There are a couple variations of how to play him that I know. 1. Short fights: dash in, get guard stance, dash back and intercept into wraith, and then alternate between them until 6 cruelty. Finish a combo and dash back to get demon. Full combo and then sp2 to finish. 2. Longer fights: start off and get guard stance. Don’t be as aggressive with the intercepts. The goal is to get the sp3 fury just after you get the precision passive off of the 7 cruelties. After that, you move into the short fight sequence to get the most out of the burst damage.
In general, I think he is underrated considering his utility. Guard stance purifies a debuff and give perfect block, I think. Wraith lowers opponents ability Accuracy. And demon just pumps out bleeds. His best synergy is probably antman, increases block proficiency in guard stance.
he works best with Suicides and max Deep Wounds, he has amazing damage without the need to spam specials, dropping the sp3 with his cruelty passives makes him hit even harder.
