Soulvester

Soulvester ranks among the best extractors in the game (tied with Gourdy), boasting 5 stars in both Skill Check and Extraction Speed, plus an additional Heart for survivability. The trade-off, however, is severely limited mobility, with 1 star in both Movement Speed and Stamina, matching Shrimpo's mobility stats. Reckless play carries far greater risk than usual, making caution and patience fundamental to performing well with Soulvester. He works best on teams that include a distractor. This setup lets him leverage his outstanding extraction stats while staying out of harm's way, though his survival depends heavily on the distractor staying alive. His extra Heart provides a valuable safety buffer and makes Health Kits more worthwhile, but faster Twisteds like Twisted Shelly and Twisted Toodles still demand careful awareness. Checking corners and positioning the camera to spot approaching Twisteds while working on Machines is a strong habit to develop. As noted in his Ability description, Soulvester is immune to the ranged attacks of Twisted Goob and Twisted Scraps. This functions essentially as a permanent Cardboard 'Armor' effect. It significantly reduces the threat these Twisteds pose, especially Scraps, who lacks Goob's extended attention span. Be aware, however, that this immunity does not extend to Twisted Gigi's grab attacks, so stay vigilant to protect your Items. Like his sister Connie, Soulvester gains additional advantages during Floor Events. He produces light during Blackouts and is immune to the Illness III, Slow I, and Ichor Stains inflicted by Ichor Leaks. This makes him a strong choice when Floor Events are giving your team trouble. Players already experienced with Connie's similarly poor Movement Speed may find transitioning to Soulvester relatively smooth, since the movement limitations are familiar. Soulvester offers bonuses that Connie does not, including maximum extraction capability, an extra Heart, and ranged attack immunity. However, he sacrifices considerable survivability compared to Connie, having 2 fewer stars in both Stamina and Stealth and no invisibility Ability, so remain mindful of these limitations. His low mobility makes spawning Twisted Dyle a risky proposition. Managing Twisted Dyle alongside the Common Twisteds that accompany him is extremely challenging with Soulvester's poor speed. The extra Heart offers no protection against Twisted Dyle's instant-kill attacks, and his ranged attack immunity is irrelevant since all ranged Twisteds are Rare tier. That said, his maximum extraction can accelerate the Floor's completion, making him a potential asset if he focuses on nearby Machines while faster or stealthier teammates spread out. Completing Dyle's Floor rewards much-needed Stamina. Overall, Soulvester is a solid Toon choice, though reaching higher Floors consistently requires significant support from teammates. If raw extraction power is your primary goal, Gourdy may be the more practical pick.
