Anime Rangers X is a game of strategy, patience, and smart investments. With collabs like DBZ and Chainsaw Man shaping the landscape, the meta will always evolve—but with this tier list, you’ll know exactly where to focus your energy.

Understanding the Tier System

This tier list ranks units by their overall performance across story, raids, and arena modes. We’ve considered:

  • DPS (Damage Per Second): Can the unit deliver consistent, high damage at max level?
  • Cost-Effectiveness: Does the unit’s performance justify its deployment and upgrade cost?
  • Abilities & Traits: Buffs, debuffs, and AoE skills that tip the scales in battle.
  • Synergy: How well the unit meshes with other meta favorites.

S-Tier: The Meta-Defining Units

These are the absolute must-haves. They dominate every mode and set the pace for the current meta.

  • Fire Fist (Secret): Still ruling the charts, Fire Fist is unmatched in versatility. With excellent DPS and wave-clearing speed, it’s perfect for farming and story runs.
  • Eclipse Sorcerer (Secret): A long-range powerhouse whose devastating magic makes raids and dungeons far easier.
  • Solar Fist (Secret): One of the best single-target units, Solar Fist shines against bosses and is a staple of top-tier comps.
  • Chainsaw Devil (Limited Secret): The highlight of the Chainsaw Man collab, this burst-damage monster tears through elites and is one of the most feared units in the game right now.

A-Tier: The Powerhouse Contenders

Strong, reliable, and often more accessible than S-Tier—these units can carry your team deep into the game.

  • Shadow Knight (Secret): Low-cost, high-value, and great for quick deployment.
  • Bunny (Secret): A budget-friendly powerhouse with surprisingly strong stats for its cost.
  • King Curses (Secret): Excellent at tanking and controlling large crowds, ideal for defense-heavy strategies.
  • Legendary Saiyan (Super): From the DBZ collab, this balanced unit delivers great stats across the board.

B-Tier: The Reliable Workhorses

Not meta-breaking, but dependable. These units shine when used strategically.

  • Killer Candy (Legendary): Balanced, effective, and affordable for mid-game players.
  • One Arm Pirate (Legendary): Specializes in boss-killing with strong single-target attacks.
  • Thunder Sword (Legendary): Great burst damage for clearing tricky waves of enemies.

Tips for Building the Best Team

  • Don’t Chase Just the Meta: A well-synergized A or B-Tier lineup can outperform a mismatched S-Tier team.
  • Stay Updated: New collabs and updates constantly shake the meta—follow Discord and socials to stay ahead.
  • Prioritize Rerolls: Unlock your units’ full potential by perfecting their traits through rerolls.
