4. 😈 Demon Class and New Class Ren Evaluation: In-depth Analysis of Demon Avenger, Zero, Adele, Ren
- ⚠️ Demon Slayer has ambiguous rice and low stats, so it's not recommended as a sub character. As a main character, memory issues occur when equipping Luposi.
- ⚠️ Demon Avenger's status has declined due to balance patch nerfs. Can be considered as a sub character if you want to cheaply raise a green knife YouChamp, but not recommended as a main character.
- ⚠️ Kaiser is not recommended because its stats are weak, rice is ambiguous, and high potential difficulty is high.
- ⚠️ Zero is theoretically perfect for both main/sub characters, but high stats come from expert control, which is difficult for ordinary people.

5. 🏹 Archer Class Evaluation: Bow Master, Kain Analysis

- ✅ Bow Master is good for YouChamp due to its easy difficulty and strong stats, but it is avoided as a main character due to Karin synergy and not being top-tier stats.
- ⚠️ White Bow has terrible stats and ambiguous rice RPM, so it's not recommended for both main/sub characters.
- ✅ Pathfinder has become worth raising due to continuous buffs, but it's not good as a sub character due to low rice and difficulty, but it's okay as a main character.
