Attack reducers have the potential to be completely useless. Got an Anima attack reducer when a Phantom team decides to attack you despite your Divina lead (it happens--I should know)? Sorry, King of Fighters, but your efforts are for nothing. You can't change your defense team to counter the attack team accordingly.

Defense reducers are useful not only in towers but also in PvP. Not as useful, I know, but as long as you mind which reducers you're using, you can at least reduce the defense of the leader. Found a Divina whale team hiding behind Odairi? Well, at least Shotaro Fuma's efforts aren't entirely for nothing. You are able to change your attack team according to what you think you'll be up against. Yes, defense reducers have the potential to be useless even if they activate, but that's only if you're using the daemon for its raw attack and/or you're hoping that you'll find the suitable type of daemon behind the "wrong type" leader. (No, seriously, I won't use Satellite Cannon against a March Hare leader unless either I know/hope the player is hiding a Divina whale team behind March Hare and/or if Satellite Cannon has super high raw attack compared to the other daemons in my deck.)

Assuming that everything else is the same or as close to the same as it can get (stats, scenario), def reducers > atk reducers, period.
