Alexei Pros and Strength
Unkillable Bruiser
Alexei's Trait affords him 1 turn of immortality whenever his hp is reduced to 0. This ability cannot be dispelled, and effectively allows Alexei to safely tank any attack in the entire game, as long as this ability is off cooldown.
Tips! | Once you've upgraded Alexei to ★5, his 1 turn of immortality becomes 2 turns of immortality. This affords Alexei more time on the battlefield, and gives you 1 extra turn to heal him before his immortality wears off. If you plan on playing Alexei, we highly suggest pushing him to ★5. |

Berserker Playstyle
Alexei's Trait coupled with the skills RK 1 [Fight to the Death] and RK 7 [Goredrinker] means Alexei is most comfortable when he is surrounded by enemies and taking damage. Try to position your Alexei in such a way that your allies are close enough to punish any enemies who are focusing on him.
Strike Back Specialist
As a frontliner, Alexei excels at taking attacks and dealing them back to the attackers. RK 11 [Counterattack Storm] combined with RK 5 [Brutebear Counter] and either [Curse] or [Wild Howl] allows Alexei to debuff and damage enemies as he is tanking their attacks.

At 3-stars, Alexei gains the [Fortitude] effect, which makes him immune to the effects of [Injured] and [Dying]. At 5-stars, his [Unlimited Resolve] lasts for 2 turns. These upgrades significantly enhance his strengths, so if you're planning to include Alexei in your main team, aiming for 5-stars should be your long-term goal.

This is a build specialized in Strike Back. Thanks to [Goredrinker], it excels in damage dealt and Life Steal, so it's very powerful if you can lure enemy attacks to Alexei. The debuff from [Wild Roar] is powerful, but by changing to [Anger of Icefield], you can supplement your Move.
