- |
- |
| Pros |
- Die for Me! inflicts Mortal (instant kill) and bypasses Endure-type skills, making her incredibly valuable in deleting key demons for PVP.
- High MAG stat combined with Dark Amp in purple makes her a very powerful Dark Mage.
- Incredible panels that give her damage amplification, MP cost reduction and increased uses of her signature unique skill.
- She's cute!!
|
| Cons |
- Needs Dark Pierce (weak) and Panel 3 to really shine.
- Needs to run Divines without Panel 2 for first turn Die for Me! and to mitigate long term MP issues.
- Weak to Light and by extension the Archangels matchup. Teal fixes this somewhat but you Dark Amp in return.
|
| Notes |
- She has pretty bad AI (will sometimes Mamudoon instead of spamming DFM), keep this in mind when using her for Defense.
- Mortal is lot less powerful against Xi Wangmu teams, as she will simply resurrect the Mortal-ed target and is immune to Mortal herself.
|

 Alice A

|

- |
- |
| 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.
|
| Notes |
- Cannot be used in the same team with OG Alice.

- |
- |
| Pros |
- While alive, Repel Pierce will prevent pierce skills from going through Repel resistances. This is very useful when combined with demons that have high natural Repels (like Asura Lord or Vairocana) or against popular attack elements like Physical (example Teal Gogmagog).
- Very high LUK stat allows her to be used as both an Ailment inflictor and a cleanser (especially with innate Infernal Mask and P1).
- 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.
|
| Notes |
- One of only three demons that can negate pierce, and the only fuseable source. A near Must-Have demon for PVE, as Repel Pierce paired with appropriate demons is perfect for cheesing most Boss fights.

 Amaterasu

- |
- |
| 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 |
- Maragion is a wasted slot for support builds.
- High MP cost
- Weak to Elec
|
| Notes |
- Panels are very lackluster.
- Healing is less important in PvP, reducing her potential there.

 Ananta

3 |
- |
- |
| Pros |
- Purple provides all 3 Auto-Buffs, which is incredibly strong
- Reasonable bulky with 3 Nulls makes him a decent support demon. War Cry or Recarmdra can be transferred to increase his support potential.
- Works well in slow double Intimidating Stance teams, and can be deliberately left at level 1 to lower battle speed if used as a pure buff bot.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Force
- Buffs disappear after a wave is cleared in PvE, so Auto-Skills aren't as valuable there.
- Relies heavily on transfer skills to function well. Unfortunately most good transfer skills are Gacha-only.

| Pros |

- Weak to Force
- 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.
|
| Notes |
- Requires additional MP Support when going against Alice A teams
- Red gives her discounted Thunder Reign which can be used against Elec Anti-Pierce such as Rama + Mother Harlot. Note that it does not pierce though!

| Pros |

- |
- |
| Pros |
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Ice
- As nothing in his kit boosts damage, damage booster transfers are mandatory.
|
| Notes |
- His only Piercing attack being Random Target makes him near unusable in PvP. Using Ashura against Masakado means your death.
|
|
 Asura Lord
|
|
|
4 |
4 |
5 |
- |
- |
| Pros |
- Incredibly high ST damage that also generates press turns thanks to his high Crit Rate.
- Passively increases your team's Crit Rate and Crit Damage through Endless War. Pairs very well with Kartikeya, as their combined passives will give your team a whopping +40% boost to Crit Rate.
- Slaughter All is fully unblockable and ignores Endure-type skills, allowing you to delete any demon he claps. It is also very useful to clean up any remaining enemies (usually bosses) after your AOE demons have unleashed their payload, notably D11 Metatron.
- Red gives him a powerful AOE in Gigantomachia. Combined with his innate Great Aim and pierce in Endless War, this makes him a terrifying sweeper.
- Good repel resistances makes him a natural partner for Alilat or Atavaka. Fire and Light repel is especially useful to counter Archangel teams, as it makes him immune to both their AOE elements.
|
| 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 Panel 2 is not unlocked, which can slightly reduce his damage potential.
- Middling AGI makes him slightly awkward to fit in fast or slow teams.

- |
- |
| Pros |
- While alive, War Aid will prevent pierce skills from going through Repel resistances. This is very useful when combined with demons that have high natural Repels (like Asura Lord or Vairocana) or against popular attack elements like Physical (example 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.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Ice.
- Very high MP costs. Running Divine sets hurt his overall damage and/or Bulk.
- Does not have natural Pierce. This can cause issues with his AI attacking into Tetra Shift and/or Physical NDR when out of MP.
|
| Notes |
- One of only three demons that can negate pierce. He is also the only one with Intimidating Stance.

 Barong

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Barong Dance provides a decent AOE heal while giving the party a full Luster Candy buff. It also has infinite uses and can be reduced to a mere 5 MP when maxed with Panel 1 unlocked.
- Very high AGI allows him to be used as a fast support, especially with Speedster transferred for Battle Speed requirements.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Force and Dark.
- Low MAG stat means he won't heal for much.
- Elec attack spells (and Elec Amp in purple) are wasted slots considering his bad Magic stat.
|
| Notes |
- 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/or enemy encounters.

