YES, YES, A MILLION TIMES YES. All four Operators on this banner are extremely strong and extremely versatile. In particular, humble 4★ Myrtle is still the best DP-generator released so far in CN.

Even if you’re not interested in this banner (for some crazy reason), remember to do Headhunt x1 until you pull a 5★ or higher Operator, since one is guaranteed in the first 10 rolls.

Enmity Guard

+ Tons of health

+ Tons of damage

+ Tons of self-healing

- Cannot be directly healed by other Operators

Arts Guard

+ A Guard who does Arts damage (like 4★ Operator Mousse)

+ High DEF, very survivable, difficult to kill

+ Skill 2 turns her into an AoE Guard (the only one with Arts damage)

- Has the usual weaknesses of Arts Guards (DP cost, low ATK, Block-1, etc.)

Normal Defender

+ Very durable Defender

+ Can Push enemies into pits with Skill 2 (like Shaw or FEater)

+ Increases survivability of allies placed adjacent to her

- In some situations, you’ll need a pure Defender or a pure Push Specialist instead

- Pushes in all directions, so has potential to Push in unanticipated ways.

Utility Vanguard

+ Outclasses every other Vanguard in terms of generating DP with her Skill 1

+ Passively heals other Vanguards

+ Can also use her Skill 2 to heal nearby allies

- Not much of a fighter, especially for a Vanguard

- Cannot Block or attack enemies while her Skills are active

Hellagur’s age isn’t a disadvantage: it’s proof of his godlike survivability. Rather than rely on others, Hellagur keeps himself alive by recovering health every time he attacks. His Talent increases his ASPD and his Skills increase his number of hits per attack, giving him superhero-levels of regeneration while he smashes his enemies into a fine paste.

Glamorous astrologist Astesia uses the power of the stars to smite her foes with Arts damage. Her Talent increases her ASPD over time, her Skills increase her DEF, and her Skill 2 increases her Block count and targeting so she becomes an AoE Guard. Is there anything she can’t do? No. No there isn’t.

You mess with the bull, you get the hammer! Croissant combines the best parts of a Defender and a Push Specialist into one high-powered package. She even grants a little extra survivability to adjacent allies with her life-saving Talent, Miracle Field.

Myrtle’s small size belies the biggest DP-generating capabilities in the entire game. Her weapons – an iridescent flag and a golden apple – may not be much good for fighting, but using their powers, Myrtle rallies her allies to the field faster than any other Vanguard.
