Character stats & potentials
Core stat ratings overview
Every unit ships with five base stats rated from A through S through S+. Ratings are not just raw numbers — they bring large percentage buffs to your entire layout.
Stat Cube lock-and-roll
Stat reroll lock strategy
Customize stats with Stat Cubes in the lobby. The UI shows exact percentage boosts — like +20% or +50% Damage — before you commit a roll.
Cost doubles per lock
Roll a perfect stat (for example S+ Range), lock it, then reroll everything else. Each locked stat doubles the cost of the next roll — spend cubes deliberately.
Global perks — Maximum Yen first
Global perk priority
Lobby global perks compound across every match. Maximum Yen should be your number-one priority: if starting Yen capacity stays low, expensive units like Rizzuto (Sage) never reach the field during early waves.
Leader Skills — Update 1.5
Divine Exclusive Leader Skills
Update 1.5 adds Divine Exclusive Leader Skills on your leader unit — passive team buffs that stack with traits and gear on the rest of the roster.
| Leader Skill | Effect | Targets |
|---|---|---|
| Protagonist Bonus | +5% damage to all protagonist-tagged units on the team | Protagonist units |
| Divine Bonus | +10% damage to all Divine-element units on the team | Divine-element units |
Leader Skills stack with traits and gear on individual units — assign on the leader slot before burning Trait Rerolls from the Mugen Train Raid Shop.
Update 1.0 spending priorities
Invasion and Divine unit prep
Update 1.0 adds Invasion Mode and two Divine routes — check the live events card before the Invasion window ends.
- Codes first — redeem UPD1.0! and the 1.0 batch on a fresh server if rewards fail.
- Pick one Divine path — Invasion for Broly + Broly Gear, or save cubes for Banner Gogeta (0.005%) — not both on day one.
- Bounty Tickets — reroll cubes, trait shards, and account boosts for your main carry lane before Battle Pass cosmetics.
- Battle Pass — Dante and Vergil reward consistent DPS without banner RNG if you complete pass tiers during the 1.0 window.
- After the event — return to Maximum Yen and Stat Cube investment on units you will keep (Gometa fusion parents, Broly, or your banner chase).

Index Gem cashout
Index gem claim flow
Pull or drop a character you have never owned before, then open the Index panel. Claiming the new entry pays out Gems immediately — a reliable trick to stretch early summon budgets before Gold becomes the real bottleneck.
FAQ
What are the five core stats in Anime Squadron?
Damage, Cooldown (CDR), Range, HP, and Speed. Each unit has base ratings from A up to S+, and those ratings also apply percentage buffs to your layout.
How does lock-and-roll work with Stat Cubes?
When rerolling stats, you see exact percentage boosts on screen (like +20% or +50% Damage). Lock a perfect roll — such as S+ Range — then reroll the rest. Each locked stat doubles the cost of the next roll.
What global perk should you upgrade first?
Maximum Yen. Without a higher starting Yen capacity, expensive powerhouse units cost too much to spawn during early waves.
How do Index Gems work?
Whenever you pull or drop a brand-new character for the first time, open the Index panel and claim the entry for a quick Gem payout — crucial for keeping summon funds alive early on.
What should I spend Bounty Tickets on first after Update 1.0?
Redeem active codes (UPD1.0!, GoBrolyGoGo!, UltimateFusion!) before spending anything. Use Bounty Tickets on reroll items and trait shards for units you will keep — Broly, Gogeta, or Gometa fusion parents. Invasion stamina is separate; tickets do not replace Broly Gear farming.
What are Leader Skills in Update 1.5?
Assign a Divine Exclusive Leader Skill on your squad leader: Protagonist Bonus (+5% damage to protagonist-tagged allies) or Divine Bonus (+10% damage to Divine-element allies). Pair Divine Bonus with Broly or Banner Gogeta lanes; Protagonist Bonus with Tanjiro-focused squads.
