Now that you've seen the overview, let's dive deep into what makes each style tick. I'll share my personal experience with every single one, including the secret techniques that most players don't know about.
S-Tier Styles: The Absolute Monsters
Sanu - The Untouchable Secret Style
Holy moly, if you manage to pull Sanu with its 0.1% drop rate, you've basically won the lottery. I was lucky enough to spin this during a Lucky Spin event, and let me tell you - it completely transformed my gameplay. Sanu comes with four maxed-out stats (Block, Jump, Spike, and the exclusive Tilt ability) that make you unstoppable in any position. The Tilt mechanic is absolutely broken - pressing W while spiking angles your attack downward for faster ground contact, while A/D tilts expand your blocking hitbox. I've literally carried entire teams to victory just by switching between offensive and defensive plays. If you get Sanu, never let it go - it's worth more than any other style combined.
Timeskip Hinoto - The Speed Demon Spiker
Remember regular Hinoto being perfectly balanced but boring? Well, Timeskip Hinoto said "forget balance" and went all-in on pure offense. With maxed Jump, Speed, and Spike stats, plus a unique Super Spike ability when running straight, this style turns you into an unstoppable offensive machine. I've been using this in ranked matches, and the super spike catches opponents off guard every single time. The only downside is you need to master the timing of running straight into your spike approach, but once you do, you're basically unblockable. The speed stat also lets you cover the entire court for those clutch saves.
Maia Twins - The Strategic Powerhouse
This secret style is unlike anything else in the game - you literally get two characters that you can swap between mid-match! With perfect Jump, Set, and Spike stats, plus very high ratings in everything else, the Maia Twins offer unmatched versatility. I love using this style because you can fake out opponents by swapping at crucial moments. The cooldown management is key here - you need to time your swaps perfectly to maximize both offensive and defensive plays. Each twin has slightly different strengths, so learning when to use each one separates good players from great ones.
Bokuto - The Classic Powerhouse
Before all these fancy secret styles, Bokuto was THE style everyone wanted, and honestly, it's still incredible. With maxed Block, Jump, and Spike stats, plus a killer serve, Bokuto remains my go-to recommendation for players who want consistent performance. I've mained Bokuto for months, and the combination of defensive blocking and offensive spiking makes you valuable in any team composition. The only "weakness" is average setting ability, but who cares when you can spike and block like a god? If you can't get a secret style, Bokuto is your best bet.
Kageyomo - The King of the Court
Inspired by Kageyama from the anime, this style lives up to its namesake with the only maxed Set stat in the game (besides secrets). What makes Kageyomo S-tier isn't just the setting - it's the well-rounded stats that let you contribute everywhere. I've noticed in ranked matches that good setters are rare, and having Kageyomo instantly makes you a valuable teammate. The high block, jump, and speed stats mean you're not just standing around waiting to set - you can defend, spike when needed, and rotate quickly. Perfect for team players who want to enable their squad.
A-Tier Styles: Elite But Not Broken
Oigawa - The Serving Specialist
Oigawa is fascinating because it's one of the few styles with maxed Serve alongside perfect Jump. In lobbies where you actually get to serve (looking at you, ranked mode), Oigawa can single-handedly win points with devastating serves. I've aced entire teams when serving from the corner with proper timing. The excellent setting ability makes this a fantastic support style. Just remember that spiking isn't your strong suit, so focus on setting up teammates and punishing with serves.
Timeskip Oigawa - Rainbow Serve Master
Take everything great about regular Oigawa and add a unique Rainbow Serve that can stun opponents - yeah, it's as broken as it sounds. The rainbow serve creates a high arc that drops unexpectedly, catching receivers off guard. I've seen players completely whiff on receiving these serves because they misjudge the trajectory. With the same perfect Jump and Serve stats as regular Oigawa, plus higher speed, this secret variant is a direct upgrade if you can get it.
Kimiro - The Defensive God
Don't sleep on Kimiro just because it's defense-focused. With perfect Bump, Dive, and Speed, plus the SuperDive ability that lets you dive anywhere on the court, this style is a receiver's dream. I've saved so many "impossible" balls with the SuperDive that teammates think I'm hacking. The high serve and set stats mean you're not useless on offense either. If you enjoy being the backbone of your team and making clutch saves, Kimiro is unmatched.
Uchishima - The Legendary Spiker
Uchishima might "only" be Legendary rarity, but those maxed Jump and Spike stats hit different. This style is pure offense - when you're at the net with Uchishima, defenders panic. I love using this in 6v6 matches where I can focus purely on spiking without worrying about other roles. The very high block stat is a nice bonus for front-line play. Just be aware that your bumping ability is below average, so stay near the net where you belong.
