Unbound Knight Arowell53%- Cleansers — Her pressure leans on the stun and Defense break landing; an ally cleanser simply wipes those debuffs off the affected enemies, removing her control and softening.
- Enemy dispellers — Her own stealth is what boosts her stun chance and keeps her safe from single-target hits; an enemy that strips that stealth buff leaves her exposed and far less reliable at landing control.
- Effect-immunity providers — A team starting under immunity blocks her stun and Defense break outright, so even with her resistance-ignoring strip the debuff half of her kit fails to apply.
- Long cooldowns and passive gating — Her area dispel sits on a multi-turn cooldown and her big readiness-pushback payoff only fires after a windup that can trigger once every few turns, so a fast burst team can race her before that loop comes online.

Hecate56%

Lionheart Cermia51%
Designer Lilibet51%- Buff-stacking teams that need their stacks to function — Her area attack strips two buffs from every enemy each time, and ignores Effect Resistance, so it reliably tears down stacked immortality, barriers, attack and crit buffs before they can pay off.
- Slow chargers and turn-order setups — Her primed passive pushes every enemy's turn meter back by 50% and her opening tools hit hard early, denying tempo to teams that rely on getting the first move or building up readiness.
- Squishy backline threats — Her single-target bubble can stun for a turn and that chance jumps by 25% while she is stealthed, letting her lock down a key target, while her Defense break softens the whole enemy team for follow-up damage.
- Effect-resistance and tanky defensive comps — She ignores Effect Resistance on her area skill and applies a Defense break, so high-resist or heavily-armored teams cannot shrug off her control or stop her from shredding their durability.
