Sui Yakumo Counter Team Comp

2 Long-Range Attackers +1 Tank

Recommended Team Comp
Long-Range
(Player)		 Long-Range Tank/Shield
Tsuki IrohaTsuki Iroha Tsuruko SembaTsuruko Semba Kazuki AoyamaKazuki Aoyama

This team comp allows you to attack from a distance while safely fighting. While Tsuruko has AoE and ranged attacks, she also has an Invigorating Skill that will come in handy considering that the battle against Sui is lengthy.

Kazuki's shield can provide the team with additional protection and durability. Meanwhile, on top of being an adept ranged attacker, Tsuki's Ultimate will be the main source of damage.

1 Support + 2 DPS

Recommended Team Comp
Player DPS DPS
Koishi KohinataKoishi Kohinata Yo KuronakaYo Kuronaka Tsuki IrohaTsuki Iroha

In this team comp, the player will serve as the team's support and healer with Koishi's healing abilities. Koishi can also act as a bait, luring Sui while Yo and Tsuki capitalize and do damage.

Tsuki's Ultimate is especially powerful, and so it will be best to use it as much as possible. When Sui approaches with a charge attack, successfully land Counterattacks to activate Chain Skills and create a situation where you can use Tsuki's Ultimate.

Checkmark Be Prepared for Sui's Second Form
Checkmark Don't Rush to Win
Checkmark Use Long-Range Attackers
Checkmark Use Healers

Be Prepared for Sui's Second Form

When Sui's HP reaches 0 the first time, he will recover his HP to its maximum, and Sui will then enter his second form.

You need to deplete Sui's HP gauge twice. So, be prepared for a lengthy boss fight.

Don't Rush to Win

Throughout the battle, Sui's attack patterns don't change much. So even in his second stage, don't rush to win and be careful to manage your Tension while aiming for counterattacks.

Use Long-Range Attackers

Recommended Long-Range Attackers
Tsuruko SembaTsuruko Semba Tsuki IrohaTsuki Iroha
Other Recommended Guest Characters
Kazuki AoyamaKazuki Aoyama

It is recommended to use long-range attackers in this fight as Sui has many hard-to-predict attacks that involve charging in close-range. So utilizing long-range attacks can keep your team safe while also being able to effectively counterattack Sui. Kazuki is also recommended for his ability to deploy a shield that helps reduce damage taken by the team.

Use Healers

Recommended Healers
Tsuruko SembaTsuruko Semba Koishi KohinataKoishi Kohinata Minami OiMinami Oi

Since Sui enters a second stage, this battle is going to take longer than usual to complete. So, it is recommended to also use healers in your team. Use characters with HP recovery skills as Sui has a number of attacks that are hard to avoid and deal a lot of damage.

Sui Yakumo Abilities and Attack Patterns

How to Beat Sui Yakumo
Checkmark 3 Consecutive Attacks
Checkmark Charge Attack
Checkmark Charge → Release
Checkmark Orb-Throwing Attack
Checkmark Container-Throwing Attack

3 Consecutive Attacks

Sui swings his weapon three times in a row while lunging forward. Take note that Sui always takes a swing at the player's character at the start of the boss battle.

This is an attack with large movements, making it easy to counter. At the start of the match, try to land a counterattack from the get-go, and disrupt Sui and break his posture. Doing this will also help your team build up Tension.

Moreover, you can use characters like Roku Saigo who can use the [Attention] ability to attract attacks, so characters with long-range attacks can deal damage relatively easily.

Charge Attack

As soon as the "WARNING" appears, Sui will jump up and charge at the player character. This is an attack that is diffifult to dodge, but not impossible.

Try to get the timing right for a Counterattack. When your opponent jumps up, turn your gaze towards Sui and wait for one beat before pressing the button to launch a counterattack.

Charge → Release

The "WARNING" sign will appear on the screen and Sui will enter a charging state for approximately 10 seconds.

While Sui is busy charging up, capitalize on your chance to attack him for the first 5-6 seconds. Note that even if you manage to break Sui's posture with your attacks, he can still carry on and perform the full cycle of his Charge→Release attack.

After about 10 seconds, Sui will release energy attacks onto the surrounding area. It is recommended to have your controlled character retreat to the outer perimeter of the field to try and lure Sui's energy attack, creating an opening for your team's main attackers/DPS.

Take note that this attack will be followed up by Sui's Sphere-Throwing Attack.

Orb-Throwing Attack

This is a powerful move that is unleashed after the Charge → Release attack. Sui fires a large number of orb onto various directions towards the outer edges of the field.

For roughly 5 seconds, Sui continuously releases orbs containing white energy zaps that move slowly into the field. Afterwards, he releases orbs that contain black energy zaps that move at high speeds.

Take note that the orbs containing white energy zaps can be destroyed by simply attacking the orbs themselves. It's recommended to destroy as much orbs containing white energy zaps to give your team space in the battlefield and avoid all the orbs coming at you altogether.

Orb-Throwing Attack Becomes More Powerful During Sui's Second Stage

Once you've depleted Sui's HP for the first time and he enters his second stage, his attacks will become stronger. The number of orbs he releases will increase significantly, making them harder to avoid. So destroying nearby orbs is highly recommended as this will make it easier to avoid them later.

Container-Throwing Attack

This attack appears when Sui's Tension is at EXTREME. Sui will jump into the air, pick up a container, and throw it at the player's character.

You cannot counter this move. Instead, opt to try dashing and dodging the attack. If you're close to Sui, you might not be able to avoid him even if you press the dodge button at the right time, so it's also recommended that you keep a certain distance from Sui.
