This comprehensive Anime Squadron Roblox tier list breaks down the best units for every role, helping you build a formidable squad and understand the current meta.

Understanding the Anime Squadron Tier System
Before diving into specific units, let's clarify how we categorize their effectiveness:
- S-Tier DPS: These are the absolute top-tier damage dealers, often meta-defining units that excel in most content. They offer unparalleled damage output or unique scaling mechanics.
- A-Tier DPS: Excellent damage dealers that scale well into the endgame. They might offer strong utility alongside their damage or fit specific team compositions perfectly.
- Tank: Units specifically designed to absorb damage, protect allies, and control enemy aggression.
- Support/Utility: Units that provide buffs, debuffs, healing, or other crucial non-damage benefits to the team.
- Farm: Units whose primary purpose is to generate in-game currency or resources, making progression smoother.
These rankings reflect a combination of raw power, versatility, and synergy within a team.
S-Tier: Dominant DPS Units
These units represent the pinnacle of damage output in Anime Squadron, capable of carrying teams through the most challenging content.
Gogeta (Evolved)
Considered by many players as the best unit in the game, Gogeta is a powerhouse DPS. He evolves from both Goku and Vegeta, making them essential early investments. Gogeta truly shines with a critical chance build. His abilities include gaining damage, defense, and dodge when allies are defeated, regenerating HP and gaining dodge after using an ability, and permanently boosting critical chance with kills (up to 50% at 5,000 kills). His Big Bang Kamehameha ultimate deals massive damage.
Focus on a Crit Build for Gogeta.
Gogeta's "Master of Combat" passive makes him highly effective with critical chance gear, allowing him to stack significant damage over time.
Kan (Ghoul)
Kan (Ghoul) is a pure Meta DPS unit, according to recent community reports. His strength lies in massive Bleed DoT (Damage over Time) damage. He scales incredibly well by defeating enemies affected by Bleed or by directly defeating them with Kan, which significantly boosts his Bleed DPS and cooldowns. An added benefit is his self-healing when taking down "Prey," making him a surprisingly durable damage dealer.
A-Tier & Beyond: Versatile DPS, Tanks, and Supports
This tier includes units that are incredibly strong and form the backbone of many successful teams, offering a mix of damage, defense, and crucial support.
Strong DPS Options
- Satoru: This unit is a versatile powerhouse, fitting into Meta DPS, Tank, and Support categories due to his unique kit. He applies corruption on every attack, dealing consistent damage over time, and alternates between fire and ice elements. Fire corruption deals extra damage, while ice corruption reduces enemy speed, making him invaluable for control and damage, though he is one of the most expensive units.
- Madara Uchiha: Obtained from Legacy Stages Act 4 on the Naruto map, Madara is a formidable DPS. His ability attacks apply burn, and he can enter "Chakra Overflow" after generating enough chakra, gaining significant damage and boosting burn damage by 200%. He also summons a giant meteor every 25-35 seconds, dealing high AOE damage.
- Akaze Sanju: This unit (also known as Son Jiru by some players) is a strong damage dealer known for Shadow Step (gaining damage chance after abilities), Dark Heart (mana restoration), and Shadow Monarch (turning killed enemies into shadow soldiers). His ultimate delivers powerful slashes, making him a consistent threat.
- Rangaku (Demon): A near-Meta DoT damage dealer, Rangaku focuses on AOE burst damage rather than sustained ticks, as his DoTs explode. This makes him excellent for clearing groups of enemies efficiently.
- Goki (SSJ4 Full Power) & Vegata (SSJ4 Full Power): While good sub-Meta and mid-game DPS units respectively, their primary value often comes from their requirement to evolve into Gogeta. Goki is generally considered slightly better in terms of raw DPS compared to Vegata's Full Power EVO.
Reliable Tank Units
- Shield Hero: This battle pass unit is a dedicated tank. Allies within his range take 30% less damage, with Shield Hero absorbing the redirected damage. He gains defense for every 10,000 total damage absorbed, making him incredibly resilient in tough stages.
- Woo (Shadow): Described as an underrated tank, Woo excels by dodging attacks rather than just absorbing them. He also has summons and an AOE nuke, making him strong for fast clears and farming. His dodge chance provides significant defensive utility.
- Big Bird: A solid tank option, Big Bird gains defense based on missing HP and receives an "all stats" boost if he drops below 3% HP. His ultimate, a catastrophic quake, deals significant damage, though upgrading him for it might be less efficient in early game.
Essential Support Units
- Shanks: While not a DPS, Shanks provides crucial support by reducing incoming damage and increasing accuracy for allies within his range. His "Conqueror's Heart Aura" is particularly useful for new players clearing stages.
- Rudous and Momous: These units offer unique support capabilities. Rudous regenerates a percentage of her max HP every second for allies in range, which can be useful in certain compositions. Momous reduces ability cooldowns for nearby allies, potentially speeding up team rotations.
- Naruto: Naruto has a support passive that buffs nature-type allies, gaining damage and defense. However, community reports indicate he's currently situational due to a lack of strong nature units in the current meta. He regenerates HP, but his full potential awaits more synergistic units.
Essential Farm & Utility Units
These units might not be flashy damage dealers, but they are crucial for efficient progression and resource management.
Speedwagon
Speedwagon is a must-have money unit for every team composition, according to player experience. He increases Yen generation by 20% while alive and grants an additional 500% Yen upon dying, making him incredibly valuable for farming currency. Running Speedwagon can drastically speed up your ability to afford upgrades and new units.
