Strategy/Usage

Ken may appear to be desirable at first glance, as he sports the Strong ability, knockback against three traits and Omni Strike. However, this all fades away once we recognize his one defining flaw: Range. Ken's range is embarrassingly short, and his DPS is low enough that it'd be more suited to a ranger, due to his short range, Ken can be easily defeated by Angel and Floating enemies, with his only real useful target being Red enemies.

Unfortunately, even there, he faces trouble- where Red enemies lack range, they make up for with offensive power. Ken lacks the stats to tank or actively push against these enemies throughout mid and late-game Stories of Legend and Uncanny Legends, which is truly unfortunate. Overall, Ken is usable and most ideal throughout Empire of Cats and Into the Future, but lacks elsewhere as a fighter, as he does not have enough survivability or deal enough damage to contribute anything of real importance.
