Anime Vanguards Tier List March 2025 (Update 4.5)

Here is the latest tier list for Anime Vanguards based on the performance of units in Update 4.5:

Goat Tier (Strongest Units)

These units are the best in their class and are essential for maximum performance.

  • Saber:
    • Strengths: The best Monarch, immune to stuns, status reductions, and DPS reaching 14K.
    • Note: Saber is considered the strongest unit overall.
  • Eisen:
    • Strengths: Second strongest DPS, large Area of Effect (AOE), and high base damage.

Special Case:

  • Gogeta: Although technically in the Z+ tier, Gogeta has 48,000 DPS, infinite range, and incredible damage.

Z+ Tier (Meta Units)

These units define the game’s meta and are crucial for high-level play.

  • Yamamoto: Summons skeletons, high damage, and burns enemies.
  • Erza: Meta since Update 0, AOE Bleed, and Wounded passive.
  • Lancer & Archer: High DPS; Lancer prevents enemy regeneration, Archer has 100% crit chance.
  • Sakura & Saber: The best combo with a future-proof passive.
  • Ichigo: Recently buffed, one of the strongest DPS units.
  • Lucy: Nullify passive, the best support going forward.
  • Ragna: Similar to a Monarch, a good alternative if you don’t have an original Monarch.
  • Samurai & Rim: Full AOE DPS with strong passives.
  • Yoruichi: Best starter unit, better that King Vegeta

S-Tier (Very Strong Units)

Almost on par with Z+, these units are still very effective in various situations.

  • Gojo: Full AOE and time stop ability.
  • Sukuna: Top DPS with Domain Expansion.
  • Diavolo Requiem: Best support, reverses enemies, and removes regen.
  • Gilgamesh: High DPS and immune to status effects (requires Saber or Isaac for full potential).

A-Tier (Good Units)

These units have specific uses and are suitable for certain strategies.

  • King Vegeta: Best unit for beginners, high damage, and reduces boss SPA.
  • Dio: Reduces damage, although slightly outdated.
  • New Unit (S): Strong scaling summon with HP, ideal for infinite mode.
  • Chobei: Full AOE Bleed, useful due to the lack of good bleed units.
  • Crocodile: The only slow unit (reduces enemy speed by 50%), essential for slow strategies.

B-Tier (Usable, But Outclassed)

These units can still be used, but are less effective than the tiers above.

  • Igris: Expensive and low damage.
  • Uryu: Received a buff, so more viable.
  • Dio Brando: Useful for moving enemy units, especially against bosses that block unit sales.

C-Tier (Slightly Better, But Still Weak)

These units have limited use and are rarely used in endgame content.

  • Okarun: Lowest SPA, useful for Sakura’s passive.
  • Burn Units: Deal burn damage, but are ineffective.
  • Sakura: Debuffs enemies.
  • Cosmetic Units: No competitive use.

D-Tier (Weakest Units)

These units should be avoided because their performance is very poor.

  • Glorious Naruto, Akaza, Taisen, Obito, Mimi, Sasuke.
  • Recommendation: Do not use resources to evolve these units.

Strategy and Recommendations

  • Focus on Z+ and Goat Tier Units: These units are key to achieving victory in high-level gameplay.
  • Utilize A-Tier Units for Specific Strategies: Crocodile (slow) and King Vegeta (beginners) are very useful in certain situations.
  • Monitor New Units: Sung Jinwoo & Igris, Choi Jong-In, and Frieren may change the meta after their full information is available.
  • Avoid D-Tier Units: These units do not contribute significantly to the game.

Conclusion

Update 4.5 brings exciting changes to the Anime Vanguards meta.

With this latest tier list, players can choose the best units and optimize their strategies.

Focus on Z+, Goat, and S-Tier units for maximum performance, and don’t forget to monitor the development of new units that may become meta in the future. Happy gaming.
