Essential Traits to Farm:

December 2025 Meta Insights:

Ruler trait has completely shifted the meta for Infinite Mode. Units with Ruler trait deal 3x damage, making previously mid-tier units into top performers. Jinoo with Ruler is now considered mandatory for wave 100+ content. Budget players should focus on Admiral (Magma) + Ronin Obito + Rule (ROOM) as they are free/accessible and form a strong core team.
