Full Mecha Break tier list and the best Strikers ranked (July 2025)

Our Mecha Break tier list has the best Strikers in the game ranked for the July 2025 meta. Now that Mecha Break is out, we're seeing a clear ranking of what Strikers are in the S-tier and which ones are struggling to catch up, though we've yet to see any mechs that are outright bad, indicating good balance overall. Still, the best Mechs in the S-tier are definitely outranking the others, and we're seeing a strong performance from the Heavyweight turret mechs as a rule. Meanwhile, Support and healing Strikers are struggling to keep up.

To help you with the best Strikers and mechs in the game, our Mecha Break tier list has everything you need to know about how they rank. Not only that though, but we'll also go into the pros and cons of each individual Break Striker, how to play as them, and what you need to know prior to launch!

Below you can find more details on each mech, but keep in mind that this tier list is a broad overview: while this tier list and ranking does apply, the skill of the player is far more important, and the broad variety of games modes and situations means that certain mechs will do better than others depending on context.

S-tier

These Break Strikers are the best in Mecha Break, reliably powerful mechs that are borderline unstoppable in the right hands.

Alysnes

• Rank: S-tier
• Class: Medium Attacker
• Combat Style: Versatile "close-the-distance" melee
• Pros: Can self-resurrect and heal, thrives in close combat
• Cons: Lacks good long-ranged options

Alysnes might be equipped with cannons, but its strength lies in melee combat, especially with the Armor Purge ability. The first time when reduced to 0 health, it immediately bounces back with greater speed and less armor. This free resurrection alone is enough to put it in the S-tier, and makes it one of the best choices for the Mecha Break Mashmak mode in particular.

Aquila

• Rank: S-tier
• Class: Heavy Sniper
• Combat Style: Death from above and far away
• Pros: High firepower and accuracy over distance, surprisingly tough
• Cons: Struggles in close combat

Aquila is a sniper who isn't particularly evasive, but isn't supposed to be. This is a long-range sniper who can punch massive holes in foes, using controlled flight and the Multilock Radar to rapidly pick off foes from a great distance. When approached, use the Pulse Claw to hamper your opponents and make your escape, or halt them long enough to line up some fresh shots.

Inferno

• Rank: S-tier
• Class: Ultra-Heavy Attacker
• Combat Style: Mid-to-close-range tank
• Pros: Durable with a high damage output
• Cons: Slow with few long-range options

Inferno is a bulky, hard to kill tank equipped with several shotgun-like weapons. If you can get close to enemies, you'll be very hard to shake off, as Inferno can evade lock-on attacks with the Booster Kit while using the powerful emitters to shred enemies and even kill their missiles before they hit you.

Stego

• Rank: S-tier
• Class: Ultra-Heavy Attacker
• Combat Style: Missiles and turret fire
• Pros: Incredibly tough, capable of missile barrages
• Cons: Can't dodge or evade very well

The sturdy tanks seem to be very powerful at the moment, and Stego's no exception. This brute uses rockets and missiles fired from behind smoke screens and protective shields upheld in turret mode to devastate any mech that gets too close. What's lost in manoeuvrability is made up for by sheer endurance.

Tricera

• Rank: S-tier
• Class: Ultra Heavy Defender
• Combat Style: Gatling gun turret fire
• Pros: Incredibly hard to dodge their attacks, capable of self-repair
• Cons: Slow, guns require frequent reloads

Tricera is similar to Stego, but the dinosaur names aren't the only similarity. Tricera is also an incredibly tough tank with a turret mode, but this Striker can generate shields and self-repair. It's actively quite hard to kill Tricera when it doesn't want to die, and this mech simply wins many battles through attrition.

A-tier

These mechs and Break Strikers aren't quite the best, but are still powerful, certainly capable of holding their own in the right hands.

Narukami

• Rank: A-tier
• Class: Light Sniper
• Combat Style: Agile, stealthy ranged killer
• Pros: Agile and quick with many retreat options
• Cons: Low defense, difficult to lose players repeatedly

Narukami's strengths lie in quick movement and are largely dependent on pilot skill. This is a mech where you need to keep a healthy distance and perform deadly attacks with the Beam Cannon, then use the Decoy Drone, Grappler and Camo to escape if any opponent gets too close – you're not especially durable, after all.

Pinaka

• Rank: A-tier
• Class: Medium Support
• Combat Style: Repairs and shelters allies
• Pros: Best healer in the game, decent range of options
• Cons: Lacks serious firepower (unless you can crush enemies with deployable cover), and requires your allies to protect you

Pinaka is probably the best in Mecha Break for a pure "white mage" option, fairly durable and gifted with numerous repair and healing weapons and drones. The Splitter shotgun you have isn't great, but you shouldn't be reliant on it. This is a class that's there to protect your friends, so they can keep you safe.

