Frequently Asked Questions
Is this tier list updated regularly?
Yes! We update this tier list whenever new units are released or balance changes occur. The rankings are based on data from the official wiki and community testing.
Should I only use S+ tier units?
Not necessarily! Team synergy and cost efficiency matter a lot. Sometimes a well-upgraded A-tier unit can outperform an under-leveled S+ unit. Focus on units you actually own and can afford to upgrade.
How does rarity affect tier placement?
While higher rarity units (Godly, Ultimate) tend to rank higher, some Mythic and Legendary units can compete in A-tier or even S-tier due to excellent stats or special abilities. Rarity isn't everything!
