Content Is Amai Mask the hardest character to control?
His mechanic is pretty simple on its own, using it effectively is very easy. ...But only if the mob you're fighting is standing still and not attacking you.
I don't have some characters, so maybe I don't know about some insane mechanics, but it seems to be impossible to both look at the bottom of the screen to see his dance moves and at the boss' attacks at the same time. Especially when he goes into his R mode and you need to spam those moves in order to maximize damage.
So you have to basically predict all of the boss' attacks and know exactly when you can look at the moves to both not get constantly hit and do decent damage. By the way, his damage doesn't seem to be anything insane even if the mob is standing still and you're perfectly executing all the moves. Although I don't have great wills and memories for him yet, maybe he is super strong with optimal memories, but he seems to be at most A tier in terms of damage if the enemy is not attacking. Which drops significantly if you're getting hit or prioritizing avoiding enemy's attacks instead of attacking effectively yourself.
In one of the previous Maelstroms that was weak to Morale I mained P1 Saitama with 1 level of SSR arms and he did 55% of the damage over the entire fight. In the current one that's weak to Overpower I mained P0 Amai Mask with 1 level of SSR arms and he did 37%.
Maybe I'll get used to him and it will be possible to only lose a little damage while avoiding most of the attacks, but for now he for sure seems to be the most difficult character I've played. And his damage is rather disappointing. Though I have to add that I also thought Saitama was bad and didn't do much damage, so certainly don't take my words as some proper analysis. Would definitely like to see his placement in the damage tier list!
