Short answer: Igor is a 6-Star, Beast-Afflatus Arcanist who deals Reality damage and works as a DPS unit. Like every Arcanist, Igor hits harder when you respect the Afflatus wheel, so field Igor where the Beast advantage actually lands.
Afflatus and Matchups
Igor uses the Beast Afflatus. That means Igor has the advantage against Plant units and is at a disadvantage into Mineral units. The two element triangles never cross, so plan a small bench around them rather than forcing one team into every stage. The full breakdown lives on the Afflatus system page.
Role and Damage
Igor deals Reality damage and is built for DPS duties. Reality and Mental are the game's two damage types, and matching your carry's damage type to an enemy's weaker defense is a quiet but real power gain. Pair Igor with teammates that cover the roles Igor does not.
Building Igor
Invest in one carry at a time and gear Igor with the best-fitting Psychube you have before spreading materials thin. As a 6-Star Arcanist, Igor is summoned from the gacha, so read the pity system before you spend: a 6-star is guaranteed by 70 pulls and the featured Arcanist is guaranteed within two 6-stars.
