Elvira48%- Revive denial — Her standout play is bringing a fallen ally back, so an enemy that blocks revives turns her ultimate into a plain heal and removes the reason to fear killing her carry.
- Buff removal — Her protection is layered buffs — barrier, damage cap, invincibility — and an enemy that strips buffs can peel those off to land the killing hit she was preventing.
- Unhealable effects — Her entire kit pays out in healing scaled to her Health; an enemy that applies an unhealable state shuts that down and lets damage stick.
- Long cooldowns and single-target reach — Her cleanse-revive runs on a five-turn cooldown and her barrier on three, and she can only shield one ally at a time, so wide simultaneous pressure or a fast kill before the skill is ready slips past her — and she is slow, so she often acts after the damage lands.

Lady of the Scales50%Perfumer Byblis43%Unbound Knight Arowell44%- Teams that rely on debuffs and crowd control — Both of her support skills dispel all debuffs from the chosen ally, so she cleans off stuns, silences, defense breaks, and stacked damage-over-time before they can pile up, blunting control- and debuff-heavy comps.
- Burst damage trying to delete a single carry — She heals scaled off her own max Health, drops a barrier with a damage cap for two turns, and can hand out a turn of invincibility, so a protected ally simply refuses to die to an alpha strike.
- Comps that win by securing a kill — Her third skill outright revives a dead ally at full Health and then keeps healing and protecting, so the enemy has to kill the same target twice — and she revives herself once via Spirit Lord's Protection, undoing the assassination they were counting on.
- Slow attrition matchups — Constant team healing on her attack plus single-target restores means she out-sustains grinding poke and damage-over-time, dragging fights long enough for her cooldowns to come back around.
