Elvira54%- Cleanse and immunity — Her control hinges on Silence, Blind, and Defense Down landing; a cleanser or pre-applied immunity wipes those debuffs and reduces her to a weak single-target poke.
- Dispel — Much of her value is the team heal and the support effects she stacks, all of which can be stripped away before they matter.
- Unhealable / anti-heal pressure — Her passive's max-HP team heal is a core part of her sustain; blocking healing removes that payoff and leaves her allies exposed.
- Passive that never fires — Her strongest effect only activates when an ally is counterattacked and only once per turn, so enemies who don't counter (or who burst her down first) keep her best skill offline; she also has no guaranteed Silence and her AoE sits on a cooldown.

Aki52%- Buff-stacking and shield-reliant teams — Both her passive and her cooldown skill shave time off enemy buffs (2 turns and 1 turn), so stacked attack, immunity, and barrier setups are peeled away before they pay off.
- Fast openers and turn-one cleavers — Silencing a key threat lets her drop their Combat Readiness by 20%, and her passive pushes her own readiness, so she steals back the tempo a fast aggressor was counting on.
- Skill-dependent control units — Her Silence shuts off an enemy's active skills for a turn, neutering setup heroes, dispellers, and big-button nukers who need their skill to function.
- Soulburn-hungry and accuracy-reliant attackers — She strips 10 Soul to starve soulburn finishers, and her Blind makes enemy attacks miss while her Defense Down softens them for her team.
