{{Transient icon|Marchosias}}' application of {{Status|en name=Tenacity}}, {{Status|en name=Protection}}, {{Status|en name=Curse}}, and {{Status|en name=Blessing}} are shown in the image to the right. Notably, Marchosias has very consistent procs aside from [[Knightly One]] and generally prefers staying in the front line and having his allies in the row behind him, although they can also be horizontally adjacent to him as well. It's important to note that Marchosias will not apply Blessing or Protection to himself, so he will need an external source of healing to hold out for longer battles. Likewise, the range of his Curse is limited to the row in front of him, so the biggest threat to Marchosias will be enemies who exist outside his range that can deal lots of damage.
 
As a defensive support, Marchosias has been blessed with extra horizontal movement which is a great niche to have. Aside from {{Transient icon|Sitri}}, there are other units who have this same combination in role/ability such as {{Transient icon|Seth|variant=Beachside}}, {{Transient icon|Tangaroa|variant=Canaan}}, and effectively {{Transient icon|Tanngrisnir|rarity=5}}, so the fact that Marchosias does the same task at a low cost makes him very appealing. As one may already be aware, extra horizontal movement is a very special ability because it allows one to regroup units in wide maps in one turn if RNG is in one's favor. As a defensive support on top of this, it makes stray high damage during that first turn also manageable. Past that, this skill allows for easier repositioning of units and makes diagonal movements completely unnecessary. Finally, having a larger reach also opens up more strategies in engaging with enemies.
