Pro Strategy

If you are running a Ken Kaneki team, remember that his Cannibalistic Team passive is stackable. Placing multiple Kaneki units significantly boosts his damage and movement speed, making him a top-tier Mythic meta choice.

Ken Kaneki (Mythic)

  • Role: High Damage / Carry
  • Key Passive: Predator Adaptation
  • Synergy: Bleed-focused teams

Arima (Secret)

  • Role: Support / Mid-Damage
  • Key Passive: The Pinnacle
  • Utility: Range buffs for allies

Eto (Secret)

  • Role: Crowd Control / Tank
  • Key Passive: Owl's Shriek
  • Specialty: Stuns enemies at low HP

Detailed Unit Passives and Mechanics

Understanding the intricate passives introduced in this anime paradox update log is crucial for high-level play. The new units focus heavily on conditional buffs based on health thresholds and status effects like bleeding.

UnitPassive NameEffect Description
KanekiPredator AdaptationCounters after 5 hits, 15% speed boost
KanekiBleed Conversion12% increased damage to bleeding targets
AmonIron InvestigatorTakes 8% less damage from Bosses
AmonArmored ProtocolGains 1.5% max HP every 5s (Max 30%)
JuzoUnhinged PrecisionBase 10% critical strike chance
JuzoRelentless CarvingAll abilities inflict 3.5% bleed damage
ArimaThe Pinnacle+5% DMG, -8% SBA, +10% Range per ally
EtoHalf Ghoul>70% HP: +20% Range; <70% HP: 50% CDR
EtoOwl's Mark5th attack marks enemy for 15% extra DMG
Arima Usage Warning

Arima's Commanding Strike has a 5% chance to deal double damage. However, if the enemy survives, they take 10% increased damage for 5 seconds. Be careful when using him against high-HP bosses who can survive the burst and benefit from the buff.

Obtainment and Progression Guide

Acquiring these new units requires a mix of Raid participation and luck in specific wards. The anime paradox update log specifies that while some units have a pity (PT) system, others are strictly RNG-based.

1

Collect Raid Coins

Enter the Raid Chamber to farm Raid Coins. Both Juzo and Amon are available in the Raid Shop for 5,000 coins each.

2

Farm Ward 13 Drops

Head to Ward 13 for a chance at Ken Kaneki and Eto, both of whom have a 1% base drop rate. Note that Eto does not currently have a pity system.

3

Evolution Items

Purchase evolution items like the Kaneki Cuffs, Ghoul Eye, and Suitcase from the Raid Shop to unlock the full potential of your units.

4

Arima Pity System

Unlike Eto, Arima features an 80 PT (Pity) system in Ward 13, ensuring a guaranteed drop after a set number of runs.

Evolution Tip

Always prioritize evolving Eto first. Her evolved form grants significant crowd control through Owl's Shriek, which stuns all enemies in range for 3 seconds when her health drops below 30%.

Character Balance Changes: Nerfs & Buffs

This anime paradox update log brings some of the most significant balance shifts in the game's history. The most notable change is the massive nerf to Sung Jin Woo, whose shadow-based passives have been cut by nearly 50%.

Major Nerfs

The development team has targeted high-performing secret units to bring them in line with the current meta.

CharacterSkill/PassiveChange Detail
Sung Jin WooExalted PassiveNerfed from 25% to 12.5% HP/DMG
Sung Jin WooMutilationCooldown increased from 5s to 8s
Sung Jin WooTruth CutCooldown increased from 20s to 24s
MahitoBlack FlashCooldown adjusted to 6s
YutaDamage ScalingNerfed from 3x to 2.5x multiplier
TojiPistol DamageNerfed from 3x to 2x damage scaling

Major Buffs

Conversely, several underperforming units have received substantial improvements to their damage output and cooldowns.

CharacterSkill/PassiveChange Detail
MahoragaDamage BuffDrastically increased from 15% to 25%
SukunaNew UpgradeAdded Upgrade 13: 12% DMG + 2% Range
StarkHP/DMG BuffNon-skill upgrades buffed from 8% to 15%
SagiriExecutionCooldown reduced to 6s, 2.5% DMG buff
GabimaruHollow BarrageCooldown halved from 12s to 6s
Meta Alert

The Sung Jin Woo nerf is devastating for players who rely on shadow-stacking for Infinite mode. You may need to transition to a Sukuna or Mahoraga centered build to maintain high wave clears.

Infinity Castle and Game Mode Updates

The Infinity Castle is the newest endgame challenge introduced in the anime paradox update log. This mode tasks players with ascending 100 floors, with each floor offering progressively difficult enemies and better rewards.

Infinity Castle Objectives:

  • Reach Floor 50 for milestone rewards
  • Farm Gems (50% drop rate in Castle)
  • Test new Bleed synergies on high-HP mobs
  • Complete all 100 floors for exclusive titles
  • Optimize unit placement for floor-specific buffs
Reward Update

The Infinity Castle stage rewards have been adjusted from 10% gems to 50% gems. This makes it the most efficient method for farming premium currency in the current patch.