 Bayonetta☆

- |
- |
| 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.
- Gomorrah (B) has high base damage and crit chance, letting you delete an enemy and charm the rest of the team.
|
| Cons |
- Highly dependant on having Panel 2 unlocked for Phys Pierce.
- Gomorrah (B) takes two turns to charge, and is difficult to build due to it scaling off both PATK and MATK.
- Mediocre overall stats, bad bulk.
|
| Notes |
- No longer meme :(
- Limited-time Collaboration unit. Nobody knows if she will be rerun.

- |
- |
| 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, or Nebiros who can curse before your turn.
- Panel 2 allows him to Crit indefinitely.
|
| Cons |
|
| Notes |
- Many PvE enemies including certain Bosses are not immune to curse, making him an insane Debuffer for PvE.
|

 Black Frost

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.
- Innate Mabufudyne and Ice Amp in Purple lets him function as an excellent Ice Sweeper too, especially for Democalypse.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Light
- 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)
|

 Black Rider

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.
- Soul Divide also punishes passive healing such as Guan Yu's Loyal God of War and Hecate's Lunar Awakening.
- Famine deals fractional damage to all enemies and saps 2 MP at the end of their turn. Pairs well with Alice A for a devastating MP denial comp.
- Decent Magic stat and good Panels can make him a strong Ice mage.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Fire
- Soul Divide damage is based on Current Health and cannot kill targets.
- High AGI makes him awkward to slot in slow teams, despite the great synergy with Alice A.

 Cu Chulainn
|
|
|

2 |
2 |
- |
- |
| Pros |
- One of the best demons to fuse early on. He has access to Force Pierce, passable MAG stats and can be easily fused through 4x4 fusions.
- No weaknesses is a lifesaver early on and gives him more flexibility in transfer skills.
- While not common, he can be run as a physical demon to some degree. He has innate Savage Glee and Gae Bolg hits hard against bosses (especially after Panel 1), making him an acceptable option for Phys Democalypse.
|
| Cons |
- High MP costs, cannot Mazandyne Turn 1 in PVP unless Panel 3.
- As nothing in his kit boosts Force damage, damage booster transfers are mandatory.
- No Single-Target attack means he will have trouble against Anti-Force-Pierce like Rama + Susano-o A.
|
| Notes |
- He is mostly an early-game demon, and will fall off once you gain access to stronger Pierce sweepers like Baal and Anat.
- Low AGI makes him useable in Intimidating Stance teams.
|
|
 Cu Chulainn A

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Has full pierce on two elements.
- Barbed Spear deals three separate hits, allowing it to function as an Endure breaker.
- Culann's Hound provides him an Auto-Charge at end of turn. This allows him to deal massive damage the next turn if he is not dealt with.
- Teal has Drain Phys to pair with Rama in Drain Teams, increasing his survivability.
|
| 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.
- As nothing in his kit boosts Force damage, damage booster transfers are mandatory.
|
| Notes |
- Auto-Charge does not activate when waves are cleared in PVE.
- Barbed Spear has a hidden accuracy bonus. Combined with innate Epitome of Aggression this gives him more accuracy than one would initially expect.

- |
| Pros |
|
| Cons |
- Lack of Fire Pierce means she will struggle against Fire NDR.
- Expensive multi-fusion that requires clear Asherah.
|
| Notes |
- In PVP, Fire Pierce (weak) is insufficient due to the popularity of Asherah and Rama.
- Difficult to Panel due to Clear demons only giving 60 spirits.

 Daisoujou

- |
- |
| 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. These two skills function together to make him the best Cleric in the game.
- Good balanced stats coupled with no weaknesses and a perfect base kit allows total 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 |
- He is very good in the current Curse-focused Meta, particularly against Nebiros.

- |
- |
| 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.
|
| 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 requires setup in order to Pierce.
|
| Notes |
- Pairs well with Hell Biker or Panel 3 Zaou-Gongen for free Rebellion setup.
- Limited-time Collaboration unit. Nobody knows if he will be rerun.
- Currently does not have panels, reducing his potential.

| Pros |
- Golden Greed greatly increases poison damage, giving him a unique niche against Celestial Gui Xian.
- Red Fafnir meme pull.
|
| Cons |
- Does not have any other niches outside Celestial Gui Xian.
- Weak to Ice and Elec.
- Red Fafnir meme pull.

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Very good Ice Nuker with built-in Ice Boost and Master Assassin in purple.
- 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 |

 Gabriel

- |
- |
| Pros |
- One of the core demons in the Archangels archetype. 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 Thunderclap and Elec Enhancement in Purple means she can function well as an Elec Mage too, particularly for Democalypse.
|
| Cons |
- Needs a specific team built fully around her.
- Chain effects kills demons before they have a chance to talk, making her less useful for Aura Gate.
- Weak to Dark
|
| Notes |
- Requires additional MP Support when going against Alice A teams
- Reflected God's Word will damage her because of innate pierce. Beware of Alilat and Atavaka.

