It really isn’t though. At all. Metals are seldom the biggest threat in any stage, and sometimes they’re better to stall than to kill quickly, such as in Floor 28.

There is no shortage of non-Uber critical hit units that are effective at the role without being too effective for scenarios which require a tempered approach. Status effect anti-Metal Ubers like Princess Kaguya and Valiant Poseidon are much harder to replace in comparison and have the benefit of decent attack power and being effective against more than just Metals.

Warlock and Pierre is effective against three different, more relevant traits than Metal (as many as two at a time), has very strong stats overall, and possesses the Base Killer ability (first form only) which allows it to cheese certain stages. Paladin on the other hand has an appalling attack range, which in combination with his unremarkable health and embarrassing DPS limits his use entirely to Metals and enemies you don’t need an Uber to deal with. Trying to compare the two is frankly ridiculous.
