Catherine and Shamir Strategy

Don't Let Catherine or Shamir Attack!

Catherine and Shamir both have high stats and come with A skills that boosts their Atk and Spd.

If they attack your units, they will most likely one-shot them unless they are bulky. It's better to defeat them on the Player Phase.

Be Careful of the Red Fáfnir!

The Red Fáfnir also has high stats and could prove difficult to defeat due to having high Def and Res.

Paired with Distant Guard 3, ranged units will perhaps need to be granted another action by a dancer in order to defeat it.
