Unbound Knight Arowell62%- Enemy Immunity going up first — If foes enter her turn under Immunity, the Miss Chance Up and Defense Down from End of Evil are blocked outright, leaving her with only the one-time dispel and reducing her to plain area damage.
- Cleansers and re-buffers — A teammate who cleanses or instantly re-applies buffs after her area skill resets what she just stripped, and since both her control skills sit on long cooldowns she can't immediately strip again.
- Long cooldown windows — Her dispel, cooldown push, and self Combat Readiness all live on her two 5-turn skills; once they're spent she falls back to a single-target basic, so racing her or surviving the opener leaves her with little follow-up.
- Outspeeding her opener — She wants to act first to strip buffs and delay the enemy before they set up; a faster team that buffs, bursts, or locks her down before her turn denies the entire pre-emptive plan her kit is built around.

Lethe56%- Buff-stacked and shielded teams — End of Evil dispels all buffs off the entire enemy team before it deals damage, peeling away barriers, attack and defense boosts, and other layered buffs so the rest of her hits and her allies land clean.
- Counterattack and invincibility/immortal walls — Her area nuke cannot be counterattacked, so it pokes counter-reliant tanks safely, and by stripping invincibility, damage reduction, and undying buffs first she removes the protection those defensive units lean on.
- Cooldown-dependent threats — Wave of Light adds a full turn to every enemy's skill cooldowns, stalling revives, big-hit ultimates, and recovery skills; because it raises cooldowns rather than applying a debuff, it can't simply be cleansed off.
- Dodge and tanky bruisers — Her chase debuffs lower enemy Defense and pile on Miss Chance Up, and her basic scythe ignores a fifth of the target's Defense, so high-defense or evasion-leaning enemies still take meaningful damage and whiff their own attacks.
