All Styles Ranked


Placement reasoning


S Tier – These are the best Styles in the game and are very OP. If you’re lucky enough to get them, you won’t need to reroll.

A Tier – These are amazing Styles that just lack a little something compared to the S Tier Styles. Still these are all worthwhile options.

B Tier – The Styles in this tier are situational—they can be really great with the right setting but are somewhat lacking, especially when playing solo.

C Tier – Not completely bad, but not good, either. The Styles here come up short in key areas. You’ll want to reroll Styles from this tier as soon as you can.

You can click on each style to go to its own dedicated page to see all moves and our guides on the Style itself.

S Tier


  • Perfection ( 0.25% chance to drop from normal spins, 1% from lucky spins ) – This Style is the highest rarity in the game and for good reason. It offers a great mix of offensive and defensive abilities, an overall great buff with Evolution and variations for every basic move. Blink offers great defensive mobility and Perfect Dribble is one of the best dribbling moves in the game with two different scoring variants. With the amount of versatility and amazing Awakening moves this Styles offers it’s a instant S tier placement.
  • Ace ( 0.5% chance to drop from normal spins, 5% from lucky spins ) – The best versatile scoring Style in the game, it gives you an additional dribble with solid range and a great shooting ability in Athletic Fade. The Awakening moveset is also amazing.
  • Jackpot ( 0.5% chance to drop from normal spins, 5% from lucky spins )– This was a tricky one to place since it’s luck-based but it’s hard to ignore the amount of variants and abilities this Style gives you. You get a great Dribbling move that can extend into a pass, a steal move with Jackpot Steal with a Stun and Dash variant. Even in your awakening, if you don’t hit the Jackpot, the Loaded dice abilities are still extremely good.
  • Copycat ( 0.5% chance to drop from normal spins, 5% from lucky spins ) – This is a really great Style, possibly the most versatile Style in the game. The basic Copy and 100% Copy abilities are what put it in the S tier, making it so you can choose what ability to take form whatever Style is currently in play is extremely strong and Flowstep on it’s own is one of the best dribbling moves in the game.

A Tier


  • Playmaker ( 35% chance to drop from normal spins, 50% form lucky spins ) – For an Epic Style, Playmaker is amazing, with great abilities for every offensive aspect of the game, a great dribbling move in Nutmeg, an auto Alley Oop pass and an excellent shooting move in Push Off. Playmaker is in A tier because it only gives you a single option for offensive moves.
  • Sniper ( 2% chance to drop from normal spins, 45% form lucky spins )– This Style is a toss up since it specializes only in shooting, but the abilities you get from Sniper are extremely good. Sniper could be an S tier Style but with the lack of dribbling and dashing moves you will have to rely on other players to get you the ball. In the base game, most players will focus on scoring instead of passing, which is why Sniper ended up in A tier.
  • Giant ( 0.5% chance to drop from normal spins, 5% from lucky spins ) – A very dunk focused Style with little to no scoring and movement abilities. Knock Back is a solid dash move, but it only goes straight if you don’t have any dribbles left, so a defender can easily steal the ball from you afterwards. What puts Giant in A tier is Snatch Block—a great defensive move that allows you to grab the ball out of the air instead of just deflecting it.
  • Flash ( 2% chance to drop from normal spins, 45% form lucky spins )– A very situational Style than can be quite effective in a game with friends—if you can communicate with your teammates. It has the best movement abilities in the game with Dash and Quickstep Drive, and the Awakening gives you a great stealing move. The absence of any scoring moves can be frustrating in a solo game, though .
  • Star ( 2% chance to drop from normal spins, 45% form lucky spins ) – This Style suffers from the same drawbacks as Giant, being focused solely on dunking. But it offers a faster-paced playstyle Dash since it has good range. Other scoring areas are the style’s main weakness, which is why it sits in the A tier.
  • Lock 2% chance to drop from normal spins, 45% form lucky spins ) – The first defensive focused Style in the game, making it a bit harder to rank since every other one is offensive focused. However, even though Lock has only 2 basic and 1 Awakened abilities, it’s hard to put it anywhere below A due to its formidable blocking ability and pass interception.

B Tier


  • Phantom ( 35% chance to drop from normal spins, 50% form lucky spins )– This Style is built for team gameplay and, in that setting, has some of the best passing abilities in the game with solid a solid scoring move in the Awakening. Still, as its main abilities are practically only useful in a team, it can be hard to get Phantom to its full potential when playing solo.
  • Chuck ( 62.5% chance to drop )– A solid Style for what it’s trying to do, but lacks additional moves and variants to make up for the 50% chance of all your abilities to fail. It can be really great if you are lucky and Heat Check keeps hitting and extending it’s range, but the added risk of missing prevents this Style from ranking any higher.

C Tier


  • Clutch ( 62.5% chance to drop )– A beginner-friendly starting Style. There’s only one Awakening move and the basic abilities are mediocre. Not a bad Style on its own, but fades in comparison with the rarer, higher-rated ones.
