Kise is a 5-star Ice Thief built around her stealth stance. Her first skill strikes a single enemy and deals 70% more damage when that target is holding a buff, while her second skill hits the whole enemy team and ignores 30% of their Defense, rising to 60% ignored while she is stealthed. Her third skill is a self-setup leap that grants her stealth and an Attack-based barrier for 2 turns, then pushes her own Combat Readiness by 50%, with damage scaling off her current Health; she also shortens enemy buff durations and adds to enemy skill cooldowns. With no passive, she relies on entering stealth to unlock her full defense-penetrating AoE pressure while making herself untargetable.

Counters

  • Buff-stacking teams that pile on damage and survivability buffs — Her first skill deals 70% extra damage to any target carrying a buff, and her kit actively eats away at enemy buffs by shortening their durations, so stacked offensive or defensive buffs become a liability against her.
  • High-Defense walls and bruisers — Her all-enemy scythe ignores 30% of Defense, jumping to 60% ignored while she is stealthed, letting her punch through tanky frontlines that would otherwise blunt physical hitters.
  • Charging enemies relying on a key skill being ready — She extends enemy skill cooldowns, delaying their big plays, and her self Combat Readiness push lets her cycle her own turns faster to keep that pressure rolling.
  • Single-target assassins and snipers trying to delete a backline carry — Her third skill puts her into stealth for 2 turns, making her untargetable by anything except area attacks, so focus-fire pickers cannot reach her.

Countered by

  • Dispellers and buff strippers — Stripping her stealth removes both her untargetable protection and the extra defense penetration it grants, leaving her exposed and hitting far softer; her barrier can also be stripped to drop her survivability.
  • Area-of-effect attackers — Stealth only blocks single-target picks, so any all-enemy hit ignores it entirely and can damage or knock her out while she thinks she is safe.
  • Targets kept free of buffs — Her 70% damage bonus only triggers against buffed enemies, so a clean, buff-light or buff-blocking opponent denies a large chunk of her single-target burst.
  • Stance and rotation timing — She has no passive and must spend her third skill to gain stealth and the Combat Readiness push, so in the window before she sets up, or after her stealth lapses, she is an ordinary squishy Thief with nothing protecting her.
