This team prioritizes damage output, and utilizes Yo's and Kazuki's ability to easily break enemies. Miu can further increase the team's damage with her low-cost ultimate.

For Tension Cards, we recommend having Full Party, Strike Zone, and Things to Hold On To to increase the team's damage even more.

Energy Steal and Ferocity are there to help keep the team healthy since it lacks a healer. If the healing these two Tension Cards provide aren't enough, consider using Yo's Passive Expansion 2 to give the team another source of healing.

If you want a more balanced team, we recommend pairing Yo with Koishi and Roku.

This team's damage output isn't as high as the 3-attacker lineup but it's more sustainable, thanks to the healing Koishi provides and Roku's ability to tank enemy attacks.

To help Yo dish out more damage, make sure to equip Tension Cards like Full Party, Strike Zone, Rise and Fall of Glory, and Endless Serving.

Despite Koishi's reliable healing, you might still be overwhelmed with enemy attacks and end up dying. Having Ferocity as one of your Tension Cards ensures you'll be revived once in case you die.

Break Enemies Using His Secondary and Strategy Skill

Yo Kuronaka's strength lies in his ability to break enemies using his Secondary Attack and Strategy Skill.

However, both of these actions consume a large amount of stamina. Using them in quick succession can leave you vulnerable to attacks since you won't have enough stamina to counter or dodge.

You can avoid this by pausing briefly after your Secondary Attack and assessing whether you can guarantee to break the enemy. If a break is guaranteed, follow up with your Strategy Skill.

Equipping Tension Cards that help recover Stamina can also keep you from running dry during tough fights.

Use His Ultimate When Enemies Are Grouped Together

Yo's Ultimate, “Grand Slam”, is a powerful multi-hit attack that can deal tons of damage to an enemy or a boss.

The best part of it is that it only requires 2 Tension to activate, allowing you to use it more frequently.

Grand Slam isn't limited to a single target though! It also deals damage to surrounding enemies, so try to take advantage of this and use Grand Slam when enemies are grouped together.

Unlock His Passive Expansions

Yo Kuronaka Potential

Just like the other playable characters, Yo has two Passive Expansions that you can utilize depending on your needs and playstyle.

If you're looking to increase his overall damage output, we recommend using Yo's Passive Expansion 1. Doing so increases his Primary Attack DMG Multiplier and Strategy DMG Multiplier.

If you need a sub-healer in your team, you'll want to unlock Yo's Passive Expansion 2. This allows everyone in your party to heal based on the damage Yo deals to his enemies when he's in Burst Drive.
