The thrilling and mind-blowing fighting scenes make this series so captivating and intense. Each episode, with a battle, is packed with loads of action, thrill, and exciting twists. 

Therefore, this article will go through all those fascinating battles that got us all hooked and hollering. Though there are many, we will list the 11 best ones. 

Hence, without further ado, let’s discuss the top 11 Attack on Titan battles from good to best! 

11. “Rod Reiss vs The Survey Corps” Season#3

It took A LOT to stop Rod Reiss’s huge Titan. Compared to all the titans, Rod Reiss’s Titan was the most hideous to look at; even the Survey Corps would definitely agree with that. As it began its march outside the Orvud District, it was attracted to a huge density of people. As it finally made its way atop the wall, the Survey Corps and Eren were able to finish this deformed Titan. 

What I liked most about this battle; 

• The Survey Corps’ strategy to take out Rod Reiss’s Titan and the epic showdow. 

10. “Reiner, Bertolt, and Ymir vs The Survey Corps” Season#2 

As Commander Erwin devised a plan to topple the Armored Titan, the rest of the Survey Corps tried to reason with Bertolt. It was an exciting battle as we watched many titans in action. Another thing to be noted is that we got to see Reiner, Bertolt, and Ymir struggle to achieve their mission. The battle was worth watching as the Survey Corps successfully retrieved Eren. 

What I liked most about this battle; 

• Commander Erwin’s bravery and valor. 
• The Survey Corps’ strategic plan of freeing Eren from the enemies’ clutches. 
• The action-packed struggle against the hordes of titans. 

9. “Eren vs Reiner” Season#2 

After Reiner’s shocking and sudden announcement in the most serious tone possible- that he and Bertolt were the Armored and Colossal Titans, respectively- Eren and the rest of the Survey Corps were utterly stunned. Following their mighty transformation, Eren realized the betrayal he had received and transformed into his titan in a fit of emotional rage. Thus, the two face off in an epic throwdown as the tussle for power continues. 

What I liked most about this battle; 

• Reiner and Bertolt’s revelation of being Titan Shifters. 
• Eren and Reiner fight for power in an intense face-off. 

8. “Eren and Armin vs Bertolt” Season#3 

This battle truly tested the patience, skill, and determination of the Survey Corps. Armin was always seen as more intelligent and strategic rather than able to fight well on the battlefield. However, during this grueling fight, he dramatically displayed his brain power. 

While engaging in such an exhausting battle was already hard for Armin- it was also vital to buy Eren enough time to plug the hole in the wall and attack the Colossal Titan from the nape. Armin was almost burned due to Bertolt's intense bouts of steam; while clinging on, it was what essentially defeated Bertolt's huge Titan. 

What I liked most about this battle;

• Armin buys enough time for Eren to act. 
• Armin almost burned to death.
• Eren's act of slicing Bertolt from his Titan's nape.

7. “Eren and the Survey Corps vs Titans” Season#1 

Five years after the titans first attacked humanity, they were thinking of a way to maintain their peace again. Still, the Colossal Titan appeared out of nowhere and blew a huge hole in the wall Rose- causing countless titans to infiltrate the area. 

Since the Trost district was quite vulnerable to titan attacks, not only did the Survey Corps have a hard time keeping off and fighting the mindless monsters, but they also had to devise a plan to plug up the wall. 

This emotional battle witnessed the emergence of Eren’s Titan powers, even though he got devoured by a titan. Turning into a Titan Shifter proved helpful for humanity to turn the tables, and not only did Eren get out of the terrifying situation, but he also won the entire battle of Trost on his own. 

What I liked most about this battle;

• Eren’s monumental transformation into a Titan Shifter. 
• The Survey Corps’ and Eren’s will and perseverance to fight and survive. 

6. “Levi vs The Female Titan” Season#1 

After the Female Titan had successfully ripped Eren out of his Titan and made a run for it- Mikasa and Levi followed them as fast as they could. Even though he told Mikasa that their main goal was to retrieve Eren safely and not go after the newly discovered Titan Shifter to finish it, he did just that. 

Levi showed his agility and skillfulness and proved in that fight with the Female Titan, why he was the most experienced soldier. He sliced up the Female Titan with such thorough quickness that she wasn't able to put up a fight. Thus, Levi grabbed Eren from her mouth and escaped with Mikasa. 

Mind you; The Female Titan was one of the most dangerous Titan shifters because it knew martial arts well. This one surely left all Levi fans in complete awe! 

What I liked most about this battle; 

• Levi’s sharp and skilful abilities to tackle and fight any Titan. 

