Overall
Dice generally will cap his HP and Strength, along with average Skill, Luck, and Speed to boot. The only setback are his defenses: with a growth rate of 15%, Dice is likely to get low Defense, making him de facto a glass cannon. Regardless, he is still useful unit to have if Barst, Bord, or Cord were not properly trained or died. Should one seek to reclass Dice, Pirate/Berserker is recommended.
If the reclass sets have been merged, Dice's strangely high Resistance growth can be beneficial as a Dracoknight.

Gambling Sellsword
"After the war, Dice received an outrageous reward from Prince Marth. He soon spent all of it gambling, however."
Notes
- Dice is one of the few characters to have higher growth rates in the original SNES game than in New Mystery of the Emblem. In particular, Dice's Luck and Defense growths are much lower in the DS remake.
- Dice's love of gambling is reflected by his choice of weapon, the Luck-based Devil Axe.
