Best Anime Last Stand units: Shinra (Godly), Ancient Vampire (Over Heaven), The True Cursed King, and Hero Hunter (Cosmic) are S+ tier. Traits matter more than rarity—a Legendary with great traits beats a Godly with trash traits.
I've been grinding since the beta. 200+ hours, cleared every story mode, and I'm pushing wave 150+ in Infinite Mode. This tier list is based on actual testing, not theorycrafting.
The meta shifts with every update. The December 2025 Winter Update buffed some units and introduced new Godly options. Use those free rerolls from codes wisely.
Quick Reference

| B | Tanjiro (Sun Breathing), Ichigo (Bankai), Vegeta (Blue), Luffy (Gear 5), Escanor (The One) |
| C | Most base Legendaries, unevolved Mythics, starter units |
S+ Tier (Meta Defining)
These units break the game. If you have one, build your team around it.
Shinra (Godly)
Current meta king. No contest.
I pulled Shinra around hour 80 and my Infinite Mode progress jumped from wave 90 to 150+. His damage scaling is insane. With the right traits, he's hitting 200k+ per attack in late waves.
Why he's broken:
- Highest single-target DPS in the game
- Attack speed scales with upgrades
- Passive that ignores enemy defense
- Fire damage burns through boss HP
Best traits: Damage+, Attack Speed+, Range+
Placement: Put him where he can hit bosses. His single-target focus means he's wasted on trash waves.
