hololive Dreams Reroll Guide — The Redraw Gacha Explained

Rerolling in hololive Dreams (holodori) is different from any other gacha, and the difference matters. The game doesn't force you through twenty minutes of download and tutorial per attempt: right after the tutorial, the Redraw Gacha gives you an unlimited in-place redraw before the story starts. You never reinstall anything to reroll the starter — you just hit redraw. The catch is the psychology trap built into the system: the first pull is guaranteed to be the 5-star of the member you picked at account creation, and every redraw after that randomizes the five-star across the entire roster. So rerolling means gambling away a guaranteed card for a random one. This guide covers when that trade is worth it, the exact steps on mobile and Steam, how long each attempt takes, and which 5-stars justify a redraw. The banner logic behind it lives in the gacha guide.

Should You Reroll at All?

Short version: mostly no — keep the guaranteed pull, then reroll on the banners instead. hololive Dreams hands out a guaranteed 5-star of your chosen member, plus a random 4-star and three 3-stars (Wikipedia documents the starter hand). Pre-registration gifts add another ★4+ guaranteed ticket and 10 pulls' worth of diamonds. That's already a strong opening hand for free.

Rerolling makes sense in exactly two situations:

1. You picked your starter before understanding the game and want your guaranteed 5-star to be someone who fits your playstyle — but note the guaranteed card is tied to your starter pick, not the redraw result. The fix for this is a new account, which is a real reroll.
2. You're chasing a specific synergistic 5-star lineup for leaderboard/event play, and you're willing to trade the guaranteed card for a random roll at a different member.

The community consensus across Game8's reroll guide and the Sportskeeda reroll guide: for 95% of players, keep the guaranteed pull and spend your reroll energy on the Beginner Support banner wishlist instead. Our tier list explains who's worth chasing if you do go for it.

How the Redraw Gacha Actually Works

• The first pull is guaranteed to be the 5-star of the member you chose at the start of the game (confirmed by COVER's launch announcement: "At the start of the game, players can choose and obtain one talent of their choice at the highest rarity").
• You can redraw infinitely, but from the second pull onward, the five-star is random across all members.
• The rest of the hand (4-star + three 3-stars) also randomizes.
• Keeping the first pull = you start with your chosen oshi's 5-star. Redrawing = you gamble it for a random 5-star.

Full Reroll Steps (New Account Route)

If you're doing a true account reroll (to change the starter pick), the fastest route:

1. Mobile: uninstall the app (or clear app data). Steam: the save is tied to the install profile — the community-tested method is deleting the local save files under the game's user data folder and relaunching (verify against current patch notes, as the method has changed across versions; the Steam community guides track the current procedure).
2. Relaunch, pick your target starter member, play through the tutorial (roughly 5–10 minutes the first time if you skip dialogue).
3. At the Redraw Gacha, stop at the first pull — it's your chosen member's 5-star. Pull the Beginner Support and Running Start banners with your mailbox diamonds.
4. Evaluate: did you land the wishlist 5-stars you wanted? If yes, link your account immediately (Menu → Account Management → Set Link Password) so the attempt is saved. If no, reset and repeat.

Time per attempt: roughly 5–10 minutes for a first attempt including download, and about 5–7 minutes per repeat on mobile once you know the skip path (matches the community breakdown). On Steam it's slower because the ~50 GB install doesn't get deleted — account rerolls on PC are usually not worth it.

What to Aim For (If You Reroll)

If you're spending hours on this, target synergies, not singles. The strongest opening accounts pair:

• Rhythm core: Hoshimachi Suisei (score multiplier) + IRyS (GOOD→PERFECT conversion) + Tokino Sora (survival) — the top three in the 5-star starter analyses
• Park core: Usada Pekora (construction speed) + Houshou Marine (material drops)
• Same-attribute or same-generation members so passive synergies stack — e.g., two Gen 3 members trigger generation passives (see the team building guide)

Since the Redraw Gacha only guarantees one 5-star, most of your "reroll" outcome actually comes from the Beginner Support banner (three wishlisted 5-stars) and the Running Start banner (guaranteed 5-star in 10 pulls). A realistic god-roll goal: your chosen member's 5-star + one wishlist hit + one Running Start 5-star = three 5-stars in the first hour. That's the number the community guides call the "multiple 5-star start."

FAQ

Should I reroll in hololive Dreams? Usually no. The first Redraw pull is a guaranteed 5-star of your chosen member; redrawing randomizes it. Reroll a new account only if you want to change the starter pick or you're chasing a specific 5-star synergy for leaderboard play.

How long does a reroll take? Roughly 5–10 minutes for the first attempt (including the tutorial) and about 5–7 minutes per repeat on mobile once you skip everything. Steam rerolls are slower because the client install stays.

What happens if I reroll the Redraw Gacha? From the second pull onward the five-star is random across all 54 members — you trade the guaranteed card for your oshi for a lottery roll. Keep the first pull to lock in your chosen member.

Can you reroll on Steam? Yes, by deleting the local save profile and relaunching, but it's slower than mobile and not recommended unless you specifically want a new starter on PC. Community guides on the Steam hub track the current working method.
