Mercedes and Annette Strategy

Use a tanky blue unit!

The enemy units don't move until you enter the danger zone.

The best way to get things moving is to have a blue tanky unit stand in the indicated spot shown above.

Preferably this tank can counterattack regardless of range as they will be able to potentially take out Mercedes if she attacks.

Kite Annette and be careful of her weapon effect!

Annette has no Distant Counter in her kit so you can use a ranged unit to kite her.

It's unwise to use a melee unit against her, as she has her Special ready at the start of the map.

Be careful, however, as her weapon's effect allows her ally to move an extra space if she uses her Rally Atk/Spd+ on them.