Skyraider

• Rank: A-tier
• Class: Medium Attacker
• Combat Style: Fast-flying bomber and assault
• Pros: Decent combination of health and evasion
• Cons: Not particularly strong in any one area, can be difficult to steer without practice

Skyraider is a transforming mech that mixes both decent armor and decent movement, turning into a jet that can then rain missiles on foes. The downside is that while fast in this form, Skyraider's not especially easy to control, and ultimately it can be difficult to fight foes when in Aerial mode. Still, on larger, more open maps, you can be a real asset to your team.

Stellaris

• Rank: A-tier
• Class: Light Brawler
• Combat Style: Fast melee strikes launched from an ambush
• Pros: Very hard to defend against without a shield, good maneuverability
• Cons: Lacks health and any ranged options

Stellaris can be summarized as "get the hell off me", with this small, sword-swinging mech appears out of nowhere to unleash a series of deadly hits. This mech is fast and has both camo and a grappling hook to get close (or away) from enemies, but their low health means they're never wholly safe.

Welkin

• Rank: A-tier
• Class: Heavy Brawler
• Combat Style: Big, beefy melee tank
• Pros: Most durable melee class, can wreck foes up close
• Cons: Struggles to catch faster enemies, an easy target, lacks range

Welkin is a slow brute with a huge axe who can survive the charge towards opponents and lock them into melee combat with their Jamming Pulse Ejector and Dueling Forcefield, the latter of which is effectively a box that you can seal you and your opponent inside. Once in, they're unlikely to escape, though Welkin's slow speed and front-facing shield means you'll generally eat a lot of damage no matter what you do.

B-tier

These mechs are generally weaker or more contextual than the others, though they can still be powerful in Mecha Break if used correctly.

Falcon

• Rank: B-tier
• Class: Light Attacker
• Combat Style: Fast-flying gunner and scout reliant on evasion
• Pros: Incredibly quick and agile, a good scout and fun to play
• Cons: Lacks any real firepower or health

Falcon is a transformer with their own Aerial Mode, but the problem is that while incredibly fun to play, it lacks the raw firepower to make up for the lack of armor. This is a mech that's best applied as a distraction and battlefield scout, using the Recon Kit to mark foes and hitting enemies from behind so more powerful allies can use the opportunity to charge in.

Hurricane

• Rank: B-tier
• Class: Ultra-Heavy Defender
• Combat Style: Slow, defensive tank sending out drones
• Pros: High health and survival
• Cons: Low agility and the worst of the heavyweight classes

Hurricane is the only low-ranking Ultra-Heavy mech on the tier list, largely because it doesn't have the raw damage output to match the other two, nor is it quite as good as surviving and enduring attacks. Still, the Decoy Drone and Turret Drone mean it can be good at holding certain points in multiplayer.

Luminae

• Rank: B-tier
• Class: Light Support
• Combat Style: Fast moving healer
• Pros: Solid healing power, Corruption is a useful wild card
• Cons: Easily shot down, lacks evasion to adequately make up for its low health

Luminae is a speedy, angel-like mech that fires out drones and mist that heal allies, though perhaps not as fast as you might hope. The flipside is that the "corruption mode" allows you to make all of these healing powers damaging against opponents, though not to any great degree. Ultimately this is a mech that isn't quite good enough at anything to be higher.

Panther

• Rank: B-tier
• Class: Medium Brawler
• Combat Style: Shield-focused melee fighter
• Pros: Usually wins fights with other melee mechs
• Cons: Lacks damage output to make up for lack of range

Panther goes in with a lance and several shield options, including the power to turn their shield into a smaller, secondary melee weapon. However, Panther isn't quite fast enough to avoid attacks or durable enough to survive them, making it a hard sell at higher levels of gameplay.

Serenith

• Rank: B-tier
• Class: Light Support
• Combat Style: Hit-and-Run confusion
• Pros: Orbital strike works well in PvE and against slower foes
• Cons: Doesn't work when playing solo or removed from team, disruption has limited applicability

Serenith's main goal is to bewilder and disorientate enemies, through a mix of the Orbital Targeting system hitting them from above, and the Disruption Grappler affecting the enemy HUD. Then you can mark enemies with the Recon Kit and escape, though ultimately all this doesn't do a huge amount to benefit the team. The best thing about Serenith is the charged orbital strike, which does very high damage to an area over time - assuming it lands.
