Clan tier list at a glance
Gaara is the standout pick in niceshampoo's Gaara-update ranking, with Uchiha and Lee also earning S-tier placements. Choosing a clan matters because its abilities, movement options, and progression can shape your entire build. This bloodlines clan tier list compares those leading choices with specialists that reward a particular fighting style.
The rankings below combine niceshampoo's post-update review with Donnie's Gaara-update review, published October 19, 2026. They concern Bloodlines on Roblox and developed characters. Ranges identify disputed or provisional placements; they do not imply that every reviewer uses an identical tier scale.
| Clan | Placement or range | Main reason |
|---|---|---|
| Gaara | S+ in niceshampoo's ranking | Sand abilities, automatic dodging, and broad usefulness across combat situations. |
| Uchiha | S in niceshampoo's ranking | Powerful eye progression and flexible builds for fighting, chasing, and escaping. |
| Lee | S in niceshampoo's ranking | Extremely strong combinations involving taijutsu and gates. |
| Ayrui | High A to low S | Both reviewers emphasize the strength of its lightning mode and mobility. |
| Yuki | High A from niceshampoo; SS from Donnie | Strong ice tools, with substantial disagreement over its overall ceiling. |
| Akimichi | A/S boundary, provisional in Donnie's review | Food reserves and useful attacks remain appealing after changes to its boulder move. |
| Uzumaki | A in Donnie's review | Useful base resources and improved sealing abilities. |
| Aburame | B to low A | Dangerous duel pressure, balanced against weaker mobility and broader utility. |
| Hoshigaki | Low C in niceshampoo's ranking | Water-based escape options provide a niche, but both reviewers criticize its overall strength. |
Why Gaara, Uchiha, and Lee lead
Gaara offers the broadest package in niceshampoo's assessment. The reviewer highlights its sand attacks, mode, automatic dodging, and effectiveness in group fights, duels, escapes, and reputation farming. That combination explains the S+ placement: its advantages cover several situations players regularly encounter.
The same review identifies promising combinations with taijutsu and Wind. One example links a quicksand pull into a sand shuriken attack. Those interactions make Gaara particularly attractive to players who want several ways to build pressure around the clan's own abilities.
Uchiha earns S tier through its progression and flexibility. Niceshampoo particularly praises Obito and Shisui Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan options. The review also describes builds combining advanced eyes with Rinnegan, or choosing a tailed beast instead of Rinnegan.
That flexibility supports several roles, including direct combat, pursuit, and escape. However, the reviewer rates individual eye variants differently. An S-tier clan label does not mean every Uchiha setup performs equally well.
Lee's placement rests heavily on its combo strength. Niceshampoo describes sequences combining barrage attacks, a fire-based grab, blue gates, and Primary Lotus. This makes Lee a compelling choice for players who enjoy connecting close-range attacks into sustained pressure.
Disputed picks and specialist builds
Yuki has the largest disagreement among the clearly stated rankings. Niceshampoo places it in high A, arguing that changes affecting greatswords and tailed beasts reduced the strength of familiar combinations. Donnie awards it SS and emphasizes the clan's own ice abilities, defensive options, and freedom to choose an additional mode.
| Comparison | Niceshampoo's assessment | Donnie's assessment |
|---|---|---|
| Yuki | High A; strong ice tools, with weaker supporting combinations after nerfs. | SS; versatile ice attacks and useful escape options. |
| Aburame | Low A; particularly threatening in duels. | B; capable, but less impressive beside stronger competing options. |
| Ayrui | Low S; outstanding mode, mobility, and reputation-farming potential. | High A or low S; still strong despite movement adjustments. |
Ayrui remains a strong mobility choice. Niceshampoo praises its speed, vertical movement, damage, and usefulness when farming reputation. Donnie reports changes to lightning leap's resource cost, cooldown, and height, along with reduced V2 cloak speed. Even with those adjustments, Donnie still considers the mode one of the stronger options.
Aburame is easier to recommend for duels than for every activity. Niceshampoo highlights bug pressure and substitution baiting, while criticizing its escape potential and performance in larger fights. Donnie similarly considers skilled play important to getting value from the clan.
Use these distinctions when narrowing your choice:
- Choose Ayrui for mobility: its mode receives strong praise from both reviewers.
