Anime Paradox Tier List – Best Units [FEB5 UPD]

Updated on February 10, 2026: Updated the tier list according to the new buffs/nerfs and added how to farm Trait RRS.

I’ll be ranking all units based on their EVO forms and assuming best rolled stats for DPS, Support and Farm categories. In general, you’ll need at least one support, one farm and fill the rest with DPS units. Here’s my Anime Paradox tier list and guide.

Anime Paradox Best Unit Tier List

The best units in Anime Paradox depend on what role you need whether it’s DPS, Support, Farm or starter/beginner. In general, the best units are in the Meta or S-Tier. That said, supports matter as well since enemies will do chip damage to your units every wave. This means that you should bring at least one healer from the support section for harder modes. Not all supports are healers though since Ulquiarro or Kirrua also slow or stun enemies. Let’s dive into each individual unit below and discuss their rankings.

Disclaimer: I’m assuming EVO and best rolled stats when ranking these units.

Best for Infinite/Siege: Zid, Storrk, SJW, Igrus, Brolu.

Best Beginner/Easy EVO Units: Kirrua, Asto, Melio, Itachi, Ciel, Megumin, Sky, Idol, Steel.

Meta Units

Meta Units	Ranking Notes
Storrk (Resurreccion) Banner Paradox	• The strongest unit in the game with the best health, damage and range • Basically hits the entire map though not like Zid with full AOE and instead chases down all enemies • Also has the Metralleta nuke that deletes almost anything on the level including dealing a massive HP chunk out of almost any boss • Critical attacks also extend each hit’s range after each hit by 20% • Amazing for Infinite/Siege
Zid (Atomic) Banner Secret	• The most powerful Secret in the game and the top 3 best unit in the game • Zid hits the entire map once you upgrade him to All Range Atomic • He’s also one of the most tankiest units in the game with massive Full AOE DPS and of course range • Amazing for Infinite/Siege
Sun Jin Wu (Monarch) Raid Act 3 Secret	• An extremely powerful DPS unit that’s a bit slow to get going and requires Igrus for the full potential • On his own he’s quite strong having a self massive damage/CDR/Lifesteal self buff on low HP and executing non-boss enemies • He slowly stacks on-kill gaining damage, CDR, Lifesteal, execute threshold and buff threshold/duration at certain kill stack counts • This alone makes him extremely powerful in longer modes like Infinite and one of the best units in the game • That said, if you have Igrus he’ll stack twice as fast becoming viable for faster modes as well

S-Tier DPS

S-Tier DPS Units	Ranking Notes
Igrus (Elite Knight) Siege Shop Secret	• Stacks a damage buff on-kill for up to a 100% damage increase • Also has a self-heal and deals heavy Bleed damage • Also synergizes with Sun Jin Wu in two ways • First, he deals more damage to enemies above 40% HP which gets them lower faster for SJW’s execute • Second, if you also have SJW placed Igrus gains more damage and CDR • He’s not as reliant on SJW as SJW is on Igrus for speed since without SJW Igrus still gets a damage reduction buff • That said Igrus has a much lower power potential than SJW
Ichuga (Vasto Lorde) Legend Stage Hollow Act 3 Secret	• A solo carry unit dealing massive Bleed damage on-hit and has a self damage buff • Plus, the buff also self-heals him every 15 seconds so he can take a lot of hits • The self-sustain makes him really tanky so he can hold his own if there’s no healer nearby (You still need a healer) • Outdamages Mythics since he can deal anywhere from 10k DPS to 20k depending on if his buff and bleeds are active • That said weaker than SJW and Igrus in a longer game since they outscale Ichuga

