- Stop The Tsunami block types run from Common up to the near-mythical Infinity tier.
- Higher zones unlock better blocks, so map position matters more than raw luck early on.
- Celestial and Divine spawn on timers, making spawn-camping the fastest late-game strategy.
- Event and mutation blocks can outvalue standard tiers when they are available.
- Best early target: farm the Legendary zone before chasing timed spawns.
Block Types Ranked: The Full Tier List
Blocks are the core progression engine in Stop The Tsunami. Each block you open determines which units you can pull, and the tier of the block directly caps your potential payout. Ranking block types comes down to three factors: the value ceiling of the units inside, how accessible the block is, and whether it spawns freely or requires special conditions.
Here is the master ranking, from weakest to strongest:
| Rank | Block Tier | Spawn Behavior | Value Ceiling | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 14 | Common | Free, starting zone | Very low | Skip after tutorial |
| 13 | Uncommon | Free, early zone | Low | Filler farming only |
| 12 | Rare | Free, mid-early zone | Low-mid | Fine for early units |
| 11 | Epic | Free, mid zone | Mid | Noticeable speed boost |
| 10 | Legendary | Free, deeper zone | Mid-high | First real target |
| 9 | Mythical | Free, center of map | High | Wealth-building tier |
| 8 | Cosmic | Free, hardest free zone | High | Gate to premium pulls |
| 7 | Secret | Free, hidden secret zone | Very high | Worth the detour |
| 6 | Celestial | Timed spawn, end of map | Very high | Camp the timer |
| 5 | Divine | Timed spawn, end of map | Extremely high | Contested by other players |
| 4 | Infinity | Special conditions | Top of standard pool | Rarest standard block |
| 3 | Event/Mutation blocks | Event-only | Very high | Situational |
| 2 | Admin block | Event-only | Any unit + server luck | Best when available |
| 1 | Premium store blocks | Paid | Can drop Infinity | Pay-to-skip option |
Standard tiers are ranked by consistent value. Event and paid blocks rank higher because they can shortcut the grind, but they are not always accessible, so treat the top four as situational rather than everyday options.
Early Game (Common-Epic)
- Goal: Build a baseline roster
- Free access, low risk
- Good for learning drop rates
Mid Game (Legendary-Cosmic)
- Goal: Consistent high-value pulls
- Push deeper into the map
- First taste of premium units
Late Game (Secret-Infinity)
- Goal: Chase top-tier spawns
- Timed spawns and competition
- Requires map knowledge
Where Every Block Spawns: Zone Map Breakdown
Knowing the zone layout is what separates casual players from efficient farmers. Free blocks are distributed along a progressive path, with each tier's zone sitting further along the route. The further you travel, the better the pool, but the harder the survival challenge becomes on the way back.
| Block Tier | Zone Location | Access Difficulty | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Common | Starting zone | Trivial | Available to everyone immediately |
| Uncommon | Short walk past start | Very easy | Marginal upgrade over Common |
| Rare | Further along the path | Easy | First block worth a deliberate trip |
| Epic | Mid-map | Moderate | Speed boost becomes noticeable |
| Legendary | Deeper zone | Moderate | Marks the start of serious farming |
| Mythical | Very center of the field | Moderate-high | Prime real estate, expect company |
| Cosmic | Hardest standard zone | High | Last freely available high tier |
| Secret | Hidden secret zone | High | Off the main path, easy to miss |
| Celestial | End of map | High | Spawns roughly every 10 minutes |
| Divine | End of map | Very high | First-come, first-served |
Celestial and Divine blocks do not sit waiting for you. They appear on a timer at the end of the map, and every player in the server is watching the same clock. Arrive early or lose the pull.
Zone priorities by session length:
- Under 10 minutes: Farm Epic or Legendary, close enough to bank pulls safely.
- 10-20 minutes: Push to Mythical at map center, then retreat before the wave.
- 20+ minutes: Camp Celestial/Divine spawn points at the end of the map.
How to Climb the Block Tiers: Step-by-Step
Block tier progression follows a repeatable loop. Master it and you will outpace players who wander the map randomly.