 Garuda

3 |
- |
- |
| Pros |
- One of the fastest and most flexible demons in the game. With Speedster transferred, he can help your team hit various PVE battle speed requirements, while fulfilling either a support or additional DPS role depending on build.
- Vahana provides additional Evasion and can stack with other evasion passives like Evade to make him a dodge tank.
- Auto-Rakunda increases your team's damage output and synergizes well with his Turn 1 focus.
|
| Cons |
- Does not have Speedster innately which in turn consumes a skill slots.
- Very low bulk
- Weak to Ice.
|
| Notes |
- More or less outclassed by Hresvelgr in PVP nowadays.
- Red gives him access to discounted Maragidyne, giving him a cheap T1 nuke. Yellow makes him more support-oriented with Fog Breath.
|
|
 Garuda A
|
|
|
3 |

3 |
- |
- |
| Pros |
- Brilliant Wings fires a Piercing AOE Force attack every time any of your demon successfully dodges an attack. This makes him a powerful pick versus pure physical demons like Masakado and Guan Yu.
- Brilliant Wings fits well with evasive demons such as Nekomata A.
- Gale Talon is very damaging against lone targets like Bosses, making him very potent for Democalypse. It can also be used for PVP cleanup and/or Endure breaking.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Ice
- Evasion is useless against Magic teams
- Gale Talon takes time to reach full potential, reducing his T1 potential.
- Needs a team built around him to be really effective

 Gogmagog

3 |
- |
- |
| Pros |
- Very high bulk, which he can capitalize on thanks to innate Earthquake.
- 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.
- Repel Phys in Teal pairs well with Alilat or Atavaka for Phys Anti-Pierce.
|
| Cons |
- Abysmal AGI means he misses. A lot.
- No innate pierce.
|
| Notes |
- Single target nukes will still hurt him a lot, especially with bonus damage from exploiting his multiple weaknesses.
|
|
 Guan Yu
|
|
|

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.
- Purple gives him access to Null Mortal, making him even harder to kill.
|
| 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.
- Only has ST skills unless in Red, which reduces his overall PvP usefulness
|
| Notes |
- A Null Curse transfer makes him unkillable by Alice A, and also stops Curse from interfering with Loyal God of War healing.
- 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.

 Guts

5 |
5 |
- |
- |
| Pros |
- Extremely high Crit rate thanks to Savage Glee and The Struggler. Butcher in purple further augments his damage.
- 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.
- Is decently tanky thanks to good bulk and The Struggler providing him a better Enduring Soul.
- Panel 1 gives him access to a Piercing Fire AOE that does not cost MP, very useful against MP denial teams.
|
| 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 Panel 2 might cause issues when out of MP.
|
| Notes |
- Limited-time Collaboration unit. Nobody knows if he will be rerun.
|

 Hecate

- |
- |
| 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.
- Virtually immune to ailments thanks to Null Bind and Lunar Awakening. Transferring a cleanse skill like Prayer or Silent Prayer will allow her to function as a cleric, while still maintaining her offensive presence.
- Panel 2 lets her run Life or Spell brands without worrying about MP.
|
| Cons |
- Not very bulky due to middling VIT and HP stats.
- Weak to light and by extension the Archangels matchup.
- As Lunar Awakening only cleanses at the end of the enemy's turn, she can still be killed by Alice A if she is cursed in the same turn (such as through Mahaju).
|
| Notes |
- Innate Repel Dark means she can't be sniped by Alice if paired with Alilat or Atavaka. This is very significant as most dedicated ailment teams run Alice to remove the cleric.
- 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.
|
|
 Hresvelgr
|
|
|
4 |
5 |
5 |
- |
- |
| Pros |
- Highest Base AGI in the game, making him 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.
- Decent MAG with innate Ice Boost lets him fire off strong Budufynes.
|
| Cons |
- No ice pierce.
- Does not have Speedster innately which in turn consumes a skill slots.
- Weak to Phys and Fire. Phys Weakness is particularly bad unless paired with Orcus for Press Turn denial.

- |
- |
| 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.
|
| Cons |
- As nothing in his kit boosts damage, damage booster transfers are mandatory.
- Yinglong Killer has a very high MP cost and cannot be fired off Turn 1.
- Below average HP and Vit stats.
|
| Notes |
- More of less outclassed by Guts. Oh how the mighty have fallen!
- AI is very unreliable for PvP Defense; will occasionally Yinglong Killer into Anti-Pierce and lose press turns.
- Panel 3 healing has some fun applications together with Lakshmi A, allowing him to restore both HP and MP to the whole party upon a crit.

 Huang Long

- |
- |
| Pros |
- High AGI, incredible resistances and decent bulk make him a coveted PVE support demon.
- Five Elements walls magical demons without Pierce, such as Mother Harlot, Trumpeter and non-purple Rama.
- Luster Candy in Yellow gives him even more support utility in buff control. Purple provides him Speedster, giving him full flexibility over which skills to transfer.
- Trivializes Brands of Sin stage 10, opening up brand farming on Auto.
|
| Cons |
|
| Notes |
- Yellow AI has issues on auto as it will sometimes cast Luster Candy when you want to be spamming Five Elements instead. Due to this, Yellow is mostly recommended for Manual Play, and Purple for Auto-ing.

