Líf: Lethal Swordsman Strategy

Don't Let Líf Attack!

Líf's Special is up at the start of the map and if he attacks your units, they will be taking large amounts of damage.

His weapon will buffs his stats and give him a guaranteed follow-up attack, while his B skill will debuff his target and his attacks will slow their Special if they already have another debuff active.

Defeat Líf during the player phase with a high firepower blue mage in order to take advantage of his lower Res.

Watch Out for Debuffs!

Several units in this battle enable Líf's kit by debuffing your team. The Cleric has both Atk Ploy 3, Panic Ploy 3, and Chill Spd 3, which could all prove extremely annoying to deal with.

You can give one of your units Harsh Command+ to turn any debuffs into buffs, or try to have a unit with Galeforce to try to take them out and then retreat to safety.
