1. 2 FMB Rozen Blade · Farah · Sundiata developer pick Mid progression Beats 3 of 8 reference lineups 76.23/100 out of 100 ⇗
   Rozen Blade (S03), Farah (X11) and Sundiata (X15) score 76.23 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

   Rozen Blade is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Blitz applies Suppress for 1 round on a 30% roll, and takes the front as the sturdiest of the three. Farah is the multiplier, raising what the other two put out rather than adding a number of its own: carries 100% of damage amplification across its kit, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Sundiata is the win condition, bringing 77% of the lineup's expected damage: Flame of Revenge puts 537% into one enemy squad on a 40% roll, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-5 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because Rozen Blade’s Swarming Attack produces extra basic attacks, the exact trigger Farah and Sundiata both wait on; Rozen Blade’s Blitz applies Suppress and takes a squad out of the fight for 1 round, so Sundiata swings into a line that cannot answer; Farah raises Sundiata’s output directly rather than adding a number of its own. What you give up: raw damage reaches only about 14% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster; the damage runs off different engines, so the three do not compound. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. This is one of the lineups recommended in-game by the developers -- the score above is what that classic core is still worth against the current roster.

   Army Breaker (X02), El Cid (X12) and Sundiata (X15) score 80.10 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

   Army Breaker is the multiplier, raising what the other two put out rather than adding a number of its own: carries 48% of damage amplification across its kit, and takes the front, able to both absorb the opening rounds and heal through them. El Cid is the second amplifier -- with two heroes raising the output, the carry hits far above its own numbers: carries 20% of damage amplification across its kit, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Sundiata is the win condition, bringing 74% of the lineup's expected damage: Flame of Revenge puts 537% into one enemy squad on a 40% roll, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-5 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because El Cid’s Song of El Cid produces trigger-rate boosts, the exact trigger Army Breaker’s Formation: Enigma and Sundiata’s Flame of Revenge both wait on; Army Breaker’s Formation: Tranquility applies Silence and takes a squad out of the fight, so Sundiata swings into a line that cannot answer; Army Breaker raises Sundiata’s output directly rather than adding a number of its own. What you give up: raw damage reaches only about 15% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster; the damage runs off different engines, so the three do not compound. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending.

   War Lord is the multiplier, raising what the other two put out rather than adding a number of its own: carries 45% of damage amplification across its kit, and takes the front on purpose: this kit feeds on being attacked, and the front is where the attacks are.
