Disputed: S tier at PGG and A tier at BO3.

Safe decision

Build it when these jobs solve a real team gap. Test the complete setup before spending rare rerolls or replacing a proven slot.

Kit interpretation

What Crimson (Brother) does

Marks enemies, triggers delayed explosions and leaves damaging pools. The active channels repeated damage along a selected line.

These are mechanical roles, not a promise that the unit wins every map. Placement, upgrades, target type, allies and stage duration can change the outcome.

Reroll stop rule

Trait direction

Unbound for raw scaling; Draconic if DOT contribution is the priority.

Use the trait odds calculator before committing crystals. A mechanically relevant owned trait can be better account value than chasing a rarer headline trait.

Investment stack

Evolution and equipment checks

Crimson → Crimson (Brother)

  • 20 Red Sprites
  • 20 Pink Sprites
  • 1 Rainbow Sprite
  • 5,000 Gold

One of the lightest recipes and a sensible early damage target when you already own Crimson.

Reported evolved passive: Piercing Crimson targets a point and repeatedly damages enemies while applying Crimson Mark.

Do not assume that absence means “no equipment.” It only means the current 17-item source table has no named exclusive record matched to this unit. Compare live rolls by bottleneck.

Original field protocol

How to test Crimson (Brother) on your account

  1. 1. Freeze the conditions

    Use the same stage, act, party, upgrade, placement, trait and equipment. Record the game date or visible version.

  2. 2. Measure the kit's real job

    Use the same lane and target density, then separate direct hits from delayed explosions and pool uptime before judging the active.

  3. 3. Keep outcomes separate

    Record personal output, team effect, control, economy and clear consistency as separate fields. One blended score hides why a unit worked.

  4. 4. Repeat and label the sample

    Start with at least 10 matched runs when practical, publish the exact count and retain failures. A small sample is useful when it is honestly labeled.

Sources, confidence and deliberate omissions

The core kit is summarized from Nikola Savic's dated 21-unit passive and active ability reference. The tier signal comes only from the site's July 18 comparison of Pro Game Guides and BO3.

This page deliberately omits unsupported base stats, placement costs, banner odds and universal DPS. The live client is stronger evidence for your current version. If a cited mechanic changes, send the page URL, screenshot or official note through the correction channel.

What role does Crimson (Brother) play?

The documented profile supports Damage, DOT jobs and uses a Magical damage classification. The best role depends on which part of the kit your stage and team can activate.

What trait should I use on Crimson (Brother)?

Unbound for raw scaling; Draconic if DOT contribution is the priority. Treat this as a direction and stop rule, not a guarantee that one rare trait is optimal for every account.

Is Crimson (Brother) top tier?

Disputed: S tier at PGG and A tier at BO3. Rankings are dated judgments; matched tests and current balance notes should decide expensive investment.
