Anime Crusaders Unit Tier List

S-Tier Units (Meta DPS)

• Sun Woo (System) – Ground, high DPS, summons shadows, huge range but costly to upgrade
• Igrith (Blood Commander) – Ground, works best with Sun Woo, buffs allies, amazing in Infinite modes
• Brulo (Rage) – Hybrid, strong AoE bursts, excels with multiple enemies in range
• Goko (Perfected Super III) – Hill, deals big damage to flying enemies, strong crit scaling

A-Tier Units (Very Strong)

• Shadow (Atomic) – Hybrid, big damage, works well with stun setups
• Chonin (Flame Master) – Hill, applies strong burn damage, bonus vs. Frozen enemies
• Lao (Heart) – Ground, balanced DPS option with solid stats
• Toju (Mercenary) – Ground, applies Bleed, strong against bosses
• Getu (Master of Curses) – Hybrid, summoner with great scaling and can hit flying units

B-Tier Units (Good but Situational)

• Boo (Ultimate), Slime (Demon Lord), Ant King (Shadow Fang) – strong DPS but expensive
• Enol (Drums) – useful against disabled enemies, scales with every 10th attack
• Ichi (Dusk), Haein (Sword Queen) – solid DPS options but slower and costly

C-Tier Units (Decent / Early Game)

• Rose – best budget Legendary DPS, very reliable early-game
• Golden Freezo – top Legendary Hill unit, though slower SPA
• Ureo, Yuji, Hie (Black Dragon) – usable early on but get outclassed later

Support Units (Must-Haves)

• AI (Idol) – cheap buffer, boosts allies
• Speedcart – core farm unit for Yen income
• Goju (Supreme) – high damage and stun support
• Shanks (Haki) – stuns enemies, good synergy with Enol
• Ukia – freezes enemies, excellent crowd control
• Koichy & GreyBeard – situational debuff supports

How to Summon Units

New units are summoned in the Summon Area. The regular banner rotates hourly, while limited banners feature rare units. Each banner has a pity system, guaranteeing a higher rarity unit after a certain number of spins.

Evolving and Upgrading Units

• Units evolve in the Evolve Area, requiring elemental stones and kill counts.
• Upgrading is important—reroll stats, traits, and curses to maximize damage.
• Traits usually provide consistent buffs, while curses are riskier since bad rolls can lower DPS.

The best strategy in Anime Crusaders is to focus on a mix of meta DPS units like Sun Woo, Brulo, and Goko, while also bringing reliable supports like AI and Speedcart. If you’re starting out, units like Rose and Golden Freezo are great early-game picks until you summon stronger Mythic and Secret characters. By evolving and upgrading wisely, you can push further into tougher stages and keep up with the game’s meta.