A-Tier DPS

A-Tier DPS Units	Ranking Notes
Brolu (Super) Banner Mythic	• One of the best Mythics in the game for AOE • Takes a while to get going since he’s a stack-based unit that buffs his own damage on-kill • You’ll need 25 kills to reach the threshold for Unstable Power which doubles all the damage buffs • With his base moves this makes him deal massive AOE damage and some of the best AOE DPS in the game • He’s not S-Tier though because Unstable Power has a 30-second cooldown • Amazing for Infinite/Siege
Kirrua (Godspeed) Banner Mythic	• Has both stuns on attack and marks enemies to take more damage from all sources for excellent support potential • That said he also deals great DPS so he’s a DPS/Support hybrid • This is due to high attack speed that scales really well with his Godspeed self buff on every 8th attack to gain damage and more CDR for massive DPS
Ciel (Super) Banner Mythic	• Really easy to EVO and I recommend you EVO him first • Viable DPS across all upgrade levels stacking damage and HP on kill • He even self-heals and buffs his speed at max stacks which is pretty good • That said, what makes him really strong is that he becomes Full AOE on upgrade • Overall, the best beginner unit in the game that I would rush to EVO outclassed only by Meta and S-Tiers
Ulquiarro (Murcielago) Banner Mythic	• Ulquiarro is a slow-type support with his Fear effect that reduces movement speed by 40% in an AOE every 8 kills • He’s also very tanky because both hitting enemies with Fear and his High Speed Regeneration passive actually heal • You want to keep him above 80% for a damage buff too so he’s a Support DPS hybrid leaning toward the Support side more
Asto (Devil) Banner Mythic	• A really good secondary-DPS/Support due to his high damage and status effect • Really easy to EVO so he’s the perfect beginner unit • That said Ulquiarro and Kirrua do a better overall job at the off-Support role due to better status effects and utility

B-Tier DPS

B-Tier DPS Units	Ranking Notes
Melio (Wrath) Banner Mythic	• Deals really good DPS but doesn’t bring much utility otherwise • I would Evo Ciel or Meliodas as a beginner since they will carry you if you cannot get higher-tier DPS units
Freezo Banner Mythic	• Decent self-buff skill but the main DPS comes from Explosive Aura • This makes Freezo deal a ton of full AOE dps around him and apply Burn • He would be A-Tier if both his self buff and AOE burst didn’t have long cooldowns
Itochi (Eternal Flame) Banner Mythic	• Not the best DPS unit since the Escape passive doesn’t trigger that often if you heal your units well • Plus it’s not that powerful and triggers only once per wave • That said the DPS is quite decent
Eryu (Antithesis) Banner Mythic	• Eryu’s passives are all pretty good even though he suffered from some nerfs • He’s still overall quite strong outputting great damage from the backline

C-Tier DPS

C-Tier DPS Units	Ranking Notes
Sky (Enhanced) Battle Pass Level 25 Exclusive	• You want to place him in the front since he gains stacks on-hit and when being hit • On max stacks he gets a massive damage and attack speed/CDR buff for 12 seconds and resets stacks • That said he’s really slow to get going and outside of Infinite he’s really awkward to play requiring a lot of support and setup which just isn’t worth it
Seth (One-Winged) Battle Pass Level 50 Exclusive	• Decent DPS alternative if you don’t have better units • He doubles up on skills every 16 seconds for some nice burst damage but the cooldown is too long • He also relies on being low HP for max DPS due to his passive but he doesn’t have Lifesteal like SJW so he’s highly reliant on a healer • Overall can be situationally good but he’s not as reliable as other DPS units since you have to get him low and then heal him
Chae-In (Light) Banner Mythic	• Has okay DPS when starting waves due to her passive • Then becomes weaker and offers no utility • Got buffed but stil isn’t the best unit though she’s better than most C-Tiers
Megomun (Explosion) Early Access+ or AFK Chamber Exclusive	• Really good unit for beginners since she’s easy to get in the AFK chamber and EVO • Massive burst damage with the explosion • That said not the best later since the explosion’s cooldown is massive

