  • Cleanse — Her control hinges on the single-target stun and the Defense break; an ally cleanse wipes those off before she can capitalize, neutralizing her setup.
  • Effect immunity — A pre-applied immunity buff blocks her stun and Defense reduction outright, leaving her with only raw critical hits and no lasting control.
  • Draining her Focus, then striking — Her full evasion only holds while she has at least one Focus; once Dual Attacks and her own-turn attack drain it to zero, her dodge halves and she becomes far easier to hit and burst.
  • Bursting before her control comes online — Her Defense break sits on a 5-turn cooldown and her stun is only a chance, so fast nukers who kill her or her carry early get ahead of her control and chip damage.

  • Counterattack and reflect bruisers — Her own-turn area attack does not trigger Dual Attacks or counterattacks, so heavy counterattack walls cannot punish her when she fires it.
  • Hard-to-debuff, high-resistance targets — Her cooldown skill ignores Effect Resistance while applying a 2-turn Defense break, so even high-resistance enemies reliably take the shred that sets up follow-up damage.
  • Single big threats she can lock down — Her gun shot always lands as a critical and carries a chance to stun for one turn, letting her pin a key enemy while her guaranteed crits dig into it.
  • Slow or tempo-reliant teams — Starting with 3 Focus she chains ally-triggered Dual Attacks while pushing her own Combat Readiness, and her cooldown adds another 20 percent self-push, so she grabs extra turns ahead of slower lineups.
