Yuki Yuki Veronica Veronica Cassius Cassius
CZN Build - Pro Can deal high AoE damage

CZN Build - Pro Able to search cards and cycle through deck fast

CZN Build - Con Lacks decent survivability

CZN Build - Con Relies heavily on specific card epiphanies

Yuki's job is to deal AoE damage constantly every turn while Veronica and Cassius will use their cards to draw and activate Inspiration. The two can also deal significant single-target damage once their upgrade cards are online in the form of Ballista and Triple 0.

This team has a survivability tools using Veronica's shields or Cassius' heals on his cards and second manifest ego. However, it is not enough especially for higher level Chaos. This team also relies heavily on specific epiphanies for this build and cannot fully function if one or two of the other cards did not get the right epiphany.

Sub-DPS Support
Veronica Veronica Cassius Cassius

Veronica and Cassius are the best team for Yuki. Her cards are all about Inspiration and party members that can draw and cycle through your deck fast is a must because relying on natural draw every turn end is not enough and will not activate Inspiration.

List of All Characters

Alternative Team Members

Character Explanation
Nia Nia Can replace Veronica or Cassius as another Support. Nia can also draw and search through your deck with her cards but at a cost of losing out damage in exchange for consistency. She is a perfect swap for anyone especially if Veronica is needed in another team.
Mika Mika Can replace anyone as another Support. If you are struggling to survive attacks or needs more AP, Mika is a great substitute but you lose a bit of card draw.

Yuki's goal is to make all of her attack cards cost 0 after activating its Inspiration effect so that she can play it without needing to watch over AP consumption. This means that you want to remove both Rapid Slash and Flowing Parry right away and keep Longsword Slash as it can cost 0 if her Potential 3-1 is active.

Her skill card, Prepare to Subdue, should have the Inspiration effect to draw 1 more of her attack card while her upgrade card, Freezing Blade, must have the Initiation tag so you can activate it at the start of battle and also lesser the chance of Inspiration cards being drawn on turn 1.

Lastly, her choice of Neutral Cards is either Belligerence or Aggressive Mutant to draw more cards. Only pick one depending on who is in your team. If you have Veronica, pick Aggressive Mutant because ballistas will interrupt with Belligerence. If you don't have Veronica, pick Belligerence instead.

Partner Details
Westmacott Westmacott Passive Effect:
Clue Spotted - Attack cards of the assigned Combatant drawn by their Ability have their Damage increased by 50% for 1 turn. Damage amount of cards with the assigned Combatant's Inspiration increases by 20%
Ego Skill:
Gleaming Deduction - Move 1 card(s) from hand to Draw Pile Draw 1 assigned Combatant card(s)

The best partner for Yuki is Westmacott because of her ability to increase the damage of recently drawn cards and further more if it has an Inspiration effect. Her ego skill makes it possible to return a card back to the draw pile especially to unactivated Inspiration cards.

List of All Partners

Alternative Budget Partner

Partner Explanation
Lillian Lillian A 4 star striker partner capable of enhancing the damage of cards that costs 1 or less AP which is great for this Yuki build.
Douglas Douglas A 3 star striker partner that boosts that attack and further more on the first turn of battle. Not really a great choice but it is enough if you don't have any 4 or 5 star striker partners.

Wiki - Bullet of Order SetBullet of Order Set Wiki - Black Wing SetBlack Wing Set

The best memory fragment sets for Yuki are the Bullet of Order and Black Wing for more order damage after playing an attack card and attack stats. This will improve her damage significantly especially after playing a lot of her cards every turn.

Stat Priority

Main Stats Recommended Substats
Ideal: Critical Chance%
Desire: Order Damage%
Imagination: Attack%
・ Critical Chance%

・ Attack%
・ Attack

For the sub-stats, prioritize the attack stat as she scales off of it well. Her potentials also need the attack stat so a decent 850-900 attack should be enough since the equipment and memory fragment sets will fill the rest of the requirement to reach 1000+ attack.

The best equipment for Yuki consists of Chimeranite for more damage after a card draw, Wings of Freedom for more damage after getting hit and Emblem of an Exceptional Entity for a flat damage increase.

Memory FragmentMemory Fragment Best EquipmentEquipment PlaystylePlaystyle


Avoid Using Unactivated Inspiration Cards

A lot of Yuki's cards has the Inspiration tag therefore, do not use it when the Inspiration effect is not active as it is often bad to play because it costs more or deals less damage. Play draw cards first to find a way to activate Inspiration or shuffle your deck.

Multiple Inspiration Activation Does Not Work

Some of Yuki's cards, such as Trickery Strike, can activate Inspiration effects without having to draw it. However, a card with an already activated Inspiration cannot reactivate the same effect when in hand. Also, Yuki's cards cannot activate Inspiration effects from other combatants.

Yuki Draw and Triple 0 or Full House Quest Combo

One of the best combo to play on Yuki is playing her attack cards multiple times per turn. However, you need a few things first before you can do the combo:

  • Make sure that you have a lot of 0 cost cards that can draw both for epiphanies and neutral cards.
  • Pick the Triple 0 or Full House Quest when playing the Pop Eyed Popper card
  • Play Dice Trick that creates a new quest card after completing a quest.

Once all of the requirements are met, as early as turn 2, you will draw a lot of cards and play Yuki's attack cards at 0 cost while enhancing the damage of Triple 0 or getting a ton of Full House all in one turn. You can use all of your cards every turn with this trick and can even kill enemies in one turn as shown in the video above.

Khalipe, Cassius, Yuki is hella good. kinda weird not to see her as a alt teammate here, fixes the survivability problem and with her X card is able to retain all cards that turn and AP is not really a problem.

Hi, thank you for this information. We have added another neutral card, Aggressive Mutant, as an alternative if there is a Veronica in a Yuki team. We have also provided further clarification that Belligerence will not work alongside Ballista cards.
