Need A Sniper? Roll For Schwarz!

While Schwarz is a ★6 Operator, her range and attack speed make her more of a situational Operator. However, she can debuff heavily armored enemy units and is a must-have when playing in levels filled with high DEF enemies.
Check Out Schwarz's Stats & Skills Here!![]() | Although not a good fit as a member of your main team, Schwarz still boasts an undeniably high damage potential. Getting her now is recommended as she might prove to be useful in the upcoming updates or events. |

Blue Poison & Glaucus Are Great Too!
Both Blue Poison and Glaucus have kits that can help your team easily clear levels. Glaucus specializes in taking down enemy drones while buffing up yours, and Blue Poison can whittle down enemy numbers with ease through her poison attacks. Both can easily be slotted into your main team depending on your style of play.
![]() | If you don't own both, consider rolling with this banner as the first 10 rolls guarantees a ★5, giving you a much larger chance of getting either one! |
