When you think of anime, King Arthur probably isn’t the first character who springs to mind. And while the Anime Last Stand Knight King Unit isn’t exactly King Arthur, it’s pretty dang close. In this guide, we’ll show you how to get it, and how to use it.
Anime Last Stand is a Roblox Tower Defence experienced rammed to the gills with anime characters. Favourites from huge series’ like Dragon Ball and Naruto can be found here, as well as some more obscure characters, like Artoria Pendragon from Fate/stay night. She goes by Knight King in-game, where she’s one of the very best Units you can roll. This guide will show you why.
You can check out Anime Last Stand for yourself on Roblox. For those keen to enjoy the new update, our Anime Last Stand Portals guide is for you.
Complete Anime Last Stand Knight King Guide
In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process of getting the Knight King Unit, her stats, and some select strategies for using her in battle.
How To Get Knight King
Knight King is a Celestial rarity Unit, which means it’s one of the rarest in the game. It’s available exclusively through Banner 2 at the Summon bar. If you haven’t unlocked this yet, you can do so by completing Act 6 of Planet Nemak in the game’s Story mode.
Each time you check Banner 2, there’s a chance Knight King will be present as a roll option. Your odds of rolling her are 0.5%, or 1 in 200, so you’ll need a tonne of Emeralds to roll her reliably. If you really want her on your squad, save up your Emeralds until she appears in the Summon bar, then roll as much as possible to maximise your chances of getting her.

How To Use Knight King
As with most Celestial Units, Knight King is so good in terms of raw stats that where you place her isn’t hugely important. That said, there are ways to optimise your strategy to accommodate her. First and foremost among these is leaning hard into Money generation.
Since it’s incredibly expensive to upgrade Knight King to her final form, you’ll want to invest in some Anime Last Stand Farm Units to boost your finances. This is well worth it, as doing so nearly doubles her damage and unlocks the deadly Mana Release ability. This is so crucial, in fact, that Knight King may be one of the only non-Farm Units worth using the Entrepreneur Technique on.
In terms of placement, anywhere works, but make sure you choose a spot that makes the most of her wide range, and allows the damage over time from Mana Release enough time to take effect.
