Stay Hard Run tier list and character roles
Use a role-first comparison for stronger and legendary character progression. Exact character tiers are held because the public description has no named roster, stats, or unlock table.
Quick answer
Stay Hard Run tier list: no exact S/A/B ranking is published yet
The safe role-first character comparison today identifies whether a character helps endurance, carrying weights, points, miles, or rebirth progress. Evidence badges are official description, reported, or not listed until named roster data appears.
Exact rankings are held until a named roster, stats, and unlock evidence can support a fair comparison.
Role, progress fit, and evidence
Compare a named character by the progression job it helps, the resources it affects, and the evidence attached to the claim. Do not invent a tier when the roster is not listed.
Evidence badges
