Houzouin is absolutely worse at soloing than Cu. There is so much video evidence proving this. Even before Cu got his NP buff there's a bunch of Challnge Quests Cu has been able to solo that Houzouin hasn't. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIRHGl08pSc This one for example. (This was before Cu's buff)

And since Cu's NP buff the difference is huge. As for team play Houzouin is the most over hyped unit in the game. Yes you can buff stcak with Waver/Skadi and have him double NP and do massive normal card damage... but using supports that powerful will allow just about anyone to do insane damage. Those massive normal card crits come at the cost of doing 0 damage with your NP. Normally Cu or Taiga with equal supports will just NP 2 times and do the same if not more damage with their NPs.

A lot of people see videos of people buff stacking with double Skadi and Waver and see massive crits and think he is a god. forgetting anyone with those supports will butcher.

Houzouin isn't a bad unit I've used him grailed and non grailed a crap load. he is pretty good. has massive holes in what he can solo but sometimes his gimmick is perfect for the boss. As for teamplay he is more of a fun gimmick if you have a bunch of rare supports. He is quite "meh" when it comes to using him with other budget supports. he is very inconsistent and RNG based without units like Skadi and Waver. A grailed Houzouin can toss out masive normal card damage with Skadi, Grailed Cu can toss out 1 million damage NPs. They both work but generally Cu is more flexiable
