Overall

Shadow Monarch

Sung Jinwoo is a self-scaling assassin who levels up during battle. On a timer and on every kill, he gains a permanent level-up that fully restores his health and energy while stacking multiplicative boosts to attack, defense, and max health — shared partially with Cha Hae-in when paired together. He teleports behind the highest-damage enemy to deliver a triple strike that shreds their crit defenses with the Exposed debuff, then becomes untargetable. His ultimate freezes all enemies in place while stripping their dodge, setting up guaranteed hits for his entire team. Debuffs barely stick to him — they're instantly cleansed, each cleanse restores health, and debuff sources eat a guaranteed crit shortly after. His attacks apply a persistent poison that intensifies with each level-up, and poisoned enemies hit with Exposed hemorrhage energy. After each level-up, he automatically recasts his assassination combo for free.
