HSR Team Tier List
The HSR team tier list ranks Version 4.5 team cores by build cost, rotation stability, and endgame coverage. Use it to pick a main team, plan a second side, or decide whether a banner unit improves a comp you already play.
Aventurine • Waveflair
Ashveil
Mortenax Blade
Hyacine
Aventurine • Waveflair adds Elation damage, chaining frequent attacks with Ashveil and Mortenax Blade while Hyacine sustains. Aventurine's E1 significantly increases his attack frequency and damage output.
Evanescia
Yao Guang
Elation Trailblazer
Huohuo
Evanescia is the main carry; Yao Guang and Elation Trailblazer speed up the rotation, while Huohuo covers Energy and sustain. Fast and safe, though some damage-reduction mechanics cut into its output.
Silver Wolf LV.999
Sparxie
Yao Guang
Huohuo
Silver Wolf LV.999 handles low-target burst while Sparxie and Yao Guang add damage and keep the rotation moving. Huohuo covers Energy and sustain. Damage spreads thin against larger waves.
Himeko • Nova
Sparkle
Tribbie
Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae
Himeko • Nova works in single-target and AoE fights. Sparkle provides AA, Tribbie adds Vulnerability, and DHPT covers the Astral Express slot plus sustain. Double-AA setups have a higher ceiling.
Castorice
Evernight
Cyrene
Hyacine
Evernight adds damage, Cyrene buffs Castorice, and Hyacine covers Energy and sustain. Robin • Summeretto can replace the lowest-investment slot, but a finished premium core has little reason to swap.
Archer
Rin Tohsaka
Sparkle
Huohuo
Archer and Rin run as a dual-carry core. Rin adds AoE and SP, Sparkle provides AA, and Huohuo covers Energy and sustain. Strong single-target burst, but SPD tuning and manual play matter.
Firefly
Fugue
The Dahlia
Lingsha
Firefly handles Break damage while The Dahlia improves Toughness damage and rotations. Fugue adds Super Break, and Lingsha covers sustain. Stable across most fights, though the full premium core is expensive.
Hysilens
Kafka
Black Swan
Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae
Hysilens applies DoTs, Kafka detonates them, and Black Swan builds Arcana. DHPT keeps the team alive. It works in single-target and AoE fights, but ramps slowly and depends more on enemy turns.
Phainon
Cyrene
Cerydra
Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae
Cyrene and Cerydra add actions and boost Phainon's burst windows; DHPT sustains. E2 Phainon can replace a low-investment support with Robin • Summeretto; below E2, more investment has poor value.
Saber
Gilgamesh
Sparkle
Huohuo
Saber feeds Gilgamesh Energy, Sparkle provides AA, and Huohuo covers Energy and sustain. E0S0 Robin • Summeretto adds little to the standard setup; only ceiling-focused accounts should consider the swap.
Aglaea
Cyrene
Sunday
Hyacine
Cyrene buffs Aglaea's memosprite, Sunday provides AA and Energy, and Hyacine sustains. Low-investment Aglaea costs too much to upgrade; only full E2S1 teams should consider Robin • Summeretto over Sunday.