Kuzee - The Immovable Object
Kuzee is weird - it has incredible offensive stats (maxed Jump, very high Spike/Block/Serve) but moves like a turtle. I've found success by camping at the net and letting faster teammates handle the back court. When positioned correctly, Kuzee is nearly impossible to spike past due to the jump height and blocking power. The key is accepting your role as a stationary turret rather than trying to chase balls around the court.
B-Tier Styles: Perfectly Viable Options
Yabu - The Speedy Defender
With maxed Jump and Speed, Yabu excels at getting to balls others can't reach. I use this style when I want to play libero but still contribute to blocking. The high defensive stats make you reliable in the back row, while the speed lets you rotate for surprise attacks. The terrible serve is the only real weakness, but in most games, you won't serve enough for it to matter. Great for players who like covering the entire court.
Sagafura - The Support Speedster
Sagafura offers something unique - maxed Speed with very high Bump for a legendary. I've found this style perfect for setting up plays from the back court, quickly getting under balls to bump them perfectly for spikers. The poor spike and serve stats mean you're purely support, but that's fine if you enjoy that playstyle. Works best with a coordinated team that knows you'll be feeding them sets.
Yomomute - The Bump Master
Don't let the single maxed stat fool you - Yomomute's perfect Bump ability is clutch in defensive situations. I've turned around losing games by consistently keeping balls in play that other styles would miss. The decent dive and spike stats give you some offensive options too. It's not flashy, but reliability wins games, and Yomomute is Mr. Reliable when it comes to bumping.
Nichinoya - The Budget Defender
For a Rare style, Nichinoya punches way above its weight class with maxed Bump and Dive stats. I always recommend this to new players who want to learn defensive play without burning spins on legendaries. The good speed helps you get in position, though the terrible serve means you're purely defensive. Still, for a 35% drop rate style, you could do much worse.
Azamena - The Offensive Gamble
Azamena is the definition of high risk, high reward with great offensive stats but poor defense and speed. I've had games where I dominated at the net and others where I felt useless chasing balls. The decent serve and spike make it viable for aggressive players, but the lack of setting ability and slow movement hold it back. Only use if you have teammates covering your weaknesses.
C-Tier Styles: Use Until You Get Better
Kosumi - The Disappointing Legendary
Man, pulling a Legendary only to get Kosumi hurts. With maxed Bump and Dive but terrible serve and average everything else, it's basically a more expensive Nichinoya. I've tried making this work, but there's just no situation where I'd pick Kosumi over other options. The only saving grace is decent setting ability, but that's not enough to justify using a legendary slot on this. Reroll if possible.
Tsuzichiwa - The Jump Specialist
Tsuzichiwa's maxed Jump stat looks good on paper until you realize jumping is useless without other stats to back it up. I've tested this extensively, and while you can reach high balls, your slow speed and poor bump mean you often can't get in position to use that jump. It's playable in casual matches where positioning matters less, but in ranked? You'll struggle hard.
Iwaezeni - The Confused Style
Iwaezeni tries to be offensive with decent spike and jump but fails at defense where it matters. I can't count how many times the poor bump and dive stats have cost me easy saves. It's not terrible - just mediocre at everything without excelling anywhere. Use it if you have nothing better, but actively work toward replacing it.
Ojiri - Master of Nothing
Ojiri is the most "meh" style in the game - not good, not terrible, just... there. I've used it as a starter style, and while it won't actively hurt your team, it won't help much either. The balanced stats mean you can fill any role poorly rather than excelling at one. Only use while grinding for better options.
Hinoto - The Perfectly Average Starter
Regular Hinoto (not the Timeskip version) has exactly 50% in every stat, making it the most balanced style possible. I actually recommend this for brand new players learning the game since it doesn't push you toward any particular playstyle. Once you understand what role you enjoy, immediately replace Hinoto with something specialized. It's training wheels - useful initially but limiting long-term.
D-Tier Styles: Just... Don't
Saguwuru - The Worst "Balanced" Style
Saguwuru tries to be balanced but fails by being below average at everything. I've tested this against Hinoto, and it loses in every meaningful way. The poor bump and dive stats make defense impossible, while average offense means you can't compensate by scoring. There's literally no reason to use this over any other style.
Tonoko - The One-Dimensional Spiker
Tonoko has one good stat - Spike - and it's not even maxed. Everything else ranges from bad to terrible, especially the abysmal speed and set stats. I've tried making "spike only" work with this style, but when you can't get in position or set up plays, that spike stat becomes worthless. Avoid at all costs.
