How to Build a Haikyuu Team in Build a Volleyball Squad
Building a Haikyuu-style team in Build a Volleyball Squad means more than pulling rare players. Like Karasuno in the anime, your squad wins through tempo, role coverage, and trust between your setter and your ace. The game gives you six slots, a reroll system, and a pool of over 130 characters — many directly inspired by Haikyuu favorites such as Hinata, Kageyama, and Oikawa.

Each duel plays out in rally phases — serve, receive, set, spike — and your players' stats determine how well each phase goes. A squad with a legendary setter and a balanced rotation beats a lineup of six raw spikers almost every time.
Draft your setter first, always. Even the best spikers whiff without clean tosses — one high-rarity setter multiplies the value of every hitter on your roster.
Know Your Six Positions
A complete volleyball team needs all six roles covered. Here is what each position does and what to prioritize when rolling:
| Position | Job on Court | Priority Stat | Reroll Priority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Setter | Delivers tosses, sets attack tempo | Set accuracy | Highest |
| Outside Hitter | Main scoring outlet, covers serve receive | Spike power | High |
| Middle Blocker | Nets blocks, runs quick attacks | Block stat | High |
| Opposite | Secondary attacker, counters from right side | Spike power | Medium |
| Libero | Backline digs and receives | Defense/receive | Medium |
| Pinch Server | Scores directly off serves | Serve stat | Situational |
Do not stack only hitters. A squad of six spikers with no setter or libero creates weak rotation phases that lose points every rally cycle.
Rolling and Rerolling Your Roster
Rerolls are the core currency of the game. Knowing the difference between rerolls and refreshes — and when to spend — separates casual players from those with all-legendary squads.
| Resource | What It Does | Best Use |
|---|---|---|
| Reroll | Rolls a new random player for a slot | Upgrading your weakest position |
| Refresh | Changes the available player pool | When current pool has nothing you want |
| Codes | Grant free rerolls/refreshes | Redeem immediately — they expire fast |
Fill All Six Slots
Use starting rerolls to fill every position with any decent player. Early on, coverage beats quality — you need a functional squad to earn duel rewards.
Lock Your Keepers
Mark the players you're keeping before rerolling again, so you never accidentally sacrifice a strong pull.
Reroll Weakest Slots Only
Spread rerolls across positions instead of dumping them into one slot. A balanced squad wins more duels than one superstar with five weak teammates.
Stop at High Rarity
Stop rerolling a slot as soon as you land a high-rarity player or rare variant. Bank the rest.
Save for Update Drops
New stronger players join the pool with updates. Rolling right after a patch gives you a shot at brand-new top-tier units before everyone else.
Redeem active codes (fastest free source), win duels, join events, and log in daily for more rerolls. New codes drop with updates and milestones.
Best Team Comps by Stage
Proven six-player lineups grouped by progression stage — from your first roll to endgame meta squads:
Starter Balanced Squad (Early)
- Rarity: Common / Uncommon
- Roles: Setter, OH, MB, Opposite, Libero, second Middle
- Focus: All-around coverage, no weak rotation
- Easy to dupe and upgrade while you grind
Serve & Block Wall (Mid)
- Rarity: Rare / Epic
- Roles: Setter, tall MB x2, Opposite, Serve Specialist, Libero
- Focus: Score without a rally — end duels fast
- Shuts down enemy spikes at the net
Haikyuu Power Core (Late)
- Rarity: Legendary
- Roles: Elite Setter, Ace OH, Freak Quick Middle, Pinch Server, Libero, flex
- Focus: Fast-tempo offense around a top setter
- Built on Karasuno-style quick-attack play
Full Mythic Meta (Endgame)
- Rarity: Mythic / Secret
- Fill all six slots with highest-stat units
- Keep at least one true setter for consistency
- Raw stat dominance over synergy
| Comp | Stage | Difficulty | Win Condition |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter Balanced | Early Game | Beginner | Survive rotations, grind rewards |
| Serve & Block Wall | Mid Game | Intermediate | Direct serve points, net blocks |
| Haikyuu Power Core | Late Game | Advanced | Tempo offense before blockers react |
| Full Mythic Meta | Endgame | Endgame | Stat dominance in every phase |
Keep rare variants of weaker characters — boosted stats and extra abilities often push an average character into A-tier territory.
Duels: Winning in 5 Minutes
Duels are the fastest way to test your squad and earn rewards, but they punish sloppy drafting.
- Read the enemy comp at select screen — position tall middles against their main spiker.
- Score early, play safe late: aggressive serves first, then consistent receives and let opponent errors close it out.
- Don't chase every spike: over-committing to blocks leaves your backline empty.
- Upgrade dupes before chasing rares: a fully upgraded Epic often outperforms an unleveled Legendary.
Watch your matches to see which positions are losing points, and reroll those players first.
Every duel flows through serve → receive → set → spike. Diagnose which phase loses points to pinpoint exactly which slot needs a reroll.

FAQ
Q: How do I build a Haikyuu team in Build a Volleyball Squad?
Roll players to fill all six positions, prioritize a high-rarity setter first, then reroll your weakest slots until you have balanced role coverage. Later, aim for legendary Haikyuu-inspired units like a Kageyama-style setter paired with a Hinata-style quick-attack middle for tempo offense.
Q: What is the difference between rerolls and refreshes?
Rerolls roll a new random player for a roster slot. Refreshes change the pool of available players without spending a roll. Use refreshes when the pool has nothing you want, and rerolls when going for a specific upgrade.
Q: Should I keep rare variants of weaker characters?
Usually yes. Rare variants come with boosted stats and often extra abilities, which can push an average character into A-tier territory. Compare the variant's stats against your current player before deciding.
Q: When should I spend rerolls instead of saving them?
Spend in the early game to build a functional six-person squad, then slow down and save rerolls for update drops, when new stronger players are added to the pool before everyone else gets them.
