That's why I'll split each tier into these two categories. For pure DPS units in S-Tier and A-Tier, they're interchangeable based on the element you need (Check which element is best for that specific level).

As for support/debuff units, they also have high DPS like Red Hair but also contribute with enemy debuffs/ally buffs. Make sure to bring at least one or two Debuff DPS units since they deal great damage while providing various supporting effects. Let's dive into each unit below and talk about what they're good at and the best traits for them.

EVO: I'm ranking the Evolved versions of all units at their peak and you can consider their unevolved versions as one or two tiers lower (For example, if BH SS is S then BH Serious is A and base BH is B). Best Mythics To Focus On: Sukuna and Bald Hero for Hybrid DPS. Best Beginner Units: Inoomaki for a great beginner support, Yono for early Air, Buls/Sunji for great early burn DPS and Jaken Hunter (Kid)/Ener for easy Legendaries that evolve into high-tier late-game units.

Cleanse: Wend (Legendary) and Sakuro (Epic) are easy-to-get units that cleanse status effects (Great supports for harder stages). Farm: Eskanor (Legendary) and SpeedCart (Epic) are always useful to have for economy. Meta Team: Red Hair for support, 3 Pure DPS units from S-Tier, at least one Farm and then filler based on your needs.
