Best counters to Angelica
- Buff strip and dispel — Her protection is built on the immunity and barrier she applies; an enemy that dispels those buffs removes the shield and reopens the team to debuffs and burst before her long cooldown comes back up.
- Enemy immunity — Her main offensive pressure is the stun on her staff attack, and a foe already carrying immunity simply ignores it, leaving her with no real damage or control.
- Unhealable debuffs — Her entire value is healing the team off her max Health, so an effect that blocks healing shuts down her core job and lets sustained damage actually stick.
- Cooldown and stance gaps — Her team-wide heal, immunity, and barrier sit on a long cooldown, so a burst team that times its kill window between casts can blow past the protection while it is unavailable, and she brings no passive to cover the gap.

Unbound Knight Arowell62%- Teams that rely on debuffs and damage-over-time to win — Her team-wide skill grants immunity and a barrier for two turns, blocking incoming poisons, burns, and other debuffs before they land, while her max-HP-scaled heals undo the chip damage that does slip through.
- Opening burst and assassins trying to delete a target — The barrier she puts on the whole team absorbs the initial spike, and her max-HP-scaled heals top allies back up, so a single-target nuke or first-turn dive struggles to secure the kill.
- Fragile single-threat enemies she can lock down — Her staff attack has a chance to stun for a turn, denying that enemy its action while her team keeps rolling, which is especially punishing against a lone key carrier.
- Attrition and grind matchups — Because her healing and barrier strength scale with her own max Health rather than attack, a tanky Angelica out-sustains slow damage races, refreshing the team's health and shields turn after turn.
