Pros
  • The only demon in the game with access to two innate Endures in Purple. He can stack up to 5 Endures with transcend as a result, giving him immense survivability as long as it is not bypassed.
  • Fallen Grigori provides him HP and MP sustain every turn (as long as he is below the 80% threshold). Combined with his Endure stacks, this can make him very difficult to kill.
  • Guillotine Blaze is a low MP single target Fire Nuke that pierces, ignores Endures and has high crit rate. This is further augmented by innate Fire Amp and constant Rebellion from Fallen Grigori.
  • Panel 2 fire off a free Guillotine Blaze every turn, letting him deal extra damage without consuming MP.
Cons
  • Weak to Elec (unless Teal), which is currently a very bad weakness to have thanks to Atropos.
  • Damage is lackluster in Fire Democalypse Boss Phase, as the Boss has +100% Crit Resist.
  • Only Guillotine Blaze has Pierce.
  • Several skills like Baptisma and Dragon Slayer completely ignore Endures, negating a huge portion of his kit. This also applies to skills with Mortal effect.
  • Mortal could make him useful in theory against certain attackers but with a 10% chance, there's simply no point in gambling on it. Additionally, his chain effect in P2 is a liability against Demeter teams as it will just trigger bulwarks, as his damage isn't high enough.
Notes
  • Red provides him discounted Maragidyne, giving him access to an AoE skill for PvE and/or Democalypse. Note that it will not pierce though!