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Extremely high MAG stat. Panel 1 further increases her AOE damage.
- Her unique spell Mesopotamian Star deals Almighty damage while autocasting Tarukaja and Tarunda. At Panel 3, this further applies Rakukaja and Sukukaja, allowing her to deal damage while simultaneously buffing and debuffing.
- Gains Concentrate in Yellow, letting her nuke even harder.
|
| Cons |
- Very high MP costs.
- Mesopotamian Star has low base power.
- Weak to Force and Dark.
- Low AGI stat and bad bulk.
|
| Notes |
- Due to her high MAG and Panel 1 bonus, she works very well as an elemental caster for Democalypse if you can transfer the appropriate elemental spell.

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Upon death, Yaxche autocasts an almighty Mortal spell that will instakill the enemy that killed her, bypassing Endure.
- Yaxche autocast is almighty Mortal and ignores Endure-type skills.
- Yellow gives her access to discounted Mahashibabooon, letting her also function as an Ailment inflictor.
|
| Cons |
|
| Notes |
- There is no way to reset her level once you have leveled her up.
- You can leave her at Lv 1 to bait the AI into killing her and triggering Yaxche. Pair her with teammates that carry resurrection spells to repeat this cycle like Nebiros and Xi Wangmu.
- Leaving her at Lv 1 also sharply drops your battle speed, perfect for slow teams.
|

 Izanami

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 or Dark.
- Yomotsu Okami provides a teamwide increase to Dark and Elec damage, perfect for Democalypse.
- Great set of panels that provide her MP reduction, Elec Pierce and increased damage.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Fire
- Very expensive to fuse
- No true AOE spells
- Very RNG reliant in Democalypse as you cannot rely on Eileen to weather out bad Bolt Storm rolls.
|
| Notes |
- Panel 2 for Elec Pierce is mandatory for PVP.
- Red gives her Hell Gaze, while purple provides Elec Amp. As both are very useful for their respective elemental Democalypse, consider building two of them if your Faction does these elements.

- 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, and is difficult to build due to it scaling it off PATK and MATK.
- 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.
- Panels do not benefit her much.
|
| Notes |
- Limited-time Collaboration unit. Nobody knows if she will be rerun.
- Pretty much outclassed by P3 Lilith, who does "Bind upon Charm" better.

- 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.
|
| Cons |

- 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 |
- Weak to Force
- Lack of good innate offensive skills wastes her high MAG stat.
- Countered very hard by Daisoujou clearing her charms and punishing her for using them.

 Lucifer

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Morning Star is the most powerful Almighty AOE spell in the game.
- Purple gives him Butcher to further augment his damage.
- Good bulk especially with Panel 2 unlocked. This helps him live long enough to build up the MP necessary for Morning Star.
- Repel Dark is sometimes useful with Alilat or Atavaka against bosses with Dark Pierce.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Light.
- Very MP hungry. Even when paired with P1 Lucifuge, he cannot Turn 1 Morning Star against Alice A teams without dedicated MP support.
- Very expensive to fuse and panel.
- No Pierce and full Almighty kit means he is shut down hard by Five Elements.
|
| Notes |
- Paired with Panel 1 Lucifuge, you can also use him in a devastating Turn 1 Sweeper team.
|
|
 Lucifuge

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Hell's Ministry reduces Almighty cost for all Tyrant race demons and improves their bulk. Paired with his Panel 1 Bonus, this will give a whopping 2MP discount and enable powerful Turn 1 combos such as Lucifer's Morning Star.
- Light Devourer is a hard-hitting single target Dark spell, further amplified by innate Dark Amp.
- Clear gains access to discounted Necro Dogma. As it only costs 6MP when maxed (5MP if Panel 1), it can be fired off Turn 1 and giving your whole party a defensive buff as a bonus.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Light
- Extremely expensive to fuse.
- Middling AGI hurts battle speed for fast T1 teams.
|
| Notes |
- Requires Panel 1 to really shine.
- Unimpressive without good teammates. His best partner Lucifer is another very expensive fusion, and requires Panel 3 to be really competitive in PVP.

 Mahakala
|
|
|

3 |
- |
- |
| Pros |
- High Magic stats and innate Concentrate + Pierce from The Great Darkness make him a very powerful ST Nuker.
- Wrathful Flame reduces defense, allowing your teammates to hit harder. It can also be cast on turn 1 PVP with spell brands if maxed.
- Very effective in Democalypse boss rounds as buffs/debuffs are difficult to come by.
- Goes through Endure as Wrathful Flame counts as three separate hits.
|
| Cons |
- Combination of ST and AOE in his kit makes it difficult to further boost his damage.
|
| Notes |
- Unlike Indrajit, lack of MP recovery means he cannot spam Wrathful Flame as easily in PVP.
- If Mahakala is not alive at the beginning of the turn The Great Darkness won't increase the turn count until Mahakala is revived and survives until the start of the following turn.
|

 Mara

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Only fuseable source of Phys Pierce.
- High STR and LUK means he will hit hard and crit often.
- Hell Thrust is very strong against bosses and in Democalypse, especially if he is Panel 3.
- Meme
|
| Cons |
- Ice Weakness and non-existent bulk makes him go limp at the sight of Ice skills.
- High MP costs give Mara a big refractory period.
- Expensive to fuse, will quickly blow through your Magnetite reserves.
- Requires damage boost transfer to supplement his damage.
- Middling AGI means he will have accuracy issues and occasionally miss the hole. Also doesn't slot into Intimidating Stance teams well as a result.
- Due to Mara having no single target besides his regular thrust, Anti-Pierce units like Rama, Alilat and Atavaka are a turn off.

