Young Mia Skills at 5★
|
Might: 16 Range: 1 Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). If a skill compares unit's Spd to a foe's or ally's Spd, treats unit's Spd as if granted +10. At start of turn, if unit is within 2 spaces of an ally, grants 【Null Follow-Up】 and 【Dodge】 to unit for 1 turn. If unit initiates combat or is within 2 spaces of an ally, grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 to unit during combat. |
|
Cooldown Count = 4 Boosts Atk by 50%. |
|
If unit’s Spd > foe’s Spd, grants Special cooldown charge +1 and deals +5 damage per unit’s attack. (Only highest value applied. Does not stack.) |
|

◯ = Stat gains +4 with a superboon, ✕= Stat goes down by -4 with a superbane, - = No assets or flaws
| See the IV Checker for All Units | Trait Fruits—How to Change IVs |
When using an Ascendant Floret, we recommend getting the next superboon if it fits the hero. If not, consider what stat your hero needs most.
+Atk/-Res
Young Mia's best IVs are +Atk/-Res. Her Atk is a superboon and boosting it will yield better returns.
Her Res is in the middling range and reducing it should not affect most of her matchups. Thus, it is the bane of choice.
+Atk for a +10 Merge
We recommend +Atk when merging Young Mia to +10 for similar reasons above.
A +Spd IV may also be used to maximize her Spd and ensure she gets the leg up against most opponents.

Young Mia Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses
Young Mia Roles
Young Mia is a close physical attacker (range = 1). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage she deals will be equivalent to her Atk minus the foe's Def stat.
Young Mia Strengths
Sharp War Sword is a powerful weapon
Young Mia's Sharp War Sword is a powerful weapon with multiple effects that trigger both in and out of battle.
Listed below are all of its effects:
| 1 | Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count -1). |
|---|---|
| 2 | Grants a Phantom Spd 3 effect. |
| 3 | Grants 【Null Follow-Up】 to Young Mia at the start of each turn, if she is within 2 spaces of an ally. |
| 4 | Grants【Dodge】 to Young Mia at the start of each turn, if she is within 2 spaces of an ally. |
| 5 | Grants Atk/Spd/Def/Res+5 to Young Mia during combat, if she initiates combat or is within 2 spaces of an ally. |
Unlike most other speedy sword units, Sharp War Sword grants both 【Null Follow-Up】 and 【Dodge】simultaneously. This frees up Young Mia's B skill slot for other supplementary skills!
Spd/Def Tempo 3 neutralizes detrimental Special manipulation
Young Mia comes with a new line of skills called Tempo. Her Spd/Def Tempo 3 inflicts Spd/Def-3 on her foe and neutralizes effects that accelerate her foe's Special cooldown or hinder her own Special cooldown.
Take note that Tempo skills do not neutralize Special cooldown directly. They are not similar to 【Guard】in that way. They only neutralize effects that speed them up for the foe or slow them down for the wielder.
Young Mia Weaknesses
No Distant Counter effect
Young Mia does not have a Distant Counter effect on her weapon or her base kit. This leaves her vulnerable to ranged foes who can chip away at her health.
Use Skill Inheritance to remove this weakness!
Reliance on Dodge
Young Mia's defensive bulk is above average, but is not enough to survive multiple attacks from the current metagame units without 【Dodge】.
Additionally, most of the current metagame units have high Spd stats, reducing the potency of 【Dodge】.

Young Mia as a Source Hero
| Value of Skills | ★★★★★ |
|---|
Young Mia comes with Flashing Blade 4, Spd/Def Tempo 3, and Odd Tempest 3 as good inheritable fodder options.
The Tempo skills are brand new (as of April 2022), thus they should be the priority skill of choice when foddering off Young Mia.
