Pros	Boasting the highest Agility in the game, he provides a huge increase to the team's battle speed. This is further amplified if Purple and if P3 is unlocked. Corrosive Malice provides Phys Pierce, an innate Speedster, a 100% Critical hit rate, and reduces the count of Spirit Chains of Intimidation received on self by 2, protecting himself against Nuwa's and Medusa's Intimidation. When attacking first at the start of battle, he grants a Press Turn Icon (like Masakado A), places 1 count of Malice and grants Might to all party members. He provides a party-wide aura that grants +40% to Physical hit rate and single-target damage if they have at least 1 count of Malice. Furthermore, when all party members have at least 1 count of Malice, all enemies will take an extra 20% damage from Critical hits. His 20% Reverse damage reduction for Critical hits synergizes well with his Might application and other Physical units that provide extra RDR like Fionn mac Cumhaill. Consider pairing up with Mitra-Buddha to reliably re-apply Might to all party members. Piercing Tyranny is a powerful Almighty attack that casts a 1-turn Rakunda+ if successful. Great awakening skills that each have their own purpose. Red provides a Dark based Magic attack if encountering an Evasive team, Yellow for buff control and Purple for extra battle speed to further fortify his speed bot role. Good but not mandatory panels. P2 is the main highlight for giving an extra 15% accuracy, 20% Battle Speed boost and providing a 1-turn Tarukaja+ after Piercing Tyranny is used.
Cons	Weak to Ice unless Teal. Null Bind is locked behind P1, and is still susceptible to every other ailment. Has no way to re-apply Might. Piercing Tyranny nor Mayhem ignore Counters and Endures or revive seal.
Notes	Buffed during the 6/5/25 Data Update.
Synergies	Fionn mac Cumhaill Artemis Mitra-Buddha
