealing massive damage. Fire Tornado is reliable and chain-compatible. A must-have for fire teams.
Fubuki Shirou
吹雪士郎 · Prince of Snowfield
Best wind-attribute striker. Wolf Legend and Eternal Blizzard provide incredible damage output. His versatility as both shooter and playmaker makes him invaluable.
High Tier Tier
4 characters
Kidou Yuuto
鬼道有人 · Genius Game Maker
Best playmaker midfielder. Emperor Penguin No.2 is a powerful chain shot and Illusion Ball/Killer Fields make him great at both offense and support.
Kazemaru Ichirouta
風丸一郎太 · Gale Sprinter
Top wind-attribute defender. Wind God Dance dribble and Spinning Cut block give him great versatility. Excellent for both offensive and defensive roles.
Tachimukai Yuuki
立向居勇気 · Mugen the Effort
Solid backup goalkeeper with Mugen the Hand. His catching technique represents infinite effort and works well as a secondary GK. Forest attribute covers Endou's weakness.
Someoka Ryuugo
染岡竜吾 · Dragon Striker
Strong forest-attribute striker. Dragon Slayer and Wyvern Crash deal heavy damage. Dragon-themed techniques provide consistent power throughout the game.
Mid Tier Tier
4 characters
Sakuma Jirou
佐久間次郎 · Teikoku Academy Member
Forest-attribute shooter with unique Death Zone technique. Emperor Penguin No.2 chain shot is useful, but lower overall stats limit his effectiveness.
Kabeyama Heigorou
壁山塀吾郎 · Iron Wall Afro
Reliable mountain-attribute defender. The Mountain and Killer Slide are solid blocking techniques. Good for mountain-themed team compositions.
Fudou Myouou
不動明王 · Lone Rebel
Fire-attribute midfielder with high-risk high-reward Judge Through dribble. Can be effective but the high foul rate makes him unreliable in critical situations.
Low Tier Tier
3 characters
Ichinose Kazuya
一之瀬一哉 · Raimon Middle Member
Forest-attribute midfielder with creative but lower-power skills. Pegasus Shot and Afterimage have utility but lack the raw power needed for endgame content.
Tsunami Jousuke
綱海条介 · Inazuma Japan Member
Wind-attribute forward with Tsunami Boost as his standout skill. Decent for long-range situations but outclassed by Fubuki in almost every way.
Kogure Yuuya
木暮夕弥 · Inazuma Japan Member
Trickster defender with Clone Feint and Illusion Ball. Unique playstyle but low base stats make him unreliable compared to other defenders.
