Synergy
Demon Hybrid has strong synergy with Demon Leader (Control) via the “One True Love” passive, which triggers follow-up attacks when Chained. Running both units from Chainsaw Man together significantly increases total team DPS.
Why Demon Hybrid is S-Tier
The Perpetual Motion Machine meter provides a potential 100% damage boost, and the Bleed-stack removal mechanic creates burst damage windows. Combined with Demon Leader synergy and the Going Wild follow-up bonus, Demon Hybrid scales exceptionally well in long Infinite Mode runs where its meter stays charged through sustained combat.
