These are the Chaos Zero Nightmare characters that feel strong no matter the stage—you pick them, and the game just gets easier.
A healer who also gives AP (Action Points) is rare in a card-based game. That's why Mika is core meta — she speeds up your entire team's rotation, lets your DPS play expensive cards earlier, and keeps everyone healthy. If you're rerolling, Mika is always a safe investment.

When you need one enemy deleted fast, Mei Lin is the most reliable pick. She applies weakness consistently, ramps damage with her mechanics, and keeps strong performance even without a perfect setup.
In every Chaos Zero Nightmare tier list, she lands at the top because she simply never falls off. It is best for players who struggle with bosses, need a high Break value, and want a consistent, easy-to-trigger burst.

Veronica
Veronica's Ballista follow-ups are basically "free damage every turn". Once she gets going, enemy HP evaporates. She also draws cards for the team, which helps smooth out awkward hands.
It is the best choice for players who want passive damage, want a sub-DPS that scales without effort and run combo teams.

Hugo
If you enjoy high-tempo teams that punish enemies multiple times each turn, Hugo fits perfectly. He shines especially in harder content where fights last long enough to stack his effects properly.

T0.5 units are the second best in this Chaos Zero Nightmare tier list. They deliver reliable power and shine with the right team support.
Tressa
Tressa excels in fights where enemies have high damage reduction. Her DoTs stack fast and shred bosses over time. Great for Chaos stages with healing or defensive buffs.

Haru
Haru is incredibly simple to use and hits hard. Her ability to pick specific cards from the discard pile gives her guaranteed burst windows. With an AP generator like Mika, she becomes one of the most explosive DPS in the game.
Khalipe
Khalipe is a tank, but she doesn't play like one. Her hybrid offence/ defence mechanics let her deal good AoE damage while helping stabilise your front line. Long fights make her shine.
Cassius
If you hate bricked hands, Cassius fixes them. He heals, redraws, and keeps your deck flowing — making him valuable in almost any team comp.
These characters perform well in most situations, especially if you enjoy flexible builds and steady progression. Continue reading to learn more about the T1 characters in this Chaos Zero Nightmare tier list:
Magna
If you like slow, defensive, comfortable gameplay, Magna performs very reliably. It is safe and stable, hence one of the best Chaos Zero Nightmare characters for beginners.

Yuki
If you farm wave-based content or love clearing mobs with style, Yuki is your girl. Cards that activate when drawn + easy AoE spam = smooth Chaos Zero Nightmare gameplay.
Rin
When Rin gets the cards she wants, she destroys enemies. But you need the right setup, and without it, her pace slows down.
Kayron
Kayron becomes stronger over time, making him ideal for long fights. Early rotations feel clunky, but once his Exhaust mechanics ramp, he becomes deadly.
Selena
Selena is great for mixed teams. She chips away at multiple enemies and benefits greatly from multi-hit units.
This group includes Renoa, Luke, Maribell, Nia, Beryl, Lucas, Owen, and Amir. Most of them are niche picks — strong only when paired with specific synergies. Here are some quick notes to help you make the right choices:
Alt Text: Owen: A T2 tier character in Chaos Zero Nightmare tier list
●Owen is beginner-friendly but outgrows quickly.
●Renoa has insane burst but horrible hand-clogging issues.
●Maribell is good in counter teams, but can't carry.
●Nia supports card manipulation well.
●Amir struggles due to low defensive base stats.
They can work, especially early, but are not ideal long-term investments.
Here's the part most Chaos Zero Nightmare guides don't tell you: tier lists only help when you combine them with smart team building. Here's the simplest formula that almost always works:
●1 Main DPS (Mei Lin, Haru, Hugo, Veronica)
●+ 1 AP/Healer (Mika or Cassius)
●+ 1 Utility Support / Tank (Khalipe, Selena, Magna)
Alongside knowing the characters, you also need to learn how to use them well strategically. To help you with it, we have shared team combinations for some key characters below.
Best Chaos Zero Nightmare Team For Beginners
Mei Lin + Mika + Cassius: It is an extremely stable team with good hand flow and smooth rotation. It works even with low investment.
Best Chaos Zero Nightmare Team For AoE
Yuki + Veronica + Mika: Yuki clears waves, Veronica adds follow-up damage, and Mika keeps the AP flowing. It is one of the best teams for AoE.
Best Chaos Zero Nightmare Team For Defeating Bosses
Haru + Mei Lin + Cassius: Two reliable single-target nukers, and Cassius ensures no bricked hands. It is perfect for late-game Chaos.
If you follow this Chaos Zero Nightmare tier list, you'll progress faster, waste fewer resources, and build teams that actually perform in real gameplay. Focus on your T0 and T0.5 characters first, mix in a few strong T1 picks, and only touch T2 units if they match a specific strategy you're running.
