In Invincible: Guarding the Globe Patch 3.5, focus your resource investments on core top-tier units—specifically Battle Beast for high-output damage and Atom Eve for squad sustain. Lower-tier characters are best used as rank-up material ("food") to elevate your primary team's level cap rather than spreading upgrade materials across a broad roster.
| Hero / Category | Role & Function | Strategic Value | Investment Priority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Battle Beast | Primary Damage Dealer | High offensive output that carries difficult stages regardless of squad synergy | Max priority core investment |
| Atom Eve | Primary Support | Grants protection and sustain needed for survival in GDA Ops and campaign stages | High priority core investment |
| Rex Splode | Mid-Tier Utility | Provides situational damage and helps fulfill specific faction bonus requirements | Selective / secondary priority |
| Dupli-Kate | Mid-Tier Utility | Delivers niche crowd control for specific battle scenarios | Selective / secondary priority |
| Low-Tier Units | Fusion Material | Serves as rank-up fodder ("food") to advance top-tier hero ranks | Do not level; reserve for fusion |
Core Upgrades: Battle Beast and Atom Eve
Battle Beast serves as the primary damage engine for post-patch 3.5 compositions. His raw offensive scaling allows him to carry teams through tough campaign stages and high-level content without relying on specific team synergies to deal heavy damage.
Atom Eve provides essential defense and healing for your team's frontline. In game modes like GDA Ops and late campaign progression, damage output alone is insufficient if your squad dies early in extended encounters. Investing in Atom Eve ensures your primary damage dealers stay alive long enough to clear waves.
Managing Mid-Tier and Utility Heroes
Mid-tier units like Rex Splode and Dupli-Kate offer utility in niche scenarios rather than universal performance:
- Rex Splode: Useful when your squad requires secondary damage or needs extra members to activate a specific faction stat bonus.
- Dupli-Kate: Effective when fights call for additional crowd control to disrupt enemy actions.
These units require higher relative resource investment to match the output of top-tier heroes. Avoid splitting your materials evenly across multiple mid-tier units. Only invest in them when your main core is already capped or when a specific stage requires their tactical utility.
Resource Management and Squad Building
To keep progression steady through higher difficulty spikes, apply a strict investment hierarchy:
- Build around two core anchors: Place Battle Beast in your main damage slot and Atom Eve in your support slot.
- Fill flex slots deliberately: Choose remaining squad members to counter enemy factions or fulfill crowd control needs.
- Trigger faction bonuses: Align member factions to activate passive stat boosts for the entire squad.
- Use low-tier heroes as rank-up fodder: Treat lower-tier character pulls as fusion material to increase the rank ceiling of your primary heroes.
- Optimize gear over secondary teams: If your squad stalls on a stage, refine gear and artifacts on your top-tier heroes before building a secondary roster.

Nice guide. I am checking the other Invincible: Guarding the Globe articles next.
Can you add more details about heroes in a future update?
This helped me understand heroes much better.
I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