Farm the Free Mid Tiers
Start with Epic and Legendary zones. These are safe, always available, and build the unit value you need to survive deeper pushes.
Push to Mythical at Map Center
The Mythical zone sits in the middle of the field, making it the natural midpoint of any farming route. Pull here until your roster stabilizes.
Unlock Cosmic and Secret
Cosmic marks the hardest free zone, and Secret hides off the main path. Learn both routes until you can run them without hesitating.
Camp Timed Spawns
Once your roster can handle the end of the map, park near the Celestial and Divine spawn points and watch the timer. This is where the biggest standard-pool pulls live.
Rotate in Event Blocks
When events are live, event blocks often drop Secret-to-Divine tier units and sometimes include exclusive mutations. Treat active events as your top priority.
The best players run a loop: Mythical center pull, Cosmic/Secret sweep, then end-of-map spawn camp, resetting only when the wave forces a retreat. Consistency beats lucky one-off pulls.
Event and Special Blocks: How They Compare
Event blocks are temporary but often punch far above their spawn difficulty. When an event is live, they can appear freely across any area of the map or require a small activity to unlock, and their pools frequently guarantee Secret, Celestial, or Divine tier units.
| Special Block | How It Was Obtained | Pull Quality | Ranking vs Standard |
|---|---|---|---|
| Admin block | Admin event | Any unit, plus 2x-4x server luck | Above all standard tiers |
| Mutation event blocks | Event completion or map spawn | Any tier with exclusive mutation | Comparable to Secret+ |
| Standard event blocks | Free during event | Guaranteed Secret-Celestial-Divine pool | Comparable to Celestial/Divine |
| Premium store blocks | Purchased | High tier pool, possible Infinity | Comparable to Divine, always available |
A mutation block that pulls a mid-tier unit with an exclusive mutation can outvalue a plain Divine pull. When mutation events run, prioritize them even over timed spawns.
Best Value Events
- Mutation blocks: exclusive variants
- Admin events: server-wide luck
- Wheel-style events: free premium pulls
Skip These
- Repeats of events you already completed
- Low-tier event blocks after roster is set
Premium Blocks
- Paid option for guaranteed high pools
- Only route to Infinity for most players
- Evaluate against your free-tier progress first
Common Mistakes and Optimization Checklist
Most players lose value not from bad luck but from bad routing. These are the mistakes that cost the most pulls per session, followed by a checklist to keep your farming runs on track.
Top mistakes:
- Overfarming Common and Uncommon zones after the early game.
- Ignoring the Celestial/Divine spawn timer and arriving late.
- Missing the Secret zone because it sits off the main path.
- Skipping live events in favor of standard farming.
- Running deep routes without a safe retreat plan before the wave.
Session Checklist:
- Farm Mythical zone at map center at least once
- Sweep Cosmic and Secret zones each run
- Arrive early for Celestial and Divine timed spawns
- Check whether any event blocks are live before standard farming
- Retreat to safety before the wave forces a reset
Divine spawns attract the fastest players on the server. If you consistently lose the race, shift focus to Secret zone farming, which is uncontested but nearly as valuable.
FAQ
Q: What is the best block type to farm in Stop The Tsunami?
For most players, the Mythical zone at the center of the map offers the best balance of accessibility and value. Once you can safely reach the end of the map, camp the Celestial and Divine timed spawns for the highest standard-tier pulls.
Q: How rare is the Infinity block?
Infinity sits at the top of the standard pool and requires special conditions to obtain rather than a normal map spawn. For most players, premium store blocks are the more realistic route to Infinity-tier pulls.
Q: Are event blocks better than standard blocks?
Often yes. Standard event blocks guarantee Secret-to-Divine tier pools, and mutation event blocks add exclusive variants that can outvalue plain high-tier pulls. Prioritize events whenever they are live.
Q: Where does the Secret block spawn?
The Secret block hides in a dedicated secret zone off the main map path. It is easy to miss if you only follow the standard progression route, so learn the detour before your farming sessions.
