Strategy/Usage
Generally, Hades is used as a powerful tank to protect other units, built to be particularly useful on stages that mix traits, which would normally limit the usefulness of multiple tanks. Hades attacks very fast and has short range, although he has slow speed and can nearly never get to the front line on time. His immunities can be situationally helpful, with his Warp Immunity helping you defeat Everlord WanWan and other Starred Aliens, while Toxic Immunity hard-counters a small number of admittedly few and not too hard Gobble/Zollow stages, as well as Papuu's Paradise.
His fast but weak-ish attacks are a very good thing to have, as it means that Hades can get enemies away from him as quickly as possible, but it is a very bad thing when dealing with enemies who have lots of knockbacks, namely Brollow, Rain D, and Gabriel. However, this also increases the amount of time he has to stay at the frontline in order to do his damage, and it's never guaranteed he will survive that long. Other tankers such as Kai have a very strong but slow attack, so they only need to stay alive for a few seconds to do the same damage as Hades does in over 10 seconds. However, beware his high range; he is nearly at the same as a typical Midranger, leaving your Melee units unprotected.
True Form
Almighty Hades gains nothing but two immunities. Immunity to knockback is especially important for a tank, while immunity to slow can also be useful in some cases. Considering how late this True Form can be unlocked, due to the requirement of an Epic Catfruit Seed, it can be seen as a low cost, low reward trade. Immunity to knockback allows Hades to be extremely effective in stages that combine Long Distance attacks with knockback effects, namely Floor 39 of the Heavenly Tower.
Talents
Since Almighty Hades relies on his stats to be useful, going for the extra attack and health is definitely a good idea, if one wishes to boost this unit. A defense Talent Orb can also be given to Hades to make him even tougher against a specific trait, possibly one that there is not a counter for among your cats (excluding Traitless, Aku, and Relic enemies). The anti-Relic Talents are not recommended, as slowing units who are already close to Hades and most likely already hitting him will rarely do anything noticeable, while having literally no effect whatsoever on any of the many Relic enemies who outrange him. Weaken grants marginally better survivability against Relic, but it is far less versatile than a direct health boost, in addition to requiring curse immunity to be unlocked as well, so it is not recommended to unlock this either. Without slow and weaken, curse immunity is worthless, so do not unlock that either. Also note the massive cost of Talents that both unlock a target and an ability.
