Shiyu Defense Tier List 2026 — Best ZZZ Agents

Looking for a Shiyu Defense tier list that mirrors real clears—not vibes? This guide ranks Zenless Zone Zero Agents for multi-wave Shiyu floors in July 2026, then links back to our live filters on the interactive ZZZ tier list.

What Shiyu Defense actually rewards

Shiyu Defense is not the same check as Deadly Assault. Boss score cares about single-target burst windows. Shiyu cares about wave clear speed, stun uptime, element coverage across nodes, and how cleanly you can swap without dropping buffs. That is why Agents like Qingyi, Rina, and Soukaku often climb on the Shiyu tab even when their Deadly Assault band looks “only” A or B.

When players search “shiyu defense tier list”, they usually want three answers: who carries floors today, which stun/support glue pieces are mandatory, and which F2P options still clear mid floors. Our Shiyu S filter answers the first. This page explains the why—and how to build two teams without burning every polychrome.

S-tier Shiyu cores (July 2026)

Miyabi remains the Ice anomaly queen for packed hallways. Yanagi enables Electric disorder and pairs with Miyabi or standalone Electric nodes. Zhu Yuan still deletes elites when Ether Attack is forced. Limited Attack and Anomaly cores such as Evelyn, Soldier 0 — Anby, Trigger, and Yixuan also sit in the S conversation depending on your account’s investment. Use portraits on the home board to compare heat bars side by side.

Stun and support that decide clears

Without a stun window, even an S Attack Agent loses score on armored elites. Qingyi is the default Electric stun. Lycaon still anchors Ice RES shred for Ellen / Miyabi teams. Lighter and Koleda cover Fire. On the support side, Rina’s PEN% and Astra Yao’s buff kit turn “almost clears” into stable three-stars. Soukaku remains the best free Ice ATK buffer—do not bench her just because she is A-Rank.

How to build a Shiyu squad in four steps

  1. Pick a damage identityAnomaly (Miyabi / Yanagi / Burnice / Vivian) or Attack (Zhu Yuan / Ellen / Evelyn).
  2. Add stun or shredQingyi / Lycaon / Lighter for windows; Rina / Soukaku / Astra for amp.
  3. Match Bangboo before chasing niche S BangbooSee the Bangboo tier list—Resonaboo, Plugboo, Sharkboo first.
  4. Build a second element teamShiyu nodes rotate weaknesses. One mono team will brick a node.

Budget and beginner path into Shiyu

If you are new, do not start by forcing Miyabi pulls. Clear early floors with Soldier 11, Piper, and Soukaku, then graduate. Full write-up: best ZZZ Agents for beginners. For boss-check weekly content, switch to the Deadly Assault tier list—the rankings diverge on purpose.

FAQ: Shiyu Defense tier list

Is this Shiyu Defense tier list updated for 2026?

Yes. We refresh monthly after major banners. Cross-check the interactive board’s Shiyu tab for the live S/A/B/C snapshot.

Why do some Agents rank higher on Shiyu than Deadly Assault?

Multi-wave clear, stun speed, and flexible element coverage matter more in Shiyu than pure boss DPS.

Do I need two premium teams?

For high floors, yes—at least two element identities. Mid floors can share a stunner and Bangboo.
