Every unit in Triangle Strategy is unique. For example, while both Frederica and Corentin are mages, the former is offensive-focused while the latter is better for support roles. There’s arguably a role for all of them depending on the terrain, type of enemies present, and even weather conditions, making everyone useful in some way.
However, some of them are simply more useful than others. Here are our personal picks for best units in Triangle Strategy (in no particular order).
Serenoa Wolffort
We’re not just saying this because he’s the main character.Serenoais one of—if not the best—offensive unit in the game. Serenoa has high strength, high evasion, and an even higher luck stat. He learns a passive skill that lets himcounterphysical attacks. By boosting his critical and evasion stats, he’s near-invincible.
Maxwell
Ser Maxwell’s kit is very similar to Serenoa’s, where heevadesattacks andcountersthem. He may not have Serenoa’s high-crit stat, but the fun part about Maxwell lies in his added mobility withTraverse. This skill allows him to tile hop and take another turn. It’s very good for setting up follow-up attacks.
Did we mention that he’s also the only character to have anauto-revivepassive? It can only proc once per battle, but it’ll allow you to more comfortably make risker maneuvers.
Benedict Pascal
As long as you have a steady stream of turn points (TPs),Benedict’sNow…!andTwofold Turnskills are unbeatable. Now…! lets an ally immediately move after him, while Twofold Turn lets an ally act twice on their next turn. He can also buff attacks, defenses, and movement, though items let you do the same.
Erador Ballentine
In a map with a lot of nearby enemies,Eradorcanprovokeeveryone who is two tiles away or nearer. With high HP and a higher physical defense, he’ll tank every hit (except magic attacks). Provoke can be upgraded to only cost one TP later on, so Erador can keep doing this to infinity.

He also gets three amazing passives that support this strategy. One lets him take less damage at below-50% HP, the second decreases damage taken from back attacks, and the last one counters physical attacks. By doing absolutely nothing but surviving, Erador can deal damage while keeping everyone safe.
Anna Pascal
Annais fast and can hide herself from enemies. However, her real talent lies in herAct Twicepassive skill. By moving her to a tile opposite an enemy who is adjacent to one of your more powerful allies, she can deal twofollow-up attacksin succession. And since she’s fast, she can do this a lot.
Julio Wrightman
Units can have all the best skills in the game, but they’re useless if they don’t have enough TPs to use them. That’s whereJuliocomes in. His entire kit is dedicated topassing TPsand generating them. He can even give Benedict the ability to use Now…! four to five turns in a row. If you place Julio beside mages, he can also continuously supply them with TPs to use for spells.
Medina Alliam
Medinais arguably the best support character in the game, provided that you’re well-stocked on items. For example, her passive ensures that every recovery item she uses has an increased effect.Long Toss’ increased item range ensures she can act like every other healer… except for the fact that she can healtwice, thanks to herDouble Itemsskill. And that she’s faster than them. And that she has an upgraded movement of six.

But that’s not all. As long as you have Swift Spices in your bag, Medina canemulate Benedict’s Now…!for one less TP. Speaking of TPs, she later on gets a passive thatgrants one TP to every allyshe throws an item to. If you throw a Ranged Recovery Pellet (which lets up to five allies recover HP) twice, it’s infinite skills all day.
Archibald Genoe
If there are cliffs in the map,Archibaldis your man. He has low movement but an insanelyhigh attack rangethat he can strike an enemy on the far-end of the map if he’s positioned high enough. Plus, the further away the enemy is, the more damage he deals.
Cordelia Glenbrook
Cordeliamay not be the best healer (that’s still Medina), but she’s your lady if you want heals without needing to waste items. Cordelia healsbigandfar. They cost more TPs than Geela’s but her passive lets her gain an extra TP as long as she doesn’t move from the tile she’s on.
Quahaug
WithWarped Space,Quahaugcan get allies up and downheightsquicker than Jens (the guy who can create ladders) can. He’s very useful infarmingon the Abandoned Village maps, where all the spoils and treasure chests are located. Turn Back Time is useful as a psudo-heal, as it can revert a unit’s HP back to what it was in the previous turn.
Quahaug also has a unique skill that canstop time for everyoneon the map but him for two turns. It’s useful for staving off status effects and positioning him closer to allies that need his help. You can also use the extra turns to throw items!
Avlora
Avlorais a one-woman army—a heavy-hitting unit with an equally impressive HP, defense, and evasion stat. She’s so sturdy that there’s never any rush to heal her. Plus, the lower her HP is, the more damage she deals. With an accessory like theBlack Anklet, which lowers HP every turn for a power boost, she’s nigh unstoppable.
