Pros	Panel 3 is insanely powerful, providing free Barrier Break and Makara Break at the start of turn without consuming Press Turns. God's Malice is very good to lock down a single target with multiple Ailments. Infinite Chakra helps to reduce MP requirements, allowing him to spam God's Malice. Mana Aid is a great transfer skill.
Cons	Weak to Elec Countered very hard by Daisoujou clearing his ailments and punishing him for using Charm. Middling AGI hurts battle speed for fast Ailment teams.
Notes	Great set of Panels that provide additional Ailment Infliction, reduce MP costs and the aforementioned breaks. Easy 4x4 fusion paths make him a good P3 goal to strive toward. Compared to Nergal, Panel 3 Samael gives you better Press Turn efficiency, but in return all your other demons will require some degree of Ailment Infliction from brands or transfers. Weigh the extra Press Turn versus stat flexibility carefully. Panel 3 pairs well with Alice A and Nebiros teams, allowing them to land Curse without worrying about Barriers. He also negates Xi Wangmu's Panel 2, as he will continuously break her recasted Barriers each turn.
