Introduction

The Anime Dice tier list ranks the game's anime-inspired characters by how much they contribute to your plot income and overall team strength. Because the game revolves around rolling dice for characters and placing them to generate money, the tier of a unit depends on three things: its base income per second, its rarity (which affects how often you can expect to pull it), and how well it performs with traits and mutations. This page summarizes our community-ranked tiers — S, A, B, and C — for the units players actually chase, plus guidance on which dice upgrades and mutations deserve your Lucky Spins and Gems. The meta shifts with every update, so these rankings are refreshed after each patch: UPD 3 added new content and balance changes that moved several characters between tiers. Use this list to decide which units to place, which to reroll, and which rare pulls are worth spending your free resources on.

Tier Overview

S

S Tier

top

Meta-defining units with the highest base income per second. These are the rarest mythic pulls in the current pool, and they are the reason players save Lucky Spins and gems — landing one transforms your plot income immediately. This card summarizes the key information at a glance, so you can quickly compare your options and decide where to focus your next in-game spend.

A Tier

strong

Strong all-rounders that carry mid-game teams. Legendary units in this tier deliver reliable income and respond beautifully to trait rerolls, so a well-built A-tier with a good trait can outperform a poorly built S-tier on your plot. This card summarizes the key information at a glance, so you can quickly compare your options and decide where to focus your next in-game spend.

Solid filler units that generate steady income while you save for better rolls. Rare units in this tier fill plot slots without wasting resources, and they hold their value well until your Luck upgrades unlock stronger pulls.

Core Mechanics

Tier placement in Anime Dice follows a consistent logic rooted in the game's income loop. A character's base tier is driven by its rarity — mythic units have much higher base income per second than common units, which is why they sit at the top of every list. But rarity alone does not decide a unit's practical value: a legendary with a weak trait can underperform a rare with a strong trait, which is why traits and mutations are baked into tier assessments. When we rank a unit, we consider its raw income, how it scales with Luck-driven rolls, and how much it benefits from Trait Rerolls and mutations. We also factor in availability — a theoretical S-tier unit that almost never rolls is less useful to the average player than a strong A-tier unit you can realistically obtain. Because UPD 3 introduced balance changes and new characters, the current tier list reflects the post-update meta; when the next patch ships, placements may shift again as new units enter the pool and older ones get buffed or nerfed.

Advantages

A good tier list saves you from wasting your most valuable resources. In Anime Dice, Lucky Spins, Trait Rerolls, and Gems are all limited, and spending them on the wrong characters slows your progression noticeably. The tier list tells you which units are worth chasing with spins, which traits are worth rerolling onto your best characters, and which units can safely wait on your bench. It also helps you build a better team: instead of placing your five highest-rarity pulls, you learn that a focused lineup of A-tier units with good traits can out-earn a scattered collection of S-tier units with weak traits. Because the rankings are community-maintained and updated after each patch, they reflect the actual post-update experience rather than pre-release theory. For players trading or collecting, the tier list also pairs with the community unit value list on the official Discord, giving you a shared language for what your rarest characters are worth.

Challenges

Tier lists in Anime Dice are community assessments, not official developer ratings, so they carry built-in uncertainty. The developer has not published exact unit stats, roll odds, or mutation probabilities, which means every ranking relies on player testing and community reports that can be incomplete or outdated. A character's placement can also be subjective: a unit that shines with a specific mutation or trait might rank lower in general lists, and playstyle differences mean some players prefer income-focused teams while others chase collection value. Because the game is young and updates frequently, any tier list becomes stale quickly — a unit that is S-tier today can drop after the next balance patch. Finally, exact numbers like income per second and Luck multiplier values are not officially confirmed, so treat the tier list as a strategic guide rather than a precise stat sheet, and check the update log whenever a new patch changes the meta.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who are the best characters in Anime Dice?+
The best characters in Anime Dice are the mythic-tier units at the top of the tier list, because they have the highest base income per second and scale best with traits and mutations. In the current post-UPD 3 meta, the S-tier list is led by the rarest mythic pulls — anime-inspired fan favorites that generate the most money when placed on your plot. That said, a mythic unit only reaches its potential with a good trait and, ideally, a mutation; a mythic with a weak trait can be out-earned by a well-built legendary. For most players, the practical takeaway is to chase S-tier units with Lucky Spins when they appear, keep A-tier units as reliable carries, and treat B and C tier units as fillers until your luck improves. Exact unit names shift with each update, so check the tier list page for the current rankings.
How often does the Anime Dice tier list change?+
The Anime Dice tier list changes whenever the developer ships a meaningful update, because new characters enter the pool and balance changes can buff or nerf existing units. UPD 3, released in September 2026, introduced new content and adjustments that moved several characters between tiers. Between major patches, the list is mostly stable, but we also update individual placements if the community discovers that a specific trait or mutation combo performs better or worse than originally ranked. Because the game is young, expect the meta to settle gradually — the first weeks after launch usually bring the biggest swings as players test new units. We track every change in the update log so you can see exactly what moved and why.
Should I focus on tier list units or income generators?+
For most Anime Dice players, the answer is both — the tier list already weights units by their plot income, so an S-tier unit is usually also the best income generator on your team. Early in the game, you should focus on placing your highest-tier units and upgrading your dice for Luck, because more Luck means better rolls and faster access to the top tiers. Mid-game, the balance shifts toward traits: an A-tier legendary with a great trait can out-earn an S-tier unit with a weak one, so Trait Rerolls become your highest-value spend. Late game, mutations decide the top end of the meta, and the tier list shifts to favor units with strong mutated versions. In short, use the tier list to guide what you roll for, use traits and rerolls to maximize what you already own, and keep your best income units on the plot at all times.

Quick Tips

💡

Chase S-tier mythic pulls with your Lucky Spins, but keep strong A-tier legendaries as your reliable carries — a realistic A-tier team often out-earns a scattered collection of S-tier units with weak traits. Building this habit early pays off steadily as the game continues to update and new content arrives.

💡

Treat tier placements as a living list — check the update log after every patch, because UPD 3 and future releases regularly move units between tiers as new characters and balance changes land. Building this habit early pays off steadily as the game continues to update and new content arrives.

💡

Pair the tier list with the community unit value list on the official Discord before trading — rarity and tier are both priced into what collectors will offer for your rarest characters. Building this habit early pays off steadily as the game continues to update and new content arrives.
