Further down, the C-tier and D-tier feature solid Rare units and common ones. If a unit doesn't appear here, it's either not competitive enough or currently unavailable. Here's a detailed breakdown:

When should I summon units?
In AAC, timing your summons is crucial. Always check which units are featured in the banners before you roll. It's not wise to summon just any Mythic unit without considering the Meta and S-Tier sections of our tier list. Be aware that when a banner changes, your Pity resets, so save your gems and spend them strategically on a banner you're interested in. For further guidance, consider joining the Anime Auto Chess Discord or the RealBigCityBois group on Roblox.
