Note: The rankings showed here are the Reroll Ratings. The units' overall ratings, including Inherit Skill, may differ.

Pull for Valentine's Lif!

This banner's best unit has to be Valentine's Lif. In our opinion, he is the only unit worth pulling for, too!

He gives himself massive buffs if he is within 2 spaces of an ally and weakens an enemy unit's damage reduction skill.

His duo skill also deals damage to nearby enemy units based on the damage dealt to his allies, and inflicts devastating debuffs to their stats.

Not to mention, he possesses the very powerful and sought-after Fatal Smoke 3.

If you're in the market for a cool recent duo unit, Valentine's Lif may be perfect for your barracks.

Focus-Locked Banner!

This banner is focus-locked, meaning that the only 5★ heroes you get from it are the focus units. This makes it easy for you to target specific units in this banner as the initial 6% 5★ focus rate means a 0.75% per each 5★ hero.

Should You Pull From This Summon?

Don't spend your Orbs here.

CYL5 and Perilous Seas are still active upon the release of this banner. Your Orbs are better off there unless you need Valentine's Lif and / or Fatal Smoke 3 badly.

If there is a character you want, pull from this banner!

Regardless of our thoughts on this banner, you should pull for it if you really want a specific hero from it. Take note that the focus units are all special heroes. This means that they are only available in specific banners like these!

Pull if you want their skills
