If you’ve been grinding King Legacy PvP and wondering how everyone else is melting you in a few hits, you’re not alone. The sword meta in this game can feel like a mystery unless you’re deep in the ranked trenches, or plugged into the community. So I decided to go straight to the source. I reached out to five of the top PvP players in King Legacy and asked them each to list their Top 5 swords. Then I took all their lists, compared the overlaps, and ranked the most commonly chosen swords across the board. No fluff. Just real picks from players who win consistently. If you’re looking to climb, optimize your build, or just want to stay competitive, this guide’s got you covered.
Top 6 PvP Swords (Why These Swords Matter in PvP)
Before we get into the actual rankings, let’s talk about what makes a sword good in PvP in the first place.
We’re not just talking about raw damage here. The best PvP swords in King Legacy have a mix of the following:
- Ken Break/Shred (to counter dodge spammers)
- Good Range or Drag (to control fights)
- Low Cooldowns & Fast Casting
- Synergy with combos or stun setups
- Consistency — not just flashy damage
With that in mind, here are the six swords that dominate PvP right now, plus one honorable mention that’s borderline busted once you get your hands on it.
Number 6 – Blood Moon Twins
Underrated no more. Blood Moon Twins used to be forgettable, but after a recent buff, it’s become a solid and surprisingly reliable pick in PvP.
- Fast casting speed
- Reasonable cooldowns
- Smoother skill flow
It doesn’t have a flashy kit, but it works. If you’re looking for a balanced sword with good uptime and fluid gameplay, Blood Moon Twins is finally worth the pick.
Number 5 – Saber V2
Old favorite, still meta. Saber V2 continues to hold its spot in the top ranks thanks to its combo potential and dodge-piercing power.
- Z-skill breaks dodge + drags in opponents
- X-skill hits hard and reliably
If you know how to time your combos, Saber V2 will carry you in PvP. It’s consistent, powerful, and still one of the most well-rounded swords in the game.
Number 4 – Shell Reaper
This is where the list gets spicy.
Shell Reaper looks like a meta-defining sword:
- Huge lifesteal
- Multi-hit burst damage
- Potential to melt opponents
But in practice? It’s not quite there yet. It doesn’t have Ken break, lacks mobility, and most players haven’t mastered it due to how rare it is. It’s also very new, so time will tell whether it climbs higher or drops off completely.
For now, it stays at number four. Still dangerous—but not the mythical menace some people claim it is. It’s not just rare, it lacks Ken break and mobility, making it overhyped for a 0.1% mythical.
Number 3 – Draken Fangs
Saber V2’s scarier older sibling. Draken Fangs takes everything good about Saber and cranks it up.
- Breaks Ken faster
- Long drag range
- Knockback damage to control space
This sword is all about aggression and pressure. It forces opponents to reposition constantly, giving you control over the pace of every fight. If you’re an offensive player, Draken Fangs is a top-tier tool in your kit.
Number 2 – Riptide Slayer
If Draken Fangs is brute force, Riptide Slayer is finesse with a blade.
- Bypasses Ken AND breaks dodge
- Straight slash deals massive burst damage
- Slightly faster and smoother for PvP timing
Riptide Slayer is just a bit more optimized than Draken Fangs, especially when you’re trying to clutch out close fights. The range, speed, and dodge-breaking make it perfect for high-skill reactive play.
Honorable Mention – Hunter Blade
This sword didn’t make the top 6 only because of accessibility. But let me be real: Hunter Blade is cracked.
- Top-tier stun
- Short cooldowns
- Perfect for infinite combo builds
If you’ve ever been combo-locked by someone using this, you know how nasty it is. The only reason it’s not officially ranked is because a lot of players—especially newer ones—don’t have it yet.
Once it becomes more common? Expect it to break into the top ranks fast.
Number 1 – Authentic Triple Katana V2 (ATK V2)
This sword isn’t just meta—it is the meta. Every single top PvP player I asked ranked ATK V2 as their number one pick. No debate.
Here’s why:
- Best range of any sword
- Instant Ken break
- Unique 3-gear Z ability
- Versatile in literally every PvP situation
Whether you’re trying to win close duels or full-blown ranked matches, this is the sword to beat. It’s fast, powerful, and crazy stylish. ATK V2 is what you bring when you’re going all in.
Bonus PvP Notes & Why Some Other Swords Didn’t Make It
- Kirou V2 + Control V2 is a solid combo for control-heavy, stun-based builds.
- Ethereal Sword didn’t appear in any top 5 lists. Not because it’s bad—just not a current favorite among elite PvP players.
- Dawnbreaker is still bugged. One of its skills can be escaped too easily, which makes it unreliable in real PvP matches.
Wrap-Up: ATK V2 is King!
That wraps up our ranking of the Top 6 PvP Swords in King Legacy, verified by some of the best players in the scene right now.
Whether you agree with every pick or not, one thing’s clear: mastering PvP isn’t just about skill—it’s also about choosing the right tools for the fight. If you’re serious about improving, start experimenting with these swords and see which ones fit your playstyle.
