Rainbow 67 and Black Hole Goat are the best brainrots in Escape Tsunami For Brainrots. These Legendary-tier brainrots have the highest income rates and are worth hunting for once you have the speed to reach their spawn locations safely.
This tier list ranks brainrots by their value-to-effort ratio. Some brainrots are technically worth more but spawn so far from base that you'll die to tsunamis trying to get them. The rankings account for both raw value and practical collectability.
S-Tier Brainrots
The best brainrots in the game. Worth going out of your way to collect.
| Brainrot | Rarity | Why S-Tier |
|---|---|---|
| Rainbow 67 | Legendary | Highest income rate in the game |
| Black Hole Goat | Epic | High value, spawns closer than other top-tiers |
| Cosmic Mutant | Legendary | Excellent income, reliable spawns |
| Secret Farmer | Secret | Massive value when you find one |
Rainbow 67 is the undisputed best brainrot. The income rate is significantly higher than anything else. The catch is it spawns at the edge of the map, so you need good speed upgrades to grab it safely.
Black Hole Goat sits just below Rainbow 67 but spawns in more accessible locations. For mid-game players, this is often the better target because you can actually collect it without dying.
A-Tier Brainrots
Strong brainrots worth prioritizing. Solid income without extreme risk.
| Brainrot | Rarity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Mythic variants | Mythic | High value, rare spawns |
| Late-game Legendaries | Legendary | Good income, moderate risk |
| Upgraded Epics | Epic | Reliable money makers |
A-tier brainrots are your bread and butter once you're past early game. They spawn frequently enough to build consistent income but are valuable enough to matter.
The specific brainrots in this tier change as the game updates. Focus on anything Mythic or Legendary that you can reach before the tsunami hits.
B-Tier Brainrots
Decent brainrots for mid-game progression. Collect these when better options aren't available.
| Brainrot | Rarity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Epics | Epic | Good value, common spawns |
| High-end Rares | Rare | Worth grabbing on the way back |
| Event brainrots | Varies | Depends on the event |
B-tier is where most of your income comes from during mid-game. These brainrots aren't flashy, but they're reliable. Grab them while hunting for S and A-tier spawns.
During Admin Abuse events, B-tier brainrots spawn more frequently. Stock up during events to boost your progression.
C-Tier Brainrots
Early game brainrots. Skip these once you have rebirth multipliers.
| Brainrot | Rarity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Rares | Rare | Only worth it early game |
| Uncommons | Uncommon | Filler brainrots |
C-tier brainrots are fine when you're starting out. After your first few rebirths, the time spent collecting these isn't worth the payout. Your multipliers make higher-tier brainrots so much more valuable that C-tier becomes a waste of runs.
D-Tier Brainrots
Avoid these unless you're brand new.
| Brainrot | Rarity | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Commons | Common | Almost worthless after rebirth |
| Low-tier Uncommons | Uncommon | Not worth the inventory space |
D-tier brainrots exist to teach new players the mechanics. Once you understand how the game works, ignore them completely. A single Epic is worth more than a full inventory of Commons.
Tier List Summary
| Tier | Brainrots | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| S | Rainbow 67, Black Hole Goat, Cosmic Mutant, Secret Farmer | Always collect |
| A | Mythics, Legendaries | High priority |
| B | Epics, High Rares | Collect when convenient |
| C | Rares, Uncommons | Early game only |
| D | Commons | Skip after first rebirth |
How to Get S-Tier Brainrots
S-tier brainrots require preparation. You can't just run out and grab them on day one.
Upgrade speed first for S-tier hunting. These brainrots spawn far from base. Without speed upgrades, you'll die to tsunamis before you can return.
Learn spawn locations. S-tier brainrots spawn in specific areas. Knowing where to look saves time and reduces risk.
Time your runs. Start your S-tier run right after a tsunami passes. This gives you maximum time to reach the spawn and return.
Don't get greedy. If you see an S-tier but the tsunami warning is up, let it go. There will be more spawns. Dead runs earn nothing.
Brainrot Value vs. Risk
The tier list accounts for risk, not just raw value. Here's why some high-value brainrots rank lower:
Spawn distance matters. A brainrot worth 10x more but requiring 3x the travel time isn't actually better. You could do three safe runs in the same time.
Consistency beats luck. Reliable B-tier income adds up faster than occasional S-tier finds if you're dying half the time going for S-tier.
Your upgrades change the math. Early game, B-tier is often better than S-tier because you can't survive the S-tier runs. Late game, S-tier becomes practical.
When to Change Your Target Tier
Rebirths 0-2: Focus on C and B-tier. Build up your base and speed.
Rebirths 3-5: Shift to B and A-tier. Start attempting S-tier when tsunamis are far away.
Rebirths 6+: Hunt S and A-tier exclusively. Your multipliers make lower tiers not worth the time.
During Admin Abuse: Go for everything. Spawn rates are boosted, so even S-tier becomes more accessible.

My Experience With Brainrot Hunting
After multiple rebirths, I've settled into a rhythm. Early runs focus on B-tier to build up cash. Once I hit rebirth 5, I started ignoring anything below Rare. The time savings add up fast.
The hardest part is resisting the urge to chase S-tier brainrots before you're ready. I died to tsunamis dozens of times going for Rainbow 67 before my speed was high enough. Now I only attempt S-tier runs right after a wave passes, giving me maximum time.
Admin Abuse events changed my perspective on tier lists. During events, even B-tier brainrots become worth collecting because spawn rates are so much higher. Outside events, stick to A-tier and above once you have the upgrades to reach them safely.
