ASTD Masked Monster Guide

Check out the 6-star unit, Masked Monster!

All Star Tower Defense features some of my all-time favorite anime characters, and these characters have a variety of unique abilities they use in battle. Masked Monster, for example, is a six-star hero based on the character Shinji Hirako from Bleach. He is capable of multiple upgrades, with powerful attacks that may just win a spot as one of the best All Star Tower Defense characters in the game. Take a look below at how you can get the character and what his abilities entail!

The Masked Monster is a Hero you can summon via the Hero Summon area branching off from the main lobby. You can find him in the Branch Z character sets. However, Branch Z is exclusive to World 2, so you'll first need to progress through the story for access. He only has a 1% chance of summoning and requires Emeralds.
