Tier List Beta

Overview

• This is the beta page for proposed tier list overhaul

Rating

• The PVP Tier List compares demons in their Panel 3 form, with their skills leveled up, with good brands, and assumes the best transfer skills.
  • However a Tier List comparing demons solely in their Panel 0/1/2 forms would not be largely different from this one.
• Treat cons as more of a "cautionary note", like "beware of these problems when running this demon" and not "this problem drops this demon by X score".

• PVP ratings are defined as such
  • Tier 5: These demons are a central force in the current Metagame.
  • Tier 4: These demons have a more niche role but can still thrive very well with proper support in the current Meta.
  • Tier 3: These demons are not very popular or only work in very specific teams, requiring a lot of support.
  • Tier 2: These demons do not work well outside low-rank PVP (Gold 1 and below).
  • Tier 1: These demons are ill-suited for PVP, regardless of rank.

• PVE ratings are defined as such
  • Tier 5: These demons can work for all PVE content (story, AG, Kiwami, BoS etc)
  • Tier 4: These demons are less universal but can trivialize specific PVE content.
  • Tier 3: These demons can be used for most early-mid game content, but tend to fall-off at higher difficulties.
  • Tier 2: These demons do not contribute much outside early-game PVE.
  • Tier 1: These demons are ill-suited for PVE.

5 star Tier List

Name	Best Archetype(s)		PVE	PVP
	PVE	PVP		Offense	Defense
Alice			4	4	4	-	-
Pros	Very powerful in PVP as Die for Me! bypasses Endure-type skills and Instant Kills a demon allowing her to swiftly delete key threats. Godly Panels, especially Panel 3, as this allow her to spam Die for Me!: this makes her Top Tier. High damage potential due to good stats and Dark Amp in Purple. Can be used to in most PVE content like Aura Gate, Brands of Sin (especially Vanity 11) and certain Kiwami. She's cute!!
Cons	Needs Dark Pierce (weak) and Panel 3 to really shine, without those her PVP rating would be around 7. Needs to run Divines without Panel 2 for first turn Die for Me!.
Notes	She has pretty bad AI (will sometimes Mamudoon instead of spamming DFM), keep this in mind when using her for Defense.
Alice A			5	5	5	-	-
Pros	The only demon in the game with AOE Mortal. When paired with curse support like Nebiros, she can easily decimate entire teams without Null Curse and/or Null Mortal. Drains 1 MP from the enemy at the start of their turn, which stops MANY T1 sweepers (eg Baal, Anat, Uriel) in their tracks. Trivializes almost all PVE content like Aura Gate and Hell's Park - pair her with an AOE curse inflictor and instakill everyone! Purple gains Null Mortal which prevents her from being killed by other Mortal users. She's cute!!
Cons	Hard countered by Null Curse and Null Mortal. Weak to light and by extension the Archangels matchup. Teal fixes this somewhat but you lose Null Mortal in return. Cannot be used in the same team with OG Alice.
Notes	-
Alilat			4	3	3	-	-
Pros	While alive, Repel Pierce will prevent pierce skills from going through Repel resistances. Pair her with demons with a lot of Repels (like Asura Lord or Vairocana) or with Repel Phys (like Teal Gogmagog and Teal Quetzalcoatl). Very high LUK stat allows her to be built as an Ailment caster by transfering an Ailment skill. Thanks to stats and passives, she has extreme Ailment resistance: transfer her Silent Prayer or Prayer, she will be an Ailment cleanser. A near Must-Have demon for PVE, particularly Aura Gate 2, as Repel Pierce paired with appropriate demons is perfect for cheesing most Boss fights. Good HP and Vit stats and no weaknesses give her a lot of bulk. Very cheap to fuse.
Cons	Megidola is a wasted skill as her Magic stat is low. Lack of offensive demons with Repel Phys makes it hard to craft teams around her in PVP.
Notes	-
Amaterasu			4	2	2	-	-
Pros	One of the best PVE support demons in the game. Tenson Kourin is the best buff spell in the game, guaranteeing you will have all 3 buffs at the end of cast. Gains access to discounted Mediarahan in Yellow, which heals for a lot thanks to her high magic stat.
Cons	High MP cost Elec Weakness Panels are very lackluster. Maragion is a wasted slot for support builds. Healing is less important in PvP, reducing her potential there.
