TACTICAL TRAINING / OPERATOR ACADEMY

Learn by deploying.

Work through three illustrated drills for opening a lane, timing a defensive skill, and redirecting an attack.

01 / DEPLOYMENT · 3 steps

Deploy in the right order

Use a safe opening to turn deployment points into a stable lane. Ground tiles hold blockers. Raised tiles hold most ranged operators.

STEP 1 / 3

Fund the opening

Deploy Myrtle on a safe ground tile off the enemy path. Activate her skill when she can give up her block without letting an enemy pass.

02 / SKILL DRILL · 3 steps

Time a defensive skill

Cuora’s Shell Defense adds block, defense and self-recovery while she stops attacking. The firing line has to finish the enemies she catches.

STEP 1 / 3

Watch the approach

Cuora already holds the lane. Keep her skill ready while the early enemies are still within her normal block capacity.

03 / TARGETING · 3 steps

Bait a dangerous shot

An Executor can absorb an attack, retreat, and return after a short redeployment timer. Gravel’s S2 barrier makes her an early example.

STEP 1 / 3

Identify the target rule

Check the enemy’s attack range and targeting behavior. This drill assumes a normal ranged enemy without a special targeting rule.
