[S5🏆] Racket Rivals Tier List

Season 5 community placements for spirits, awakenings, and rackets. These are editorial groupings of published comparisons, not an official ladder.

How the letters were chosen

Spirit and awakening letters follow the longer September 2026 tables. Where a shorter guide or a September 2025 list disagrees, the row says so. Racket letters follow the stat comparison from that same period. Divine Spin stays in S because that comparison ranked it there, and the low power and reach are written in the recommendation instead of being averaged away.

Which [S5🏆] Racket Rivals boards are on this hub?

Two jobs, two lists. Open a child page for the long table. This hub is the snapshot.

Tierrackets10 ranked rows.Tierawakenings9 ranked rows.Tierspirits7 ranked rows.

S tier

racketsDivinity HunterPower 10, reach 7, dash 6 in the Season 5 comparison. Earned by Divinity rank and at least 130 wins, not by a spin.

Player decision The team-queue goal. It is not a purchase you can shortcut with Yen.

awakeningsEnergy DrainLegendary stat swing for your team and a slow on the other team. Ranked S for 2v2.

Player decision Default team awakening if you own it. Less special in 1v1 than a root or a hidden shuttle.

spiritsGomuFreeze stops the shuttle. The Season 5 spirit table and the shorter lists agree this is the top save tool. Players start with it.

Player decision Learn on Gomu. Swap only when you want Jin's setup or Hinari's fire and you already win the neutral rally.

awakeningsCaptain SaluteCommon rarity, large team buff, ranked S for 2v2. A 2025 list described the buff as ally speed.

Player decision The realistic early awakening for team play. Do not shard past it just because the catalog says common.

spiritsJinAstral Set pulls the shuttle in. The detailed Season 5 table ranks it with Gomu. A 2025 list had ranked Jin A instead.

Player decision Best with a partner who will smash the set. Confirm the Yen or Robux price at Luna before you grind for it.

racketsSoul SmashPower 10 and dash 10 with reach 3. Banner reports include a 10% Divine Banner figure and a separate Robux-pack video.

Player decision The spike racket if you can dash into range. A teammate or your own set covers the short reach.

racketsWinged ShadowSpeed 8, dash 9, power 8, reach 4. The stat table ranks it S for 1v1. A rackets overview later filed it lower as a secondary racket.

Player decision Use the S placement for solo queue. If your copy's dash is not actually high, trust the panel over the letter.

racketsNeon ChaosReach 9 and jump 9 in the Season 5 table, used as a back-court anchor. Other guides describe a maxed copy as an all-rounder from a limited ranked banner.

Player decision Put one teammate on it in the back. Do not compare a level 1 copy with a max-level story.

racketsDivine SpinThe Season 5 publisher-style list ranks it S for spin. The same writeup says testing is split and prints power 4 and reach 4. This row keeps the S and the warning together instead of averaging them into a new letter.

Player decision Only if you play for curve. If you want easier points, Soul Smash or Divinity Hunter match that goal better.

A tier

awakeningsGooeyRoots the next hitter for about 2 to 3 seconds. The mode table says A and calls it the best 1v1 kill. Another short list said S.

Player decision Equip it for solo queues. Hold it if the opponent still has Freeze.

spiritsHinariOverheat lights the shuttle and demands a set or ability in reply. Ranked A after players learned to expect the fire.

Player decision Use it in 1v1 when you can see that their set is down. Weaker as a surprise against the same opponent all session.

awakeningsGround SlamKnockback and slow in every mode, and the reported answer to a low Freeze.

Player decision Keep it until you own a legendary you actually prefer. Practice the anti-freeze timing in unranked play.

spiritsSenshuDefensive bomb covers space. The long Season 5 table says A. An improvement guide says B.

Player decision Pick Senshu to hold a side for a weaker teammate. Do not expect it to replace Freeze if you are the only defender who can reposition.

racketsNight KingMovement 9 and power 9. Aggressive mobility without a published reach line.

Player decision A hitter who wants to get there and still smash. Check reach on the panel before you main it.

awakeningsShredHides the shuttle after the hit. Secret rarity, ranked A.

Player decision Use it when the rally is fast. A lob gives the defender time to guess the line.

racketsGomu's RacketFree-to-play mastery racket for Gomu. Called balanced, not the highest ceiling.

Player decision The correct racket while you learn. Stop upgrading it only when a banner racket is better on the stat you lack.

B tier

spiritsGazoTime Control is a short slow. The long 2026 table says B. An improvement guide says A, and a 2025 list said S.

Player decision Take the B placement unless your own matches show the slow window is enough. It is a movement aid, not a second Freeze.

awakeningsWall PortalsTeleports a wall hit to the other wall. Reported around a 1% legendary. Ranked B because the aim requirement is strict.

Player decision Only if you already aim at walls on purpose. Jin makes the setup easier.

awakeningsHocus PocusHides players. Ranked B for 2v2 confusion and weaker in 1v1.

Player decision A team trick, not a solo win condition.

racketsDragon's BreathSpeed 10 on the Season 5 table, filed as a niche speed build. A 2025 list and one overview rated it higher, up to S.

Player decision A speed specialist racket. The older S rank is not used here because those lists did not show the rest of the panel.

racketsObsidian ScytheMaximum reach for players who get caught wide. Also called Obsidian Sight in one guide. Treated as one racket.

Player decision Defensive specialist. Pair with a power teammate rather than expecting this racket to spike.

C tier

spiritsKyokiBlindfold is brief. The long table says C. A shorter list said B.

Player decision A mix-up, not a ranked default, once opponents track the shuttle without looking at your avatar.

awakeningsCurve ShotEpic curve. The meta table says C because the arc becomes readable. Other Season 5 play guides still use it to score in 1v1 and 2v2, and a patch note changed the first curved shot.

Player decision Keep it if your opponents are not reading the bend yet. Do not call it useless because of the letter.

racketsHinari's RacketReach 9 and low power. The Season 5 table calls it early game only.

Player decision Use it with Hinari while you learn Overheat, then leave it.

D tier

spiritsGojinVoid Rush hides you and adds speed, with no hit or save. The long table says D. A shorter list said C.

Player decision Buy it only as a cheap task spirit. Do not master it first if Gomu is already unlocked.

awakeningsAimbotSends the shuttle to corners. Ranked D in the later table because those corners are the ones defenders already watch. A 2025 list said B.

Player decision Replace it when you can aim a wall or a smash yourself.
