Best Blue Lock Team Z players

Meguru Bachira leads the Blue Lock Team Z potential ranking with 1574 ELO points over 180 duels, ahead of Yoichi Isagi and Hyoma Chigiri.

The real battle sits lower down. A 161-point ELO chasm separates Rensuke Kunigami in fourth place from Gin Gagamaru in fifth, the sharpest divide in the entire ranking. Above that line, the top four hold commanding positions, while below it the remaining contenders struggle to make their case. Bachira's 1574 points put him 35 ahead of Isagi, a narrow but decisive margin that reflects voters' confidence in his technical flair and unpredictability on the pitch. Hyoma Chigiri rounds out the podium at 1484, followed by Kunigami at 1413. The bottom of the ranking tells a harsher story: Okuhito Iemon sits last with 823 points and a 23% win rate, while Gurimu Igarashi and Asahi Naruhaya hover just above him, all three trailing far behind the perceived elite.

This ranking draws on 4799 duels judged by 224 players across 10 Team Z contenders, updated on 10 October 2026. The votes sketch a clear hierarchy, with Bachira and Isagi positioned as the squad's twin engines of potential, Chigiri and Kunigami as solid second-tier threats, and a steep drop-off beyond the top four. If you have a view on which Team Z member holds the most promise, cast your vote and shape the outcome.

How this ranking is computed

Every duel won lifts a contender and every loss drops them, by an amount that depends on the opponent's strength: beating the leader is worth more than beating the last. It is an ELO, the same principle as in chess. Duels are not drawn at random — an adaptive entropy sort puts the least predictable match-ups first, which settles the ranking far faster than a full round robin. A worldwide ranking is only published past 30 completed plays. Known limit: a contender who has faced few opponents keeps an approximate score, and the bottom of the table moves more than the podium.
