Aki52%- Cleansers and buff-extenders — His pressure leans on the Defense down, resource cut, and Combat Readiness drop landing and lasting; an ally cleanse wipes those debuffs and effects that shorten his applied debuffs cut their window short.
- Effect immunity — A team that protects itself with immunity blocks his Defense down, resource reduction, and Readiness push outright, leaving him with only the raw single-target hit.
- Enemy dispel and buff theft — He needs his own Greater Attack increase to fire the bonus Dual Attack and to power the bomb; stripping or stealing that buff off him collapses his burst back to one ordinary shot.
- Fast openers who act before he sets up — He is single-target with no team-wide control and depends on his stance and an ally kill to ramp; an enemy that moves first and bursts or locks him down denies the rotation before he can strip and shred.

Spirit Eye Celine55%- Buff-stacked frontliners and protected carries — His third skill dispels two buffs from the target before it hits, so heroes who rely on stacked Attack, immunity, or a protective barrier to stay safe get stripped naked right before the strike.
- Mana-hungry and turn-order-dependent enemies — He reduces the target's resource by 60% and knocks their Combat Readiness backward, denying a key skill use and shoving the enemy back in turn order so they lose their tempo.
- High-Defense bruisers — He drops the target's Defense for two turns, and because he ignores Effect Resistance with high Hit Chance, that shred reliably sticks so his Speed-scaled hits cut through tanky targets.
- Wounded or chunked enemies once an ally scores a kill — When any ally finishes off a foe, his passive plants a delayed bomb on the lowest-Health enemy, which buffs Eligos and then detonates to clean up the next-lowest survivor.
