To help new players choose the most powerful knights and play more effectively, we've put together a preliminary character Tier List for May 2026. Use it as a starting guide for your journey.
Please note: This tier list is based on personal opinions and is by no means the final word on team building. Feel free to adjust your party composition to suit your own playstyle.
Genesis War Character Tier List
Here’s a detailed breakdown of what each tier represents
S-Tier
Exceedingly rare — but once you’re lucky enough to obtain one, you’ll find they possess undisputed, god-tier (OP) strength that towers above every other character in the game. S-Tier companions boast the highest overall combat power; whether it’s base stats, skill effects, unique traits, or overall combat efficiency, they dominate with overwhelming authority in both PvE and PvP content.
A-Tier
Exceptionally powerful — so strong they border on game-breaking. These are absolute must-have characters, well worth the long-term investment of your resources. They typically deliver massive damage output, blistering speed, or unique team-wide buffs, and they deliver consistently outstanding performance across virtually all game modes.
B-Tier
Solid and dependable. These characters are strong enough to perform admirably in all types of content. They’re versatile all-rounders who blend durability with flexibility, staying highly effective in the vast majority of combat scenarios. While they may fall slightly short of higher-tier characters in raw attack power or extreme specialization, they remain trustworthy, reliable, and consistently strong choices.
C-Tier
Decent and functional. These characters can capably fill a damage-dealer (DPS) role — making them a fine starting choice for new players. Compared to higher tiers, however, they may lag a bit behind when it comes to burst potential or overall combat efficiency.
Of course, as you progress deeper into the game, you’re likely to discover personal favorites that click perfectly with your playstyle and tactical setup — even if they don’t quite match the rankings on this tier list. In the early game, many free-to-obtain characters can serve as highly effective substitutes. With that in mind, keeping this list as a preliminary reference guide is never a bad idea.
Additionally, if your gacha luck isn’t going your way, try using MEmu Play — it lets you reroll at up to 4x speed, helping you land that perfect starting account much faster.
S-Tier Heroes
SharnHoiste
Passive offers constant healing or mobility increase.
Ultimate deals AoE damage and increases critical hit damage.

Great build path into each Tier 3 class.
Crow

Amazing Tier 3 class options so that he will scale great into the late game.
Christiande Medich
Has access to multiple attacks if equipped with the correct weapon.
Extremely mobile.
Passive requires constant maintenance in order to get enough stacks.
Joan Kartright
One of the most versatile passives in the game, currently offering multiple buffs each turn.
Basic ability cannot be counterattacked.
Great Tier 3 class options, easy to adapt to any team comp.
How to Summon Characters
To obtain characters in Genesis War, go to the Summoning menu. There, you can use Destiny Cubes to summon random characters. Each character can be awakened up to 5 stars, but doing so requires that character's Memory Fragments.
In the Summoning menu, certain characters will have dedicated limited-time banners. This means the chance of obtaining that specific character is increased compared to others of the same rarity, up to a 50% higher drop rate.
The game also features a pity system:
- Performing 10 consecutive summons guarantees at least one Hero-grade or higher character.
- Reaching a total of 120 summons guarantees one Legendary-grade character. (The summon counter resets if you pull a Legendary before reaching 120.)