5. “Eren vs Annie” Season#1 

Following the shocking revelation of Annie Leonhart being a Titan Shifter, aka the Female Titan, the Survey Corps put together a plan to capture her; however, they failed to do so as she transformed- causing panic and mayhem in the city of Stohess. This led to the Survey Corps having a lot on their plate to handle, as Eren needed to control his Titan powers properly. 

Nevertheless, both transformed into their Titans and battled head-to-head in a gruesome, grueling, and bloody fight. This battle saw both Annie and Eren fighting ruthlessly, crushing buildings, killing people, and non-stop smashing their fists at one another. However, in the end, Annie was defeated with Mikasa's help. 

What I liked most about this battle; 

• Eren's gripping transformations.
• Annie and Eren's edge-of-the-seat showdown. 

4. “Ymir vs The Utgard Tower Titans” Season#2 

This battle was literally a one-woman show courtesy of none other than Ymir, the Jaw Titan. 

Connie, Historia, Reiner, Bertolt, and Ymir were trapped on top of the Utgard castle with no gear, weapons, or other Survey Corps members to fight the titans. It was a desperate situation as the titans kept penetrating the wall, aiming towards the tower- wanting it to fall. 

All of them were about to get devoured before Ymir- who jumped off the tower with a cut on her hand, transformed into the Jaw Titan. She then proceeds to take out most of the titans. Compared to the other titans, Ymir’s titan was the smallest and not quite pleasant to look at. Nonetheless, if it weren’t for Ymir’s transformation and battling the other titans, the members of the Survey Corps would have never made it out alive. 

What I liked most about this battle; 

• Ymir’s unflinching courage despite being the only one able to battle the countless titans that kept swarming in. 

3. “Levi vs The Beast Titan” Season#3 

The battle where the Scouts and Eren faced their enemies in a full fledged war for the first time was in the Shiganshina district. This is also where the Beast Titan was seen in full action as he enjoyed killing all that came in his way and continued to bombard the Survey Corps with rocks and boulders. 

As the Survey Corps faced heavy losses, tackling the Beast Titan was on Levi’s shoulders. When Levi took on the Beast Titan for the first time, he was full of brimming rage. Most of his comrades had been taken out by the Beast like insects. He didn’t let the Beast Titan hit him even once. 

Levi’s vengeance was merciless, yet he took his sweet time defeating the Beast Titan. He sliced off his fingers, cut his feet, severed his eyes, and took Zeke out of his nape in a matter of seconds without giving him a chance to harden his neck. 

Levi Ackermann is not someone anybody would want to mess with! 

What I liked most about this episode: 

•    Levi’s perfect payback.

2. “Levi vs His Own Titan Squad” Season#4 

Better known as Levi vs The Beast Titan part 2, this fight was more aggressive than the first. 

No doubt the Beast Titan found the worst ways to mess with Levi; however, the second time we saw both these powerful men fight for power was when Zeke was being monitored by Levi and hundreds of his cadets in a giant forest. 

Events turned horrifying, as Zeke let out a chilling scream that transformed all his cadets into titans-as Marley’s wine was laced with Zeke’s spinal fluid. Wanting to avoid getting eaten, Levi personally had to kill all of his cadets, which infuriated him. 

Tactfully using the huge trees of the forest and well-aimed thunder spears, Levi battled Zeke once again and successfully drew him out of his Beast Titan’s nape. He might as well have ended his life then and there, but he didn’t.

What I liked most about this battle; 

• All the cadets turned into monsters. 
• Levi takes down Zeke again in a high-sounding clash. 

1. “Eren vs The WarHammer Titan” Season#4 

This battle was one of the MOST adrenaline-rushing wars that ever took place in the Attack on Titan's series. 

After blowing up Willy Tybur's stage due to his transformation, Eren continued his violent rampage on the people of Marley. Nonetheless, he was soon interrupted as Lara transformed into the War Hammer Titan. Hailing from one of the noble families, the War Hammer Titan was a well-kept secret of the Tybur family. 

Fuming with a sense of vengeance for her brother's death, she took on Eren head-to-head and engaged in a bloody, gruesome clash. She took him to the point where he was forced to come out of his nape and took Mikasa's assistance to try to end the War Hammer's advances. 

However, Eren's mind-blowing strategy got the best of Lara. He forcibly used the Jaw Titan's teeth to break through her hardened crystal and consumed her fluids to gain the Titan's power. 

What I liked most about this battle; 

• The War Hammer Titan gives Eren a hard time throughout the fight.
• Eren's brutal way of inheriting the Titan powers.
