There are a plethora of characters to choose from in Dragon Ball Legends, but not all of them are worth using. So, here’s a tier list of some of the best characters for you to prioritize in 2024.

The mobile ARPG iteration of the roaring anime and manga series, Dragon Ball Legends features over 250 characters to choose from. The game brings out your inner martial artist as you fight against these characters to emerge victorious. The presence of such a massive roster of characters means that not everyone will be optimal during fights. Obviously, it includes fan-favorite characters like Goku and Vegeta, but it also features support characters like Pan and Yamcha, which can come in handy during clutch situations. If you’re wondering which characters are best to choose in 2024, we have sorted the characters in a tier list to help you choose your fighter.

As we mentioned earlier, there are more than 250 characters in Dragon Ball Legends. Each of them has a unique story and it is next to impossible to go through each of their stats.
