Finish her off using Ougi: Shadow Kill, then disengage by jumping to a Quad Shadow.
To maximize your damage potential and ensure a quick kill with your combo, buy Hunter Strike, Malefic Roar, and Blade of Despair.
Baxia
Tank hero Baxia is a bane to heroes reliant on healing abilities due to his passive, Baxia Mark. It significantly reduces the shield and HP regen of enemies while bolstering his tankiness.
Begin your assault against Rafaela with Baxia-Shield Unity. Once you have narrowed the gap, trigger Tortoise’s Puissance and persistently chase her down.
Strike her with Shield of Spirit repeatedly to force her away from her team while slowing her down.
Purchase Dominance Ice to further weaken her healing spell. Additionally, focus on building defensive items based on the opposing team’s composition to strengthen your overall defense.
