Anime Final Strike is a popular Roblox tower defense experience where you summon anime characters and upgrade their abilities to progress. If you have just started Anime Final Strike, you can feel overwhelmed by the amount of content available. So, this complete guide will walk you through the best banners, teams, traits, and farming methods to get started on the right foot in Anime Final Strike.
Best Banners to Summon On
There will be multiple character banners that you can pull on in Anime Final Strike. However, not all banners are worth your gems. You should summon only when certain S-tier Mythics are featured in these banners and save your gems rather than pulling on Legendary banners.
| Banner | Reason |
|---|---|
| Ichiru Masked Banner | Best hybrid DPS unit in the game when evolved. |
| Yuneko Banner | Top-tier farming unit with money scaling. |
| Ice Admiral Banner | Meta support with AoE slow and stun. |
| Akoza Banner | Brutal single-target and AoE burst. |
| Enorai Banner | Good hybrid placement with stun utility. |
Best Early Game Teams
You should have a strong early game team to progress through the story. So, you need to build your teams around units that are easy to upgrade and have good utility in Infinite Mode.
| Team | Roles | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Vejita Super + Yuneko + Ulquiora | DPS, Burn, Slow | Clears early maps with ease, viable in the Infinite Mode. |
| Akoza + Fire Hashira + Namu | DPS, Burn, Bleed | Great against bosses and waves of enemies. |
| Ichiru Masked + Ice Admiral + Yuneko | DPS, Utility, Income | If you are lucky with summons, this team can last long into mid-game modes. |
Best Late Game Teams
Eventually, you will need to upgrade your units to build teams that can clear any content easily. Your late-game team should have evolved S-Tier Mythical units with upgraded stats and abilities, as well as an overall synergy.
| Team | Roles | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Evolved Ichigo + Ice Admiral + Yuneko | DPS, Slow, Income | Best all-around team, viable in all modes. |
| Akaza + Fire Hashira + Yuneko | Burst, Burn, Support | Excellent in raids and boss-heavy stages. |
| Ichigo + Acu + Namu | Bleed, Hybrid, Scaling | Meta team with massive end-game potential. |
How to Farm Gems
You will need lots of Gems for pulling on character banners as well as for rerolling and upgrading them. You will get most gems through the Infinite Mode, as well as simply progressing through the story mode.
| Source | How To Get | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Infinite Mode | Run Meadow solo to wave 40 | ~850 Gems per 20 mins |
| Battle Pass | Complete missions and tasks | ~500 Gems daily |
| Milestones/Index | Reach unit milestones for Gems | ~1000 Gems per week |
| Story Clear | Finish each story map | First-time rewards and gems |
| Code Redeems | Release, Updates, Discord | One-time rewards |

If you can't get the Trait of your choice, there are other ones that you can try to get since you have the option to reroll traits in Anime Final Strike. You can check out our comprehensive traits guide to get a better understanding of this system.
Stats Guide
Stats influence your units as much as their traits. Each unit in Anime Final Strike has 3 core stats: Damage, Range, and SPA. It's best that you reroll stats from the early game itself to strengthen your units as fast as possible. Here's the stats and which ones to prioritize:
- Damage: Always max this first on DPS units (Ichiru Masked, Akoza, Fire Hashira)
- Range: Priority for snipers and AoE units (Vegita Super, Enorai, Ulquiora)
- SPA: Best for support units and stunners (Ice Admiral, Namu, Yuneko)
How to Level Stats
You should aim for SS or SSS for the stats, but you can also use S+ stats early in the game. You can keep rerolling until you get at least one or two S+ stats. Do note that evolving a unit increases their stat rating by one tier, so a unit with an SS stat becomes SSS if you evolve it.
| Method | How To Use |
|---|---|
| Stat Engems | Common rolls, used on Epics or fodder units |
| Perfect Engems | Use only on S-Tier Mythics |
How to Get Stat Rerolls
Stat Rerolls like Stat Engems let you improve your unit’s core stats. Here's how you can get the stat rerolls in Anime Final Strike:
| Method | How To Get |
|---|---|
| Infinite Mode | Completing Infinite Mode runs (especially Wave 40+) often drops Stat Engems and Perfect Stat Engems, which you can use to reroll stats. |
| Battle Pass | Seasonal Battle Pass rewards include both normal and Perfect Stat Engems. Complete daily and weekly missions to progress. |
| Milestone Rewards | As you summon more units or hit certain account levels, the Index Milestone system gives you Engems for free. |
| Story Completion | Clearing Story Chapters for the first time grants bonus Engems as part of your progress rewards. |
| Code Redeems | Promo codes can give you Perfect Stat Engems, which you should save for Mythic units. |
| In-Game Shop (Robux) | You can purchase bundles of Perfect Stat Engems or Stat Reroll Packs using Robux if you want quicker access. |
