I watched my hill crumble the moment a Soaring S-tier swept the map. You feel that cold knot when a single unit rewrites your win condition overnight. I spent a week running tests, and I’m sharing exactly what stopped the wipe.
I’ll be blunt: you don’t have to pull every banner. I’ll tell you which units matter, why they matter, and how to fit them in the teams you already play.

Servers stagger when Soaring shifts the match. Quick read: what this table actually means for your roster
If you’re short on time, here are the practical points you need right now:
- S-tier DPS are units that clear lanes fast and counter Soaring threats when placed on hills.
- S-tier Support double as buffers for damage and controllers — they change how other units scale.
- Hybrid rules: a Hybrid on flat ground cannot hit Soaring enemies; place Hybrid or Hill units on actual Hills to target Soaring enemies.
Which units are best for Soaring enemies?
Short answer: Hill and Hybrid units placed on Hills are your only consistent counters. Sky God, Shinobi (Eternal), and a handful of Hill supports like Toad Sensei anchor teams that refuse to fold. Sky God is a heat-seeking missile against open-air threats and will punish maps without heavy anti-air lanes.
How do I get Sky God?
Sky God comes from the Sky God Portal; higher portal tiers increase the drop chance. If you follow Roblox creators on YouTube or check community threads on Discord and Reddit you’ll spot timely guides and pull trackers that map odds per portal. Use those community tools to time pulls, and check the in-game banner notes before you spend.
What supports pair best with Mahoraga?
Mahoraga benefits from summon-buffing supports. Zombie (Risen) and Shadow Sorcerer (Ritual) are common pairings because they amplify summons and sustain DPS. If you stream or clip runs to Twitter/X or a YouTube short, you’ll quickly see the most consistent pairings players test on speedrun maps.
My farm list still runs while I test banners. Practical must-haves and notes
Farm Units (Must-Have): Bulby & C.E.O. — fast, cheap, reliable for grinding resources.
Sky God Note: You can get him from any Sky God Portal tier but higher tiers increase the drop chance.
Tier List Updates Coming Soon: I will publish detailed ranking reasons and populate B-tier (Tier III) after the next banner cycle and extended lab runs.
Flying and Soaring Units Update: Ground units now hit fliers at 50% damage and lose CC on them. Soaring units are only targetable by Hybrid/Hill units placed on Hills; a Hybrid not on a Hill cannot hit Soaring enemies.

Sky God Note: You can get him from any Sky God Portal tier but higher tiers increase the drop chance.
Tier List Updates Coming Soon: More detailed ranking reasons for units as well as the B-Tier/Tier III are both coming soon.
Flying and Soaring Units Update: Any unit can now hit fliers with ground units dealing 50% less damage with no CC effects. Soaring units can only be hit by Hill and Hybrid units placed on Hills. A Hybrid unit cannot hit a Soaring enemy if it’s not placed on a Hill.
That’s the tier list and practical guide for Anime Adventures. If you want free rewards, check the official Roblox page and community code lists.
One last tip: Toad Sensei is a Swiss Army knife for crowd-control maps — he rarely disappoints. Which unit are you willing to bet your next banner on?