Notes	-
Ananta			1	3	3	-	-
Pros	Purple provides all 3 Auto-Buffs, which is incredibly strong Reasonable bulky with 3 Nulls makes him a decent support demon. Works well in slow double Intimidating Stance Teams, and can be left at level 1 to lower battle speed if used as a pure buff bot.
Cons	Force weakness and no attack skills Buffs disappear after a wave is cleared in PvE, so Auto-Skills arent as valuable there. Relies heavily on transfer skills to function well. Unfortunately most good transfer skills are Gacha-only.
Notes	-
Anat			4	5	4	-	-
Pros	Thunderstorm is an extremely powerful piercing AOE. High MAG stat, passive skills and Panels further her AOE DPS. Killer Impulse may add another layer of damage. Red gives Thunder Reign which can circumvent Elec Anti-Pierce such as Rama + Mother Harlot. Note that it does not pierce though!
Cons	Force weakness Panel 2 is Mandatory for Turn 1 Thunderstorm. Expensive to fuse and only available in clear. Colored variants are Gacha exclusive. Only Thunderstorm and Killer Impulse have pierce. Requires additional MP Support when going against Alice A teams
Notes	-
Asherah			3	4	4	-	-
Pros	Mother's Creation is the best Resurrection spell; Press Turn Generation is really strong. Silent Prayer in Yellow allows her to be used as an Ailment cleanser if skills such as Null Charm, Null Bind etc. are transferred. Her bulk can tank through the deadliest PVP teams and turn the tables with Mother's Creation. Innate Mediarama and Recovery Amp in Purple: good PVE healer.
Cons	Two weaknesses to common attacking elements. Low AGI means she will need Lead Brands or even slower teammates to work as a Ailment cleanser. Resurrection is not useful in PVE as your demons are not supposed to die. Healing is also subpar in PVE.
Notes	-
Asura			4	2	2	-	-
Pros	High STR and Ashura are devastating against lone targets like Bosses. This makes him a very strong Phys Democalypse unit. Three Faces Six Arms and his good innate bulk are the perfect counter to skills like Fire of Sinai and Griffon-Bolts. Mana Aid is fantastic for PVE farming as it lets him spam Ashura. Single-handedly trivializes Brands of Sin Deceit 11. Repel Phys in Teal and high VIT make him a good partner for Alilat and Atavaka.
Cons	As nothing in his kit provides damage, damage booster transfers are mandatory. His only Piercing attack being Random Target makes him near unusable in PvP. Using Ashura against Masakado means your death.
Notes	-
Asura Lord			4	4	5	-	-
Pros	Very high ST damage that also generates press turns thanks to his high Crit Rate. Slaughter All is fully unblockable and ignores Endure-type skills, allowing you to delete key demons in PVP. Endless War passively increases Crit Rate and Crit Damage of the team. Paired with Kartikeya, the total is +40% Crit Rate. Very good synergy with Hero Masakado T1, an excellent Defense Team for PVP. Gigantomachia in Red and his innate passives makes him an excellent PVE sweeper. Good repel resistances makes him a natural partner for Alilat or Atavaka. Fire and Light repel perfectly counter Archangels teams.
Cons	Hard to raise Slaughter All's damage further as it is of the Almighty element. High MP cost mandates the use of Divine Brands, if not P2, this reduces his damage output. Risky to use for PVP Random Battle as he is suboptimal in Slow or Midrange teams and may put you in a difficult position in Fast teams whenever he fails to crit.
Notes	-
Atavaka			4	4	5	-	-
Pros	While alive, War Aid will prevent pierce skills from going through Repel resistances. Pair him with multiple-Repels Demons (like Asura Lord or Vairocana) or with Phys Repel (like Teal Gogmagog). Intimidating Stance is a very powerful passive for PVP and synergizes with his low AGI. Enemy Annihilation fully debuffs enemies before chaining into a piercing physical AOE sweep. Because the AOE is a chain effect, you will not lose press turns even if it misses and/or hits into Physical NDR, allowing him to spam it without concern. Amazing set of panels that provide him extra damage. Like Alilat, his Repel Pierce ability is perfect for cheesing Aura Gate 2 Boss fights.
Cons	Very high MP costs. And compensating with Divine Brands hurts his damage/Bulk. Weak to Ice. A common element in PVP especially in very Offensive Teams. Does not have natural Pierce. This can cause issues with his PVP AI attacking into Tetra Shift and/or Physical NDR when out of MP. The fact the debuff from Enemy Annihilation only lasts 1 turn with high MP-cost makes him unsuitable as a debuffer in PVE unless Panel 2.
