The recommended agents for this W-Engine are arranged from most to least recommended.

Unlike most Attack W-Engines that can work with almost any Attack Agent, Steel Cushion works best with Physical Attack units. Being Nekomata's signature weapon, this W-Engine fits her best.

However, Billy and Corin can also take advantage of Steel Cushion. If you can manage to hit targets from behind, you can fully maximize its effects!
