Cardiel is a Void Legendary from the Sacred Order faction, added in patch 3.30 (February 2021) as part of the Valentine's fusion event, linked thematically to the Demonspawn champion Sicia Flametongue in a classic angels-and-demons pairing. His thesis: a premier all-around support who buffs, cleanses, revives, and joins ally attacks, making him valuable in nearly every game mode.
Core Strengths & Abilities
Team Nuke with Crit Buffs: His A3, Heavenly Host, places a 30% Increase C.RATE and 30% Increase C.DMG buff on all allies for 2 turns, then teams up with all allies to strike a target enemy; the cooldown drops to 4 turns booked and reduces further by 1 if the attack kills an enemy.
Cleanse and Revive Insurance: His A2, Angelsong, removes all debuffs from allies and then places an unremovable Revive on Death buff plus Block Debuffs for 2 turns, on a 3-turn cooldown once booked, giving his team a powerful safety net.
Passive Team-Up and Faction Defense: Fiend Warden grants allies 20% reduced damage from Demonspawn, Undead Hordes, and Knight Revenant champions, and gives Cardiel a chance to join an ally's attack whenever they act (always triggering for Sicia Flametongue specifically), extending his action economy.
Key Weaknesses
Team-Up Chance Isn't Guaranteed: Outside of the Sicia synergy, his passive team-up trigger is chance-based rather than guaranteed, so his extra damage contribution varies without that specific partner.
Long Base Cooldowns: His most impactful abilities (A2 and A3) start with high base cooldowns of 4 and 6 turns respectively, meaning he needs skill books to reach his full potential quickly.
With top ratings across Clan Boss, Hydra, Dragon, Fire Knight, and Amius (all 9-10), Cardiel is a premier all-content support who excels in nearly every major game mode.