Notes	-
Baal			4	5	4	-	-
Pros	Tempest deals high piercing AOE damage and autocasts Sukunda. Rains of Canaan provides a teamwide Force damage boost. Good synergy with other Force sweepers like Susano-o and Garuda A Red gives Killing Wind which circumvent Force Anti-Pierce such as Rama + Susano-o A. Note that it does not pierce though!
Cons	Ice weakness Without Panel 2, his PVP tier rating is lower than 8. Expensive to fuse and only available in clear. Colored variants are Gacha exclusive. Only has pierce through Tempest. Requires additional MP Support when going against Alice A teams
Notes	-
Barong		Any	4	2	2	-	-
Pros	Barong Dance is a healing skill with infinite uses which is useful for drawn out battles in PvE while buffing the team. If Panel 1 + max lvl, it can be cast Turn 1 PvP or spammed in PvE. Niche use in Aura Gate as giving him Support AI with his MAtk low enough guarantees he'll heal you with Barong Dance no matter your HP. This is useful to recover HP lost from Talk and in F50 of Aura Gate 2 where you meet the Self Destruct Forneuses.
Cons	2 weaknesses if not in Teal archetype. Low Magic and Bulk is inconvenient as a healer/support. PvP is too fast for healings that are not passives to be useful.
Notes	-
Bayonetta☆		Any	2	2	2	-	-
Pros	Madama Stomp levels and Savage Glee in purple give her enormous crit rates. Madama Stomp autocasts an Almighty attack that also charms whenever she lands a crit. Deals decent damage after being buffed to scale off her PATK. Recent buffs have made her a lot more viable. Panel 2 in particular gives her Pierce which she desperately needs. Gomorrah (B) has high base damage and crit chance, letting you delete an enemy and charm the rest of the team.
Cons	Gomorrah (B) takes two turns to charge: impossible to use T1. Difficult to build due to Gomorrah (B) scaling off both PATK and MATK. Mediocre overall stats, bad bulk. Absolutely requires at least P2 to have any relevancy in PVP: get a PVP rating much lower than 6 if not paneled. No longer meme :(
Notes	-
Belial			4	3	3	-	-
Pros	Flames of Gomorrah is a hard hitting fire phys skill that pierces, crits and can be cast T1 even with War brands. Fire Amp in Purple makes it even deadlier. Sins of Sodom provides Fast-Debilitate if an enemy is cursed which pairs perfectly with the 80% curse-rate of Flames of Gomorrah. He pairs well with Nebiros who can curse before your turn. PvE enemies including Bosses are not immune to curse, making him an insane PvE Debuffer. Panel 2 allows him to Crit indefinitely.
Cons	Lack of ST gives him trouble with Fire Anti-Pierce like Atavaka-Vairocana or Rama-Surt. Ice weakness.
Notes	-
Black Frost	Any	Any	3	2	2	-	-
Pros	High Magic stat and innate Pierce on Go to Hell! makes him a good magic sweeper. Curse of Anguish and Panels pair well with Yama who automatically curses everyone at the start of the Boss wave. Go to Hell! has a high Curse chance, which lets him setup for other curse-based sweepers like Alice A. Yellow gains access to Concentrate to further increase his sweeping potential. His innate Mabufudyne and Ice Amp (in Purple) is excellent for Democalypse.
Cons	Light Weakness Go to Hell! has low base power and does not gain damage on level up. His damage output is below average and needs his Curse gimmick. Dark element AOEs are severely countered by the PVP Meta (Masakado + Rama or Atavaka + Hecate)
Notes	-
Black Rider			2	3	3	-	-
Pros	Soul Divide punishes healing by dealing Fractional damage based on their current health. Useful in Brands of Sin Vanity stages where healing is abundant. Famine deals fractional damage and saps MP at the end of enemies turn. Best used to deal with enemies that have auto-healing such as P2 Vishnu. Decent Magic stat and good Panels can make him a strong Ice mage.
Cons	Soul Divide damage is based on Current Health and cannot kill targets. Healing is not very common rendering his utility niche at best. Needs Panels (especially P2) to be an effective Mage.
