Anime Vanguards Tier List Breakdown

Here is the complete Anime Vanguards tier list, including the units’ rarity, role, Deployment Cost, and Total Cost:

SS Tier

The characters included in the SS tier of this Anime Vanguards tier list are broken. Using them guarantees that players will complete all game modes without much hassle. The table below shows all units for the SS tier.

Here are some of the outstanding units from the SS tier of Anime Vanguards tier list:

• Song Jinwu and Igors: It is one of the best DPS units that can summon units on the battlefield, which can buff its damage and range. Song Jinwu and Igros’s The Army’s Supply ability increases its damage by up to a maximum of 30% when he loses mana. The General ability buffs its damage by up to a maximum of 50% when allied summon units get defeated. Additionally, it increases his range by 20% and damage by 30% if no summoned units are on the battlefield.
• Yehowach (Almighty): This unit took its spot in the SS tier as one of the best Support units. Yehowach (Almighty) is immune to the Stun effect and remains as a solid defensive unit during early battle. Its Ashfallen ability can increase his range up to a maximum of 20%. Players only need 67k Yen to upgrade him to maximum during battle. The unit also increases his damage by up to a maximum of 30% for every status effect he avoids.
• The Falcon (of Light): The Falcon (of Light) is one of the best DPS units from the SS tier. It can apply the Repulse and Slow crowd-control effect on enemies, ignore foes’ damage reduction effect, and dish out high damage (up to 48514 at max level) in a wide range. It can also buff allies’ range by up to a maximum of 40% with The White Falcon ability. The unit’s Fantasia ability can also decrease the enemies’ damage reduction by 20%.

S Tier

The units ranked in the S tier are the second-best and best alternatives for the SS tier in the current meta. They can’t perform excellently in all game modes like SS units, but boost their performance. If the players’ roster lacks SS-tier units to build a team, pair them with the S-tier ones for best results.

See the table for all units that cemented their ranks in the S tier:

Here are some of the outstanding units from the S tier of the Anime Vanguards tier list:

• Conqueror vs Invulnerable: Conqueror vs Invulnerable’s kit has high range and area damage (AoE). It attacks multiple enemies in a cone-shaped area within its range. The unit deals 50% more damage while attacking bosses and attacks all enemies within its range, dealing full AoE damage.
• Slime (King): Slime (King) is one of the best free-to-play friendly DPS units from the S tier. At max upgrade, the unit can unleash a full AoE attack. When Slime (King) identifies an enemy with the Great Sage ability, it deals 40% more damage to them. Additionally, the unit gains a 30% damage buff for every copy of this unit that players place on the battlefield.
• Vigil (Power): This unit gains a 50% damage and 20% range buff. It’s You Shall Die! ability unleashes the Doppleganger ability as a follow-up attack while attacking enemies inflicted with the Stunned or Frozen effect. Vigil (Power) is also immune to damage debuffs, thanks to his Spark element.

A Tier

Players are advised to use A-tier units if they lack those ranked in the SS and S tiers. Free-to-play players can use them to clear most content smoothly. However, they won’t be able to tackle some enemy debuffs, are expensive for in-battle upgrades, or require a specific team to operate smoothly. The table below shows the list of all A-tier characters:

• Zak (Ape Giant): Zak (Ape Giant) has decent damage and area. However, one must pair him with other giant-type units, such as Giant Queen (Founder) and Aurin (Nuclear Giant). It’s Gigantification Yell ability gains 10% damage and 5% range buff for every ally converted into a giant. Additionally, it can buff the damage of all giant-type allies by 60% when players place this unit for the first three times. Moreover, this unit gains 50% damage and a 20% range buff after gigantification.
• Yomomata (Captain): Yomomata (Captain) is one of the best burn DPS units that can unleash damage in a wide area. Players can use him as a sub-DPS with other burn-type units, such as Karem. It can inflict the burn effect for 25% damage with the Head Captain ability. Additionally, Yomomata (Captain) can revive the defeated enemy units as skeletons. The unit’s damage increases by up to a 30% maximum for every skeleton on the battlefield.
• Divalo (Requiem): Divalo (Requiem) can 100% dodge enemy attacks with the Epitaph of Tomorrow ability. After that, he unleashes a counter-attack, dealing 50% of his damage to the attacker. Additionally, he deals 50% more damage with counter-attacks when the Complete Erasure ability is active. Divalo (Requiem) can also slow the enemies by 50% after Complete Erasure ends.

B Tier

The B-tier units of this Anime Vanguards tier list perform average in the current meta. Players can use them as a support for SS, A, and B-tier units. They won’t grant the best results independently since they lack proper damage output. So, C tiers can help with supporting units ranked higher in this tier list by debuffing enemies or applying crowd control effects on them. See the table below for all Anime Vanguard units ranked in the B tier:

C Tier

The C tier offers the weakest Anime Vanguards units in the current meta. One can use them if they don’t have any characters ranked in SS, S, A, or B-tier units. It’s advised to dispose of them as soon as possible and attempt to obtain robust units ranked in this tier list. The table below lists all C-tier units:

That concludes our Anime Vanguards tier list guide for September 2025. We will update this tier list with new units when the developers release new updates to this Roblox experience.
