Anime Ascendants Tier List – Best Units [🐛UPD 2]

Updated on March 5, 2026: Added new late-game tier list with new units from UPD2.

Anime Ascendants is on the simpler side of Roblox Tower Defense games but there are still specific units that you need to get to be able to effectively clear the end-game. I'll show you the best units for both the mid and late-game. Here's my Anime Ascendants unit tier list.

Late-game Anime Ascendants Unit Tier List

These are the best end-game units in Anime Ascendants for when you can farm the most optimal unit for each category. Supports and Shield Breakers start mattering a lot more than in the early to mid-game. I recommend going for Assassin ASAP since he's such a useful unit for a bunch of reasons from DPS to starter and support potential. That said go for the Meta tier and if you cannot grind those units yet the sub-Meta tier is there.

Tips

Best Unit to Rush: Maka (Revenge), Megumin & Mahoraga and Itadori (Final Vessel).

Charmi (Love): High recommend this unit for Bulma money gain boosts and overall unit damage boost.

Guts, Griffith and Skeleton Knight: Guts and Griffith are from the banner and Skeleton Knight is from Act 4/5 of Berserk Raid. Get the Guts item from Radi Shop 250 Seal of Sacrifice and Griffith item from Berserk Raid Act 5.

Sukuna: Sukuna is from the JJK Legend Stage with 4 Acts and the new EVO is from the Sukuna and Yuji Flashback.

How to Get Rerolls: Buy from Shop, Complete all Level Ups, Challenges, Index Milestones and Pass.

How to Get Crystal Stones: The best way is Legend Stages but you can also find them in Challenges and Merchant.

Mid-game Anime Ascendants Unit Tier List

The best mid-game units in Anime Ascendants are based more on accessibility rather than optimal DPS. That's why I included easy-to-get units and Legendaries as well. Farm units still hold great value

  • S-Tier: These are for moving towards the end-game Raids and harder Challenges.
  • A-Tier: All of these units are the best for Story and can support other units for more difficult modes.
  • B-Tier: Excellent for beginners.
  • C-Tier: Underpowered units that need buffs or really good Legendaries.
  • D-Tier: Early-game units that you shouldn't use once you get higher-tier DPSs.
  • Farm: Fit into any team composition to boost cash (always good).

Miki: You can get a free Miki Exclusive unit by joining the Anime Ascendants Roblox Group.

Farm: I separated the Farm units from the DPS ones since they are always good to bring. Especially on longer game modes like Raids.

Best Legendaries: Currently, the best DPS Legendary is Touci while Orwin offers great support DPS.

Best Beginner: The best beginner units are Hosin and Megomu for Mythics and Touci and Orwin for Legendaries.

Best Anime Ascendants Traits

The best traits in Anime Ascendants depend on the unit you want to place them on. The three main categories are your META DPS units, farm units and regular DPS units. Here are the best traits for every unit category:

  • META DPS: For the S-Tier units above the best Trait is Ascendant or Singularity for maximum damage and only one placement.
  • Farm Units: Put Golden on your farm units for more cash.
  • Secondary DPS: Berserker works wonders for boss damage and overall DPS if you're not using Ascendant or Singularity. Slayer is another option since it's basically the same but slightly weaker.
  • Support: Orwin, Goju and Gambler are support DPS units so don't put Singularity or Ascendant on them and instead go for Supernova for more range or the Secondary DPS traits.
  • Beginner: Godspeed is an excellent beginner trait if you're not getting lucky. Strong III and Nimble III also work well if you're just starting out.
  • Avoid: Any trait below Godspeed including Expertion and try to get Godspeed or higher as a beginner.

That's it for now on this Anime Ascendants unit tier list. Check out our Anime Ascendants codes for a massive head start on the summons.
