the advantage of clearing after the battle phase??

Thats obvious. It alllows you to focus on damaging the fighter without having to focus any attention of the sides.

As for why zeus is worse. Firstly, this kills anything without restrictions which IMO already allows it to out do zeus. Secondly, with rune staff equipped this thing is three gauge in a deck that generates 2 per turn. Thirdly Joker migitates costs he shouldn't be what decides what is good or not. Finally if you analyse this in terms of card advantage it comes out as a +1 assuming you kill 2 and a wash if you kill 1 and zeus doesnt really stand much chance of killing anything to begin with but requires 2 kills to get a plus even with a Joker and rune staff
