Unlike most other Ravagers we've seen so far who mostly uses bruteforce to achieve its destruction, Asat is known for destroying civilisations through degrading his enemies pyschological through endless torment behind the scenes.

I read thru his lore and its stated he acts more like a "chessmaster" or like someone observing an ant colony.

>Calm and composed, he prefers to study and research the civilizations he attacks, commanding his invasion forces with the utmost care, strategically ordering them to advance slowly and overwhelm the enemy, denying them any chance of resistance.

>In the case of the Ogul Ring, Asat spent a hundred years ordering his Voidrangers to slowly advance so that the front line formed a single sentence: "Destruction is where laughter ends. It is mourning, not celebration." It is believed that he is the destroyer of the Elation, and it does not seem as though he has any intention of denying it. Upon the surface of each dead planet, he imprints a gigantic smiling face, as if laughing at the passing of all that has existed

sounds fuckin terrifying icl, and very fitting with the theme of Elation. Bro is a literal ragebaiter, but the consequence of falling for the bait is literally utter annihilation of literal civilisations and planets.

The worse thing is, he's already been showing how he employs his own form of Destruction on Planarcadia already. He already knew about Fulwish's suffering from the Herald of Death (he could've even been behind this) and knew how the media used this to trap her in an irl Truman show to profit and use her suffering to their benefit.

He probably sent her that Fool's Mask as the last straw as a pyschological attack to push her suffering over the edge for her to enact her revenge plan on the world, to send the arcadia into chaos which played right into Asat's cards as it allowed him to introduce Shuhu into Planarciada through her actions.

You can also see him taunting with SW in the latest patch, literally ragebaiting her for the hell of it lmao.

So yeah, I hope HSR writes him as well as their other villains so far, and I hope they lean more into his aspect of achieving destruction through pyschological torment, as it would be really fitting for Planarcadia and Elation as a whole.
