Seven Knights Re:BIRTH now has more than 120 Legendary and Rare heroes, and fresh banners land roughly every two weeks. That makes it very easy to pour resources into someone who falls off a month later. This Seven Knights Re:BIRTH tier list ranks every hero in the current meta for PvE and PvP, including the Demon Slayer collab heroes and every recent Awakening.
How We Built Our Seven Knights Re:BIRTH tier list?
These rankings come from cross checking community hero databases, top PvP and PvE player rankings, and every patch up to the Demon Slayer collab update. Heroes are judged at a solid level of investment, which usually means Transcendence 6, because that is where most kits fully come online. Awakened heroes are ranked in their Awakened form. Instead of splitting things into a separate PvE tier list and PvP tier list, every hero gets a ‘Best for’ tag that tells you exactly where they shine.
| Tier | What It Means |
| SS | Meta defining heroes. They are the core of top PvP teams or close to essential for the hardest PvE stages. |
| S | Excellent in most content. Safe, long term picks you will keep using. |
| A | Good heroes that usually shine in one role or one game mode. |
| B | Usable fillers or niche picks. Build them only if you have nothing better. |
| C and D | Early game placeholders. Most of these end up as enhancement material. |
One more thing worth knowing: Seven Knights Re:BIRTH only has two rarities that matter, Legendary and Rare, but Legendary heroes from special groups like the Seven Knights, Four Lords and Seven Knights of Old are noticeably stronger than regular Legendaries. The in-game hero filter even splits them into Special Legendary and Regular Legendary.

SS Tier Heroes
Check out all the 7KRebirth heroes in this tier:
Yoongun (Awakened, Magic)
Yoongun is the strongest damage dealer in the game right now. Skills hit every enemy with Pierce damage that also scales with the target’s max HP, and even the basic attack trims enemy buffs with Buff Duration Reduction. Transcendence 2 unlocks Ignore Defense and Transcendence 6 adds a powerful skill chain, so push for both. Yoongun is also the first hero with Binding Rope.
Best for: PvE and PvP.
Sun Wukong (Magic)
Sun Wukong is one of the most flexible heroes you can own. His skills change depending on whether his Clones are out, and his kit mixes Petrify, critical hits and Ignore Defense. Taking damage shortens his cooldowns, so he casts constantly, and every skill heals all allies. He reaches 100% Crit Rate at Transcendence 6.
Best for: PvP, Castle Rush and Advent Expedition.
Dellons (Awakened, Physical)
Awakened Dellons starts strong and gets scarier the longer a fight goes. After Transforming, Dellons becomes immune to crowd control, and every enemy finished with Execution chains straight into another skill.

Best for: PvE and PvP.
Clemyth (Awakened, Magic)
Clemyth is the best healer and buffer in the current meta. Ally Role Support gives each teammate a different bonus based on their type, so Clemyth fits Physical, Magic and tank teams alike.

Best for: Tank and sustain teams and Advent Expedition.
Orkah (Awakened, Physical)
Orkah is a Physical attacker built to dismantle enemy teams.

Best for: PvP and Physical teams.
Lu Bu (Physical)
Lu Bu is a hard hitting Physical carry who lands Weakness Hits that Ignore Defense. Bonus damage, extra attacks and consecutive skill activation mean he hits far more often than most heroes, and his cooldowns reset whenever he Revives. He works best with three or more Attack type heroes, and Transcendence 2 adds Defense Reduction.
Best for: PvE and PvP.
Randgrid (Physical)
Randgrid is one of the scariest PvP heroes in Seven Knights Re:BIRTH.

Best for: Arena and Guild War.
Skuld (Awakened, Magic)
Skuld is the top debuffer for Magic teams. She is the first hero who can weaken enemy shields with Incoming Barrier Reduction, and she delays enemy turns with Cooldown Increase and Silence.

Best for: PvP and Magic teams.
Sunran (Awakened, Physical)
Sunran is the hard counter to tank and sustain teams. Her hits scale with the target’s max HP and current HP, Upper Hand can make enemies Miss, and six stacks of Demon Face fire her second skill automatically.

