Girls' Frontline 2 Tier List Hub
Global rankings for Chiral Redundancy — late August 2026. Meta shifts; this is a snapshot.
This hub is the ranking index for Girls’ Frontline 2: Exilium on Global. It is written against Chiral Redundancy (late August 2026) and will drift when Expansion Keys, MOD Dolls, and new limited Elites land. Treat every letter grade as a snapshot, not scripture. Public lists from Dexerto and Pocket Gamer in 2026 are useful starting points; they are not gospel, and they disagree on a few names.
Use the role splits when you already know your Phase, or start with pull advice if you are staring at Access Permissions:
- Who to Pull — banners, skip rules, beginner standards
- DPS Tier List — carries and Action Support damage
- Support Tier List — shields, Hydro buffers, Burn enablers
Roster pages sit next door: Dolls Hub, Best Dolls, and Team Compositions. Banner timing lives on Current Banners. Pity math is on the gacha pity guide and the Pity Planner.
What S-tier actually means here
S-tier, as commonly cited in 2026 Global write-ups, clusters around Klukai, Suomi, Makiatto, Qiongjiu, Vector, Springfield, Leva, Lenna, Robella, Lewis, Alva, Sakura (Type 100), Voymastina, Sextans, Helen, Basti, and Cheyanne.
Those names win for different jobs. Klukai is the Corrosion carry who deletes waves and still posts boss damage when invested. Suomi is the standout Support: Frost Barriers, cleanses, and enough personal damage that she is not a passenger. Makiatto and Vector sit at the top of raw DPS conversations — Makiatto as a Freeze sniper, Vector as a Burn enabler who also hits like a carry. Qiongjiu is Action Support DPS: her follow-ups punish every ally hit, which is why she remains a standard-banner staple. Springfield is the Hydro Support who holds Hydro cores together. Electric leans on Leva, Lenna, and Sextans; Freeze also uses Alva; Physical pressure shows up on Voymastina and Cheyanne. Sakura (Type 100), Robella, Lewis, Helen, and Basti round out the commonly cited S group as Phase specialists rather than universal must-pulls.
A-tier is where most accounts actually live: Daiyan, Centaureissi, Lotta, Nemesis, Mosin-Nagant, Ksenia, Sabrina, Sharkry, Tololo, Qiuhua, Andoris, Jiangyu, Lainie, Phaetusa, Loreley, and OTs-14. OTs-14 arrived with Chiral Redundancy in August 2026 as a Resonance Sentinel. She is strong on paper and flexible across Phase teams, but she is new — evaluate her after you have a core, not as a panic pull. Tololo is the Hydro standard you should still raise even if some lists park her in A.
How we rank (and how we do not)
This hub ranks for Global PvE: story, events, farming stages, and Platoon modes such as Gunsmoke Frontline. It does not rank fashion, lore, or who looks cool on the Elmo. Criteria, in order:
- Does the Doll close content at V0 with a non-signature weapon?
- Does she enable a Phase team, or only pad a team that already works?
- Are her Vertebrae breakpoints greedy, or is V1/V2 a nice extra?
- Can a free-to-play or low-spend account obtain her without skipping every future limited?
If a Doll needs V6 plus signature to look S-tier, she is not S-tier for this wiki. Signature weapons help; they are not mandatory at V0. Details live on Weapons and Builds.
Beginner reading order
New Commanders should not try to collect the whole S row. Standard beginner targets are Qiongjiu and Tololo. Sabrina and Mosin-Nagant are usable while you wait. Peritya and Vepley are lower priority. Suomi flexes onto almost every early team if you get her; you do not need her on day one to clear the tutorial and early story.
Then pick one Phase and invest: Corrosion around Klukai, Electric around Leva or Lenna, Freeze around Makiatto, Hydro around Springfield and Tololo, Burn around Vector plus Sharkry or Qiongjiu. The Getting Started guide and Reroll page cover account setup. Combat confusion is on Combat Tiles.
Meta will move
Chiral Redundancy added OTs-14, the first MOD Doll (Nemesis: Gnosis), and more tile tools. Expansion Keys have already flipped older Elites from “fine” to “core” and back. When a new limited lands, check Updates, Patch History, and the Chiral Redundancy notes before you burn pity.
If you only open one child page after this hub, open Who to Pull with your current Access Permission count in hand.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers commanders actually search for.
Is this tier list official?
No. It is a Global-oriented fan ranking as of Chiral Redundancy in late August 2026. Dexerto and Pocket Gamer lists are cited as commonly referenced names, not as a publisher ranking.
Should I pull every S-tier Doll?
No. Build one Phase core and a flex Support. See Who to Pull and Team Compositions before spending Access Permissions.
Where do Qiongjiu and Tololo sit for new accounts?
They are the standard beginner targets. Qiongjiu is Action Support DPS on the permanent pool; Tololo is the Hydro standard worth raising even when some lists place her in A-tier.
Why is OTs-14 not locked into S-tier yet?
She launched with Chiral Redundancy in August 2026. Resonance looks strong and flexible, but this hub treats brand-new Elites as evaluate-after-a-core, not automatic S.
Do I need signature weapons for these ranks to apply?
No. Ranks assume V0 with a crafted or standard Elite weapon. Signatures help; they are not the floor. See Weapons and Builds.
