In today’s article we are going to cover all of the best Saints in Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac and tell you why we chose our picks, so that you can form a powerful team as well and pass all of the game’s stages.
Now one important thing that you should keep in mind is always checking out to be up to date with the latest updates and upgrades in the game, so that your characters will always be as powerful as possible. That will help you pass the stages much easier, and even from the early stages where you don’t really have any super powerful Saints just yet and you will have to make do with what you’ve got.
There are a few types and rarities of heroes, and selecting from each category we have decided over a few of them which I consider to be some of the best, either because of their skill or because of the boost that it will bring to the team (especially in the supports’ case).
So, without further ado, here are all the best characters in Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac!
Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac – Best Bronze Saints
The bronze Saints are some of the easiest ones to obtain, since you can basically point at anything random and you have a chance to obtain a random Bronze hero. But even if they are that common, that doesn’t mean that they are all bad or useless.
Unicorn Jabu (A)
– Damage Dealer: 5/5
– Critical Hit: 2.5/5
– Speed: 3.5/5
– Control: 2/5
– Survive: 3/5
Position: AoE Wipeout, God Beast Gallop
This character is one of the best free heroes that you will get, and he will definitely prove himself worthy in terms of damage if you use the Unicorn Gallop at the perfect time.
Tip: Try pairing him up with Kiki and Nachi, and maybe even with Luna.
Phoenix Ikki (A)
– Damage Dealer: 5/5
– Critical Hit: 4/5
– Speed: 4.5/5
– Control: 2/5
– Survive: 3/5
Position: AoE Damage, Nirvana Magic Fist
This character will be a great addition for anyone who is trying to put together a good PvP team, because he will deal a ton of damage and will demolish the enemies very quickly. He is also extremely useful because of his resurrection skill.
Cygnus Hyoga (A)
– Damage Dealer: 4/5
– Critical Hit: 3/5
– Speed: 4/5
– Control: 4/5
– Survive: 4/5
Position: Ice Seal, White Swan from the North
Very well balanced character which, when paired up with Aquarius Camus, is going to unleash a very powerful link attack.
Tip: You can pair up Hyoga with Kiki, Camus, Isaak and Black Swan to have a team which inflicts a ton of crowd control.
Sextans Luna (B)
– Damage Dealer: 4/5
– Critical Hit: 2.5/5
– Speed: 4.5/5
– Control: 2/5
– Survive: 3/5
Position: Extra Move, Constellation Guide
She is one of the best supports in the game at the moment, and her skills set allows a team mate to attack twice in the same round, which is extremely powerful.
Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac – Best Silver Saints
Cephelus Daidalos (A)
– Damage Dealer: 5/5
– Critical Hit: 3/5
– Speed: 5/5
– Control: 3/5
– Survive: 4/5
Position: Life Leech Attack, Soulchain Transfer
In the late game and especially against the powerful bosses that you will encounter then, this will be a good Saint to prevent your team from getting destroyed within a couple of attacks!
Tip: Use Luna alongside him in any team comp!
Eagle Marin (A)
– Damage Dealer: 3/5
– Critical Hit: 2.5/5
– Speed: 4/5
– Control: 2/5
– Survive: 3.5/5
Position: AoE Heal, Silver Eagle
She is a very powerful healer, and her healing skills are related to her cosmic attack. so I really think that she is one of the most powerful healers in game at the moment.
Tip: Pair her up with June in order to increase her survivability in situations where you are facing powerful single target enemies.
Kaitos Moses (B)
– Damage Dealer: 4/5
– Critical Hit: 3/5
– Speed: 4.5/5
– Control: 4.5/5
– Survive: 4.5/5
Position: Vertigo Rush, Force of Kaitos
He is a very solid B rank unit, which provides good CC (crowd control). He is not hard to come by, so I could say that he is a very solid stun inflicting character.
Tip: Pair him up with Kiki and Luna!
Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac – Best Gold Saints
Pisces Aphrodite (S)
– Damage Dealer: 5/5
– Critical Hit: 4/5
– Speed: 2/5
– Control: 2/5
– Survive: 3/5
Position: Life Leech Rose, Fatal Youth
This is one of the best PvP characters, and if you manage to invest a lot into them so that you can unlock the seventh sense, then you can probably kick back and relax because your team will do just fine!
Tip: Pair him up with Kiki and Nachi, or with Kiki and Luna!
Aries Mu (S)
– Damage Dealer: 5/5
– Critical Hit: 4.5/5
– Speed: 5/5
– Control: 2/5
– Survive: 5/5
Position: Cosmic Shield Wall, Starlight Protector
He is one of the best tanks in game, so make sure that you use him to protect your valuable Saints. He will absorb damage and then he can redirect it to the enemy, so it can be an extremely powerful unit too.
Capricorn Shura (S)
– Damage Dealer: 5/5
– Critical Hit: 4/5
– Speed: 3/5
– Control: 2.5/5
– Survive: 3/5
Position: Combo Crit, Sacred Blade Edge
He is the best single target damage dealing unit in the game in my opinion, so if you happen to acquire him, you got yourself the best character in game in terms of damage dealing!
Tip: Pair him up with Kiki and anyone else you want, because he will do good no matter what!
Aquarius Camus (S)
– Damage Dealer: 5/5
– Critical Hit: 4/5
– Speed: 3/5
– Control: 5/5
– Survive: 3/5
Position: Frost Control, Aurora Execution
He is a good unit for inflicting freeze, and his single target damage is nothing to be joked about. He is good, and he provides just enough CC to the team.
Tip: Pair him up with Hyoga for chain freeze! A very good team would be Kiki, Luna, Hyoga, Camus and Black Swan.
Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac – Best Legendary Saints
Grand Pope (S)
– Damage Dealer: 4/5
– Critical Hit: 2/5
– Speed: 3/5
– Control: 5/5
– Survive: 4/5
Position: AoE Control and Relay Attacks, Lunatic Emperor
He has some pretty annoying and quite a lot of crowd control, so he can be considered the “CC King”.
Tip: Pair up with Luna and Kiki.
Saori Kido (S)
– Damage Dealer: 5/5
– Critical Hit: 2/5
– Speed: 5/5
– Control: 3/5
– Survive: 4/5
Position: Fake Death, Goddess Revive
She provides a lot of shields and damage reduction, which makes her a very powerful support. She can prevent allies from dying.
Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac – Best Marina Saints
All three Marina Saints are very powerful, so no matter which one you get they are all good. If you manage to get Siren Sorrento, then pair him up with Kiki and you are good to go! He is the best out of all three Marina in my opinion, but Scylla Io and Kiaken Isaac are not bad either.
Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac – Best “Other” Saints
Nero Priest (B)
– Damage Dealer: 4.5/5
– Critical Hit: 2/5
– Speed: 5/5
– Control: 2/5
– Survive: 3/5
Position: Silence Damage Buff, Fast Mage
She is a very powerful character to use in PvP because with 1 Energy each turn you can basically inflict Silence on 1 enemy, so it can be very powerful in certain situations.
Tip: Pair up with Kiki, Luna and Milo.
Kiki (B)
– Damage Dealer: 3/5
– Critical Hit: 2/5
– Speed: 5/5
– Control: 2/5
– Survive: 3/5
Position: Energy Overload, Ancient Sprite
Kiki is probably the best and most universally good character in the game, solely because of the Marsh Fairy which generates Energy. Kiki can be used in a ton of team compositions to boost the skills.
