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.

S tier

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

B tier

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.

C tier

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.

D tier

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.
