Cassius - Pros and Cons

Increases Hand Cycling

Cassius has many Cards that let him draw, allowing him to increase his hand cycling rate.

Build a Consistent Deck

By using his draw and card swapping abilities, you can build a stable deck that is less prone to a Bad Opening Hand. Since he often consumes AP, he has good synergy with Combatants that have AP recovery Cards.

Difficult to Use

Cassius is a Combatant that is somewhat difficult to use, as playing him requires an understanding of Card composition and how to play the deck. To maximize his performance, you will need to carefully adjust your save data and deck construction.

Arwen	- Increases HP and Heal amount - Reduces damage based on the number of enemies in an Anticipated Action state - Ego Skill provides Heal + damage reduction
Alyssa	- Increases defense - Recover HP at the end of battle - Heal + gain Morale with Ego Skill
