"There is no universal blood donor type. Donated blood is routinely classified by type as A, B, AB or O, and as Rh positive or Rh negative. In the past, people with Type O/Rh negative blood were considered universal blood donors. This implied that anyone, regardless of blood type, could receive Type O/Rh negative blood without risking a transfusion reaction.
But scientists now have a much better understanding of the complex issues related to reactions to incompatible blood donor types. Even donors with Type O/Rh negative blood may have antibodies in their blood that cause serious reactions.
Before a blood transfusion, small samples of the recipient's and donor's blood are mixed to check compatibility. Doctors refer to this as crossmatching. Despite all such precautions, adverse transfusion reactions may still occur."

there is no "best", but common blood types is considered better because if you get into the hospital and need blood transfusion, you can more easily get blood.
The most common in the 4 main blood types is O
then A and B
and the least common is AB (with the + more than -)
I have a AB+, and lucky for me, I haven't got any time I needed blood in the hospital.

Type AB-positive blood is called the "universal recipient" type because a person who has it can receive blood of any type.
So I say AB+ is the best blood!
It's also kind of rare.

Close to half the people have O+, so if you ever need a transfusion and blood is scarce, then that is the best one to have. Other than the transfusion stuff, there is no best.

Isn't it 0- because it's a donor and a receiver or something? I think the most common is AB+/-
