Independent analysis
Editorial analysis based on the current guides: Ramen Guy's value comes from additional Yen rather than direct damage, allowing carries to reach costly upgrades several waves sooner. UPD 0.5 ranking pages focus mostly on DPS and support Mythics, so this record keeps Ramen Guy's S value scoped to long modes rather than presenting it as a universal combat pick.