Notes	-
Cu Chulainn			3	2	2	-	-
Pros	One of the budget pierce sweeper, he can be fused cheaply through 4x4 fusions. One of the best demons to fuse early: trivializes early PVE. Panels maintain his relevance late game. He's cheap to Panel. Innate Savage Glee and powerful Gae Bolg mean you can build him as a Phys attacker and he will be good for Phys Democalypse. Low AGI makes him useable in Intimidating Stance teams.
Cons	High MP costs, cannot sweep Turn 1 in PVP unless Panel 3. Purple Archetype mandatory for PVP as he needs Force Pierce. Mediocre Magic stat: needs passives to be transferred for decent damage. No Single-Target attack: he will have trouble against Anti-Force-Pierce like Rama + Susano-o A, popular in PVP.
Notes	-
Cu Chulainn A			4	4	4	-	-
Pros	Has full pierce on two elements. Barbed Spear deals three separate hits, allowing it to function as an Endure breaker. He is a good candidate for Hero Masakado T1 Auto-Charge at end of turn allows him to deal massive damage if he is not taken out. Teal has Drain Phys to pair with Rama in Drain Teams, increasing his survivability which is needed if you want to use Auto-Charge.
Cons	Needs to survive an entire round to make use of Auto-Charge. Missing just one of Barbed Spear's 12 hits results in lost press turns. Requires damage booster transfers kit provides none. Auto-Charge does not activate when waves are cleared in PVE! This reduces his damage potential in auto-farming PVE greatly!
Notes	-
Cybele			3	2	2	-	-
Pros	High Magic stat. Magna Mater and innate Trisagion + Maragidyne make her an extremely good Fire caster. Excellent Panel 1. Magna Mater provides a team-wide Fire damage boost, incredible for Democalypse. Innate Merciless Blow further increases her Democalypse potential.
Cons	Heavy fire specialisation + lack of Fire Pierce means she will struggle against Fire NDR. In PVP, Fire Pierce (weak) is insufficient due to the popularity of Asherah and Rama Expensive multi-fusion that requires clear Asherah.
Notes	-
Daisoujou	Any		5	5	5	-	-
Pros	Preach makes him immune to all ailments and will punish enemy teams attempting to use Charm. Cleansing Shout is an Ailment and Debuff Cleanse packed into one skill. This makes him the best Counter to Ailments. Particularly good against the high Tier Alice A Defense Teams. Good stats, no weaknesses and perfect base kit allow freedom in builds. Can work as a bulky tank, evasion tank, healer and/or revive support based on build. Very useful for Brands of Sin Sloth 11 auto-runs.
Cons	Is a hard support unit, relies on transfer skills to offer anything outside cleanse.
Notes	-
Dante☆	Any		2	2	2	-	-
Pros	High Str plus Auto-Rebellion from Rapid Shot makes him a good Phys Sweeper. Very bulky with no weaknesses. Million Stab is a multihit AOE skill, breaking Endures and piercing while in Might. Pairs well with Hell Biker for free Rebellion setup.
Cons	Low AGI and LUK affects his accuracy. Will not autocast Rebellion if any of his Rapid Shot misses. Million Stab is high MP-cost and need difficult setup to Pierce. This is bad in PVP to the point it's probably better to use Megaton Raid and a transferred Hades Blast in a Hell Gongen Teams than playing him as it was intended with Rapid Shot and Million Stab.
Notes	-
Fafnir			1	1	1	-	-
Pros	Innate Drain Phys makes him usable in Drain Teams. Dragon Sense provides him additional accuracy and evasion. Golden Greed highly increases poison damage, making him a very good against Celestial Gui Xian.
Cons	In PvP Drain Teams, can at most be a mediocre support. 2 Weaknesses. Ailments fall flat in late PvE because of inflated enemy stats. Hard countered by Ailment Cleansers like Daisoujou in PVP. Comprehensively outclassed by Pale Rider as Poison caster.
Notes	-
Frost Ace			3	3	3	-	-
Pros	Very good Ice Nuker with built-in Ice Boost and Master Assassin in purple. Good Ice sweeper with Mabufula in red Vengeful Frost Fist is a heavy hitting Ice-element Physical attack that can Crit and autocasts Rebellion on hit. This allows him to crit infinitely at the cost of a measly 4 MP. Icy Rage provides a teamwide Ice damage buff, incredible for Democalypse.
