Manhwa Legends Tier List: Best Units
This Manhwa Legends tier list keeps DPS, support, and economy rankings separate. A unit can rank differently by role: Kim Dakjo, for example, appears as B-tier DPS but S-tier support. Combining those into a single “B/S” tier would hide what the source rankings actually mean.
The rankings below reflect release-era community guides, not official balance data. Recheck the current game after major balance changes.
Tier list methodology
The primary written guide ranks units using:
- raw damage output;
- scaling in late-game and Infinite modes;
- contribution to a team.
Rarity and acquisition difficulty are not part of that guide's ranking criteria. Farm units are evaluated separately because their purpose is economy rather than combat.
DPS tier list
| Tier | Units |
|---|---|
| S DPS | Secret Dreamer, Song Hwen, White Wolf, Beast, Beylord |
| A DPS | Ha Yori, Cherry, Ancient, Querasha |
| B DPS | Infernum, Yuu, Jay, Coera Denoir, Kim Dakjo |
| C DPS | Pildo Gang, Creator |
S-tier DPS
- Secret Dreamer (Constellation): Full AOE damage, clones, Shock stuns, and critical-hit support from Terror of the Stars. Community sources place it at the top of the release meta.
- Song Hwen (Vessel): The primary single-target and boss-damage specialist in the referenced community guides.
- White Wolf (Feral): Builds critical chance toward 100%, applies Bleed on critical hits, and uses that Bleed to improve further.
- Beast (Primal): Consistent damage from early waves into endgame without a complicated unlock condition.
- Beylord (Mimicry): Pseudo-AOE damage through passive effects and a strong pairing with Beast or another main carry.
A-tier DPS
- Ha Yori (Princess): A boss-focused damage dealer whose DoT stacks compound against durable enemies.
- Cherry (Dancer): A straightforward boss killer that fits into many team compositions.
- Ancient (Regressor): Scales with Won investment and unlocks the Constellation route leading to Secret Dreamer.
- Querasha (Pestilence): A DPS/support hybrid whose passive gives it strong boss-killing value.
B-tier DPS
- Infernum (Phoenix): Burn amplification can support Fire-type teams, but the unit is build-dependent.
- Yuu (Boxer): A limited unit with a similar late-game ceiling to Jay.
- Jay (Hope): Useful in the mid-game but weaker in Infinite and difficult endgame stages.
- Coera Denoir (Noble): Listed as a B-tier damage option while also having a separate support role.
- Kim Dakjo (Immortal King): Lower as a pure DPS, but much stronger when evaluated for timestop and passive-copying support.
C-tier DPS
- Pildo Gang (Landlord): A turret-style damage unit that community reviewers describe as fun but numerically weak.
- Creator: Doubles buffs and can work early, but becomes awkward to use in later stages.
Support tier list
| Tier | Units |
|---|---|
| S Support | Ha Yora, Kim Dakjo, Querasha, Violet Grace, Secret Dreamer |
| A/B Support | Beylord, Coera Denoir, Kyrogias Radgroim, Akryoung, Andrassa |
S-tier support
- Ha Yora (Idol): Floating Nodes increase the damage of main DPS units, with more node effects available through the skill tree.
- Kim Dakjo (Immortal King): Timestop controls enemies in range, while Bookmark/passive copying adds flexible team utility.
- Querasha (Pestilence): Combines support value with high boss damage.
- Violet Grace (Revolution): Contributes stuns, strong range, damage scaling, and Full Ignition.
- Secret Dreamer (Constellation): Clones and Shock stuns provide team-wide crowd control in addition to top damage.
A/B-tier support
- Beylord (Mimicry): Off-support damage that complements Beast and other primary DPS units.
- Coera Denoir (Noble): Provides a debuff-cleanse niche for specific encounters.
- Kyrogias Radgroim: An early-game support that is normally replaced as stronger options become available.
- Akryoung: Another early support with a similar ceiling to Kyrogias.
- Andrassa: Provides AOE damage and range buffs and is also considered a useful beginner DPS.
Economy units
| Unit | Role | Community notes |
|---|---|---|
| Loid (Master) | Farm | Mythic farm unit, evolvable, harder to obtain, and described as the stronger overall income unit. |
| Mint | Farm | Epic farm unit that is easier to obtain and useful before Loid is available. |
Farm units should not be compared directly with DPS or support rankings. Their value comes from generating Won and accelerating placements and upgrades.
Recommended beginner units
The written tier guide names the following accessible early options:
- Jong Youngha
- Kuma
- Wraithsinker
- Lee-Joh
Andrassa is also described as a good beginner DPS/support option. For economy, Mint is the easier early farm unit, while Loid becomes the stronger long-term investment if obtained.
Recommended traits
| Unit or role | Community-recommended traits |
|---|---|
| Secret Dreamer | Legend or Limit Breaker |
| Song Hwen | Legend or Boss Slayer |
| White Wolf | Assassin |
| Ha Yori | Boss Slayer |
| Cherry | Ruler or Assassin |
| Querasha | Legend |
| Ancient | Legend or Swiftness |
| Farm units | Hustler |
These recommendations are tied to the release-era rankings and are not a substitute for checking current unit scaling.
