Demon is the newest race to the game as of Round 50, replacing Nox. They are efficient explorers and attackers with a twist. Great power must come with drawbacks, after all, and the Demon Racial Spell embodies this strongly, and the requirement to keep 10 % Swamp when it's not the land type their Homes are on can be limiting.

Fast attacking Demons have focused on mostly using a Spec OP / Elite DP mix with a handful of the opposite units, plus using Temples to boost their Swamp to 10 %.

The elite DP also helps get you extra spies if some are captured taking your ops, but don't expect that to fund your entire intelligence community. Between this and the 10 % Swamp requirement, they are popular to use for Ops gathering.
