Special Anime Defense Tier List

Whether you’re looking for the best of the best or for the units you want to avoid, using our rankings below should help you decide on your team! I’ve listed each unit’s rarity level, as well as the type of unit they are (Ground, etc).

Please keep in mind that the game is brand-new, so the tier list below is a work in progress. With banners refreshing every 60 minutes, we can only summon and gather as much information as we can. New units are added to the rankings frequently, so check back soon!
