Anime Vanguards tier list – Best units for story, inifinite, and farm

The Anime Vanguards tier list is set to change swiftly and often as the game settles into its update cadence.

One week after release, it’s time to rank each Anime Vanguards unit based on how well they perform in the game’s various modes. Rankings will take rarity, power scaling, and other factors into account.  A cheaper unit that performs well with far less investment over a Legendary pull can take the cake.

Will Anime Vanguards UPD 1 include new units?

While there’s no confirmation as to what the first update to Anime Vanguards will include, it would be unusual for it to not feature new units. Whether they’re at every rarity or just the top end, however, is anyone’s guess right now.

How do I get Igros/Irgris in Anime Vanguards?

Irgris, a top-tier unit that doesn’t feature on any summon banner, is a secret unit only obtained as an incredibly rare drop from the last story run of the base game.

Irgris has a 0.75% chance to drop from Double Dungeon Act 3 – Double Dungeon Disaster stage. Outside of Gamepasses, there’s no way to increase your chance of the Irgris drop.

The best you can hope is to find a solid strategy with your units and macro the run until you strike it lucky. But, as is the nature with these things, you could technically win an Irgris drop from your very first clear.

If you need help with it, just remember to pack at least one top-tier Support unit like Sprintwagon. Fill the rest of your team with your finest level 30+ legendries, and you should be good to go.

How do I get Shiny Alucard in Anime Vanguards?

Shiny Alucard is one of the rarest possible unit combinations you can obtain in Anime Vanguards.

Discord users Buff and Manganese calculated the odds of obtaining it through single pulls, with the result being, at best, 0.00012%.

Those figures included the Shiny Hunter game pass. Without it, you’re looking at a 0.00006% grind. It’s not worth thinking about.
