Why Wind Walker ranks where it does
Wind Walker has no single standout axis; the value is in filling gaps rather than leading a lineup.
It comes at a cost to your own side, so Wind Walker wants a partner that heals or absorbs to pay it back.

Wind Walker supplies the combat-skill casts; Al-Hawra's Desert Phantom feeds on them. No lineup around this pair clears the era and composition gates.

B Wind Walker · Alfred · Jane developer pick Mid progression Beats 1 of 8 reference lineups 48.55/100 out of 100 Wind Walker (X01), Alfred (S01) and Jane (S03) score 48.55 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.
Wind Walker is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Kick their !@$%! applies Taunt for 2 rounds on a 50% roll, and takes the front on purpose: this kit feeds on being attacked, and the front is where the attacks are. Alfred brings a second damage line worth 33% of the expected output, so no single silence stops the plan: Lethal Blade puts 492% into all enemy squads on a 30% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Jane is the win condition, bringing 42% of the lineup's expected damage: Light's Judgement puts 334.5% into all enemy squads on a 35% roll, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-5 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because Wind Walker’s Kick their !@$%! applies Taunt and takes a squad out of the fight for 2 rounds, so Jane swings into a line that cannot answer; Alfred shuts off enemy recovery, so what Jane deals stays dealt. What you give up: no hero here feeds another one's trigger; Jane (S03) is the era weak point -- the enemy will aim at the oldest squad. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. This is one of the lineups recommended in-game by the developers -- the score above is what that classic core is still worth against the current roster.
