Cermia

Cermia is a Fire Warrior single-target assassin who chains hard-hitting strikes onto one priority target. Her basic flaming-sword attack can inflict Unhealable for one turn, shutting off the enemy's recovery, while her ultimate All-In! penetrates 50% of the target's Defense for heavy damage. Her key trick is Hot Streak!, a non-attacking skill that instantly resets All-In!'s cooldown and grants an extra turn, letting her fire two big nukes back to back. She also brings an attack boost and a barrier to support her own burst, but everything she does is aimed at a single enemy rather than the whole team.

Counters

• Healers and sustain-reliant defenders — Her flaming-sword strike can stamp Unhealable on the target, blocking all health recovery for a turn, so enemies who rely on staying topped up cannot heal through her burst.
• Lifesteal and self-sustain bruisers — With Unhealable applied, drain and leech effects stop refilling the target's health, letting her chip a sustain bruiser down faster than it can recover.
• High-Defense tanks and walls — All-In! ignores 50% of the target's Defense, so bulky frontliners that normally shrug off hits take far heavier damage from her ultimate.
• Single high-value threats — Hot Streak! resets All-In! and hands her an extra turn, so she can land two penetrating nukes in quick succession to delete one priority enemy before it acts.

Countered by

• Cleanse and dispel — Her Unhealable lasts only one turn and can be removed; an ally cleanse or dispel wipes it off, restoring healing and undoing her main shut-off effect.
• Immunity buffs — Pre-applied immunity simply blocks the Unhealable debuff from landing, so the target keeps healing right through her attacks.
• Buff steal and buff-duration reduction — She has no self-buffs to protect her single-target burst, so denying or surviving her Hot Streak reset window is what blunts her rather than buff control.
• Cooldown lockout and burst windows — All-In! and Hot Streak! both sit on five-turn cooldowns, and she hits only one enemy; once Hot Streak! is spent she has no follow-up reset, so weathering or interrupting that one burst window blunts her for several turns.
