Tier List: Best Units Ranked

Building a strong team requires knowing which units offer the best value. The current meta favors units with high damage scaling and crowd control capabilities. Use this tier list to decide where to invest your Gems and evolution materials.

T0: Best Units

  • Zid: Top overall carry with extreme damage and CC.
  • Storrk: High physical damage; excellent boss killer.
  • Megumo: Powerful DPS for both stages and bosses.

T1: Excellent Picks

  • Sun Jin Wu: Versatile carry with strong self-buffs.
  • Brolu: Reliable sustained damage for long fights.
  • Ichuga: High single-target boss damage.

T2: Good Options

  • Igrus: Solid progression unit.
  • Kirrua: Fast attacker with control utility.
  • Idol: Essential support for buffing carries.
Meta Strategy

Do not judge every unit by damage alone. Economy units like Bulla and Support units like Idol are crucial for reaching the late game where T0 damage dealers shine.

Units and Evolutions Guide

Evolution is the primary method for pushing units beyond their base stats. Evolving a unit often changes its appearance, significantly boosts its stats, and unlocks new abilities. You should focus your resources on evolving your main carry rather than spreading materials thinly across multiple units.

Farming Tips

Materials like Heavenly Wheels and Cursed Fingers are dropped in specific Raids and Legend modes. Check the evolution menu in-game to see the exact source for each material.

Top Priority Evolutions

  • Megumo (Ten Shadows): Massive DPS increase for a top-tier unit.
  • Sukuno (Curse King): Essential for late-game curse builds.
  • Sun Jin Wu (Monarch): Uses Raid currency, making it accessible.

Evolution Strategy

  • Stop at Base: For units you plan to replace soon.
  • Max Out: For T0 units like Zid and Storrk.
  • Check Meta: Always verify if a new unit outclasses your current evolution target.

Traits, Stats & Optimization

Once your units are evolved, further optimization comes from Traits and Stats. Traits determine a unit's passive abilities, while Stats define their raw power. Using resources on temporary units is a common mistake; save your Trait Rerolls and Stat Engrams for units you plan to keep long-term.

Upgrade TypeResourceBest UsePriority

Trait RerollsLimited ItemMain DPS / SupportVery High
Stat EngramsCommon CurrencyCore Team UnitsHigh
Resource Management

Avoid using Perfect Stat Engrams on early-game units. These resources are scarce and are most effective when applied to evolved units that already have strong traits.

Optimization Priority:

  1. Reroll Traits on your main DPS to get damage or speed boosting traits.
  2. Apply Stat Engrams to fill gaps in damage or survivability.
  3. Use Perfect Stat Engrams only on your finalized endgame team.

Farming & Progression Routes

Efficient resource farming changes depending on your game stage. Early game focuses on Gems to expand your roster, while late game shifts toward Evolution Materials and Stat Engrams.

Beginner Checklist & FAQ

New Player Checklist:

  • Redeem all active codes (Update5, SorryForShutdown)
  • Complete the tutorial and first Story chapter
  • Summon units until you have a strong carry (Zid/Storrk)
  • Upgrade your main carry to max level
  • Unlock and clear the first available Raid

Q: How do I get more Zid or Storrk units?

These units are obtained from the standard summoning banner using Gems or Lucky Spins. They are rare drops, so save your currency for banners featuring them or events that increase their drop rates.

Q: What are the best codes for Anime Final Strike?

The best codes currently are Update5 and 500KMembers, as they provide the highest amount of Lucky Spins and Gems, which are crucial for early progression.

Q: When should I start evolving my units?

Start evolving as soon as you have a core team of units you plan to use long-term. Prioritize evolving your highest damage dealer (T0 units) first to clear harder stages faster.

Q: What is the difference between Stat Engrams and Perfect Stat Engrams?

Stat Engrams provide a standard stat increase and are good for mid-game progression. Perfect Stat Engrams offer significantly higher stats and should be reserved for your best endgame units.