- |
| Pros |
- Innate Phys Amp in purple combined with a MASSIVE STR stat allow him to dish out ridiculous amounts of Physical damage.
- Warlord's Wrath is a loaded passive that combines Intimidating Stance, Faithful Counter and Phys Pierce.
- Occult Flash is a high damage, high crit-rate single target skill that will inflict Mortal with 100% chance.
- Has no weakness and a perfect base kit, allowing you to tailor his remaining transfer slots however you like.
- Gains Drain Phys in Teal, allowing you to pair him Rama to act as a Phys Anti-Pierce unit.
|
| Cons |
- Low Agility leads to accuracy issues, especially against evasive targets.
- Is very frail thanks to a low VIT and HP stat.

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Guardian of the East provides 1 extra Press Turn when going first, enabling devastating Turn 1 Kill strats like Hero Masakado T1.
- Kuyo Flash can be cast 1st turn and swings offensive buffs entirely in your favor through autocast Tarukaja, Rakunda, Sukukaja and Sukunda.
- Panel 2 provides team wide Null Mortal for one turn. This is useful for sweeping Ixtab defenses, or protecting your allies from being counterswept by Alice A if you fail to kill them Turn 1.
- Incredible set of resistances with 3 Nulls (Phys, Dark, Light) and no weakness allows you to tailor the rest of his transfer slots however you please.
|
| Cons |
- No good physical attacks to exploit his innate Phys Pierce. Only Phys attack available to him is Myriad Arrows in Red which has random targeting and is thus not very reliable.
- Easily countered by outspeeding. This is a problem for last hour PVP, as Masakado A defenses will get relentlessly targetted by players looking to climb last minute.

| Pros |
- Good Magic coupled with Trial of Hate's high base power makes him an incredible Light sweeper. The debuff is icing on the cake.
- Good set of resistances with 1 Null and 2 Reflects.
- Works well in Archangel Teams to provide more sweeping power.
- Laughs at his enemies occasionally
|
| Cons |
- No innate pierce, requires Light Pierce (weak) to really shine.
- Weak to Fire. This is especially problematic in Brands of Sin: Sloth 11 and above, as the boss has innate Trisagion.
- Binding Cry, while a flavorful skill is unfortunately wasted on Mastema.
|
| Notes |
- Easy 4x4 fusion paths and good panels make him a decent Panel 3 goal to strive toward.

- High Magic stat and Infinite Chakra lets him function well as a magic sweeper.
- Works well in an Archangel Team, as Fire of Sinai is great for cleaning up and breaking Endures.
- Gains discounted Mahamadyne in Red which is great for Brands of Sin Sloth 10 and 11 farming.
- Panel 3 amplifies all Magic damage.
|
| Cons |
- Very difficult to fuse, only 1 recipe available.
- Full Almighty / non-Piercing kit means he is shut down hard by Five Elements.
- Low AGI stat penalizes him in the Archangels PVP strat.

- Yellow gives him access to discounted Mediarahan, allowing him to double as a healer.
- Very good set of resistances, especially in Teal.

- |
| Pros |
- The only unit in the game that has a Critical Counter, God 1000 Fist Cannon will unleash a random barrage of piercing Physical attacks whenever the enemy scores a crit.
- Extremely high bulk and damage reduction from Bloody Scripture make him a powerful tank. Building him as a tank also increases God 1000 Fist Cannon and Muscle Punch damage, as they both depend on Phys DEF for damage. Earthquake in red furthers this synergy.
- Yellow gives him access to discounted War Cry, letting him play a support role if required.

| Cons |

- Limited-time Collaboration unit. Nobody knows if he will be rerun.

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Babylon Goblet drains MP from all enemies while providing her MP sustain, allowing her to loop the same attack over and over even without Divine Brands. With Panel 2 unlocked, she will additionally spread charm all over the enemy's team.
- Teal gives her Drain Phys, ideal for pairing with Rama. Notably, she is the only Drain Phys unit that can function as a magic sweeper.
- Has access to discounted Debilitate in Yellow, letting her play a more support role if needed.
- Works very well in a slow Ailment Team, or with Alice A in MP denial teams.
- Incredible set of Panels. With Panel 3 unlocked, she can keep enemies permanently charmed by reapplying Charm each turn.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Force
- Full Almighty kit means she is shut down hard by Five Elements.
- Low AGI and high MP costs makes her unsuitable for fast teams.
|
| Notes |
- The MP drain aspect of Babylon Goblet is less useful for PVE, as the AI has infinite MP. It does allow you to replenish her MP indefinitely though.
|
|
 Nebiros

5 |
- |
- |
| Pros |
- Call of the Dead is the only revive skill in the game without a usage limit. This enables infinite revives especially if paired with healing support like Nadja.
- As Call of the Dead triggers at the end of the enemy turn, it lets you start your turn with full press turns, and proc any start of turn chain effects like Archangels.
- Hand of Glory provides AOE Curse + Luster Candy on ally death. The Curse is great setup for Alice A (and his own passive) while the buffs increase your likelihood of surviving the turn.
- Highest LUK in the game paired with innate Epitome of Madness makes him a great Dodge tank.
- Panel 2 grants Null Mortal which makes him even harder to kill.
|
| Cons |
- Hard countered by Null Curse and revive sealing skills like Sword of Actuation.
- Weak to light and by extension the Archangels matchup. Teal fixes this somewhat but you lose Null Bind in return.
- Call of the Dead can be mitigated by a Cleric removing Curse before end of the turn.