Aris is a Universal type hero who mixes damage and support for long, grindy fights. Her damage keeps climbing as the battle goes on, Blocking an attack raises her Attack, and her hits apply Buff Duration Reduction. She also brings Pierce, Stun and Revive.

Best for: Tank and sustain teams.
Freyja (Magic)
Freyja is the best Magic AoE attacker for most accounts. Both of her skills hit every enemy, which makes her excellent for Nightmare Ruby farming, and she removes buffs and turns them into Defense Reduction. HP Alteration and Bleed help her crack tanky PvP teams.

Seven Knights Re:BIRTH Skill Terms Explained
Skill descriptions in Seven Knights Re:BIRTH, or 7K Rebirth as much of the community calls it, throw around a lot of terms. Here are the ones you will see most in this guide:
- Transcendence: A hero upgrade that uses duplicate copies. Stages 2 and 6 add new skill effects for most heroes, so they are the big milestones.
- Awakening: A major upgrade for selected heroes that adds an Awakening skill and improves their kit. It needs 6 stars, all skills enhanced, the Fragment Restoration missions and Awakening Stones.
- Ignore Defense: The attack skips part of the target’s Defense, so it hits harder against tanky enemies.
- HP Alteration: Changes a target’s HP directly instead of dealing normal damage. It is one of the best tools against tanks.
- Damage Nullification: Blocks damage for a set number of hits.
- Damage Immunity: Blocks damage for a set number of turns.
- Guts and Immortality: Guts lets a hero survive a hit that would knock them out. Immortality stops them from going down for a short time.
- Weakness Hit: A separate bonus damage proc that works alongside critical hits.
- Link: Spreads incoming damage across linked allies so one hero does not take it all.
- Death: A countdown status that knocks the enemy out when it runs out.

Upcoming Demon Slayer Heroes in Seven Knights Re:BIRTH
Part 2 of the Demon Slayer collab lands on October 15 and adds two more heroes. Their full kits are not confirmed yet, so both stay off the Seven Knights Re:BIRTH tier list until they release and get tested.
| Hero | Type | What We Know So Far | Tier |
| Giyu Tomioka | Universal | Builds offense and defense stacks and powers up by switching between them | TBA |
| Shinobu Kocho | Magic | Builds up poison on enemies and spreads it across the team | TBA |
Netmarble has confirmed that all four collab heroes will be provided to players, and the event runs until October 29. The Nezuko Kamado pet can also be earned just by playing, so this is a great window for new and returning players.

| Raids | Biscuit, Xiao Qiao, Teo, Freyja, Vanessa |

Best Seven Knights Re:BIRTH Reroll Targets and Beginner Picks
Rerolling is an optional process in Seven Knights Re:BIRTH. The free heroes and early summons are good enough to clear PvE at a steady pace, but a strong first pull does make the early game smoother. Here is what to aim for if you want to start near the top of the Seven Knights Re:BIRTH tier list.
- First Legendary summon: Your first ten pull guarantees one of five Legendaries, which are Velika, Nia, Bi Dam, Ruri and Yu Shin. Velika and Nia are the best of the bunch since both clear waves with AoE skills.
- Top reroll targets: Teo is the best overall reroll for farming, followed by Yeonhee, Rin and Mercure. Vanessa and Kagura are the strongest supports to start with.
- Skip tanks for now: Defense types like Rudy only show their full value once the rest of your roster is built.
- Free Rares to build: Yui, Evan and Lucy carry the early game, and Yui stays useful for a long time.
- Grab the collab heroes: All four Demon Slayer heroes are being provided to players, so log in while the event is running.
A reroll takes about five minutes. To reroll in Seven Knights Re:BIRTH, follow these steps:
- Log in as a guest
- Finish the initial tutorial
- Claim your mailbox rewards
- Use your summons.
If the result is not what you want, delete the guest account from the ‘Settings’ menu and start again. Then link your account once you are happy with your pulls.
