*As [[Angra Mainyu]] is a Tyrant, he can be run in [[Lucifuge]] teams. Red in particular gives him access to discounted [[Megidolaon]], which is further discounted thanks to [[Hell's Ministry]] and Lucifuge's Panel 1. In return, the ailments from [[16 Scourges]] allow [[Lucifer]] to run double Deadly skills (like [[Deadly Poison]] and [[Deadly Mute]]), which will greatly amplify [[Morning Star]]'s damage.

Pros
  • Everything Evil is an incredibly powerful passive that gives your whole team 3 MP at the beginning of the turn. Not only does this counter the MP Drain from Alice A's Give me Jewels, it also allows your team to run Spell/War brands instead of Divine for more damage.
  • 16 Scourges chips off 25% of Max HP from the opposing team and inflicts them with every single ailment in the game. The chip damage helps your main sweeper to clean up, while the Ailments can be used to set up for demons like Alice A and Pale Rider.
  • When used with Atavaka or Alilat, innate Repel Elec helps to soft-counter Atropos, as the second part of Passionate Rage will not proc if the first Elec part is Anti-Pierced.
  • Thanks to his High Luck and Infernal Mask in Purple, he can be run as a Pseudo Cleric if Prayer is transferred (preferably with another Ailment Resist passive like Epitome of Illusion).
  • Panel 2 provides a single turn Luster Candy in addition to the 2 MP, making it even easier for your team to sweep.
Cons
  • Weak to Light unless Teal.
  • Not very useful for PvE as his passive has limited uses, and Ailments generally fall flat late game due to inflated enemy stats.
  • He doesn't have any form of Barrier Break in his kit, meaning someone else with it has to go before him, or else his ailments won't stick.
  • 16 Scourges deals fractional damage, which doesn't scale from MATK, meaning that his high Magic stat is wasted without transferred skills.
  • Demeter essentially removed him from pvp, doing a better job as an MP battery while simultaneously preventing him from using ailments, while negating his fractional damage with bulwarks.
Notes
  • Be very wary of any enemy Daisoujou, as he will respond with a Mute Counter the moment you fire off 16 Scourges. This can severely mess you up if your sweepers end up getting Muted.

Unkillable Cockroach
ArchTeal.png Transferred Skills Notes:

For the more sadistic team builds. Dodge + Evade is annoying to no end. You can also go for a more HP tank build and replace Evade with Epitome of Fortitude and Dodge for Ward to protect him from ailments.
