Given the above analysis, Dark is an excellent first choice for an attribute % to sphere on Jizai. Ill Gills are the primary reasoning behind utilizing not just Jizai, but Twin Swords as a whole.

	A good second choice would be either Machine or Native. Deciding between these ultimately comes down to preference; however, Machine has more use case evidence as alternative options for Sinows are somewhat higher risks. For instance, attempting to use Dark Flow on a spawning Sinow Berill can prove fatal when it partially misses. The Sinow may flinch and immediately punch the player, or warp and cast {{Rafoie}}. When attempting to do the same on a Gibbon, partially missing is not ~~the end of the world~~. The Gibbon will likely get hit by at least one wave and won't attack immediately, allowing for a follow-up with another option. It also only takes three waves of a fully sphered Dark Flow to connect and kill an Ul Gibbon.		A good second choice would be either Machine or Native.

	Even if an Ill Gill ''is'' ~~[[Freeze (status)\|~~frozen]], Jizai is still a consistent choice, as Ill Gills may sometimes enter animation states in which they will be immune to the special attack of {{Sword\|rare\|Dark Flow}} (and remain as such for the duration of the freeze). Reacting to this and swapping to Jizai solves this problem, as it has no such targeting issue and will combo-kill an Ill Gill before the freeze status ends. While the same result can be achieved with {{Sword\|rare\|Vjaya}} or {{Sword\|rare\|Excalibur}}, Jizai requires neither [[Meseta]] nor [[Weapons#Sacrificial damage increase\|Berserk]] to accomplish this, cementing itself as an excellent low-cost option in this scenario.
