Thanks to his ability to escape 99% of combos from behind, constant invincible framing with his love affair with [[Shadow Step]] and ability to siphon HP from you, Edan is the most resilient of the Monster Trio ([[Lord of Pain Valak|Valak]], [[Blood Colonel Edan|Edan]] and [[Code Q-Proto 00|Q-PROTO_00]]). He can also be considered the most punishing thanks to his permanent Bloody Accel buff: just one combo, or even hit, from Edan will significantly impede your movement capabilities due to the [[Status Effects#Bleeding|Bleed]] debuff. Thus, one combo from Edan easily leads to another, as you can expect him to constantly pursue and chase you with his Shadow Strafe, which has no chance of knockdown. Fighting Edan can be an extremely frustrating affair in this manner, leaving you with no chance of escape, or even effective counters, as the loss of dashing removes most characters' faster clashes. Staying clear of Edan for long is not an option either: like all members of the Monster Trio, he is capable of Roaring if you stay out of his field of vision for too long, exerting significant pressure on you to stay in the game lest Edan turn the tables with one shout. | Thanks to his ability to escape 99% of combos from behind, constant invincible framing with his love affair with [[Shadow Step]] and ability to siphon HP from you, Edan is the most resilient of the Monster Trio ([[Lord of Pain Valak|Valak]], [[Blood Colonel Edan|Edan]] and [[Code: Q-Proto 00|Q-PROTO_00]]).

Of all three members of the Monster Trio, Edan has the longest combos, and is not very apt to knock you down. However, Edan also has the weakest combo hits, relying on repeated combos to take your HP down rather than any one single combo like Q-PROTO_00 or Valak. However, he does this very effectively thanks to his [[Bloody Accel]] passive, which causes Bleed whenever he hits you, drastically increasing chances of him getting more combos off you after he's concluded his first. To null this advantage, it is very important for you to wait for the Bleed debuff to wear off before attempting to engaging Edan again - it takes 5 seconds for Edan's Bleed to wear off. If you are knocked down, maximize your knockdown time by staying still and rolling away from Edan at the very last moment. After getting up, immediately get out of Edan's hit radius. Aisha has this easy thanks to teleport, but the other characters can also compensate by maximizing their air-time strategically, as Edan has a lower chance of knocking you into another combo if you are airborne. | Of all three members of the Monster Trio, Edan has the longest combos, and is not very apt to knock you down.
