Best counters to Celestial Mercedes
- Cleanse and debuff removal — Her main threat is the Unhealable mark; any ally cleanse, immediate buff/debuff scrub, or effect that shortens debuff duration wipes it off before it matters, and the healing she was trying to block resumes.
- Debuff immunity — Enemies who enter with immunity simply ignore the Unhealable application, so her whole anti-heal plan whiffs against pre-buffed or immunity-granting teams.
- Slow speed and long cooldowns — She is slow-tempo and her two AoE hits sit on four- and six-turn cooldowns; faster teams move first, and once her ultimate is spent she leans on basic attacks while it recharges.
- Single-target, chance-based shutdown — The Unhealable debuff only lands on one enemy and only on a chance, so a focused healer can be missed entirely, and with no passive she has no fallback when the proc fails.

- Revive and sustain-stall comps — By choking off the recovery those defensive teams depend on, she punishes attrition and stall setups that expect to out-heal incoming damage, turning a grind war in her favor.
- Bulky high-Health frontlines — Dimensional Rupture deals damage proportional to each enemy's max Health, so beefy tanks and big-HP walls that shrug off normal hits take heavy, percentage-based punishment from her.
- Whole enemy teams at once — Both her cooldown skills strike all enemies, and Finale feeds her own Combat Readiness off critical hits, letting her chain back into another team-wide hit and apply broad pressure quickly.
