Choice File
A Choice File is a special summoning resource that lets the user choose a 5★ demon (+ their archetype/color) from a specific lineup, which may include both fusible and non-fusible demons.
Choice Files are generally given out through events or the Shop, but some are available permanently, such as the 2nd anniversary choice file in Comeback Missions.
Demon Lineup
Below is an availability chart for the Special, 2nd anniv, and 3rd anniv choice files. "X" means the demon is available to choose, while "-" means it is not available.

Deciding what to summon
Being able to choose in a Gacha game is extremely valuable, so you should be very careful about what you choose from a given Choice File.
Some guidelines:
- If at all possible, try to AVOID choosing a fusible demon. You could just farm mag and make them later - the choice is better spent on a non-fusible demon that may be difficult to get otherwise.
- Choosing a good, non-fusible demon that you don't already have should be the highest priority.
- If none of the non-fusibles catch your interest, or if you just already have all of them, then pick one that can help with Spirit Merge paneling. Make sure that the demon you choose actually has good panels, though.
- If you're actively summoning on a banner, wait until AFTER you're done there, just in case you pull something that you would've gotten from the choice file. This then lets you pick something else from your choice file.
Once you've decided who you want, check the Tier List for which archetype colors perform best.