Kito - Run Fast, Do Nothing
High speed sounds good until you realize Kito can't do anything once it gets to the ball. The terrible serve, set, and spike stats mean you're just running around being useless. I've literally seen Kito players spend entire matches chasing balls they can't properly play. Speed without purpose is just wasted movement.
Yamegushi - Jump High, Fall Hard
Similar to Kito but with jumping instead of speed - Yamegushi can reach high balls but can't do anything meaningful with them. The poor spike and set stats waste that jumping ability, while bad defense means you're a liability everywhere. I tried this for a week and switched immediately after pulling anything better.
Haibo - The Absolute Worst
Haibo is so bad it's almost impressive. Terrible at serving, diving, speed, AND spiking, with only a decent jump that you can't utilize properly. I've never seen anyone successfully use Haibo in ranked, and for good reason - it actively makes your team worse. This is the only style I'd recommend spending Robux to replace immediately.
Abilities Tier List Bonus
Since we're talking about dominating in Volleyball Legends, here's a quick rundown of ability rankings:
- S-Tier: Minus Tempo (Secret)
- A-Tier: Boom Jump, Curve Spike, Moonball, Redirection Jump, Zero Gravity
- B-Tier: Super Sprint, Steel Block

Pro Tips for Using This Tier List
After grinding to level 50+ and playing hundreds of ranked matches, here's my advice for making the most of any style:
- Don't chase secret styles - The 0.1% rates will bankrupt you. Focus on getting a solid Godly or Legendary first
- Role matters more than tier - A B-tier style that fits your playstyle beats an S-tier you can't use properly
- Practice with commons first - Learn the game mechanics before burning spins on rare styles
- Save lucky spins - Only use them when you have enough for the pity system (usually 100+)
- Team composition beats individual power - Coordinate styles with your regular squad

Frequently Asked Questions
Which style should I pick as a beginner?
I always recommend starting with Nichinoya if you pull it early. The maxed defensive stats teach good fundamentals while being forgiving of mistakes. Once comfortable, aim for Bokuto or Kageyomo as your first Godly style - both are versatile enough to excel in any game mode while you learn your preferred playstyle.
Are secret styles really worth the grind?
Honestly? Only if you're a completionist or have money to burn. I got lucky with Sanu, but I've seen players drop thousands of Robux chasing secrets. The Godly styles like Bokuto and Oigawa are 90% as effective at a fraction of the cost. Focus on consistent improvement rather than gambling for that 0.1% chance.
What's the best style for solo queue ranked?
From my experience climbing to the top ranks solo, Bokuto or Kageyomo offer the most versatility. You need a style that can adapt when teammates don't communicate. Bokuto lets you carry through offense or defense, while Kageyomo's setting ability makes any teammate better. Avoid specialized styles like Kuzee in solo queue.
How important are stats compared to player skill?
Stats matter, but not as much as you'd think. I regularly see skilled players with B-tier styles outplay S-tier style users who don't understand positioning and timing. That said, once you master the fundamentals, better stats provide the edge needed for high-level play. Think of stats as multipliers for your base skill.
Should I save for pity or spin whenever I can?
Always save for pity unless you're brand new and need any upgrade from commons. The guaranteed Legendary at 50 spins or Godly at 200 spins beats gambling on regular rates. I learned this the hard way after wasting 300 spins without a single Legendary before the pity system existed.
What's the current meta for competitive teams?
The meta in July 2025 heavily favors balanced teams with: one pure setter (Kageyomo/Oigawa), two spikers (Bokuto/Uchishima/Sanu), one defender (Nichinoya/Kimiro), and two flex players. Having too many of one role creates weaknesses opponents exploit. Communication beats raw stats every time in organized play.
Can common styles compete in ranked mode?
Below rank 15, absolutely. I've seen Hinoto players reach decent ranks through pure skill. However, once you hit the higher tiers where everyone has good mechanics, stat differences become apparent. You'll plateau around rank 20-25 with commons before needing upgrades to climb higher.
When do new styles typically release?
Based on update patterns, expect new styles every 2-3 months, usually coinciding with major anime seasons or holidays. Secret styles are rarer, dropping maybe twice per year. The developers hint at upcoming styles in their Discord, so join for early information about future additions.
There you have it - the complete, no-BS tier list for every style in Volleyball Legends as of 2025. Remember, while tier lists provide guidance, your personal skill and teamwork matter more than having the rarest style. I've seen Haibo players (yes, D-tier Haibo) contribute more than AFK players with Sanu.
Focus on mastering your chosen style's strengths while minimizing weaknesses through smart positioning and teamwork. See you on the court, future legends! 🏐
