Why Explosive Demon is S-Tier
The Primed mechanic creates a “hit once, explode on second hit” loop that doubles effective AoE damage in high-density enemy scenarios. The Hidden Spy passive adds wave-clearing insurance every 5 waves. At 7,429 DPS at max level with full range coverage, Explosive Demon is one of the most cost-efficient DPS units relative to its Mythic rarity.
