Refer to the tier list above for the Awakenloop tier list of all currently available characters. While top units are dominant, others can be useful too. For example, both B and C-tier characters are helpful, especially in the early game. Still, certain characters have a higher priority over others in terms of the upgrade process (which does consume a lot of materials), so it's wise to invest in the more important ones first.
