I found this game few days ago and it's been really great, but Im struggling with finding proper character guides or tier list for current patch.
Are there any sites I should check? Any tips and tricks for new players? How to build proper comp, is it tank dps and support or doesn't matter?
Any kind of information will help :)

Since you are just starting comp doesn't matter all that much, just try to find the characters you enjoy/are good at.
Practise having all your purple items finished around the time the first night begins to know if you are doing a good time, some characters/builds are faster than others but that's usually the time it takes for most of them.
Once you feel comfortable enough with a character you can start thinking about wich late game items you want to customize the build based on your playstyle with them. (in game if you press P it will open the late game items tab where you can swap the list of your items for golden items, that's what I recommend edit based on your likes once you know what you are doing)
If you want any character recomendation based on playstyle let me know, dms open
My recommendation is: do not lost opportunities to get special materials. In a lot of my games I found myself full of special materials and gold rarity equipment, winning the game effortlessly. A lot of newbies lost themselves in the creation of their initial build, lost time, lost zones, don't know how to buy materials with credits. Once you get 2 or 3 special materials, in most of the normal games, the battle turns easy, so keep attention to were those spawn, were Alpha and Omega appear and to any purple box that land in the map
Pick a character that looks cool go to dak.gg and find a high ranked player that you enjoy. (Better if not from your region)
Then pluck the game id and use the in-game replay viewer to watch their game. Imitate them like a baby.
After you get bored of that character or route diversify to other routes. The more you repeat the process the more your overall game knowledge will increase.
I always recommended new players play Nadine xiukai and idol for animal timers food knowledge (health mastery) traps (trap mastery). That isn't necessary with those masteries being removed. It is a very simple flowchart game now.
But that is how you teach yourself the game properly.
After that you can make your own stuff and get it yoinked by a pro kr player in a tournament like I have ;)
Oh my... I didn't know you can watch replays. That's a game changer, thank you. This is sooo great, all my questions has been answered now :)
Well it's broken right now so... Good luck. Lol.
Still plenty of vods you can look around at. If there's a certain character you like I may be able to point you in the right direction to save some time.
It might sound stupid but try putting sticky notes on your monitor or have a notepad near with recipes. I used to have the first aid kit recipe written out and beverages on a little map. Like hey I get can carb honey here.... yadda yadda.
Lotsa Alex mains do this because of the lack of slots aswell for equipment.
Bucephelus is a one zone build for shoes right now and there are plenty of others that are fast easy craft mastery that will put you ahead or get you back in the game.
Like I said you'll learn this over time. It's not like it was so it really isn't required now if you want to be good. You won't be in any 2 zone full build swap builds as a team anytime soon.

Also dak.gg is probably the best statistics site. Team comps are usually split into frontline and back line. Frontline tanky characters and dps in the back.
