How to Beat Kuroda's Adventure Challenge

Capitalize on Swirl Reactions

Bringing an Anemo character like Sucrose or Jean can help you remove the Elemental Shields of the Abyss Mages and stun them.

Among the three, you should prioritize bringing down the Hydro Abyss Mage first, since its skill and burst can disable your Active Character from using any Skill.

How to Beat Kuroda's Duel

Take Mona or Bennett Out First

In this Duel, Mona and Bennett make a strong pair especially with their damage boosts plus their Vaporize reactions. Therefore, taking either one of them can restrict this impending doom, especially in the latter phases of the game.

Furthermore, Mona, with Bennett's burst can easily one-hit-KO any of your character card. You can use Piercing, Electro-charged, or Swirl to deal damage to both cards, thereby making it easier taking them down.
