Sustain fighter

Reduces incoming damage through Blut Vene while maintaining steady damage output. Lacks unique mechanics but holds the board reliably in early stages.

Scaling swordsman

Grows stronger with each Sword Art used, increasing attack damage over time. Offers decent AD and AP scaling but poor dodge, making frontline placement necessary.

 Spider King

Crowd control tank

Controls enemies through webs that root and slow movement. Serves as a dependable Guardian frontline unit early on.

 Kuroiashi

Hybrid caster

Balances ability power and attack damage through the Olive Oil passive. High AP potential with lower AD output keeps damage leaning toward spells.

Control tank

Applies blinds and sustains through health regeneration and Zetsu passives. Crowd control is useful, but damage remains low.

Early knight

Niche control unit

Designed to counter demon-based enemies early. Crowd control has situational value but rarely influences outcomes.
