The current Zenless Zone Zero tier list — S-tier leads the meta.

How the meta works

Zenless Zone Zero squads are three agents built around a DPS, a Stun unit that breaks enemy Daze for bonus damage, and a Support (or Anomaly enabler) that buffs and heals. The best carries — Ye Shunguang, Miyabi and Yixuan — do the heavy lifting, while flexible supports like Astra Yao slot into almost any team. Bangboo and W-Engines matter too, but agent choice comes first. As with every gacha, each version adds agents and reworks content, so the tier list changes — check the current version before pulling.
