Best Buffs for Day 1

Martialism Buff Effect
Firmness When allies deal Physical DMG to Weakness Broken enemies, every hit will additionally deal a set amount of DMG equal to 6% of the target's Max HP.
Blackhole Throw After allies Break enemy Weaknesses, the ally regenerates Energy equal to 100% of their Max Energy.
Road Roller Throw The Weakness Break Efficiency of allies' Physical attacks increases by 150%.

How to Clear the Exhibition Match in 6 Cycles

Spam Argenti's Ultimate at the Start

When using Argenti, make sure to spam his Ultimate at every start of the round. You don't have to fill it all the way up to the second gauge, as you'll lose a lot of turns by not spamming his ultimate.

Build Up Luka's Fighting Will

During the start of the fight, always use Luka's Skill to build up his Fighting Will. This allows you to spend it for his Basic ATK to deal massive amount of damage on a single enemy, especially against Blaze Out of Space and Guardian Shadow in the last round.

Use Bronya's Skill On Luka

This tip is specifically for those who have Bronya on their team. You want to use Bronya's skill on Luka to make the most out of his Fighting Will.

Use Luka's skill first to gain stacks of Fighting Will, then use Bronya's skill on Luka to give him an extra turn. This allows you to spend most of his Fighting Will in one turn and finish off most enemies for this fight.
