The Mimic Entity Tier List

S-Tier Threats

S-tier entities end runs fastest and demand dedicated study. Nejibishoma (Grin Demon) ranks S for chase lethality and narrow reaction windows — mandatory Grin Demon guide territory.

Enzukai ranks S among bosses for multi-phase arena pressure in Jealousy Chapter 4. Nightmare variants effectively upgrade any A-tier patrol to S in open ground.

Time investment learning S-tier tells yields highest clear rate improvement.

A-Tier Threats

Biwaki controls Jealousy exteriors — A-tier due to territorial patrol and squad wipe potential in courtyards. Kintoru A-tier on bridges and long halls where sight games fail.

Nightmare Hiachi upgrades from B standard to A — faster patrol loops punish lazy hub crossing.

Study Jealousy entities for A-tier detail.

B-Tier & Learning Tier

Standard Hiachi sits B-tier — deadly for beginners, manageable after Control mastery. Ambient jumpscare entities rank C — low mechanical threat, high focus tax.

Gamemode wave minions in Witch Trials vary B–A depending on event modifiers.

Do not skip B-tier practice — Jealousy assumes Hiachi skills transferred.

Tier Context Notes

Solo vs co-op: Biwaki tier rises in co-op when squads split outdoors. Grin Demon tier rises on mobile camera constraints.

Patches move tiers — Enzukai phase timing nerfs/buffs shift community opinion quickly.

Maps: maps hub correlates space with tier pressure.