 Nergal

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Plague of Babylon removes Barriers and has a very high chance of landing Weak status, making him incredible setup for Ailment Teams.
- High STR, Auto-Tarukaja and increased Accuracy from Meslamtaea make him a decent Physical demon, especially when Paneled.
- Auto-Rebellion on Poison boosts his damage and synergizes with Pale Rider.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Ice
- Ailments fall flat in late/endgame PvE because of inflated enemy stats
- Hard countered by Ailment Cleansers like Daisoujou or Kinmamon in PVP.
- AGI too low for Ailment Teams standards.
|
| Notes |
- P3 Samael offers similar barrier break without consuming a Press Turn. This is vital versus double Intimidating Stance Teams, as Nergal consuming a Press Turn means you are left with a single Press for casting a true ailment.
- Compared to P3 Samael, Nergal gives your other demons more flexibility in choosing brands, as they can forego Ailment Infliction completely. Weigh the extra Press Turn versus stat flexibility carefully.

- |
| Pros |
- Overture deals Piercing damage while giving him free Concentrate, letting him sweep hard.
- Voltage synergises perfectly with Overture and gives your party attack and accuracy/evasions buffs.
- Very good for Democalypse where he does not have to worry about MP issues and can repeatedly spam Concentrated Overtures while on Spell Brands for insane damage.
|
| Cons |
- Hard countered by Anti-Pierce, as Overture will not autocast Concentrate (and by extension Voltage) if the attack hits into NDR.
- Mediocre stats, relies on Concentrate from Overture to deal damage.
- No ST skills if not in Red.
- High MP costs and no MP recovery prevent him from spamming his spells freely.
|
| Notes |
- Limited-time Collaboration unit. Nobody knows if he will be rerun.
- Currently does not have panels, reducing his potential.

- |
- |
| Pros |
- One of the strongest support demons in the game. Law of Hell denies bonus turns when striking weakness, while Hell's Gate grants AOE damage reduction for each open weakness.
- This eliminates the need to cover weaknesses for all your demons, allowing them to inherit more valuable transfer skills like Epitome of Fortitude, Recarmdra, Auto-Tarunda etc.
- Very good buff control with War Cry and Nocturne in Yellow.
|
| Cons |
- Hell's Gate damage reduction does not apply to single target attacks.
- Very MP Hungry. Divines help with MP costs but reduce his bulk.
- Needs specific team compositions to work well.
|
| Notes |
- You still receive extra damage from open weaknesses.
- Due to the way Law of Hell is coded, it will also deny bonus turns gained from a Crit if the attacked demon has a Physical weakness. This ironically makes Slime a great partner for him, as Slime has six open weaknesses including Phys.

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Very good in an Ailment Team, as Pestilence will kill any enemy after 2 turns, no questions asked.
- Perfect synergy with a set-up based sweeper Nergal. Nergal helps to remove any barriers and ensures Plague's poison can land via Weak, which in turn triggers his own Meslamtaea passive.
- Gains the strongest debuff Debilitate in Yellow, letting him double as a debuffer.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Elec
- Ailments generally fall flat in late/endgame PvE because of inflated enemy stats
- Hard countered by Ailment Cleansers like Daisoujou or Kinmamon in PVP.
- Pestilence only kicks in at the end of enemy's turn, giving them one whole turn to cleanse it away or just outright kill him.
- Requires a specific team built around him to really work.
- Panels 1 and 2 don't contribute to the Ailment build.

4 |
- |
- |
| Pros |
- Has full Fire Pierce and Fire Amp by default, plus Butcher in Purple. This makes him a deadly Fire Sweeper for both Fire Democalypse and PVP.
- Aztec Pulse costs only 5 MP when maxed and does massive damage when combined with his other passives. The low MP cost also means you can spam it twice with Divine Brands going first, or twice with Spell Brands going second.
- Ce Acatl grants him a free revive once per battle, while refunding the press turn lost from his death. This makes him a great counter for Fast T1 Teams on offense, as anything short of a full team wipe will result in him coming back to life and reverse-sweeping with double Aztec Pulses.
- Pairs well with Rama has he has Drain Fire by default. This is especially useful versus Herald team comps to counter Uriel's Sunrise.
- Red gives him access to discounted Trisagion, useful versus Fire Anti-Pierce.
|
| Cons |
|
| Notes |
- As press turn count is determined at the start of the round, Ce Acatl press turn generation only cancels out the lost press turn from his death.

