Best counters to Cermia

  • 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.

What Cermia 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.
