One of the biggest challenges most players run into when fighting Athena is that their units don't deal any damage to it. This is because the enemies in the Athenyx's Realm can only be defeated by units that do ground damage. Hence, using hybrid or any other unit will be rendered useless during the boss fight.

Your best option is to use units like the Cursed Fighter, Ant King, and Skull Warrior. Players who have Fire Leg Master, The Beast, or Water Swordmaster are also safe and should utilize these units. Note that you can only bring three regular units to the Athenyx's Realm.

Pick the units carefully and only take the ones that are ground-based and deal heavy damage. Apart from this, your unit placement and timing will come into play when dealing with Athena in the game. So, keep trying and experiment with different ground units till you succeed.

Update 5 introduced a completely new area to the game called the Athenyx's Realm. Only players who are at least Level 30 can enter this realm and check out the new content. Inside, you will find various challenges, quests, and the Athenyx's Realm-specific Battlepass.

Besides this, you can only carry three of your regular units to the realm. Once inside, you can fight through challenges and obtain new units. However, you must have the Tethers to bring these units back to the regular game. Without this new item, you will leave all the units you obtain in the Athenyx's Realm behind.

You can obtain Tethers by completing the Battlepass or through the various challenges in the Athenyx's Realm. Further, note that you require Tethers of equal rarity as the unit that you're trying to bring back with you.
