Just because something has more critical doesn't mean its better by default, and a vanilla 4000/3 that costs 2 Gauge on equip isn't exactly appealing to most players. This one, despite just being a 4000/2, only costs 1 Gauge and combos exceptionally well with the playstyle of Purgatory Knights, meaning you get as much mileage with it as you would with Death Claw for less cost.

Example. Have Demios on the Field, one of the 2 Size 0 Purgatory Knights in the Center, and then either another Size 0 or a Size 1 and this equiped. Clear the opponents center, attack with your monsters, use Demios to destroy the rested Size 0 in the center to restand himself, and also open up an attack with Fatal here, now sitting pretty at 3 crit. And if you used Crossbow Dragon, then you regained the gauge you used to equip Fatal. Combine it with Crush that Body and Support Me and you've gained Gauge.