S-Tier Support

S-Tier Support Units	Ranking Notes
Idol (Pop) Banner Mythic	• One of the best units for your healer slot since she has an AOE heal • The heal also buffs damage and attack cooldowns for an impressive DPS boost inside of her range • That said don’t use her as a starter and place her later • Buffs don’t stack but the duration does • This is important because her Evo passive Encore extends the buff on buffed unit who gets a kill • Goes best with AngelicTrait
Oreheme Banner Mythic	• The best healer in the game if we’re talking just raw healing • Though Idol is sometimes better due to the damage buff • Oreheme isn’t need in all modes but she’s really good when you need a full healer • Goes best with Blessing Trait
Ulquiarro (Murcielago) Banner Mythic	• Ulquiarro is a slow-type support with his Fear effect that reduces movement speed by 40% in an AOE every 8 kills • He’s also very tanky because both hitting enemies with Fear and his High Speed Regeneration passive actually heal • You want to keep him above 80% for a damage buff too so he’s a Support DPS hybrid leaning toward the Support side more
Kirrua (Godspeed) Banner Mythic	• Has both stuns on attack and marks enemies to take more damage from all sources for excellent support potential • That said he also deals great DPS so he’s a DPS/Support hybrid • This is due to high attack speed that scales really well with his Godspeed self buff on every 8th attack to gain damage and more CDR for massive DPS
Steel Banner Mythic	• Steel is a tank unit that supports your team by drawing attention away and stalling enemies so that your DPS units can kill them • Overall he’s not needed in every mode but he’s a pretty useful support unit • Plus he shields and damage buffs your units which is really good

A-Tier Support

A-Tier Support Units	Ranking Notes
Asto (Devil) Banner Mythic	• Great if you don’t have better DPS/status effect support hybrid options like Kirrua and Ulquiarro • Offers decent damage and good team utility • The status effect supports in S-Tier are better support wise but Asto is still an amazing off-DPS
Shadow Vampire AFK Chamber	• Has decent utility and is easy to get via the AFK chamber • Deals decent DPS with The World though it’s unreliable at 40% of the time on-hit • But the status effect is pretty decent so he’s still worth running if you don’t have better options • Really easy to EVO so a great beginner unit
Sakura Banner Epic	• A great choice if you need a support early

Anime Paradox Farming Guide (For Everything)

Here are some tips for farming Gems and other materials:

• Trait Rerolls: Battlepass 10+18 RRS with free and premium, 260 RRS in Milestone Leveling, 168 RRS in Achievements, 3 every hour in Gold Shop, Exchangeable in Raid Shop and Siege Shop.
• Gem Farming: I recommend farming Infinite and resetting on Wave 6 for 50 gems every 1:20 minutes.
• Story Mode Nightmare: This is a great grinding method for account EXP, unit EXP, food, Gems and Gold.
• Evo Materials: You can buy Essences from the Merchant using gold every hour. Also, complete Challenges for more. Lastly, you can craft other Essences using Green Essence you farm.
• Legend Stage: The Ichigo stage is also a good place to farm Gems, Gold, EXP, Food and Green Essence with 2% to get Ichigo at around 4 minutes and 20 seconds completion time.

Mewgenics is not a resource management game by any stretch of imagination, but you will need plenty of space in your inventory.

Your inventory space is where you’ll be storing the different items you find during your adventures. Storing these items will allow you to assign them to the cats of your choice before beginning a fresh run. Thankfully, you can increase your inventory space once you start clearing the early game content.

How to get more inventory space in Mewgenics

To increase your inventory space, you’ll need to donate cats to Butch. The number of cats you have to give to Butch will be plenty. As you might have thought, the cats you donate will be lost from your home, and you won’t get them back.

To donate cats to Butch, you’ll need to submit in batches of 20. Moreover, Butch has certain zone requirements when it comes to taking the cats from you. You can only submit cats that have been to the following areas on at least one adventure.

• Sewers or Junkyard (Act 1)
• Caves or Boneyard (Act 1)
• Sub-branches in Act 2
• Sub-branches in Act 3

Hence, you’ll first need to take the cats to the above areas. Most of the zones/areas mentioned above will first have to be unlocked. This also creates a problem, since cats taking part in your adventures will have better stats and higher levels. Submitting them permanently will feel slightly disappointing, but having the extra space is extremely beneficial.

How to use Trash to increase inventory space in Mewgenics

You have an additional set of slots where you can store items that you don’t immediately need. All items that are not in your storage are lost when a new day begins. However, you can use the Trash slots temporarily to manage your inventory.

You can shift any item to the Trash that you won’t need on your next adventure. Some of the items you carry will be consumed. Similarly, you’ll also find new items on your adventure that will return with your cats. You can then decide what you want to keep in your storage and what you want to throw away. It’s a smart way of managing the limitations of your inventory until you get those upgrades from Butch.
