Synergies
- Abrams: Thrives in melee range and can easily bait attacks to trigger the parry effect for massive sustain and damage.
- Yamato: Her kit revolves around melee combat; Rebuttal provides crucial survivability and a damage spike during duels.
- Mo & Krill: As a close-range disabler, the added durability and parry threat make them much harder to take down in brawls.
