- Strong mid game once the reroll units are upgraded
Weaknesses
- Needs Seraphine and Yuumi at high cost, which can be hard to hit

Strategic Tips
Economy
Reach 50 gold, then slow roll at level 6 with only the excess until Katarina are 3-starred.
Itemization
Build Jeweled Gauntlet, Blue Buff, and Striker's Flail on Seraphine.
When to pivot
Scout at 2-1 and 3-2: if two or more players hold your core units, or you haven't found any by 3-2, move into one of the comps on the Similar Comps tab instead of forcing Battle Academia Seraphine.
