How to Beat Zero Hour Invokation: Part 1

Best Cards Against Amber

The Swirling Summon Deck

Main Character Cards
Venti	Rhodeia of Loch	Fischl

Venti and Rhodeia will be some of the recommended cards in this duel, along with many others. But amongst all of the cards presented to you, this is by far the best way to a fast and easy victory.

Taking the Special Rules into account, this deck will be perfect for taking down Amber's character cards all at once! This deck specialized in the use of the Swirl and Electro-charged reactions to hit all opponents in the field.

Strategy and Rotation

Rely on Elemental Reactions

Start with Rhodeia when the duel begins and have her summon her Hydro mimics to set up Hydro reactions. Afterwards, switch to Fischl and have her summon Oz to set up end-phase Electro-charged reactions.

Once those have been put into place, swap to Venti and prepare him for potential Swirl reactions should Rhodeia's mimics or Oz sticks an element into one of Amber's cards.

Quick Swap to Keep Reactions Up

It goes without saying that quick-swapping is essential when it comes to keeping Elemental Reactions up and running.

If you're lucky enough to score quick-swap cards such as Leave It to Me!, Changing Shifts, or When the Crane Returned, be sure to put those into play!

Serious Showdown Strategy

Watch Out for Elemental Bursts

In "Serious Showdown" difficulty, Amber will be more vigilant and mindful of the fact that her deck has 2 Energy charges on hand. Therefore, her Elemental Burst will be especially dangerous, as it will hit all of your cards.

Additionally, she can summon Baron Bunny for end-phase Pyro reactions. The same strategy will apply with Klee. Barbara will be there to make things even harder for you by keeping her party's health up.

Hold Them Back or Hit Them Back!

The best way to circumvent this would be to not give her a chance to use any of her Elemental Bursts.

You can swap out Fischl for Kaeya for a Frozen deck to stop Amber's cards in their tracks, or push through with Electro-charged and beat Amber at her own multi-targeting game!
