What exactly makes a character strong in Arknights, and how would it land in the S tier?
In order for a character to be top tier, it should be able to clear out enemies on the battlefield fast enough or to have potent single target damage in order to kill upcoming bosses. That, along with a good synergy within the team, makes for a top tier character.

So taking the stunning artwork and immersive gameplay into consideration, we’ve got ourselves a winner. As for the gameplay, if you’re not exactly familiar with it, all the characters (Operators) you use can be placed on a board, sort of like a tower defense game, and the goal is to clear waves of enemies and escape the lab.
