Overall
Klein is a typical pre-promoted unit with lower base stats than if a non pre-promote was trained. However, in Hard Mode, his stats will start out higher, giving him a little more consistency. A Hard Mode Klein will have higher Luck and Resistance than Wolt, but lower HP and Skill. In Normal Mode, Klein's stats will be lower than Igrene's, the other pre-promote sniper, except in luck; however, Klein has some good supports that grow at a quicker pace than Igrene's (in Hard Mode, their stats will be the same, except Klein having much higher luck). Klein has fairly high growths for a pre-promote, and combined with his stat boost in Hard Mode and high weapon rank he will be competent throughout the entire game. He may be a more favorable bow user than Wolt and Dorothy since his bases are less problematic to deal with, and he is slightly better than Igrene thanks to his higher growths and earlier join time. He is very good at slaying flying units since he tends to kill them in one hit with a Silver Bow. Klein has many supports that can fix his low defense, as well as a few that can increase his avoid.