Cons	No added accuracy in his kit. Requires Accuracy investment as Vengeful Frost Fist is prone to missing. Vengeful Frost Fist cannot hit through Tetrakarn nor any Ice NDR without P3 or Ice Pierce (weak). Without Panel 3, his PVP rating would be worth only 5 or less.
Notes	-
Gabriel			4	4	4	-	-
Pros	When combined with two other Herald or Divine demons, God's Word dishes out massive damage even before battle really begins. Chain effects do not consume press turns even when hitting NDR. Innate Pierce with decent Magic + Revive makes for a good unique Skill. Part of a very strong PVP strategy: Archangels Team. Good for PVE content like Brands of Sin Sloth, the general story and Aura Gate (note that her passive will kill demons before they have a chance to talk)
Cons	Needs a specific team built fully around her. Reflected God's Word will damage her because of innate pierce. Beware of Alilat and Atavaka. The Metagame is filled with teams tanky enough to survive Archangels teams. Requires additional MP Support when going against Alice A teams
Notes	-
Garuda	Any		4	3	3	-	-
Pros	One of the fastest and most flexible demons in the game. Good set of resistances plus battlespeed makes him useful for most PVE content including Aura Gate and Brands of Sin Vanity 11. Auto-Rakunda: excellent offensive skill for Turn 1 Teams. Vahana, excellent defensive passive. Allows dodge-tank builds or even cleric ones if Prayer is transferred. Red gives 6-MP Maragidyne, allowing him a Turn 1 nuke. Yellow makes him more support-oriented with Fog Breath.
Cons	Doesn't have innate Speedster: you must use a transfer slot for it. Very low bulk and has an Ice weakness. Is outclassed by Hresvelgr in PVP Turn 1 Teams.
Notes	-
Garuda A			3	4	4	-	-
Pros	Good Magic and Agi Stats Innate Force pierce in Brilliant Wings and discount Mazandyne in Red. Brilliant Wings fits well in an evasion based team together with Nekomata A. Gale Talon is very damaging against lone targets like Bosses, making him very potent for Democalypse.
Cons	Needs a team built around him to be really effective Useless against Magic teams Gale Talon takes time to reach full potential, reducing his T1 potential.
Notes	-
Gogmagog			4	3	3	-	-
Pros	Very high bulk and innate Earthquake lets him hit hard off that bulk. Three weaknesses makes him a good partner for Orcus. Less competition for Brands compared to your other demons, as he relies on PDEF for damage. Panels let him play a more support-oriented role, providing team-wide bonuses as long as he is alive. Crit resistance is especially valuable in the current PVP meta, which has heavy crit emphasis. Repel Phys in Teal pairs well with Alilat or Atavaka as an Anti-Pierce.
Cons	Abysmal AGI means he misses. A lot. Added damage from Weakness can be too much for his passive heal. No innate pierce and is a bad choice for Hell Gongen due to his AGI.
Notes	-
Guan Yu			5	5	5	-	-
Pros	No weaknesses and high VIT stats make him very tanky, especially with Life Brands. High STR and native Phys Pierce make him a physical powerhouse. Loyal God of War refunds MP and heals him on a kill, giving him insane amounts of self-sustain. Innate Savage Glee lets him Crit and generate Press Turns effectively, especially if given Epitome of Carnage or paired with Crit boosters like Asura Lord or Kartikeya. Null Mortal in Purple, Drain Phys for pairing with Rama in Teal, Red for pure PvE.
Cons	Low Agi stat means he will have accuracy issues. Dragon Blade's chain effect will not activate if it misses on the first target. Highly dependant on the first kill for tempo. Failing to secure the first kill will result in him not having enough MP for the next turn. Only has ST skills unless in Red, which reduces his overall PvP usefulness
Notes	-
Guts			5	5	5	-	-
Pros	Very high Crit rate thanks to Savage Glee and The Struggler. Dragon Slayer does insane AOE Piercing Physical damage and bypasses Endure-type skills. It can also be cast Turn 1 due to its low MP cost. Butcher in purple further augments his damage. Excellent set of Panels that give him access to a Piercing Fire AOE chain, Phys Pierce and more damage.
Cons	Having no innate ST skills means he will be walled by Drain Teams. It is recommended to pair him with demons like Alice to eliminate Phys Anti-Pierce demons that prevent him from sweeping. No natural Pierce outside P2 might cause issues when out of MP.
