This Blue Lock Rivals flows tier list ranks every Flow after testing them across 200+ hours. Flows are the difference between a good player and a great one. Trust me on this.
I ran Shidou without Demon Wings for 50 hours. Wondered why I couldn’t win aerial duels. Lost probably 80% of headers. The moment I equipped Demon Wings, I went from losing headers to dominating them. Night and day difference.
Your Style determines abilities. Your Flow amplifies them. Here’s my Blue Lock Rivals flows tier list for the current meta.
Quick Reference
| Tier | Flows |
|---|---|
| S+ | Destructive Impulses, Awakened Genius, Dribbler |
| S | Emperor, Demon Wings, Soul Harvester, Bee Freestyle, Prodigy |
| A | Chameleon, Buddha’s Blessing, Crow, Wild Card |
| B | Trap, Genius, Generic |
| C | Everything else |
S+ Tier
These Flows work with almost any Style.
Destructive Impulses
Newest addition and immediately meta. Boosts offensive and defensive capabilities. Works on strikers, works on playmakers, works on everyone.
Seen Destructive Impulses turn average Styles into threats. The versatility is unmatched. Someone in the Blue Lock Rivals Discord called it “the new Demon Wings” and they might be right.
Best with: NEL Rin, Kaiser, Don Lorenzo
Awakened Genius
The all-rounder Flow. Provides abilities from multiple other Flows combined. If you don’t know what Flow to use, Awakened Genius is never wrong.
Best with: NEL Isagi, NEL Nagi, any Style really
Dribbler
Best Flow for 1v1 situations. Enhanced ball control, better feints, smoother dribbling. If your Style has dribble moves, Dribbler makes them better.
I run Dribbler on NEL Rin. The combination of his Occlusion Break dribbling plus Dribbler’s enhancements is disgusting. Defenders can’t touch me. Went on a 7-game win streak after switching to this combo.
Best with: NEL Nagi, NEL Bachira, Don Lorenzo, Bachira
S Tier
Top-tier Flows that excel in specific situations.
Emperor
The shooting Flow. Raw power increase on shots. If your Style is about scoring goals, Emperor helps you score more.
Kaiser + Emperor is the classic combo. Charged shots become missiles. Scored from midfield twice with this setup.
Best with: Kaiser, NEL Rin, Kunigami, King
Demon Wings
The aerial specialist. Massive jump height boost and increased shot speed in the air. Headers and bicycle kicks become your primary weapons.
This Flow is mandatory for Shidou. Without it, you’re playing half a character. With it, you own every aerial duel. Not exaggerating.
Best with: Shidou (mandatory), Kaiser, NEL Nagi
Soul Harvester
Aggressive playstyle Flow. Rewards you for winning duels and taking risks. The more you attack, the stronger you get.
Perfect for players who never stop pushing forward. That’s me. That’s why I love it.
Best with: NEL Rin, Don Lorenzo, Shidou
Bee Freestyle
Designed for Bachira Styles but works elsewhere. Dribbling enhancements with unique movement options.
NEL Bachira + Bee Freestyle is the intended combo. The synergy is obvious and devastating.
Best with: NEL Bachira, Bachira, dribble-focused Styles
Prodigy
The safe pick. Boosts everything slightly rather than one thing massively. Consistent performance across all situations.
New players should consider Prodigy until they understand what playstyle suits them.
Best with: NEL Isagi, any Style you’re learning
A Tier
Solid Flows that work well in the right hands.
Chameleon
Adaptation Flow. Changes based on game state. Useful for players who adjust mid-match.
Best with: Versatile Styles like NEL Reo, Sae
Buddha’s Blessing
Defensive Flow with offensive moments. Good for controlled play over aggression.
Best with: Aiku, defensive-minded players
Crow
Underrated. Unique movement options that catch opponents off guard. Takes practice to master.
Best with: Speed-focused Styles
Wild Card
High variance Flow. Sometimes amazing, sometimes useless. For players who like gambling.
Best with: Anyone feeling lucky
B Tier
Usable but outclassed.
Trap
Ball control focused. Decent for Nagi Styles but Dribbler does the job better.
Genius
Weaker version of Awakened Genius. Use Awakened Genius instead if you have it.
Generic
Starter Flow. Replace it as soon as possible.
C Tier
Everything not listed above. If a Flow isn’t mentioned, probably not worth using.

Flow Strategy Tips
Don’t waste Flows on bad Styles. Wait until you have a Style worth building around. Flows are harder to get than Styles. Learned this the hard way after burning 3 Flows on Isagi.
Match Flow to playstyle, not just Style. If you play aggressively, Soul Harvester works even on Styles that aren’t “meant” for it.
Experiment in casual matches. Don’t test new combos in ranked. Figure out what works first. Lost 5 ranked games testing bad combos. Don’t be me.
