Role
Circle of Shadow Sub-Zero is a team-scaling attacker who gains damage and power gain from Circle of Shadow membership. His selection is most coherent when the lineup is already committed to that team.
Strengths
The same team-building choice improves his own offense and gives Circle of Shadow allies lethal-blow potential. This supports a lineup with multiple fighters contributing attacks rather than one isolated carry.
Weaknesses
Replacing eligible teammates with unrelated fighters reduces his personal scaling. The team's lethal blows remain chance-based and should not be assumed for one decisive hit.
Best teams
Circle of Shadow allies directly build his passive; Quan Chi can add that team's offensive vampirism. Choose the remaining slot for the control or damage the particular fight needs.
Where to use
Use him in a developed Circle of Shadow composition where both damage and power gain are useful. He offers less distinct support when included as a lone representative in a mixed team.
