If you’re playing Onsen and Girls and only have a tier list image to go off, it can feel confusing fast. Some characters look strong, others look similar, and without context it’s hard to know who actually matters.
This guide breaks down that tier list you shared into something usable so you can make smart decisions instead of guessing.
Tier List Overview
From your image, the ranking structure is:
- SS Tier → Top meta units, best overall
- S+ Tier → Very strong, just below top meta
- S Tier → Reliable core units
- A Tier → Situational or early-mid game
- B Tier → Weak or replaceable
Simple rule:
- SS and S+ = long-term investments
- S = safe picks
- A and B = temporary use
Onsen and Girls Tier List Guide – Best Characters
SS Tier (Best Characters in the Game)
These are your must-invest units.
What makes them strong:
- High scaling
- Strong abilities or synergy
- Perform well in all modes
If you have even one SS character:
- Build your team around them
- Prioritize upgrades, gear, and resources
These units are usually your main carries or core supports.
S+ Tier
These are extremely strong, just slightly behind SS.
Why they matter:
- Easier to build teams around
- Still viable in late game
- Often more accessible than SS
If you don’t have SS units, S+ characters can easily carry your account.
S Tier
This is where most balanced teams come from.
S-tier units:
- Perform consistently
- Work well in multiple comps
- Fill important roles (damage, support, utility)
You’ll likely use multiple S-tier units even in late game.
A Tier
A-tier characters are not bad, just limited.
Use them:
- Early game progression
- When you lack better options
Replace them once you start pulling S or higher units.
B Tier (Skip If Possible)
These units:
- Lack damage or utility
- Don’t scale well
- Get outclassed quickly
Only use them if you’re starting out and have no alternatives.
