Investment & usage
Treasure: No dedicated Treasure. Collection Item (weapon collection level) target: SR15.
Investment profile: A character whose skill build-up and Overload priority are laid out on the community raising sheet (updated 2026.7). Use case: PvE.
Skill priority: Skill 1 > Skill 2 = Burst Skill
Overload priority: Max Ammo (useful extra option: Hit Rate recommended)
Totem usage: Burst 1, 20s cooldown. [Based on the skill text] Skill 1 "Card Throw" cuts every ally's Burst Skill cooldown by 4.13 sec for every 8 full-charge attacks — the same permanent burst-cooldown-reduction structure as Soline: Frost Ticket, so even when another character covers Burst 1, the value of shortening the whole team's burst cycle remains. Skill 2 permanently grants herself and the two allies beside her attack damage ▲ 3.93% when placed in the back row, and subsequently a permanent damage taken ▼ 8.98% as well. Bear in mind, though, that many of her buffs are max-HP based, so their coefficient value is not high by a standard that prioritises ATK and reload buffs.
Recommended cubes: Relic Bear, Relic Boost. Use case: PvE.

Pi-ppeong deck (Laplace: Ultimate Hero + Maxwell: Ordinary Mechanic + Rouge + Trina)
PvPLaplace: Ultimate Hero· Maxwell: Ordinary Mechanic· Rouge· Trina
A PvP instant-burst team that a Korean NIKKE YouTuber (Sperando) introduced repeatedly across several videos right after the new units Laplace: Ultimate Hero and Maxwell: Ordinary Mechanic released on 23 July 2026. The shape is presumed to be Laplace putting out instant burst damage while Maxwell's max-HP buff shores up survivability. As this comes from a single Korean YouTube channel, the detailed skill-level and Overload setup needs further checking (as of 2026-07-31).
Tetra Tribe Tower Team #1
TowerLudmilla: Winter Owner· Rouge· Alice· Blanc· Anis: Sparkling Summer
[Source: prydwen.gg Team Database] Tetra is special, they can form 2 different teams and each has their own advantage and disadvantage distinctively. This team is the original, featuring 2 ~ 3 heavy DPS, depending on stage. You want Anis against Electric weak stage, else just put Noir in her place and let Alice + Xlud cover the rest. This team lacks AoE power, so you may find yourself in a pickle against some stages. Substitutions: - [The same team described by another source — "Anis Holds a Summer Party"] [Source: prydwen.gg character page] Tetra Tower Squad. With the removal of Noir, S. Anis can finally enjoy Blanc's buffs without bricking herself. With Rouge, she can be added to your Tetra Tower squad without any loss of DPS and can effectively be used as a B3.
Tetra Tribe Tower Team #2
TowerLudmilla: Winter Owner· Rouge· Alice· Crust· Bready
[Source: prydwen.gg Team Database] With the release of Crust and Bready, we can now run them together for a very decent and constant AoE blast. Bready requires Crust to trigger her Distribute Damage, else she will have no skill. Crust requires you to fast tap her 3 times from the very start to trigger her buff, else on auto she also has 0 skill. This team is such a hassle to play, but it's indeed strong. Substitutions: You can replace Xlud with Blanc for a more comfortable gameplay but weaker damage output.
Electric Ade
BossCinderella· Rouge· Anis: Sparkling Summer· Ade: Agent Bunny· Maiden: Ice Rose
[Source: prydwen.gg character page] Mari gets directly replaced here in the B2 slot as Ade takes over her job. Ade provides a new element option to the popular Cindy Electric team, and in general is a stronger option even against neutral elements. This is because she is able to buff non-pierce units better than Mari and Grave. (Element: Electric)
Isabel Goes on Vacation With Cinderella
BossArcana· Blanc· Isabel· Rouge· Cinderella
[Source: prydwen.gg character page] A bossing team that revolves around Cinderella benefitting from Arcana's lingering buffs and quicker rotations. This team features 9-burst Cinderella accompanied by Rouge's, Arcana's, and Blanc's buffs/debuffs and healing. Blanc's Damage Taken scales well with Arcana + Isabel's already inflated ATK + ATK DMG. To carry this team to its greatest, learn how to manual Rouge for fast burst gen, which involves pre-reloading and pre-charging and a bunch of Max Ammo. Rouge also requires heavy manual gameplay in timing her CDR so that it triggers within Isabel's short 5s Full Burst. You will have to count, stop releasing Full Charge(s) before Full Burst, and make sure to land the 8th Full Charge only after Full Burst begins. Rouge's CDR has a small animation near her when triggered—pay a close attention! If this is not your fancy, avoid using this team (Element: Electric)
Black, White, and Red
BossMiranda· Blanc· Ark Ranger Black· Rouge· Sakura: Bloom in Summer
[Source: prydwen.gg character page] This team gives Black her most desired stats: guaranteed Crit and Damage Taken. The last B3 can be anything (DPS or support), but SSakura benefits best from Black. (Element: Wind)
