The Universal FINALE (Update 3.25) dropped on June 13, 2026, and reshuffled the entire UTDX meta. Four new units — Perfect Bio-Android Maximum, Blanco Beast, Funeral Parlor (Fragrance), and Wavechaser (Surfer) — jumped straight into S-tier alongside the existing carries. Raw damage alone no longer wins in Infinite, Ragnarok, Challenges, and Virtual Realm. The best units combine DPS with crowd control, Hyper Armor breaking, team buffs, and relic synergy.
Rankings assume late-game investment: fully evolved units, complete Etherealization, top-tier traits, and matched relics.
| Role | Best Unit | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Leader | King Sailor (Unrivaled) / Triple Threat (Unrivaled) | Team buffs only apply from Leader slot |
| Ground Carry | The Strongest of Today | Top DPS + Light element coverage |
| Hybrid Carry | The Strongest in History / Joyful Captain | Best AoE for Hybrid/Hill modes |
| Support | Unparalleled Armor / Majestic Armor | Buff + Synchro pairing value |
| Farm | Bulma (Fastcart optional) | Fastest upgrade economy |
These units anchor endgame teams and scale into Infinite and Ragnarok. Always invest evolutions, best traits, and exclusive relics into these first.

| Unit | Rarity | How to Obtain |

King Sailor (Unrivaled), The Strongest of Today, Merciless God / Goku Black, Joyful Captain / Luffy, and the four new Festival Finale units (Blanco Beast, Perfect Bio-Android Maximum, Funeral Parlor, Wavechaser) are the current S-tier meta.
Only King Sailor (Unrivaled) or Triple Threat (Unrivaled). Their team buffs only activate when placed in Slot 1 — putting them elsewhere wastes their passive entirely.
Yes — Synchro Drive units have the highest DPS in the game. Run both Bulma and Fastcart as your farm units to accelerate upgrade costs and trigger Synchro Clash consistently.
Merciless God is behind the Universal Banner, which uses a separate Universal Gems currency. Farm Universal Gems from Daily Challenges and newer game modes, or convert older Universal Gems at a 1:1 rate via the Merciless God NPC in the lobby.
