Farming
0.6Yuumi

Damage
276Yuumi
400Bard
Bard heavily out-damages Yuumi by 124 DMG/min, dominating both short trades and all-in fights. Yuumi should avoid extended combat and instead focus on burst trade patterns — short engages followed by immediate disengagement — to avoid letting Bard's sustained damage advantage take over.

Sustain
494Yuumi
781Bard
