Rarity System: Understanding the Rarest Players
Build a Volleyball Squad features a roster of more than 130 characters, many inspired by Haikyuu!! favorites alongside original units. Each character comes in rarity variants that scale from Common all the way up to Mythic and Secret, the two rarest tiers in the game. Higher rarity means stronger stats and, frequently, bonus abilities that can flip a duel on their own.
The rarity ladder determines not just raw power but also how you should spend rerolls. A Legendary variant of a mid-tier character can outperform the base version of a top-tier one, so rarity and identity both matter when judging a pull.
| Rarity Tier | Drop Feel | Stat Level | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Common | Very frequent | Baseline | Reroll when possible |
| Uncommon | Frequent | Slight boost | Temporary filler |
| Rare | Occasional | Solid | Keep for mid-game |
| Epic | Uncommon | Strong | Core keeper |
| Legendary | Rare | Excellent | Almost never reroll |
| Mythic / Secret | Very rare | Dominant | Must keep |
A rare variant of an average character often carries boosted stats and extra abilities, pushing it into A-tier territory. Always compare the variant against your current starter before rerolling it away.
Top Rare Characters Worth Chasing
Among the rarest and most desirable units are the Haikyuu-inspired legendaries. These players anchor nearly every endgame squad because their abilities amplify the whole team, not just their own slot.
| Character | Rarity | Role | Inspired By | Standout Trait |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shoyo (Tiny Giant Style) | Legendary | Middle Blocker | Hinata | Explosive jump and quick-attack speed |
| Toby (King of the Court) | Legendary | Setter | Kageyama | Pinpoint tosses that boost spiker damage |
| Toru (Great Setter) | Legendary | Setter | Oikawa | Balanced serve and set stats |
| Ace Libero | Epic | Libero | Original | Top-tier dig and receive consistency |
| Wall Blocker | Rare | Middle Blocker | Original | High block stat for mid-game walls |
Elite Setters
- Boost spiker damage
- Control rally tempo
- Priority one for rerolls
Ace Spikers
- Highest raw damage
- End points fast
- Best with elite tosses
Defensive Anchors
- Rare liberos and blockers
- Keep rallies alive
- Punish opponent errors
Never reroll a Mythic, Secret, or Legendary pull. These rarities are rare enough that replacing them costs far more rerolls than the slot is worth.
Step-by-Step: How to Hunt Rare Players
Pulling the rarest players is a reroll discipline problem. Follow this workflow every session to convert rerolls into rarity instead of waste.
Fill All Six Slots First
In the early game, accept any decent roll to complete a full 6-person roster. An average full squad wins more duels than a half-empty team with one good pull.
Lock Your Keepers
Lock or clearly mark the players you are keeping — especially Epic and above — so rerolls never touch them.
Reroll Only Weak Slots
Target your lowest-rarity positions one at a time. Stop rerolling a slot the moment it lands a high-rarity player.
Refresh Bad Pools
If the current roll pool has nothing worth taking, use a refresh to change the available pool without wasting a full roll.
Bank Rerolls for Updates
Save rerolls between updates. When new characters drop, the pool briefly includes brand-new top-tier units before competition floods in.
Dumping every reroll into a single slot leaves five weak players losing points for you. Spread rerolls across positions — balanced squads win duels.
Rare-Player Team Comps by Stage
Rare players only reach full value inside a comp that covers every role. These proven lineups scale from your first roll to a full Mythic endgame squad.
| Comp Name | Stage | Rarity Tier | Focus |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter Balanced Squad | Early Game | Common / Uncommon | All-around coverage, no weak rotation |
| Serve & Block Wall | Mid Game | Rare / Epic | Score off serves, shut down spikes |
| Haikyuu-Inspired Power Core | Late Game | Legendary | Fast tempo offense around an elite setter |
| Full Mythic Meta Lineup | Endgame | Mythic / Secret | Maximum stats in every position |
The Haikyuu-Inspired Power Core deserves special attention: legendary setters dramatically improve attack timing, letting your ace and quick-attack middles land spikes before opposing blockers can react. At the endgame, once six Mythic-tier units are in hand, raw stat dominance matters more than synergy — just keep one true setter for consistency.
Always secure a high-rarity setter before stacking hitters. Even the best spikers whiff without clean tosses.

FAQ
Q: What are the rarest players in Build a Volleyball Squad?
Mythic and Secret tier units are the rarest pulls in the game, followed by Legendary characters like the Haikyuu-inspired Shoyo (Tiny Giant Style), Toby (King of the Court), and Toru (Great Setter). Rare variants of any character also count among the hardest pulls to land.
Q: Should I keep a rare variant of a weak character?
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 is the best time to reroll for rare players?
Spend rerolls in the early game to build a functional squad, then save them for update drops. Rolling right after an update gives you a shot at brand-new top-tier players before everyone else.
Q: How do rerolls and refreshes differ when hunting rares?
Rerolls roll a new random player for a roster slot, while refreshes change the pool of available players without spending a roll. Use refreshes when the pool has nothing you want and rerolls when targeting a specific upgrade.
