Role Summary

Name Best Archetype(s) PVE PVP Democalypse
PVE PVP Offense Defense Prelim Boss
Motoko Kusanagi.jpg Motoko Kusanagi
Purple Teal Yellow 3 4 4 2 1
Pros
  • She is essentially an entire Ailment Team neatly packaged into one demon. Not only does Ghost Hack remove Barriers, it also has a high chance of inflicting Bind and Mute, in addition to only costing 5 MP to cast. With Panel 2 unlocked, this further chains into a Tarukaja and Sukukaja buff.
  • At the end of her turn, Optical Camouflage hits every demon suffering an ailment with a Piercing Phys AOE. This damage can be further ramped up by the discounted Charge she gains in Yellow.
  • Due to how packed her kit is, she can easily be splashed into teams looking for some Ailment control, or in Defense teams to catch players randoming without sufficient Ailment protection.
  • Panel 3 gives her increased Battle Speed, allowing her to act as a pseudo-Speedster.
Cons
  • Her damage is fairly underwhelming due to a low STR stat and lack of any damage boosters in her kit.
  • Hard-countered by Ailment immunity, most notably Daisoujou and Panelled Moirai Sisters like Atropos + Lachesis.
Notes
  • Yellow discounts Charge to 5 MP. With Divine Brands, she can cast both Ghost Hack and Charge on the same turn going first. This is not possible against Alice A without some MP support though.
  • Limited-time Collaboration unit. Nobody knows if she will be rerun.
  • A big issue with this game is how collab units are near irrelevant for pvp or even pve. Barely any collab units are even remotely useful in today's meta which is infuriating considering how limited and hard to get they are. Almost all of them get outclassed by non-collab units that are way easier to get. Some of them like Meliodas, Ban, Berserker Guts and Griffith have their niches but require a lot of investment and a very specific team composition to get the most out of them. You'd think that just on the fact that they're limited time collab units, making them some of the best units in the game would be a priority but that isn't the case with this game.
