Role Summary

Name Best Archetype(s) PVE PVP Democalypse
PVE PVP Offense Defense Prelim Boss
Tezcatlipoca.jpg Tezcatlipoca
Purple Yellow Red Purple Yellow 4 3 3 5 5
Pros
  • Ome Acatl is a heavily loaded passive, offering Dark Pierce, a damage amp to cursed enemies, Barrier Break for free if his team attacks first, and a revive punish, doing fractional damage that can curse to the opponent any time an enemy is revived.
  • Over 200 magic and innate Dark Amp make Yohuallipoca hit hard, especially on a single opponent, doing up to 270 bp to a single target, making him extremely powerful for both the wave and boss phases of democ.
  • His panels are well suited to his role, offering battle speed, damage, and offensive buff control when an enemy is cursed.
  • Can be an enabler for fast AG2 farming teams with Alice A, along with BoS Vanity 13.
Cons
  • Ultimately, Tezca is an ailment demon coming into a meta where the most popular demon, Maria, is ailment immune and has discounted Salvation.
  • Relies heavily on going first to get his barrier break, but is outsped by the faster demons in the game.
  • He has niches, especially in democalypse, but he's a demon designed to counter Xi Wangmu but just came out too late; she isnt as popular anymore.
  • His revive punish isn't as good as you might expect against Maria and Echidna, because those revives activate at the end of your turn and his punish is current hp based and can't kill, meaning you're vulnerable to being counterswept.
  • Something that is very unintentionally popular are demons paired with Demiurge who also happen to possess innate Repel Dark or Drain Dark (for example Masakado, Beelzebub☆ and Beelzebub (Human)). Because of this, AOE Dark damage tends to be useless or at least unreliable for pvp and therefore, hindering Tezca's usefulness even more.
