It regularly takes gunfire and missles also is 20 feet tall roo will be punching his leg in vain if he goes after grabner.
also, if you really want to go that route, dracula/diablo are better mages than cielo, and tick tock clock is -not- favorable to cielo. there is no goddamn room to be going jet speeds, it's tall and cylindical. kerrigan has psionic storm, a wide range attack that destroys battleships. there isn't anywhere for cielo/athos to run. and of course grabner is packing a vulcan, a flamethrower, homing missles, and can launch proximity mines. and fortune can't be hit except by physical attacks and is holding a railgun.
on these terrains, everyone except for cielo and athos are useless for ganon's team, while everyone on dante's team -- 4/5 of which are already better than cielo -- are ready to go and not hindered by the terrain at all. while grabners bullets don't have the casting time magic does, and they have nothing on the destructive level of psistorm, while limiting cielo's greatest attribute: his speed.
