What Is Rerolling?
Rerolling is the process of creating a new account in a gacha game, spending your starting free currency on summons, and then restarting if you don't get the characters you want. Since most gacha games give new players a generous batch of free pulls, rerolling lets you "re-spin the wheel" until you land a strong start.
It sounds tedious — and sometimes it is — but a great starting unit can dramatically reduce the difficulty of early content and give you a competitive edge for weeks or months.
Why Rerolling Matters
In gacha games, the gap between a strong starting unit and a weak one is enormous. A top-tier character can:
- Carry you through story and early endgame content
- Reduce reliance on stamina and resources during progression
- Give you access to better team compositions sooner
- Make the game feel rewarding rather than frustrating
Not all games are worth rerolling in, though. If a game has fast progression or generous pity systems, the benefit of a perfect start is smaller.
How to Reroll: Step by Step
- Download the game and complete the mandatory tutorial.
- Collect all free currency — check the inbox, missions, and story rewards.
- Pull on the banner that features the unit you're targeting.
- Evaluate your results. Did you get a tier S unit? If yes, keep the account.
- If not, restart. Delete the account data (check settings for a data reset option), or uninstall and reinstall the app.
- Repeat until satisfied — or until you hit your personal time limit.
Tips to Reroll Faster
- Use an emulator (like BlueStacks) with multiple instances to run several accounts simultaneously.
- Skip cutscenes wherever allowed to speed up the tutorial phase.
- Know your target before you start — check a tier list first so you're not guessing.
- Use guest accounts instead of linking email/social, making deletion faster.
- Focus on games with short tutorials — some games can be rerolled in under 10 minutes.
When Should You Stop Rerolling?
Set a realistic goal. Aiming for the single best unit in the game on your first reroll is admirable, but it can cost hours. A good rule of thumb is to stop when you land at least one top-tier (S or SS rank) unit. Getting two meta characters is a bonus, not a requirement.
Also remember: gacha games are long-term experiences. Even if you start with a B-tier unit, you'll eventually build a strong roster through regular play.
Final Thoughts
Rerolling is a powerful tool, not a requirement. Use it if you want the best possible start, but don't let it stop you from actually enjoying the game. Once you've got a decent unit, dive in and start progressing — the real fun begins after the tutorial.
