How to Beat Samantha's Invitational Match

Lose HP to Raise Your Vibes

In Samantha's Special Invitational Match, you'll want your characters to lose HP as much as possible to quickly raise your Vibes. Jingliu and Blade will consume HP when they use their stronger attacks, so this will be easy to achieve.

You can also gain Vibes when your characters are attacked, so you don't need to worry about getting rid of the Illuminated Dragonfish summons quickly.

Target the Boss in Super Hype State

Once you've earned enough Vibes to enter the Super Hype state, the boss will be Weakness Broken. Go all out with your attacks and use your team's Ultimates to win the match!
