Slayer & Demon Clans Tier List

Clans are the bloodline roll that sits next to your faction, Breathing Style, or Blood Demon Art in SLAYER by kriel (Place ID 134190081223854). This page lists both factions by rarity, copies community-documented passives for Rare and above, and explains how pity interacts with long-term builds. Common and Uncommon Slayer clans generally provide no combat passives—they are cosmetic or identity rolls until you climb the rarity ladder.

Cross-check styles on Breathing Styles, Demon kits on Blood Demon Arts, and finished loadouts on Slayer builds or Demon builds. Return to the Tier List Hub for the overview, or claim resources from Codes before a pity push.

Pity and reroll discipline

Documented pity on the clan reroll board:

  • Legendary or better guaranteed within 60 rerolls
  • Mythic guaranteed within 180 rerolls

Do not empty your currency the moment you miss a thematic duo. Many Rare passives already transform PvE and duel outcomes. Track your pity counter, decide whether you need a specific Legendary fantasy (Rengoku revive, Kokushibo crescents, and so on), and only then spend. Beginners should finish Getting Started so they understand faction locks before burning spins.

How to evaluate a clan

  1. Does the passive fire in your real fights? Burst windows, low-HP triggers, and “after untouched” effects need matching play patterns.
  2. Does it amplify your kit? Offense clans love Flame / Thunder pressure; defensive clans love Water spacing and Demon tank routes.
  3. Is the rarity worth the pity? Mythical clans are chase pieces; a strong Rare plus a style you mastered often beats a neglected Mythic.

Community framing for SLAYER still calls Breathing Styles and BDAs comparatively balanced for PvP—clans are the multiplier, not a replacement for parry skill.

Slayer clans

Common Slayer (no passives)

Clan
Ozaki
Kanzaki
Murata
Takada

Keep these if you love the name, but do not expect combat bonuses. Plan a future reroll toward Rare+.

Uncommon Slayer (no passives)

Clan
Tsuyuri
Kuwajima
Urokodaki
Haganezuka

Same rule as Common: identity without documented combat passives. Save pity for Rare and above when you are ready.

Rare Slayer

ClanPassivePractical note
AgatsumaSleeping Thunder: under 25% HP, wake up with +10% damagePairs with comeback play and Thunder mobility
UzuiFlamboyant Score: land 6 hits within 4 seconds for a burst equal to 3% max HPRewards dense M1 / multi-hit strings; Sound fantasy
HimejimaStone Prayer: take 7% less damage while not attackingGreat for patient defense and poke-and-wait
ShinazugawaHarechi Blood: +5% damage; reflect 8% damage from demonsStrong anti-Demon edge in mixed content
TokitoProdigy: +6% skill damageFlat skill amp for style-heavy kits
TomiokaDead Calm: first hit after 8 seconds untouched reduces damage taken by 25%Rewards spacing; natural Water partner
IguroSerpent Strike: +7% damage versus stunned targetsNeeds a stun setup from your style or team
KochoWisteria Venom: every 3rd hit applies poisonSynergizes with Insect-style hit cadence
HashabiraFeral Assault: stacking +3% damage up to 9%Commit to extended pressure
KanrojiEightfold Muscle: +7% M1 damageElevates basic strings and M1 confirms

Rare clans are where most players should stop and master before obsessing over Mythic pity.

Legendary Slayer

ClanPassivePractical note
UbuyashikiMasters Presence: allies within 30 studs take 6% less damage and deal 3% moreParty aura; excellent for group PvE
RengokuOnce per life: revive at 20% HP and gain +15% damage for 8 secondsSignature Flame fantasy and clutch PvP tool
KamadoOpening Thread: every 15 seconds, next hit deals +15% damageUniversal opener amp; flexible with any style

Mythical Slayer

ClanPassivePractical note
TsugikuniBreath of The Sun: +10% damage versus demons; every 4th hit sears 4% of max HPElite demon-hunting and high-HP target shred

Tsugikuni is the documented Mythical Slayer chase piece. It does not replace learning parries or forging a proper Nichirin.

Demon clans

Common Demon

Clan
Wakuraba
Susumaru
Mukago
Rokuro
Yahaba
Kamanue

Common Demon rolls fill the early roster. Progress Blood Level, unlock a BDA, and revisit rerolls when pity is close.

Uncommon Demon

Clan
Kaigaku
Enmu
Kyogai

Uncommon Demons bridge into the Rare tier where named arts and passives start to define identity.

Rare Demon

ClanTheme tag
GyokkoVase Art
DakiVanity
RuiSteel Threads
GyutaroPoisoned Sickles
NakimeBiwa Strum
HantenguSplit Emotions

Use these as flavor and kit direction while you raise Blood Level. Pair with the arts overview on Blood Demon Arts.

Legendary Demon

ClanTheme tag
KokushiboMoon Crescents
AkazaOnly the Strong
DomaFreezing Lungs

Legendary Demon clans are the mid-late chase for players committed to the night side. Build ideas appear on Demon builds.

Mythical Demon

ClanPassive
KibutsujiDemon King’s Blood: +25% regen, −5% damage taken; on kill restore 15% Blood and 6% Health

Kibutsuji is the Mythical Demon cornerstone: sustain, damage reduction, and kill-fuelled recovery. Respect sunlight even with this passive—regen does not erase daytime burns.

Suggested pairings

GoalClan ideasKit page
Flame offenseRengoku, Kanroji, HashabiraBreathing Styles
Thunder / mobilityAgatsuma, TokitoSlayer builds
Defensive spacingTomioka, Himejima, UbuyashikiSlayer builds
Anti-Demon huntShinazugawa, TsugikuniBreathing Styles
Demon sustainKibutsuji, Akaza, KokushiboDemon builds

Clans multiply good fundamentals. In SLAYER, a Rare passive you understand will beat a Mythical name you never lab with—especially when the lobby still rewards clean parries over rare stamps alone.

FAQ

Do Common and Uncommon Slayer clans have passives?

Documented Common and Uncommon Slayer clans (Ozaki, Kanzaki, Murata, Takada, Tsuyuri, Kuwajima, Urokodaki, Haganezuka) have no combat passives. Aim for Rare or higher when you need bonuses.

What is clan pity in SLAYER?

The documented board guarantees Legendary or better within 60 rerolls and Mythic within 180. Confirm counters in the live UI after patches.

What is the best Mythical clan?

Tsugikuni is the Mythical Slayer chase (Breath of The Sun). Kibutsuji is the Mythical Demon chase (Demon King’s Blood). Best depends on your faction and goals.

Should I reroll before learning combat?

No. Learn parries and finish Getting Started first. A mastered Rare clan outperforms a neglected Legendary.
