Updated March 3, 2026 KAIZEN Cursed Technique tier list reviewed following the latest Kaizen update. Cryofrost remains S-tier after recent buffs.
Want to know which Cursed Technique is actually worth your Yen in Kaizen? CTs are split across five grades — Grade 4, Grade 3, Grade 2, Grade 1, and Special Grade — and the best ones from the Curse Shop NPC can cost you days of grinding. Picking the wrong one is a painful setback, so I've ranked every CT in the game from best to worst, factoring in PvP builds, PvE grinding, Domain Expansions, and overall cursed energy efficiency. Check out my ultimate Kaizen Cursed Technique tier list!
Kaizen Cursed Techniques Tier List Summary
| Tier | Cursed Techniques |
|---|---|
| SS | King of Curses, Limitless |
| S | Mythical Beast Amber, Heavenly Restriction, Blood Manipulation, Cryofrost |
| A | Strawdoll, Cursed Flames, Curse Manipulation, Boogie Woogie, Rot Technique, Idle Transfiguration |
| B | Disaster Plants, Ten Shadows, Shock Amplification |
| C | Cursed Speech, Construction, Devil's Broom |
| D | Cloning |
You can find the summary of our Kaizen Cursed Techniques tier list in the table above. King of Curses and Limitless are the best Special Grade CTs for end-game and your ultimate Kaizen build goals.
If those are out of reach due to their high Yen cost, Heavenly Restriction and Blood Manipulation are excellent alternatives that remain competitive in both PvP and PvE. On the other hand, Cloning, Construction, and Devil's Broom offer very little value in combat and should be avoided or rerolled as soon as possible.

If you're just starting out, Idle Transfiguration is the best beginner-friendly Cursed Technique in Kaizen. It's a common CT, so it costs very little Yen, and it performs well in both PvP and PvE without requiring complex setups. Once you've built up enough Yen through grinding, upgrade to Blood Manipulation or Cryofrost as your first major investment.
You can change your Cursed Technique in Kaizen by purchasing a new one from the Curse Shop NPC using Yen. Keep in mind that buying a new CT will replace your current one, so you'll need to repurchase it if you ever want to switch back. There is no free reroll — every CT change costs Yen, which is why choosing the right one from the start matters so much.
The Cursed Techniques with a Domain Expansion in Kaizen are King of Curses, Limitless, Cursed Flames, and Disaster Plants. Domain Expansions are among the most powerful abilities in the game, which is one of the main reasons King of Curses and Limitless sit at the top of our tier list.
