Dragon Ball Super Divers Set 12 Tier List (2026 Update)

Dragon Ball Super Divers has no official tier list. Bandai describes individual cards in English news, but it does not label anything “meta” or rank pulls for competitive play. If you search “tier list” or “best cards” for Set 12, you will still find fan write-ups. This page tracks one named source, explains what its top five actually says, and shows how official rules can disagree with a numbered rank.

Is there an official Set 12 tier list?

No. The live service lists cards on dbsdv.com and posts set overviews on en.dragon-ball-official.com. Those sources cover launch dates, rarity structure, and short skill highlights. They never sort cards into competitive tiers. Any page that presents an S/A/B ladder for Super Divers is inventing a format the publisher does not use.

What does the dbfw-days Set 12 top five say?

The blog DBFW日記 (dbfw-days.com) runs recurring “strongest card” posts for each set. For Set 12 Innate Attack, the article 第12弾 最強カードランキング went live on 2026-09-19 (the page shows a later content refresh on 2026-11-10). The author ranks 35 Set 12 cards and counts down from #35 to #1. We reproduce only the top five slots as numbered on that page:

The blog often highlights ★ Alt-Art foils in the headline rank even when a base version exists. That is the site’s presentation choice, not an official rule that star cards play differently.

We maintain English profiles for three of these cards: Turles SDV12-011, Vegeta SEC, and Beerus SEC2. Vegito (Xeno) at SDV12-067 and Super Janemba at SDV12-064 appear on the cited list but do not yet have dedicated pages on this wiki. See the Set 12 overview for how those IDs fit the wider God Rare lineup.

Why does a “best card” list not equal your best deck?

Super Divers battles are team games on a three-area board. You bring one Avatar Card and up to seven Battle Cards (the machine can pad missing slots with virtual cards). Before any single card’s skill fires, you must answer placement questions:

Battle types (I / B / R / L). Impact fighters hit hard but guard poorly. Boost fighters swing initiative because their combat power is 1.5× the other types in official rules. Rush fighters manage ki and resist faint pressure. Limited (L) cards are powerful supports, but only one L card is allowed per deck. A list that praises multiple L-type picks cannot fit them on the same team.

Initiative and areas. After you assign cards to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd areas (up to three cards each), the side with higher combat power strikes first. A ranked “striker” stuck in a losing area may never attack. Support cards placed in the Support Zone fully recover ki, which changes who can sustain Strike Battles.

Triple Type Bonus. When Impact, Boost, and Rush share the same area, the game offers a timed bonus that can add damage. A lone top-ranked card without type partners in that zone misses the mechanic entirely.

BUPPA zone (from Set 7 onward). From round 2, the third area can become a BUPPA area with altered special-move rules and automatic Triple Type success inside it. Cards strong in early areas do not always stay strongest after the zone shifts.

None of that context appears in a flat top-five ladder. That is why overseas collectors should read rankings and the how-to-play rules before assuming a pull “wins the set.” If you have never used a cabinet, read the beginner arcade guide first.

How should you judge a Set 12 card yourself?

Use a short stack of sources instead of one blog rank:

1. Official English news blurbs for Set 12 list whether Bandai calls out a skill theme (damage, debuff, immunity, etc.). Start with the Innate Attack news post.
2. Rarity band on the Japanese card list tells you how many copies exist in the set structure, not your pull luck. The rarity guide explains Secret God Rare versus God Rare without fake percentages.
3. Battle type and stats live on the official Japanese card entry. This wiki does not republish HP, Power, or Guard numbers because dbsdv.com forbids copying its data tables. Read them in-game or on the official list when you need exact values.
4. Your actual team plan matters. SEC Vegeta’s described focus is special-move damage; Beerus SEC2’s is cutting enemy attackers’ Power; Turles GDR’s English blurb mentions three effects including stun immunity at battle start. Those hints help only if the card’s type and area fit the other six slots.

Bandai has not published pull rates for arcade dispenses. We do not list resale prices either.

How do the cited top cards connect?

The dbfw-days top five clusters around God Rare and Secret God Rare finishes from Set 12 Innate Attack, which launched in Japanese arcades on 2026-09-17. Vegeta and Beerus are the set’s two SEC slots; Turles is one of eight God Rare character cards with a possible GDR★ parallel. Their official English descriptions emphasize attack roles, not full deck recipes.

The game runs only in Japan today. After Set 13 Awakened Resolve on 2026-11-19, expect new mechanics to age older “strongest” posts.
