===Edit Teams===
This menu option is where you can edit your team to bring into battle. 

A maximum of fifteen teams can be created and can be switched to by swiping the teams left and right. It is possible to name each of your teams.

The defensive team used for arena defenses can also be set here.

If a team slot is empty, a Hero can be added by just tapping him/her from the list. To replace a Hero, tap his/her portrait to replace on the team and then select the Hero replacing him/her.

Heroes can be sorted in a variety of ways, which can be done by tapping "Sorting" and select one of the various sorting labels.

To learn more specifically about various Heroes, view the [[List of Heroes]].

===Ally Growth===
====Level Up====
{{Main|Experience}}
It is possible to level up units without taking them into battle using shards and crystals. This will not adversely affect the unit's stats in any way.

Shards are used to level a unit to 20 while crystals are used beginning at Level 21 to the maximum Level of 40. Shards and crystals have different colors, and the color used will depend on the color of the unit to be leveled. There is also a universal shard/crystal (gold-colored) which can be used for any color units.

The game will use color-specific shards or crystals first before using the universal shards or crystals to level up.
====Learn Skills====
{{Main|Skills#Skill Basics / Learning Skills}}
This menu option is where units can learn new skills. To learn skills, a unit needs to have enough Skill Points (SP) in order to learn a skill. SP can be obtained through battle by leveling up, and successfully defeating enemy units.
====Inherit Skills====
{{Main|Inheritance Guide}}
Skill inheritance allows units to learn skills from other units not learned by default. For example, {{Ht|Nailah: Unflinching Eye}}'s {{Pt|Distant Counter}} can be inherited by other units, allowing them to use Distant Counter as well. These skills inherited cost 1.5x the original amount of SP to learn.

However, not all units can learn every skill. There are three types of restrictions:

* Weapon-Type Restriction (e.g. Healing skills can only be learned by {{Wtt|colorless staff}} users.)
* Movement-Type Restriction (e.g. {{Pt|Goad Armor}} can only be learned by {{Mt|armored}} units.)
* [[Exclusive Skills]] (e.g. {{At|Sing}} can only be learned by the units who come with it.)
====Unlock Potential====
{{Main|Unlock Potential}}
Unlocking Potential is upgrading a unit's star rarity such as {{Rarity|3}} to {{Rarity|4}} or {{Rarity|4}} to {{Rarity|5}}, etc.

In order to unlock the potential of a unit, the following is needed:
* Feathers (Amount varies based on star rarity)
* Badges / Great Badges (Amount and type varies based on star rarity)
* From a {{Rarity|1}} to a {{Rarity|2}}, it will cost twenty feathers and five badges ( of their respective color )
* From a {{Rarity|2}} to a {{Rarity|3}}, it will cost 200 feathers and ten badges ( of their respective color )
* From a {{Rarity|3}} to a {{Rarity|4}}, it will cost 2,000 feathers and twenty badges ( of their respective color )
* From a  {{Rarity|4}} to a {{Rarity|5}}, it will cost 20,000 feathers and twenty Great badges ( of their respective color )
* In total, to get a {{Rarity|1}}  to a {{Rarity|5}}, it will cost 22,220 feathers, thirty-five badges and twenty Great badges.
====Merge Allies====
{{Main|Merge Allies}}
Unit duplicates can be merged.

There are a few things that can happen when merging depending on the Star Rarity of the units used:
{{Merge Allies Effects}}

The remaining enhanced unit will receive the bonuses listed above, but any levels or SP from the source ally will be lost forever.

Favorited units cannot be merged into other heroes. A unit is favorited if there is a heart icon on his/her icon.
