Since the 6th Anniversary events started this week along with the announcement of Your All Max returning in January of this year a lot of players have jumped to watch videos of some YouTubers to get recommendations, but YouTubers logic is quite awful, so instead I will drop here all the relevant information we have.
- Most popular non-black cards/collaboration leaders
- Members you should consider to build around if you have them
- Jackpots that used to be popular in 2017-2018 but they are not as strong anymore
The below quote is modified by me from the previous year all max to match the current event.
Quote:To express our gratitude for your continuous support, Summoner can login the game on 27 Jan (Thu), the day of the 6th Anniversary, to obtain 1 selected Monster that has never owned before! Select 1 Race and Attribute in the specific drawing machine; The system will automatically filter your owned Monsters, and randomly sort out 5 Monsters that match your preference for the Race and Attribute you’ve chosen. You can pick one out of the five choices. The Monster given is on Max Lv, Max Skill Lv and Max Amelioration (if applicable)!
Note 1: Monsters of the specific drawing machine include Monsters of Limited Seal (Except for Collaboration Monsters)
Note 2: Monsters of the specific drawing machine include Monsters of Diamond Seal (Except for Black Gold Monsters)
Note 3: The specific drawing machine only includes Monsters of its highest form (Except for Virtual Rebirth)
Note 4: If the suggested Monsters are less than 5 after filtering, the system will make up the number by randomly providing eligible Monsters (including Monsters you’ve already owned)
The complete list of cards based on Attributes and Race
Current Top Choices
Fiend of Destruction - Azathoth: After almost 1 year he is still in the S tier and is quite unlikely that he will leave that place soon unless Madhead really decides to introduce a huge power creep. He was the most picked card in the previous All Max reward, but
DON'T pick him if you don't have Novalis and Ursula, those are his core members and without them you won't have many options for damage. Currently, there are 2 meta threads dedicated to him which cover around the same stuff.
Demiurge of Antinomy - Daoloth: Still strong as last year, but it is quite problematic to get his members since most of them tend to come from events. You will mainly need access to Fenrir, Pluma, Colin, and Lady Whitebones. He is lacking specific utilities like unlock and his recovery problems are making it so players move to more flexible teams.
Dream Gobbler - Ghroth: Since Hiei is not returning, the only decent demon leader in the game is Ghroth. By getting him you will also get a super strong member that can be used in different teams and the arena. You can also pair him with some Prologue of the Universe members to get access to his complete team skill.
Carefree Mindset - Zero: Arguably the best beast leader right now, and since his series is currently in rotation you can get enough Cathieves members to get his full potential. Also he does have a lot of potential without beasts because his leader skill is way too strong. Beast members are also easy to get via diamond seal and events with really high utility and damage and Cathieves don't really have problems with recovery so I would really recommend going for him now that beasts have an almost complete set of utilities. The artwork might not be appealing, but don't let the look fool you.
Chittamatra - Brahma: Across the top choices I think he is the most fun to play, his active skill is really strong and can also be used as a decent member. As a leader, you can use any God for utility or damage sake and call it a day until some enemy stops you. Gods are not missing anything right now except unfreeze. I just a meta thread talking about all the details of his skills and what are the most standard members to choose.
Ascetic Mind - Vishnu: My personal favorite since he is designed for Pollux and Luna, can use the same utility as Brahma and have built-in damage reduction. If you have Luna you can't go wrong choosing Vishnu. There is another thread I created for him where you can read all the details, I also recommend watching some of his videos in YouTube so you can see how powerful and aggressive his playstyle can be.

Major Gods of Babylon:
As a whole, they do deserve a mention because if you don't have a specific race, but specific attribute I would recommend you to move to this series,
if you are a newbie or returning player I highly recommend you to go for this route because it is better to build a single attribute first and later move to other specializations with race. As for those that will come and say
HURR DURR WHY NOT GREEK?!?, well let me tell you
hurr durr, Greek is not as strong, actives doesn't pack as much utility and are heavily dependant on members and RNG to get somewhere, so new players are better with leaders that can ignore board hazards like this and also get decent damage from the first batch, also taking a while to practice the Babylon playstyle can improve your entire spinning skills and maximize the usage of amelioration bonuses. Sure, you can't get them ready in Virtual Rebirth state, so I would recommend saving the python that is being given as a reward in this patch to get the Virtual Rebirth without having to deal with the really annoying VR stage.
Popular Core Members that are worth taking
Dream Gobbler - Ghroth: I am tired of watching him getting super high scores in the arena by just using his active skill in the last round. this being said you can use him in any leader that doesn't lock your race and increase your arena score by a lot thanks to him, after that you should be getting a steady amount of diamonds every week that you can use in the banner of your preference.
Gemini of Recall - Pollux: x6 self-booster with high stats an can't be reset is one of the most powerful cards in long battles, God leaders and dark mono love him so if you have any of that just go for him.
Libra of Justice - Luna: She is a staple member to have because without her you can't build teams with Lucifer or Pollux as the main damage source. So yeah, to get the full potential of Vishnu, Apollo, Inanna and Maya you will need to have this card. Also her amelioration packs a team-wide boost for god members and an extra second of movement of runestones that never hurts.
Engulfing Darkness - Novalis: Without him, most dragon teams are completely useless, especially Copper and Azathoth, this being said if you have any of those two and you are willing to build dragons simply choose this guy.
Reverberation of the Whirpools - Ursula: The dragon counterpart of Luna, if you already have Novalis and a dragon leader go for her, otherwise pick Novalis first.
Eye of Compassion - Sariel: I have seen a lot of players that already have strong teams but tend to struggle with debuffs, why to build a new team if you are missing so important as Sariel to improve what you already have?
Mischievous Wit - Lü Dongbin: He is a really strong mono dark leader, or God leader if you decide to play him along with He Xian'Gu as adjutant. His active skill is similar to Qi Tian Di, so he could help you deal easily with many obstacles like trojan combo or electrified.
Cards that were popular and you should ABSOLUTELY NOT go for them
Twisted Fate - Ophiuchus: During 2017 he was really powerful because his kit is very strong, but the main damage source for him comes from the combo of Luna and Pollux, which modern god leaders mentioned previously can use way better than him. So yeah, in 2018-2019 there is no real reason to pick him unless you really want a time tunnel for your Earth Mono.
Aesthetic Vixen Su Daji: We are not in 2014, move on, she is useless in current scenarios, no damage, and horrendous cooldown even with her dragonware.
Dragon Crescent Blade - Guan Yu: She used to be cool... in 2016. So nope don't go for her, the multiplier is practically non-existent and the RNG skydrop won't help you at all. The only real reason to pick her is for collection sake and nothing else.
The Untamed Fang - Zhurong: EVEN WORSE THAN GUAN YU, she is the most awful jackpot released in 2018, I don't know what the fuck was madhead thinking when they made this useless kit, she doesn't deal damage and focus the entire damage curve in to her, so nope, avoid wasting resources in this card please.
Bionic Immortal - Li Tieguai: Early Machina leader, he is bad as Zhurong in terms of design, if you really want a machina leader please just wait until a new one is released because Li Tieguai struggles with a lot of problems and his presence is non-existent in current meta.
Rekindled Honor - Cornflower: also known as super dry. Sadly I know that he is the only limited time seal leader available for water right now, but if you are considering going for him just for water mono, then you are better just going and getting VR Atrahasis instead. Cornflower is doing better with Water elf archetype, but still feels lacking and needs a lot of improvement that
madhead is not willing to bring.