- Consider Yuki for ice utility: both recognize its strengths, despite the large tier disagreement.
- Consider Aburame for duel pressure: its strongest case comes from controlling individual engagements.
- Consider Uzumaki for sealing: Donnie places its improved chains and useful base resources in A tier.
Akimichi also deserves attention. Donnie reports that its boulder gained damage while receiving a longer cooldown, a shorter duration, and a hand-sign startup. Its placement remains provisional because the review weighs those tradeoffs alongside its food reserves and regeneration benefits.
Clans and sub-bloodlines that need context
Older rankings can explain a clan's appeal without establishing its position after the Gaara update. Destructoid's November 24, 2025 guide identifies Uchiha and Hyuga as leading bloodlines at full progression, with Uzumaki and Ayrui close behind.
GhostlyReXxo's February 2026 ranking also identifies Uchiha and Hyuga as top-tier choices in its chapter labels. That supports their earlier reputation, while leaving their precise placement in later balance conditions unresolved.
| Option | Documented strengths | Ranking context |
|---|---|---|
| Hyuga | Destructoid describes Byakugan tracking, defensive rotation, and later chakra-stealing basic attacks. | Strong historical recommendation; a precise Gaara-update placement is not established here. |
| Senju | Destructoid lists extra chakra, an Earth damage bonus, and benefits involving Hashirama Armor. | Relevant to compatible builds, without a supported current letter grade. |
| Zetsu | Donnie highlights burrowing and regeneration associated with grass. | Situational utility with important terrain limitations. |
| Otsutsuki | Destructoid describes access to five skill paths, innate Byakugan, and Blood Weapons. | A sub-bloodline with progression tradeoffs. |
| Edo Tensei | Destructoid includes it among its strongest recommendations. | A sub-bloodline requiring separate consideration from starting clans. |
Otsutsuki and Edo Tensei also require a different comparison. Destructoid classifies them as sub-bloodlines acquired after character creation. Its guide warns that Otsutsuki disables many other bloodline passives and restricts Uchiha and Hyuga progression. Check those interactions before assuming that adding another progression path will strengthen your existing setup.
Reroll decisions and progression
Rarity and combat strength answer different questions. A rare clan may offer powerful progression, while a more accessible clan can still suit your preferred build. Lee's S-tier placement in niceshampoo's review is a useful example of why roll probability should not determine your ranking.
Destructoid recorded the following character-creation probabilities in November 2025. These figures are historical reference points and should be checked against the current game interface before planning rerolls.
| Clan | Reported roll chance in November 2025 |
|---|---|
| Uchiha | 2% |
| Hyuga | 2% |
| Uzumaki | 5% |
| Akimichi | 12% |
| Ayrui | 14% |
| Lee | 21% |
That guide also reported a price of 199 Robux per reroll and said bloodline changes were limited to character creation. Its age matters when applying those instructions: confirm the current menu's price, available currencies, and restrictions before spending.
A useful decision sequence is to choose your main activity, identify the clan abilities that support it, and then consider progression requirements. Only after those decisions should rarity influence how much effort you put into obtaining the clan.
Keep full progression in mind when comparing results. Uchiha's advanced eye abilities and Hyuga's later Byakugan benefits are central to their older high rankings. A newly created character will not immediately demonstrate the complete toolkit being evaluated.
FAQ
What is the best clan in the bloodlines clan tier list?
Gaara takes S+ in niceshampoo's Gaara-update review because it performs well across duels, group fights, mobility, and reputation farming. Uchiha and Lee also receive S-tier placements. These are community assessments tied to the balance conditions discussed.
Is Yuki S tier or A tier?
Reviewers disagree. Niceshampoo places Yuki in high A, while Donnie gives it SS. Both praise its ice abilities, but they weigh supporting builds and its flexibility differently. Treat Yuki as a strong, disputed pick rather than assigning it a universal grade.
Is Hoshigaki worth keeping?
Its clearest niche is movement and escape through water. Both recent reviewers criticize its broader combat value. It can suit a deliberate water-focused setup, but the reviews offer stronger general recommendations elsewhere.
Should I reroll a common clan immediately?
A common result alone is not a reason to reroll. Niceshampoo rates Lee at S, and both reviewers place Ayrui near the A/S boundary. Consider the build you want, the progression it needs, and the current reroll cost before replacing a usable clan.