 Rama

| Pros |
- One of only three demons that can negate pierce.
- While alive, Drain Pierce will prevent pierce skills from going through Drain resistances and is the cornerstone of the Drain Teams archetype.
- Brahmastra is a three-hit Almighty skill that functions as an Endure-breaker.
- Good base stats and no weaknesses allow him to fulfill a variety of roles, be it support or sweeper. Yellow Rama can function as a good support demon with discounted Luster Candy whereas Purple gives him Ice Pierce which lets him sweep with Mabufudyne.
|
| Cons |
|
| Notes |
- Teal gives him Drain Ice which pairs well with Drain Pierce and can be used to cheese certain difficult PvE content like Hell's Park Floor 100 and Celestial Gui Xian.

| Pros |
- Good Str, decent Agi and Luck means he will hit hard without much Accuracy issues.
- Blade of Terror deals consistent Fractional damage based on enemies current HP, unaffected by buffs. Blade of Terror will bypass the accuracy check since it is a fractional skill.
- Blade of Terror has high AOE Bind chance when maxed, and can be used Turn 1 due to it's low MP cost.
|
| Cons |
- Blade of Terror falls off later in the fight as it is based on Current HP (and is capped against late game targets in PVE).
- No innate Pierce means Panel 2 or a Phys Pierce (weak) transfer is mandatory.

- 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.

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Demons die when they are killed by Sword of Actuation, unable to be revived. This lets him counter Nebiros and Xi Wangmu revive strats, making him an exceptional Anti-Meta unit.
- Sword of Actuation has a ridiculously low MP cost at max level (5 MP) - Even without Panels it can be cast Turn 1 with War Brands. Panel 2 further reduces it to 4 MP, allowing it to be cast regardless of brands or matchup.
- Foe of Demons defensively buffs your team at the start of your opponent's turn, increasing your odds of surviving.
- Repel Phys in Teal makes him a good partner for Alilat and Atavaka.
|
| Cons |
- Difficult to boost Sword of Actuation further due to it being Almighty Phys.
- Requires a good team setup around him to truly shine.
- Middling AGI makes him slightly awkward to fit in fast or slow teams.
|
| Notes |
- Has AI issues when used on defense - AI will occasionally target demons with high HP instead of trying to finish off demons with Sword of Actuation. This can be circumvented by pairing him with sweepers like Hecate or Atavaka to soften everyone up, ensuring Sword of Actuation will kill whoever his AI targets.
- Limited-time Collaboration unit. Nobody knows if he will be rerun.

- Xi Wangmu is a very oppressive partner for him as her passive helps to keep him (and by extension, Heavenly Valor) alive. She also allows him to forgo bulk stats entirely to focus on damage and accuracy.
- Heavenly Valor has lower base accuracy compared to typical Physical AOEs.

| Pros |
- Mjolnir deals massive damage against single targets, ideal for Bosses and Democalypse.
- Panels grant him a lot of damage, making him an ideal Elec mage especially with Elec Pierce in Purple.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Force
- High STR is wasted on him as an Elec Mage. Megaton Raid and Charge are wasted slots.
- Random targetting is very hard to use for PVP.
|
| Notes |
- AI is extremely bad on Auto, as Charge will mess him up.

| Pros |
- Flag of Salvation boosts your entire team's light damage, making him useful for Brands of Sin: Sloth 11 and Light Democalypse. It also passively restores 1 MP to your whole party when clearing a wave.
- Amakusa Uprising deals heavy single target damage and can crit. Combined with innate Death Blow and Light Amp in purple, this makes him a very strong Light nuker, especially with Panel 2 unlocked. It also provides your team Tarukaja and Sukukaja buffs, allowing your following demons to hit harder.
- Great set of Transferable skills being one of the only two sources of Death Blow and the only source of Auto-Rebellion.
|
| Cons |
- Requires Panel 2 to unlock his full potential for PVP, as being able to guarantee crits for extra turns is very powerful.
- Only has pierce through Amakusa Uprising, no Piercing AOE.
- Needs accuracy investment for PVP, as Amakusa Uprising can miss.
|
| Notes |
- Light is a very good element in the current Meta, as several popular demons usually do not have it covered (Alice A, Nebiros and Hecate to name a few).
- The additional MP from Flag of Salvation allows your other demons to drop Divine Brands and/or Mana Aid in favor for more offensive brands and passives.
- Red gives is discounted Mahamadyne. Note that having this unlocked might mess up your Brands of Sin: Sloth 11 runs, as the AI will prioritize it over Amakusa Uprising.

| Pros |
- Demons die when they are killed by Dark Premonition, unable to be revived.
- Revive seal is very useful in certain PVE content (like several AG2 bosses) and to counter Nebiros and Xi Wangmu revive strats in PVP.
- High innate dodge rate which compliments the Mute from Dark Premonition.
- Red gains discounted Mind Blast, which can be used to further disable enemies.
|
| Cons |
- Needs to be below 50% HP to unlock most of her kit, making her a glass cannon.
- Dark Premonition only has mediocre base damage, and can be stopped by Dark Anti-Pierce such as Rama + Masakado.
- Mediocre stats.
- Ailments fall flat in late PvE because of inflated enemy stats.
- Weak to Light

