Dragon Ball Sparking Zero best characters tier list

Dragon Ball Sparking Zero features a massive cast of playable characters that have unique stats as well as abilities and moves. If you are a long-time fan of the Dragon Ball series, then we don't need to remind the massive power gap between characters like Goku, Vegeta, and Mr. Satan, Master Roshi. However, thanks to the balancing in this game, every character is quite effective despite being astronomically underpowered in the canon lore.

However, finding the best characters among all these is quite overwhelming. That's why, to help you find the best among the best, we have made a Dragon Ball Sparking Zero character tier list, consisting of characters that can be considered the best in their respective tier.

Disclaimer: Each tier consists of a handful of characters that are the best in their tier based on the reasons stated below. This article is subjective and reflects the writer's opinion.
