Tier list

ZOO or OOF 2 Tier List

Use this role-first tier list to compare the verified Animal and Zookeeper loops without inventing a named roster or hidden power stats.

This role-first comparison framework uses confidence labels and a held named-entity ranking panel. The role-first best-fit method links to the evidence-aware animal hub. Best-animal questions are answered as role/use-case selection; the team/context section explains role choice and player-input planning without unsupported synergy ranking. Use-case cards, checked labels, and held exact-ranking state keep named ranks unverified. This is a role-first Animal/Zookeeper comparison, with use-case cards, a team-context section, confidence/checked labels, and held exact-ranking state.

Named animal roster

Details to verify

Update watch

future roster checksavoid guessed rankings

No target-specific animal names, stats, rarity, or unlock paths are verified yet, so the roster is not ranked as fact.

Team combo: No team-combo claim is made without a verified roster.

Ranking note: Keep this row unranked until target-specific details are available.

Team combo note

This game is role-based, not a verified roster builder

The current official description supports Animal and Zookeeper role choices, but it does not verify a team roster or combo system. Use the calculator for a player-entered round plan instead of a fabricated synergy ranking.