- |
| Pros |
- One of the core demons in the Archangels archetype. When combined with two other Herald or Divine demons, God's Fire dishes out massive damage even before battle really begins.
- God's Fire gives your party a Tarukaja attack buff, and at Panel 2 even adds in a Rakunda debuff, swinging offensive buffs to your favor.
- Chain effects do not consume press turns even when hitting NDR.
|
| Cons |
- Needs Team built around him
- Chain effects kills demons before they have a chance to talk, making him less useful for Aura Gate.
- Weak to Dark

| Pros |
- Radiant Mantra constantly resets all buffs and debuffs at the start of enemy turn. When used in a slow team, this allows him to nullify auto-skills, giving your team more flexibility in skill transfer.
- Good repel resistances makes him a natural partner for Alilat and Atavaka. Fire and Light repel is especially useful to counter Archangel teams, as it makes him immune to both their AOE elements.
- High MAG and Butcher in purple allows him to function as a strong almighty sweeper. In addition to dealing respectable almighty damage, Path of Prominence also applies a mini Luster Candy buff, extending his role as a buff control specialist.
- No weaknesses and a self-sufficient kit gives him full flexibility over skill transfers.
- Yellow gives him access to discounted Mediarahan, allowing him to function as a decent PVE Healer.
|
| Cons |
- Very hard to further boost his damage.
- Despite wanting to go second to fully abuse Radiant Mantra, his AGI is on the high side.
- Very high MP costs. Even with maxed Path of Prominence and Divine Brands, he won't be able to spam it consistently unless Panel 2 is also unlocked.
- Full Almighty / non-Piercing kit means he is shut down hard by Five Elements.

| Pros |
- Good bulk make him a tanky Mage thanks to Avatar.
- Gains discounted Megidolaon in Red.
- Healing and MP reduction from Panels further his tanky Mage role.
- Low AGI makes him ideal for budget slow teams.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Fire
- Low damage output compared to Top Tier demons.
- Needs heavy investment in Brands and Panels to be usable in PVP.
|
| Notes |
- Low AGI forces him into slow teams, but slow teams prefer very high damage demons (even if their MP cost is high) rather than demons able to spam low MP-cost low damage attacks.

| Pros |
- Griffon-Bolt is borderline oppressive when combined with Turn 1 teams with lots of Crit passing for Press Turn generation. Good teammates include Masakado A, Asura Lord and Kartikeya.
- Will virtually never have MP issues thanks to Shadow-Shock giving him a free Almighty ST attack.
- Balanced stats and no weaknesses give him flexibility in transfer skills.
- Red and Yellow give him an Almighty AOE skill that debuffs.
- Laughs at his enemies occasionally
|
| Cons |
- Very harshly countered by Five Elements on Defense, as the AI does not know how to pass and will lose press turns attacking into it.
- Relies on auto-attacks, does not contribute much if his teammates are spamming skills instead.
- Demons with AOE reduction passives like Hecatoncheires and Orcus significantly reduces his damage.
|
| Notes |
- Limited-time Collaboration unit. Nobody knows if he will be rerun.

| Pros |
- Peach of Immortality gives all your demons two extra lives. This is especially powerful if coupled with naturally tanky demons like Hecate and Guan Yu, or demons with on-death effects such as Ixtab and Nadja.
- Goddess' Fan removes all buffs from the opponent and fully debuffs them, swinging buff advantage in your favor.
- Above average bulk and Null Mortal in purple allows her to survive most onslaughts and resurrect her fallen teammates.
- Decent PVE Healer with innate Mediarama.
|
| Cons |
|
| Notes |
- Demons are immediately raised by Peach of Immortality upon death. This can be a disadvantage against Hyper Offensive comps, who can simply kill said demon again in the same turn.

- |
- |
| Pros |
- Widely considered the best demon for PVE as he has access to an AOE in Vorpal Blade, a boss-killing skill in Hassou Tobi, MP refresh in Mana Aid and a damage booster in Phys Amp.
- Innate Mana Aid lets him repeatedly spam Vorpal Blade or Hassou Tobi in PVE.
- Hassou Tobi does massive damage against lone targets, making it ideal against bosses and Democalypse.
- Teal can be used to cheese certain PvE Content.
- Excellent set of panels that grant him Accuracy, more MP and more damage.
|
| Cons |
- Only native pierce on Hassou Tobi.
- Random Targetting on Hassou Tobi makes it bad against Waves and in PvP.
- Will have MP issues if Panel 2 is not unlocked.

- |
| Pros |
- Kongo Zaou is a powerful passive that grants Phys Pierce to all your demons under Rebellion. Hell Gongen is a team archetype based specifically around this ability.
- Panel 3 grants team-wide rebellion whenever he crits. This is very powerful for Physical-based Hero Masakado T1 teams, as it cranks up their damage to insane levels and guarantees virtually infinite crits.
- Red gives him a cheap AOE attack in Herculean Strike.
- While not common, he can work as a Fire Mage as he has passable Magic and Fire Amp in Purple.
- Great set of Panels that provide additional damage, accuracy and team-wide Rebellion.
|
| Cons |
- Weak to Elec
- Middling AGI affects his Accuracy and Speed. Missing can be disastrous for a Masakado A team, as they aim to win on the very first turn.
|
| Notes |
- Auto-Rebellion is a very powerful transfer skill for him, as it will guarantee he can start the crit loop.
