Best Team Compositions
| Position | Character |
| DPS |  Beryl |
| Sub DPS | Orlea |
| Support |  Khalipe |
Orlea excels at supporting her team through healing, shielding, buffs, debuffs, and damage, making her incredibly versatile. She works best when paired with characters who can take advantage of her Retain mechanics.
Beryl is the perfect main damage dealer for this team. She synergizes naturally with Orlea because both characters use Retain effects, allowing them to amplify each other's damage output. With Orlea's buffs and debuffs backing her up, Beryl can unleash devastating attacks that make her the team's primary damage source.
Khalipe rounds out the trio by providing crucial defensive support. While Orlea and Beryl focus on offense through their Retain synergy, Khalipe supplies shields to protect the team from heavy incoming damage.
Together, this trio creates a balanced composition where Orlea acts as the versatile support and secondary damage dealer, Beryl handles the main damage output, and Khalipe ensures the team's survival with shields and passive healing.

Playstyle Tips and Strategy/How to Play
Orlea's playstyle revolves around her unique Creation cards, special cards that cost 0 AP and come with the Retain effect. She can generate three types of Creations:
- Toughie: Provides shields when played and heals passively when retained
- Swiftie: Deals damage when played and stacks up more damage passively when retained
- Softie: Buffs damage both when played and when retained
Basic Strategy:
- Generate and upgrade Creations by merging duplicates of the same level (up to two upgrades)
- Retain Creation cards at the end of your turn to trigger their passive effects
- Prioritize Toughie cards for consistent passive healing without spending AP
- Use Creation cards strategically to avoid clogging your hand and allow drawing new cards
When Paired with Beryl:
Focus on creating and retaining Softie cards to maximize damage buffs for Beryl's attacks. Use Will of Light to activate all your Softie cards at once while also healing your team, setting up Beryl for devastating damage.
Orlea's special ability to manually trigger Retain effects on her own and allies' cards makes her exceptional at timing big damage bursts while keeping the team healthy.
