The Seven Deadly Sins Grand Cross

I. Tier Lists & Character Rankings

A. Tier List Overview

We rank characters primarily based on PvE dominance, versatility, and synergy. Top-tier units help with everything from floors in the Dungeon to Arena showdowns.

B. Current Tier Snapshot (as of mid‑2025)

Based on GameWith data:

  • SSS-Tier: Elite frontliners in PvE and PvP

  • SS-Tier: Meta-defining characters worth investing seriously

  • S-Tier: Solid picks with situational strengths

  • A–C Tiers: Ranging from specialized niche units to fallback picks

C. How Updates Shift the Meta

New characters or buffs can bump units dramatically—so it pays to eye upcoming banner releases before dumping investment materials.

D. Who to Reroll For

On rerolling (especially for global launch/new accounts), prioritize:

  • Seo Jiwoo—top-tier water unit for endgame clears and farming

  • Baek Yun‑ho—strong breaker with defense debuff capabilities

  • Demonic Plum Flower Sword—among the top-tier weapons

  • Emma Laurent—excellent AoE damage dealer, though watch its light element limitations 

II. Team Building & Combat Strategy

A. How to Build a Team

  1. Include a tank/defender, DPS, and support breaker.

  2. Leverage attribute advantages—water beats fire, etc.

  3. Build synergy with Association Links for passive boosts.

  4. Always balance your team for PvP vs. PvE depending on your focus.

B. Combat Mechanics You Need to Know

  • 7DSGC uses a card-based action system—you draw 7 cards and pick your 3-turn actions per round.

  • Ranking up cards by combining duplicates creates stronger abilities.

  • Positioning affects your turn order—increasing your Combat Class (CC) can give priority in actions. Learn card draw placement strategy to maximize early-ranked abilities.

III. Equipment & Enhancement

A. Gear Guide

Equip characters with the right combo of weapons, armor, and accessories depending on their role. Focus on:

  • Set bonuses—many sets boost the same stat across pieces.

  • Sacred Relics—rare. Grab them when available.

  • Prioritize gear enhancement on your top-tier team's best slot.

B. Awakening Mechanics

  • Using duplication fodder + awakening mats unlocks new potential tiers.

  • Also unlock costume customization & stat boosts—cosmetics don’t just look good, they help!

IV. Mastering Game Modes

A. PvP Arena & Tactics

  • Arena revolves around turn order, counters, and speed tuning.

  • Popular comps evolve—watch meta breakdowns to counter top lineups.

B. PvE: Story, Bosses, Guild

  • Efficiently farm the Story/Energy dungeon early.

  • For guild boss and Demon Beast events, coordinate debuffs—breakers and supports matter most!

V. Resource & Monetization Strategy

A. Free-to-Play Resource Efficiency

Smart F2P play means prioritizing:

  • Daily missions and event quests to farm EQ and Awakening resources.

  • Optimal banner pulls—knowing when to skip is just as important.

B. Gacha Insights & Spending Advice

Understand banners and pity systems. Don’t chase every SSR pull—sometimes skipping is the best way to stay strong long term.

VI. Advanced Strategy & Meta Trends

A. Endgame Optimization

Focus on critical damage & pierce rate for your main DPS, while tank/support picks focus on resist and survival.

B. Guild & Multiplayer

Join a proactive guild—be it farming content or participating in wars, shared rewards make a difference.

VII. Events, Updates & Community

  • Event banners and Milestones often come packed with collab heroes or limited captains.

  • Keep tabs on patch notes and dev previews for ROI on resources and future-proofing.

  • Follow content creators for tier updates and deck breakdowns—especially when new units drop.


I’ve played The Seven Deadly Sins Grand Cross long enough to know that staying sharp means staying-informed—tier shifts, reroll priorities, and event timing all define success. Use this guide to focus your development path, minimize wasted pulls, and build teams that crush both PvE and PvP.
