This ranking focuses on overall usefulness, prioritizing primary damage dealers while still taking into account support champions and champions capable of helping the team through more difficult content.
- Puppeteer (Transcendent) (SS Rank): Excellent flying champion with terrible resistance and damage. Easily one of the strongest vanguards.
- Gometa (SSJ4) (SS Rank): One of the strongest all-round damage champions in the game and a mainstay of most late-game squads. He has great buffs, great survivability, and is still useful in all modes.
- Woo (Shadow) (SS Rank): One of the champions that deals the highest damage thanks to the Shadow Soldier mechanism. Power-ups allow him to dominate extended battles and Endless Mode.
- Madora (Gunbai) (SS Rank): His massive burn damage, powerful meteor attacks, and powerful boss kill potential make him a top damage dealer. He provides solid value from mid game to late game.
- Shanron (SS Rank): Incredible damage and support packed into one champion. His only downside is his high cost, making it harder for new players to use.
- Rizzuto (Sage) (S Rank): A reliable DPS that works well in most content. He doesn’t have the overwhelming power of SS-class units, but is still a strong choice.
- Vegata (SSJ Full Power) (S Rank): Damage output is stable and important for progressing to Gometa. His ultimate is cheap and effective, making him valuable throughout progression.
- Goki (SSJ4 Full Power) (S Rank): Powerful damage dealer, serving as an important evolutionary component for Gometa. Worth investing in even if he is eventually replaced.
- Shinks (Rank S): Best support available. His damage reduction and evasion assist aura can greatly improve the team’s survivability.
- Fastwagon (Class S): Unique and almost mandatory monetization unit for progression. Additional income speeds up every playthrough and allows acquiring expensive units faster.
- Karashi (Sharingan) (Rank A): Mythic is the fastest in the game and excellent for getting through weaker levels. Speed makes the character useful even when having lower damage than top units.
- Shield Hero (Rank A): One of the best tanks thanks to its ability to redirect damage. His value increases as the content becomes more difficult.
- Rudaus (Rank A): Provides valuable cooldown reduction support to nearby allies. This character is quite picky about players but can significantly improve some late-game squads.
- Big Beard (Rank B): Quite good both as a tank and as a damage dealer. He is useful in the early stages but is overshadowed by stronger specialists later on.
- Mamosa (Grade B): Providing healing support can help new players. This character’s effects become less noticeable in harder content, where damage taken is much higher.
- Choi (Rank C): A basic damage champion that can be used by beginners but quickly weakens. Most players will replace him when stronger champions become available.
- Tranks (Rank C): Useful in the early stages but lacks the necessary stats and utilities for late-game content.
- Zaro (Rank C): Can help fill roster spots as a starter. His overall performance is average compared to other options.
- Shin (Rank D): There are better alternatives almost immediately.
- Igras (Rank D): Mostly a starting choice, which quickly becomes outdated. Not worth investing resources in the long run.
