Anime Defenders Legendary Tier List (Update 2)

Legend is born, or should we say - summoned?

Contrary to Mythical units, which are hard to get, Legendary units are fairly easy to collect. Units of this rarity are very useful, especially support ones. This Anime Defenders Legendary tier list will help you choose the best units from this group.

In Anime Defenders, you'll change your team comp frequently. As soon as you get a Mythical or Secret unit, some Legendary units will fall out of your rotation. While that is most often true, you'll still lean heavily on Legendary units, as those Mythics are hard to get. Even when you do find them, some of the best Legendary units will still be irreplaceable. Below, you'll see all Legendary units tier list in Anime Defenders.

Best Ranked Legendary units in Anime Defenders

Choosing the best Legendary units for your team comp in Anime Defenders is easy if you have lots of Mythic DPS characters. In that case, you are looking for support units that can maximize your damage output. But if you're just starting and most of your units are of Rare Epic rarity, every Legendary will be super useful. In any case, redeem Anime Defenders codes to get as many Gems as possible to pull for a chance to summon units from S and A tiers.

S Tier

Admiral of Ice

Even the strongest unit in Anime Defenders needs help, especially against those speedy enemies. Admiral of Ice is a master of debuffs, as his main ability is to slow down enemies. This will allow your strongest units to have more opportunity to deal damage. Admiral of Ice is so useful that I've ranked him as an S-tier in our Anime Defenders all units tier list.

Pink Rockstar

Pink Rockstar is one of the most popular meta units in Anime Defenders, as she's a farm and support at the same time. She'll get you extra money after each successful wave. And if that's not enough, she also buffs nearby friendly units, increasing their damage by 20%.

A Tier

Admiral of Lava

Admiral of Lava has been an essential part of my team ever since I discovered his burn damage. As one of the rare units that has a damage-over-time attack, Admiral of Lava will probably be your favorite DPS unit. Also, this Admiral is a hill unit, allowing him to have a large area of effect.

Strongest Swordsman

I got Strongest Swordsman fairly early, making him one of the most used units in my teams. While he doesn't have a huge AoE attack, I found him very useful as a unit that hits the strongest enemies. Until you find someone way stronger, use Strongest Swordsman to cut down those spongy enemies.

B Tier

Admiral of Light

I was thinking of placing Admiral of Light in the A-tier, but Light's slow progress ultimately brought him to the mid-tier. Admiral of Light has a huge range and excellent damage output. But you'll realize that potential is hard to get as it's hidden behind multiple expensive upgrades. Sometimes, you don't have the luxury of waiting for him to reach higher-tiered updates.

Electric Cyborg

Electric Cyborg is a very useful Legendary unit thanks to his faithful turret. He's great against shielded enemies, but that's not what you'll need often. His lack of versatility can be problematic, but if you use him in Tower of Infinity, he'll help you go far.

C Tier

Master Swordsman

Master Swordsman is a nice unit if he's your only Legendary. But as soon as you find something better, you'll kick him out of the team. Because his focus is on dealing pure damage, you'll simply remove him as soon as you get a Mythic unit.

Maxed Qi Master

Maxed Qi Master is a fine Legendary unit you'll never use as soon as you get at least Strongest Swordsman or some of the Admiral-type units. He'll serve you well for a short amount of time, and then you'll move on, never to come back.
