Legault’s weapon, Hurricane Dagger, allows him to do one thing well: hit buffed enemies for high damage. The skills in this kit are chosen to allow him to hit hard, have high Spd in order to follow-up and gain Hurricane Dagger’s damage reduction, and survive to follow-up.
The Special is flexible. If Legault is receiving Pulses from a source like Time’s Pulse or Infantry Pulse, he may be able to precharge a Special to activate immediately on his first attack. The ideal special depends entirely on the number of Pulses. If he is not receiving Pulses, a 2-cooldown Special is ideal so he can activate it on his second attack if he gets countered. Time’s Pulse could also be used with a 3-cooldown Special to the same end, or his seal or A skill could be exchanged for Flashing Blade and he could use the powerful Lethality to pierce enemy damage reduction. However, this is easily shut down by enemy effects that slow Special charge, such as Guard or Crafty Fighter.
+Atk and +Spd are both great boons; Legault wants all the power he can get, but he also depends on his Spd to follow-up against faster opponents and to get his damage reduction against middling-speed ones. -Res is generally the best bane, as most foes that can counter Legault will hit his Def.
The A skill should boost Legault’s damage while either increasing his survivability or Speed. Sturdy Impact is a solid option that boosts his Atk by 6, Def by 10, and prevents an enemy follow-up attack when Legault initiates combat. Any Atk and Spd boosting A skill also works well, such as Swift Sparrow 3 or Life and Death.
Null Follow-Up is a good choice of B skill since many tanks are significantly slower than Legault but use abilities that block follow-ups, like Maltet (+Eff). If Legault hits twice, he’s generally doing twice as much damage or more.
The C skill is highly flexible. If Legault can activate Joint Drive Atk when he initiates combat, he boosts his own Atk by an additional 4. Fatal Smoke is useful against tanks that will heal by counterattacking Legault. Many other C skills can also work well depending on what the player has available.
The seal is flexible, with Blade Session generally offering the largest potential boost to Atk and Spd on a seal.

Strengths

Hurricane Dagger

Legault’s unique weapon, Hurricane Dagger (+Eff), offers multiple abilities including extra damage based on his foe’s buffs in combat, similar to The Cleaner+, a buff to Legault’s Atk and Spd, and up to 30% damage reduction if Legault is faster than his opponent.

Colorless Dagger Infantry

Legault’s status as a dagger-wielding infantry allows him to use good skills like Null Follow-Up and Time’s Pulse. Because he is colorless, he has neutral matchups across the weapon triangle, with the exception of units using weapons like Blarraven+ or Ethereal Breath.

Great Spd

Legault’s base 38 Spd is still high by modern standards and allows him to follow-up attack and get Hurricane Dagger’s damage reduction in combat against many units.

3-4 Star Availability

Legault’s availability from the normal summoning pool at 3-4 star rarity means that players have a generally easier time summoning him than many other heroes, and may have copies in their barracks already. This makes him easier to merge compared to 5 star exclusives, in general.

Weaknesses

Low Atk

Legault’s base 31 Atk is rather low, meaning he will struggle to do damage to foes with high Def. While Hurricane Dagger adds a lot of damage if his foe is buffed, he will struggle to do damage against many unbuffed enemies.

Average HP, Def, Low Res

Legault’s base 39 HP is mediocre, his base 24 Def is somewhat low, and his base 19 Res is quite low. He will generally take significant damage from any attack he is hit by. While Hurricane Dagger reduces the damage by up to 30%, this relies on Legault being faster than his foe by 10 points to get the full 30%, and some extremely strong attacks may oneshot him through the damage reduction as well.

Competition

There are many other colorless dagger infantry with fantastic effects that Legault does not have, such as Yuri, Ascended Joshua, and Leila, as well as many other units of a different weapon or movement type that can perform a similar role as a strong player phase attacker. While Legault’s combination of damage reduction on a dagger and damage that scales with enemy buffs is currently unique to him at the time of writing, it may not be enough to make him worth using over some of these other units.