Notes	-
Hecate			4	5	4	-	-
Pros	Hell's Trivia is a cheap, hard-hitting spell that also functions as an Endure breaker. Coupled with her respectable Mag stat and Dark Enhancement in purple, she can be built as a powerful dark mage. Null Bind and Lunar Awakening make her immune to ailments. Transferring Prayer or Silent Prayer makes her a cleanser with offensive ability. Innate Repel Dark means she can't be sniped by Alice if paired with Alilat or Atavaka. This hard-counters people who use Ailment Teams for Random PVP Battles. Amazing Panels: with P2 you don't worry about running out of MP.
Cons	Not very bulky. Light weakness is bad against Archangels. Lunar Awakening only triggers at the end of the enemy's turn. This makes her useless for Brands of Sin Sloth 11, as the ailments trigger at the beginning of the turn.
Notes	-
Hresvelgr			4	5	5	-	-
Pros	Highest Base AGI and +20% to his Battle Speed on Panel 3: invaluable for fast teams. His unique North Wind deals AOE Ice damage whenever an opposing demon dies. This adds to the damage of fast Turn 1 teams and allows him to clear Endures. Auto-Rakunda in Purple further increases Turn 1 kill potential. Good MAG and innate Ice Boost let him fire strong Bufudyne. One of the best Demon to have for Aura Gates farming.
Cons	No ice pierce. No innate Speedster. You MUST transfer it to him. 2 weaknesses. Phys weakness is particularly bad.
Notes	-
Huang Di			4	2	3	-	-
Pros	Superior Power gives him Phys Pierce and an accuracy boost. Yinglong Killer hits incredibly hard and has a high crit rate, demolishing teams without anti-Pierce. Extremely good PvE demon especially if Paneled.
Cons	Pretty much outclassed by Guts. Needs to rely on transfer skills to increase his damage. Lack of ST skills unless Red. AI is very unreliable for PvP Defense; will occasionally Yinglong Killer into Anti-Pierce and lose press turns. Middling AGI, low bulk and his only excellent attack being 7MP mean he can't fit in well-built PvP Teams.
Notes	-
Huang Long			4	2	2	-	-
Pros	High AGI means that combined with Speedster he can greatly boost your battle speed. Five Elements walls magical demons without Pierce, such as Mother Harlot, Masakado A and non-purple Rama. Luster Candy in Yellow gives him even more support utility in buff control. Trivializes Brands of Sin stage 10, opening up brand farming on Auto.
Cons	Pierce destroys him through Five Elements. Five Elements can be removed through Makara Break especially P3 Samael. Yellow AI has issues on auto as it will sometimes cast Luster Candy when you want to be spamming Five Elements instead. Very MP hungry, needs Divine Brands or Mana Aid to function well. Panels are lackluster.
Notes	-
Indrajit			3	4	4	-	-
Pros	High Magic and good Agi Stats High Burst Damage in Lightning Shower, which refunds MP on kill allowing him to loop it again. Casts Five Elements on kill, which completely walls off Almighty attackers like Mother Harlot. Maxed Lightning Shower lets him use Spell Brands and still cast it Turn 1 in PvP
Cons	Highly dependant on the first kill for tempo. Failing to kill will result in MP Problems. AI tries to hit Tanks he can't one-shot: bad for Defense PVP. Ice Weakness (Sort of mitigated by Five Elements on kill, but beware pierce users as well as being outsped).
Notes	-
Ishtar			2	2	2	-	-
Pros	Extremely high magic, combined with her Panels, compensates her lack of high damage attacks. Her unique spell Mesopotamian Star deals Almighty damage while autocasting Tarukaja and Tarunda. At Panel 3, this further applies Rakukaja and Sukukaja. Gains Concentrate in Yellow, letting her nuke even harder. Easy 4x4 fusion paths and good panels.
Cons	Very high MP costs. Mesopotamian Star has low base power. 2 weaknesses. Low AGI stat and bad bulk.
Notes	-
Ixtab	Any		1	3	3	-	-
Pros	Yaxche autocast is almighty Mortal and ignores Endure-type skills. You can leave her at Lv 1 to bait the AI into killing her and trigger Yaxche. Use teammates with Revive to repeat this cycle. Nidhoggr is perfect for this. At Lv 1, she works well in Intimidating Stance Teams as she'd lower Battle Speed. Yellow gives her a good Ailment skill to spam.
