Not all Shadows in Arise Crossover are equal. Some hit way harder than others, and ranking them properly can make a huge difference in your damage output. This Arise Crossover Shadow Tier List ranks every Shadow in the game, assuming they are at max level and the best rank possible for each.
Arise Crossover Shadow Tier List 2025 March – UPDATED
S-Tier (Best Shadows in the Game)
Zyu (G-Rank) – The best Shadow in the game, even stronger than Monarch (G).
Monarch (G-Rank) – A powerhouse, only beaten by Zyu.
Time King (SS-Rank) – The best SS-tier unit, but it can’t reach G-rank, making Zyu and Monarch stronger.
A-Tier
Merlego (Face Heal Boss) – One of the highest DPS units outside S-tier.
Falcon (Brum Island Boss) – Slightly weaker than Merlego but still a top pick.
Wind – The strongest non-boss unit in the game.
Mela Mcki – Another strong non-boss, just behind Wind.
Sorod Do – Falls in the same range as Mela Mcki.
B-Tier
These Shadows can hold their own, but they won’t dominate like A or S-tier units.
Door (Grass Village Boss) – A solid boss unit, but weaker than those above.
Genji – Decent damage, but outclassed by stronger Shadows.
Fukara – A good option but lacks high-end DPS.
Lava – Similar to Fukara in strength.
C-Tier
Light Admiral
Emanuel
SharkMan
Black Crow
Snake Man
Blossom
Light Admiral is the strongest in this tier, but all of these are mid-tier and should be replaced when possible.
D-Tier
Ant Soldier – A common unit that appears in almost every rarity.
Lun
Anders Long
Dec Goni
Sro
Ant Soldier is the best for new players, but once you progress, you should swap it for something stronger.
