Dokkan Battle tier lists rank units based on their importance, effectiveness, and relevance in the current meta.

Units are evaluated not just on raw damage output, but also on their tanking capabilities, support potential, leader skills, and synergy with other units.

The tier system typically follows this structure:
Rank: S+ Tier Categories: Fused Fighters, Pure Saiyans, Earth-Protecting Heroes, Earth-Bred Fighters, Potara
The 10th Anniversary Vegito stands as the undisputed best unit in Dokkan Battle. This unit possesses everything a player could want: exceptional damage output, incredible defensive capabilities, and versatile leadership skills. His Active Skill - Special Fusion - activates on the fifth turn, allowing him to perform Potara Fusion for four turns. During this state, he forces enemies to attack him while gaining a 10% ATK buff and counter-attacking for each hit received.
Leader Skill: Provides Ki+3, HP +200%, and ATK & DEF +170% to Fused Fighters, Pure Saiyans, or Earth-Protecting Heroes categories, with additional HP, ATK & DEF +50% to Earth-Bred Fighters or Potara categories.
Why He's #1: Complete kit with no weaknesses, exceptional tanking abilities, and versatile category coverage make him the perfect unit for any situation.
Rank: S Tier Categories: Future Saga, Fused Fighters, Bond of Parent and Child, Final Trump Card
Str Blue Bros represents one of the best leader units currently available in Dokkan Battle. His versatility comes from a leader skill that supports multiple relevant categories, making him an excellent choice for building diverse teams. The unit excels in both offensive and defensive scenarios, with strong link skills that synergize well with other top-tier units.
Leader Skill: Ki+3, HP +200%, and ATK & DEF +170% to Future Saga or Fused Fighters categories, with additional HP, ATK & DEF +50% to Bond of Parent and Child and Final Trump Card categories.

Rank: S Tier Categories: GT, Goku's Family, Kamehameha, Pure Saiyans, Super Saiyan 3
This Goku unit transforms into a Golden Giant Ape under specific conditions, making him one of the most dynamic and powerful units in the game. His transformation triggers when HP falls to 70% or less starting from the fifth turn, granting massive stat boosts and critical hit potential.
Transformation Mechanics:
Why He's Top-Tier: The transformation mechanic provides incredible scaling power, making him increasingly dangerous as battles progress. His ability to gain strength throughout longer events makes him perfect for challenging content.
Rank: A+ Tier Categories: Hybrid Saiyans, Goku's Family, Kamehameha, Powerful Opponent, Earth-Bred Fighters
Beast Gohan represents one of the most powerful damage dealers in Dokkan Battle, with incredible offensive capabilities that can decimate enemy teams. His recent introduction has shaken up the meta, providing players with a unit that excels in pure damage output.
Strengths:
Considerations: While incredibly powerful, Beast Gohan requires proper team building to maximize his potential and may struggle against certain defensive setups.
Rank: A+ Tier Categories: Fused Fighters, GT Heroes, Kamehameha, Final Trump Card, Bond of Parent and Child
Phy Monkey Bros offers excellent leadership capabilities and strong defensive presence. This unit gains ATK and DEF with each Super Attack performed, guards from incoming attacks, and provides great damage reduction from turn one. The fusion mechanic activates on the fourth turn, though strategic players may delay fusion in longer content to maximize power scaling.
Leader Skill: HP, ATK, and DEF +170% alongside Ki+3 to Fused Fighters or GT Heroes categories, with additional HP, ATK, and DEF +30% to Kamehameha category units.
Strategic Value: The ability to delay fusion makes this unit incredibly versatile for different content types, from quick events to marathon-style battles.
Rank: A Tier Categories: Namekians, Dragon Ball Seekers, Powerful Opponent
Piccolo Jr. stands as the premier TUR unit in Dokkan Battle, primarily due to his revival mechanics that make him incredibly valuable in longer battles. Once he revives, he transforms into a completely different unit with massively enhanced stats and capabilities.
Key Mechanics:
Why He's #1 TUR: The revival mechanic provides unparalleled value in difficult content where units typically fall, making him a cornerstone for many team compositions.
Rank: A- Tier Categories: Pure Saiyans, Goku's Family, Kamehameha, Super Saiyan God
This SSG Goku unit represents one of the most well-rounded TUR options available. He provides excellent damage output, solid defensive capabilities, and good support for Pure Saiyan teams. His versatility makes him a valuable addition to many different team compositions.
Strengths:
Rank: A- Tier Categories: Goku's Family, Kamehameha, Super Saiyan, Powerful Opponent

Key Features:
Rank: B+ Tier Categories: Universe 6, Female Super Saiyan, Powerful Opponent
Kale represents a high-risk, high-reward unit that can be absolutely devastating when properly supported. Her transformation mechanic requires protection early in battles, but once transformed, she becomes one of the most powerful units in the entire game.

Power creep is a significant factor in Dokkan Battle, with new units regularly outperforming older ones. However, some units maintain relevance through:
Based on current trends, future top-tier units will likely feature:
S-tier units typically excel in multiple areas: they have strong leader skills, excellent offensive and defensive capabilities, good support potential, and synergize well with the current meta. Units like 10th Anni Vegito and Str Blue Bros are considered S-tier because they have no significant weaknesses and perform exceptionally well across all content types.
Tier lists can change significantly with each major update, which typically occurs every 2-4 weeks. New unit releases, Extreme Z-Awakenings (EZAs), and balance adjustments can dramatically shift the meta. It's recommended to check updated tier lists monthly to stay current with the meta.
While tier lists are valuable guides, you should also consider your existing box, favorite characters, and specific content needs. A lower-tier unit that fits your team composition may be more valuable than a higher-tier unit that doesn't synergize with your current units.
LR (Legendary Rare) units are the rarest and typically most powerful units in the game, with base stats that exceed other unit types. TUR (Transcended Ultra Rare) units are Dokkan-awakened UR units that can reach higher levels and super attack levels than regular URs. While LR units are generally stronger, some TUR units can outperform older LR units.
Link skills are extremely important in Dokkan Battle, often making the difference between success and failure in difficult content. Proper link skill activation can provide substantial stat boosts (20%+ ATK and DEF) and ensure units have enough Ki to perform super attacks. Always prioritize link skill compatibility when building teams.
The strongest categories currently include Fused Fighters, Future Saga, and GT Heroes due to their excellent unit variety, strong leaders, and good synergy options. However, the optimal category depends on your specific unit collection and the content you're facing.
A competitive team typically has: a strong leader with 170%+ stat boosts, units that share multiple link skills, balanced offensive and defensive capabilities, and coverage for different battle scenarios. If you can consistently complete Super Battle Road and Extreme Z-Battle content, your team is likely competitive.
Prioritize: 1) A strong leader with good category coverage, 2) Units that activate multiple link skills with each other, 3) Balanced offensive and defensive capabilities, 4) Units that perform well in the specific content you're targeting. Always consider your best units and build around their strengths.
This comprehensive Dokkan Battle tier list provides the rankings and analysis needed to build competitive teams in the current meta. While units like 10th Anni Vegito and Str Blue Bros stand at the top, the key to success lies in understanding unit synergies, optimizing link skills, and building teams that complement your specific unit collection.
Remember that tier lists are guides, not absolute rules. The best team is one that works for your playstyle and unit collection. Stay updated with new releases and community discussions to keep your teams competitive as the meta evolves.
