Building the right team is one of the most important steps toward clearing tougher missions in Bleach: Soul Resonance, especially as the game leans heavily on synergy, timing, and off-field damage. Every squad contains three characters, and the strongest teams follow a simple rule:
one main DPS, one support, and one secondary damage dealer who contributes from off-fiel

How Team Synergy Works in Bleach Soul Resonance
Before jumping into team lists, it’s important to understand how synergy functions:
- Damage Types Matter: Slash, Thrust, and Strike units interact differently with buffs, passives, and battlefield skills.
- Battlefield Skills Trigger Off-Field Effects: Several characters deal extra damage or apply buffs even while switched out.
- Carry-First Playstyle: Most high-performing teams revolve around leaving your primary DPS on field as much as possible. The other two only swap in to activate cooldown skills and return immediately.
With that in mind, here are the strongest teams you can build right now.
1. Meta Ichigo Bankai Team (High Damage, High Consistency)
Best for: Boss fights, late-game PvE, high-damage runs
Difficulty: High (three SSRs; one limited)
This setup is built around maximizing the field time of Ichigo Kurosaki – Bankai, easily the most explosive DPS at launch. His Hollowfication mode offers massive damage spikes, enhanced abilities, and survivability, making him perfect as a solo carry.
Kisuke and Byakuya rotate in only to fuel his damage output, then immediately step back.
Team Composition
| Role | Character |
|---|---|
| Main DPS | Ichigo Kurosaki (Bankai) |
| Support | Kisuke Urahara |
| Secondary DPS / Off-field | Byakuya Kuchiki |
Ichigo Kurosaki (Bankai) – Main DPS
- Heavy Slash damage with exceptional mobility.
- Hollowfication enhances every skill and protects him from being knocked out.
- Benefits greatly from crit-focused builds due to crit-conversion effects.
Kisuke Urahara – Universal Support
- Offers some of the strongest teamwide damage buffs in the game.
- Reishi Analysis stacks increase attack rapidly.
- His ultimate massively boosts crit damage, perfect for Ichigo’s hit windows.
Byakuya Kuchiki – Off-Field Secondary DPS
- Provides Slash damage buffs from off-field via battlefield skills.
- Noble Dignity passive increases his output when he’s not the active character.
- Ideal rotation: enter, cast, switch back to Ichigo while petals finish the job off-screen.
Recommended SR Replacements
If you’re missing premium units, these work well:
- Yachiru Kusajishi (SR): Off-field attack buff and Slash damage boosts.
- Rukia Kuchiki (SR): Crowd control and universal damage buffs.
2. Bleed / Wound Damage Team (Ikkaku & Tosen Core)
Best for: High-HP bosses, multi-phase encounters, DoT stacking
Difficulty: Medium (all SSRs, but no limited characters)
This composition focuses on stacking Wounds, triggering massive burst damage when detonated. It excels against enemies that survive long enough for damage-over-time strategies to shine.
Team Composition
| Role | Character |
|---|---|
| Primary DPS | Ikkaku Madarame |
| Off-field Trigger | Kaname Tosen |
| Support | Kisuke Urahara |
Ikkaku Madarame – Main DPS (Thrust/AoE)
- Fantastic at hitting large groups and applying Wound stacks at scale.
- Bankai transformation dramatically increases his attack range and enhances skills.
- Works perfectly with Tosen due to shared Thrust synergy.
Kaname Tosen – Off-Field Co-Strike Engine
- Battlefield skill grants Thrust damage bonuses to the whole team.
- Performs off-field follow-up attacks whenever allies deal Thrust damage.
- Easily caps Wound stacks, enabling huge detonations during his ultimate.
Kisuke Urahara – Universal Buffer
- No dedicated bleed support exists yet, so Kisuke remains the best partner.
- Provides stable buff uptime without needing long field presence.
SR Replacements (If Missing SSRs)
- Uryu Ishida: Good off-field damage and teamwide buff.
- Orihime Inoue: Shields, healing, and entry-based damage bonuses.
- Renji Abarai: Thrust-type DPS if you lack Ikkaku.
3. Strike Damage Team (Yoruichi & Komamura Core)
Best for: Balanced gameplay, fast rotations, mobile combat
Difficulty: Medium–High
This team takes advantage of the natural synergy between the two Strike-based SSRs. It offers reliable damage, excellent mobility, and flexible rotations.
Team Composition
| Role | Character |
|---|---|
| Main On-field Unit | Yoruichi Shihoin |
| Burst DPS (Field & Off-field) | Sajin Komamura |
| Support | Kisuke Urahara |
Yoruichi Shihoin – Primary Strike DPS
- Extremely fast combos and fluid mobility.
- Generates Spiritual Pressure quickly, letting her cycle special attacks often.
- Dodging enemy attacks fuels bonus pressure for additional damage windows.
Sajin Komamura – Secondary DPS / Transformation Finisher
- Functions mostly off-field early, triggering follow-up attacks when Strike allies finish combos.
- Gradually builds “Build Up” stacks to empower his Bankai transformation.
- Once transformed, he becomes the primary nuke dealer for a short burst phase.
Kisuke Urahara – Support
- Enables consistent damage spikes regardless of the team’s attack type.
- Ideal for quick-swap rotations since his buffs require minimal on-field time.
SR Placeholder
Nemu Kurotsuchi: Strike damage buff on ultimate; strong budget support.
4. F2P-Friendly Crowd Control Team
Best for: Campaign farming, daily challenges, mob stages
Difficulty: Easy–Medium
This team relies on freezing, slowing, and overwhelming burst damage to manage large waves.
Team Composition
| Role | Character |
|---|---|
| Control | Rukia Kuchiki |
| Burst DPS | Nemu Kurotsuchi |
| AoE DPS | Renji Abarai |
Rukia Kuchiki: Freeze control and all-damage buffs.
Nemu Kurotsuchi: Burst windows after Rukia locks enemies in place.
Renji Abarai: Large sweeping Thrust attacks for crowd clearing.

5. Beginner Starter Team (Guaranteed & Story Units)
Best for: Early game, new accounts, low investment
Difficulty: Easy (all are guaranteed or common)
New players often need consistent damage and a defensive fallback. This trio provides both.
Team Composition
| Role | Character |
|---|---|
| Entry DPS | Ichigo Kurosaki (Shikai) |
| Ranged DPS | Uryu Ishida |
| Tank / Utility | Chad |
Ichigo (Shikai): Solid frontline DPS with reliable combos.
Uryu Ishida: Excellent ranged attacks, AoE skills, and easy upgrades.
Chad: Provides shields, durability, and safety for harder story missions.
Choosing SR Replacements When Lacking SSR Units
If you’re missing top-tier SSR characters, the following SR options fill gaps very well:
- Yachiru Kusajishi – Fantastic off-field support with attack boosts.
- Rukia Kuchiki – Strong universal buffing and freeze utility.
- Orihime Inoue – Shields, healing, and smooth survivability.
- Uryu Ishida – Good thrust-based off-field damage.
- Renji Abarai – Alternative Thrust DPS when lacking Ikkaku.
All of these allow you to emulate high-end team structures until your roster improves.
