Celestial Valkyrie
Insane DPS combined with global range makes her a must-have. Her ultimate ability can wipe out entire waves.

Void Emperor
Provides unparalleled crowd control with his black hole ability. He can stall even the toughest enemies, giving your other units time to deal damage.
Best for: Stalling high-HP enemies, supporting DPS units
Prism Guardian
Offers a powerful combination of single-target damage and splash. Her ability to bounce between enemies makes her incredibly efficient.
Best for: Dealing with groups of enemies, single-target focus
⭐ A Tier — Very Strong
Excellent units that perform well in most situations and are highly recommended.
Inferno Dragon
Deals consistent fire damage over time to multiple targets. Excels at melting high-health enemies, but vulnerable to anti-air.
Best for: Dealing with tanky enemies, area damage
Stormcaller
Provides strong area-of-effect damage and stun capabilities. Can disrupt enemy formations and buy time for your defenses.
Best for: Crowd control, disrupting enemy waves
Shadow Assassin
High burst damage and stealth capabilities allow her to eliminate key targets. Best used strategically to take out problematic enemies.
Best for: Single-target burst damage, eliminating key threats
✅ B Tier — Solid
Reliable units that can be effective in the right setups, but may require specific team compositions.
Earth Golem
High HP and defense make him a good tank. Can soak up damage and protect your other units.
Best for: Tanking damage, protecting other units
Arcane Mage
Deals consistent magic damage and has decent range. A good all-around option, but lacks the burst of higher-tier units.