Cons	Five Elements and Null Mortal blocks Yaxche, shutting her down. Most important targets in PvE are immune to Mortal (Bosses, Kiwami Adds etc.) There is no way to reset her lv at 1 if you mistakenly lvled her up.
Notes	-
Izanami			3	3	3
Pros	Very high Magic stat combined with innate Merciless Blow, her unique Yomotsu Okami and Elec Amp in purple, she will decimate anything weak to Elec, making her perfect for Democalypse. Yomotsu Okami provides a teamwide increase to Dark and Elec damage, making her Top Tier for these 2 Democalypses. Hell Gaze in Red is perfect for Dark Democalypse. Great set of panels that provide her MP reduction, Elec Pierce and increased damage. Near mandatory for auto-farming Aura Gate 2 Floor 50.
Cons	In PVP, she badly needs the Elec Pierce ability from Panel 2. Without Panel 2, her PVP ratings would be 5 or less. Very expensive to fuse Has no true ST or AOE spells.
Jeanne☆			2	2	2
Pros	Madama Uppercut autocasts a follow-up Almighty attack upon Charm that also inflicts Bind. Evade and Madama Uppercut levels increase her evasion and allow her to function as a dodge tank. Gomorrah (J) has high base damage and crit chance, with a high chance to Bind all enemies. Pairs well with Bayonetta or any other sources of charm like Lakshmi.
Cons	Gomorrah (J) takes two turns to charge, making T1 shenanigans impossible. Awkward combination of balanced stats and having both Physical and Magic skills make her pretty mediocre at everything. Very bad bulk means she will get shredded by Magic teams, which ignore her evasion. Pretty much outclassed by P3 Lilith, who does "Bind upon Charm" better. Panels do not benefit her much.
Kali			4	3	3
Pros	Violent Dance deals incredible burst damage to a single target and can be cast T1 even with War Brands (or with Divines if wary of Alice A). Can reliably crit for press turns thanks to Violent Dance putting her in a state of Rebellion. Gains Phys Amp in Purple turning her into a true Goddess of Slaughter. Panel 2 provides an MP refund, allowing her to spam Violent Dance. Red gives her access to discounted Hades Blast, giving her an AOE skill for PVE.
Cons	Requires a state of Rebellion to reach full potential. This mandates either one turn of warm up, or an Auto-Rebellion transfer. Loses turns if she misses even 1 of 6 Violent Dance hits. Weak to Ice.
Kartikeya			5	5	4
Pros	Fastest demon in the game especially when passive is maxed, allowing you to hit battlespeed requirements in PVE easily. Skanda proides teamwide Accuracy and Crit chance boost. Mortal Jihad plus Great Aim means he will rarely miss, while having a good crit rate to generate press turns for your team. No weaknesses and innate Speedster gives him great flexibility over transfer slots and lets him fulfill a variety of roles. Important demon in the Hero Masakado T1 strategy, one of the strongest strategy.
Cons	No innate pierce means he will have trouble with Tetra Shift, unless you inherit Phys Pierce (weak). Very expensive to fuse and panel.
Lakshmi	Any		2	3	3
Pros	Extremely high Magic and Luck stats allow her to be built as either a Sweeper or an Ailment inflictor. Her High Luck, Insanity combined with Lotus Dance's high Charm rate virtually guarantees she will Charm everything that does not Null it. Panel 3 allows her to generate MP for the team, enabling certain first-turn kill strats like Shiva A, or counter MP drain teams like Alice A.
Cons	Force weakness Lack of good innate offensive skills wastes her sweeper potential. Countered very hard by Daisoujou clearing her charms and punishing her for using them. Very bad bulk
Lakshmi A			4	4	4
Pros	Diwali restores MP to the whole team upon receiving any healing from skills. This includes her own Virtuous Prosperity, passive healing from Hecate/Guan Yu/Raphael and drain-type skills such as Light Devourer. The MP restoration aspect is very powerful in the current PVP meta as a counter to Alice A's passive MP Drain. One of the best healers thanks to innate Recovery Amp and Virtuous Prosperity. At max boost level, Virtuous Prosperity confers Five Elements as well as Null Mortal, making it a powerful support skill for both PVE and PVP. Yellow grants discounted Defensive Cry, a powerful defensive skill for PVE.
Cons	In Yellow, AI prioritizes Defensive Cry which does not trigger Diwali. Force weakness and mediocre bulk hurt her longevity.
