Pros
  • Masakado B is the epitome of busted demons, introducing Spirit Chains (Suppression), which disables any and all chain effects activated via passives. This includes Elusis's Blessing, Rejection, Golden Apple, alongside many, many other passives.
  • Determined Hero is one of the most powerful passives in the entire game, adding Phys Pierce, +50% Max HP, +30% Phys damage, Null Bind, -1 to the count of Spirit Chains (Suppression) received. Determined Hero also casts Debilitate and inflicts 1 count of Spirit Chains (Suppression) on all enemies if the enemy attacks first at the start of battle as well as when an ally is about to act. This skill also removes Good Status effects from the enemy party when Heavenly Sword Stroke is activated, removing effects like Five Elements or Tetraja from the enemy party.
  • Heavenly Sword Strike is the first Magical Phys skill in the game, and deals 300BP Phys Magic damage to a single enemy plus adds an additional Press Turn if successful. This skill also scales on Max HP, which allows you to go all-in on Masakado B's bulk.
  • Incredible awakening and gacha skills. All of Masakado B's gacha skills are worth using, with Epitome of Fortitude and Life Force Survivor adding extra bulk, Null Charm-Poison giving him an edge against Tiamat A, and Phys Vital boosting both his Max HP and Phys damage output. Patriotic General is also fantastic for T2 teams that need extra crit resist and a slower speed, while Ascended General grants bonus speed and even more damage, perfect for T1.
  • Panels are great and far from necessary from making Masakado B a menace in PVP. P1 adds Null Mortal and -1MP cost to Phys skills, lowering the cost of Heavenly Sword Stroke and Breakneck Dance down to 4MP. P2 makes all enemies inflicted with Spirit Chains (Suppression) take +15% increased damage.
  • From stopping Demeter and Idun from spamming Bulwark and Fortify respectively when he's in a T1 team, to preventing demon's chains such as Unit 01 Dx2 Type's Demonized Form from going off when put in a T2 team, Masakado B is useful in all kinds of teams.
Cons
  • Since all damage is tied to his Max HP, demons such as Mephisto and Barbatos can put a good dent in his damage by hitting him with Decay.
