Independent analysis
Editorial analysis based on the current guides: Hollow converts Burn applications into Austere Flames and therefore needs another unit to establish Burn consistently. UPD 0.5 sources continue to describe it as a Flame Emperor partner rather than a standalone top unit, so this record keeps it A-tier and preserves the live-verification warning around exact damage classification.
This site analysis interprets the cited snapshot; it is separate from official game information and may change as stronger evidence becomes available.
