Anime Squadron Tier List — Best Units & Traits

Bloxron S–D rankings for every unit and trait — methodology, account build order, lane layout, and investment priorities.

S through D are Bloxron rankings for June 2026 — not an in-game label. We weight Raids, Infinite scaling, Yen deploy cost, and fusion routes heavier than early Story burst. Cross-check names on the characters guide, roll traits from the traits page, and slot gear only on units you still field weekly.

How we rank

Tier ranking methodology details

  • Wave scaling through Raids and Infinite Mode matters more than Story-only burst.
  • Yen deploy cost and fusion paths count — a top DPS you cannot afford early is ranked with that in mind.
  • Anti-air, economy, and support slots are rated on how often they fix real lane leaks.
  • Trait pairings are listed separately; a B-tier unit with Superior can outpace a naked S-tier pull.

Account build order

Beginner unit priority steps

  • Lobby perk Maximum Yen before any expensive banner pull — see the progression guide.
  • Fastwagon as soon as he appears — Yen income gates every other deploy.
  • Goki (SSJ4 Full Power) for flying waves and the Gometa fusion route.
  • Vegata (SSJ4 Full Power) as the second fusion leg; keep both leveled even if Gometa is weeks away.
  • Shinks when content starts two-shotting your front line — dodge auras buy time to manual phase.
  • After Update 1.0: redeem UPD1.0! codes, then pick Invasion (Broly) or banner Gogeta chase — not both on day one.
  • After Update 1.5: banner Tanjiro if you want a predictable Mythic lane; farm Mugen Train Act 4 only when Akaza is your endgame Secret.
  • After Update 1.75: redeem UPD1.75! first; farm Yukimura from Ghoul City Ch.1 before chasing Kan (Ghoul) or Meto (One Eyed).

Late-game lane layout

Endgame team slot template

  • Primary lane — Kan (Ghoul), Akaza (Upper Moon), Gometa (SSJ4), Banner Gogeta (Divine), or Broly (Divine) depending on your 1.0–1.75 investment path.
  • Support — Meto (One Eyed) on boss lanes that need Analysed/Alert debuff scaling.
  • Frontline — Garu (Half Monster) on the lane that eats burst or stun mechanics.
  • Economy slot — Fastwagon or Falcon (Dark) so top S-tier units reach the field before bosses spawn.
  • Buffer — Shinks on the lane that eats the most chip damage.
  • Boss check — Madora (Gunbai) for burn stacks, Golden Frieza for Squadron boss lanes, or Shanron (Omega) when the raid timer is the problem.
  • Flex — Goki on the anti-air sub-lane if flyers leak from the main push.

FAQ

Are these tiers official?

No. S through D are Bloxron rankings for July 2026 based on mode coverage and investment payoff — refreshed after Update 1.75 (Ghoul City arc). The game does not publish an in-game tier list.

Banner Gogeta or Gometa (SSJ4)?

Gometa is the fusion route from Goki + Vegata with Primal Core — more predictable long-term. Banner Gogeta is a 0.005% Divine chase with a separate quest line; only commit cubes if you accept extreme banner RNG.

Broly or Garu (Half Monster) for frontline?

Garu for debuff teams and stun redirect without Invasion grinding. Broly (Divine) after the full Broly Gear set and quest checklist — higher ceiling but needs Invasion Mode repeat clears.

Gometa or Woo (Shadow) for a single carry?

Gometa for all-round Story and Raid push with simpler gear demands. Woo wins extended Infinite sessions where shadow soldiers snowball mana — but needs Monarch Daggers and banner luck.

Kan (Ghoul) or Akaza (Upper Moon) for bosses?

Kan (Ghoul) wins long boss timers where Bleed cuts regen and stacks snowball. Akaza (Upper Moon) still shines on Mugen Train lanes you already invested in — pick the unit that matches your mat farm, not both on day one of 1.75.

Do I reroll traits before upgrading units?

Get one acceptable trait on your main lane first (Lethal or Entrepreneur is fine), then chase top S-tier traits on units you will keep post-fusion. Moving traits later costs more shards than locking a budget roll early.

Why is Fastwagon A-tier without damage?

He is the only dedicated Yen printer. Without him, top S-tier units sit in the bench menu while waves overrun your meatshield line — economy is a combat stat in this game, even if he is not a full carry slot.

When do C and D units leave the roster?

Replace them once any B-tier or higher pull covers that lane. Android and Super Baby bridge mid-1.0, but D-tier starters still should not receive Stat Cubes.
