The failures of the previous teams were expected.
Lucifer and Jin had overwhelming individual strength, but their styles clashed too much—Lucifer, a relentless force, needed a partner who could match his tempo. Jin, a necromancer, fought methodically, wielding both his twin blades and the dead. They weren't actively working against each other, but neither were they fully in sync. They landed some solid hits but couldn't capitalize on them, allowing the six-star beast to recover again and again.
Ren and Ian were worse. Ren fought like he was the only one on the battlefield. Ian, disciplined and strategic, tried to cover him, but Ren refused to acknowledge him as an equal. It was a disjointed effort, two warriors with terrifying techniques but no cohesion. Their defeat wasn't from a lack of skill but from sheer arrogance.
And then there was Rachel and Cecilia.
