On Field

Saber is a great soft nuke. When compared to other nuke units like Sukuna, you might think her damage pales in comparison, however, this unit is one where you have to take advantage of her 4-unit placement.

Use all 4 Shinigami Sabers at your disposal and place them in a way that all their AoEs intersect. This way, you’re getting 4x nuke damage over the same area. 

With support units that buff range, the potential of Shinigami Saber is further unlocked. With a large AoE nuke, this unit becomes extremely powerful, capable of clearing most opponents on the field in one go.

And that’s everything on Shinigami Saber in Anime Last Stand. If this complete Shinigami Saber guide is the push you need to start summoning her, then you also might be interested in a secret Legendary character to really round out your team!
