SS

Madaro (Edo Tensei)

Secret · Overall carry

Consensus best unit in the release meta. Heaven Splitter deals 500% Damage in a triple-range slash and his passives clear waves while shredding bosses.

SS

Cursed Lover (Pure Love)

Secret · Overall carry

Copies and stores up to four Active Abilities and fires a 300% Damage Love Beam, making him incredibly flexible and one of the strongest damage units.

SS

Valcrad (Unleashed)

Secret · Overall carry

Gains Crit, Range scaling, bonus damage to bleeding enemies and summons. Coffin Trap stuns a boss for 7 seconds, giving elite damage and control.

S+

Bon (Purgatory)

Mythic · Support / Economy

Top meta support. His food buffs Damage, Cooldown, Range and other stats while also increasing the money earned from defeated enemies.

S+

Starku (Primordial)

Mythic · Ground DPS

Strong Mythic damage with a powerful burst nuke that many other Mythics lack, making him a reliable meta DPS for tougher enemies.

S+

Igritto (Commander Starku)

Mythic · Ground DPS

Gains consistent combat buffs through Oppressing and can add extra Damage and Cooldown bonuses. Steady output over one big attack.

S+

Goju (Honored One)

Mythic · Support / Crowd Control

Nullifies attacks against himself, slows enemies, and uses Time Stop to control threats. One of the best meta support units on a team.

S+

Tango (Star of Festivals)

Mythic · Ground DPS

Strong Ground option with reliable coverage. Sits just below the top Ground units because his kit lacks a standout mechanic.

S

Noroto (Linked)

Mythic · Ground DPS

Gains Damage, Cooldown and Range during Nine-Tails' Cloak, with every third attack adding an AoE burst. Major power spike in longer battles.

S

Tojei (Sorcerer Killer)

Mythic · Boss DPS

Strong boss damage and Neutral typing hit different enemy types reliably. Cannot receive buffs, which caps his ceiling as a meta DPS.

S

Vegita (Super)

Mythic · Hill DPS

Strong Hill unit with good combat performance and multi-placement potential. Becomes stronger with Goku nearby.

S

Aneko (Queen)

Mythic · Hill DPS

Full AoE unit that deals more Damage as enemies lose health, making her excellent against groups and a contender for best Hill unit.

S

Shinaru (Butterfly Dance)

Mythic · Support

Strong meta support with useful team utility, slightly below Bon and Goju because her overall impact is less broad.

S

Yoto (Calamity)

Mythic · Ground DPS

Solid overall combat value that stays useful through longer stages, though without the standout damage or utility of the tiers above.

A

Itsugo (Dangai)

Mythic · Ground DPS

Strong base Damage that increases as enemies travel farther along the path, excellent on longer maps with extended progression.

A

Konpatchi (Unleashed)

Mythic · Ground DPS

Good Damage that becomes more effective against weakened enemies, helping finish targets and making him a solid offensive pick.

A

Gyutari (Upper Moon)

Mythic · Ground DPS

Full AoE with Poison and Blood Cut attacks that explode for extra damage around enemies. Strong vs large groups, weaker than top DPS.

A

Goki (Super 3)

Mythic · Boss DPS

Excellent boss killer. Builds Fighting Spirit stacks for extra Damage and Crit Chance, becoming very strong in boss-focused stages.

A

Bluma (Data Analyst)

Mythic · Economy / Farm

Top farming unit. Training Data eventually provides a 30% Income boost, especially valuable in Infinite Mode where economy scales.

A

Zeldo (Piety)

Mythic · Ground DPS

Can increase his own Damage and works well alongside Meliodas. Straightforward but lacks the utility of stronger meta DPS units.

B

Melio (Assault)

Legendary · Hybrid / Utility

Petrify, Burn, Slow, Damage buffs and more through his Commandments. He cycles effects, so he cannot reliably provide one specific debuff.

B

Oxi (Mage)

Legendary · Support

Provides dependable support and fills a support slot when you lack stronger options, but lacks the impact of the best meta units.

B

Mykie (Toman)

Legendary · Support

Can eventually provide a 10% Damage buff when placed as leader, but the buff is slow to build with strict placement conditions.

B

Itsoda

Legendary · Hill DPS

Useful Hill unit for covering airborne enemies from elevated positions. Good early on, but stronger Hill units provide more value.

B

Leorio

Epic · Economy

Refunds part of upgrade costs for units upgraded within his Range, making him a farming specialist rather than a combat unit.

C

Sosuke (Eternal)

Legendary · Ground DPS

Usable Ground unit while your roster develops. Weaker than the better Ground options and unlikely to stay on your team long-term.
