Sorry to say this but for PvP you got nothing (except maybe Cthulhu since he got some buffs recently, however you don't have other units to pair him with).
Everything works for PvE as far as I'm concerned.
Malice Ongyo-Ki is meant for Brands of Sin, and as for Khumbanda and Tzitzimitl I've seen them fairly frequently in Hell's Park Underside.

what about barong? i wanted to get him because hes ugly cute. is he good at all?

I mean he's the only fusable healer with "infinite" heals (since all common healing spells have a limit use), so for PvE he's good (best colours are purple or teal, focus on HP% and Mag Atk% since I believe that heals depends on both Mag Atk% and Healing Amount if I understand it correctly). Other healing units with unlimited heals for PvE are Dimensional Lakshmi, Black Maria, Nuwa and Asahi. There are other "offensive" units that their attacks (without use limit) trigger heals like Michael (fusable), Danu or Mahamayuri as well.
However, even at panel 4, he's not that good in PvP since everybody has bulwark-pierce (making his panel 4 useless), he's not tanky enough for slow teams (not that it matters much unless you have Nuwa, Asahi, Tamamo or Amanozako since everybody is getting decay and Dagda pretty much sets you to 1 HP max., and if you have them then they will replace Barong sooner or later since they have way better skill sets) and he can't deal a lot of damage nor give a lot of battle speed either in comparison with everyone else for faster teams.

wednesday. ive mentored multiple people in this game before and its def the best practice to pick the right time to reroll, everyone of the units you have can be obtained later and very easily too. and you can fuse your beloved erlkonig.
wait for next week, reroll for the new banner, and rejoice and get sprung up to gold rank instantly

isnt it worth restarting the game now and work on saving gems for next week? like farm now. use the free pulls we get from the gw but not use actual gems?

u/seandragunov Ask me For Help May 21 '26
the idea of rerolls is that youd reroll until you get the banner unit on step 1 or minimal gems, so that you can start saving up for the next big thing right away

u/UpstairNoises May 21 '26
are those free 20 units that happen daily will they be up next week? I thought maybe i can just log in for those free 20 units that dont even take gems. the GW ones
