Anime Overload is a Tower Defense game that incorporates characters from the most popular anime series and is thus certain to bring tons of fun to anyone playing it. While most of the game concepts are familiar from other anime tower defense games, there are certain nuances unique to this game in particular you need to be aware of in order to guarantee a good time inside of it. Thankfully, we have created this detailed Beginners Guide to help you get the hang of things and start off on the right track.
Best Team Composition in Anime Overload
To do well in Anime Overload, you have to utilize the six Hero slots given to you with utmost efficiency. To do this, you will need to have a proper team composition.
It is no secret that damage is king in tower defense games such as these, and Anime Overload is no exception, because at the end of the day, the goal is to kill as many enemies as fast as possible. Thus, it is completely viable to run a full squad of DPS units alone. These units include the likes of Crimson Queen (Dominant), Bald Hero (Super Serious), Sosoke (MS) and Sokono (Domain).
However, to fully unlock the potential of your lineup and actually allow yourself to farm money, you should consider bringing 1-2 Support heroes that specialize in crowd control, and 1 Farm hero. Namely, we are referring to characters such as Susono, Goju and Eskanor.
Also keep in mind that all characters have elemental properties which can potentially synergize with the abilities of some heroes. For example, some support heroes such as Ener only buff the stats of DPS heroes with specific elemental properties, Light and Storm in this case.
