Roblox Ryujin Tier List: Best Clans Ranked

I was three minutes into a 5v5 when a Hanma player flipped Demon Back and the match evaporated. You watched your strategy unravel as stun after stun landed — it hit like a sledgehammer. That moment taught me one thing: clan choice does more than flavor your build; it writes the story of every fight.

There’s always one player in chat loudly declaring a single clan the best. Roblox Ryujin Tier List – Best Clans

I’ll be blunt: clans are one of the pillars that make or break a Ryujin character. I play, test, and track progression on Discord and Trello boards; you’ll get opinion, not hype. Below is a tuned tier list that separates the pick-for-now clans from the pick-for-keeps.

I omitted several Legendaries and Rares that simply can’t compete with the picks above for general builds. If you have a specific combo or a gang setup, those off-meta clans can surprise — and yes, I track those cases on Trello and Discord. For most players, though, the table above is your short list for power and progression.

What is the best clan in Ryujin?

If you want a single answer that works in PVP and PVE, I pick Hanma. You get muscle gains that solve stamina management, the Demon Back mode gives massive AOE stun and skill-disable potential, and Total Violence stacks damage amplification, bleed, and debuffs. If you want a progression-first pick, Tokita speeds stat farming and doubles down on Mythic gains; if you want aggressive speed and PVP control, Mikazuchi’s Raishin setup rules close quarters.

When a match is lost in seconds, patterns stand out. Tier 1 Clans

Clan	Ranking Notes
Hanma Mythic	Hanma solves the stamina problem on its own: muscle gain slows fatigue and boosts damage scaling. Demon Back delivers the best AOE stun and skill lock in the game, and Total Violence amplifies damage with bleed and debuffs. If you want a versatile, match-winning clan, Hanma sits at the peak.
Tokita Mythic	Tokita is the progression engine: stat gains are faster and locked-in farming becomes twice as efficient alongside Mythic bonuses. Advance is a high-skill mode that pays off for grinders; Niko shines in PVP but lacks percent-damage scaling for some endgame fights.
Mikazuchi Mythic	Mikazuchi is the speed demon: faster dashes, rapid M1s with Raishin, and reliable DOTs. It accelerates strength grinding and punishes sloppy PVP opponents. The mode could be a touch stronger, but speed makes it a top-tier pick.

Which clan should beginners pick in Ryujin?

For new players, pick a clan that eases progression and cash flow. Biscuit and Hammer extend uptime by improving stamina and reducing fatigue; Sano and Choi are gang-focused but massively useful if you play with others. Zenin and common/uncommon cash-boost clans will shave hours off early grinds.

On most servers you hear the same names in team chats. Tier 2 Clans

Clan	Ranking Notes
Kure > Wu Mythic > Evolved	Kure brings Traditions FS and Removal, both meta for debuff chains (Avidya combos). Removal also helps sustain money/food by converting hits into hunter regen. Great pick for players who want consistent utility and extended combos.
Park > Yamazaki Mythic > Evolved	Park gives a suite of useful buffs plus Copy skill — playing with copied skills rewards mastery and grants small mastery gains. Yamazaki layers strong defensive buffs. Fun to play if you know skill timing, but less surgical than the Tier 1 Mythics.
Sta Legendary	Sta is the Legendary that accelerates progression: higher stat gains, attack-speed boosts, and faster movement speed for quicker jobs. Darkness Blow is serviceable, but most players pick Sta to grind efficiently into higher tiers.
Choi Legendary	Choi is the gang farm engine: it boosts money, damage, and capture speed for your entire gang. If you play solo, skip it; in a coordinated crew, Choi is meta.
Jang Legendary	Jang offers a pseudo-revive that can stun enemies at low HP, restoring a chunk of HP and opening combo windows. Learning Animal Instinct gives heavy bleed damage. It’s situational but powerful when you survive tight fights.

Early sessions are noisy with small wins stacking up. Tier 3 Clans

Clan	Ranking Notes
Biscuit Rare	Biscuit improves stamina and muscle gain, giving you more actions before fatigue. That means longer fights, better muscle scaling, and smoother early progression.
Hammer Rare	Hammer reduces fatigue gain so you spend more time farming. The Bite skill is an early bleed proc that helps clear mobs quickly.
Sano Rare	Sano is a gang-oriented boost to team progression. Every gang wants a Sano player for faster group gains; solo players will find it less rewarding.
Akezawa / Yamashita / Soo Uncommon / Common / Uncommon	These are cash and grind helpers. They shave time off early money farming and help you reach better clans faster. If you get a Mythic early, switch; otherwise they’re reliable starters.
Zenin Uncommon	Zenin boosts stat-grind speed—useful in the first 20–40 hours but replace when a stronger clan appears.

Final notes: I track balance notes on community Trello and active Discord groups; reading patch threads and watching a few YouTube creators who test Mythic interactions will save you time. Build cohesion should move like a Swiss watch when you mix clan passives, weapon choice, and skill timing.
