Best F2P Teams for Stella Sora: No-Spend Meta Rankings
You don’t have to be a whale to compete in Stella Sora! The game’s generous launch rewards and smart team-building allow F2P players to clear all major content and stay meta-ready. Here’s which teams to prioritize using only units that are easy to get through free pulls, codes, or reroll banners.
F2P Team-Building Philosophy
- Mono-element teams work best thanks to strong synergies and matching elemental strengths, mixing elements is less optimal.
- Focus on S- and A-tier 4★ or launch units easily obtainable via selectors, beginner banners, and free tickets.
- Upgrade your main DPS first, then add versatile and support units who don’t require duplicates or meta banners.
