Rank	Meta Teams	Alternative	F2P Friendly
R0	sun and moonMETA Main DPS Sub DPS Support One of the most flexible and valuable team. Unmatched adaptation. Pros Super flexible team on the roster. Each unit can be used to build separate high tier teams. High AoE damage. Includes Shorekeeper, the best general support. Cons Fixed rotation order limits flexible swapping. Needs to time Augusta's ultimate perfectly in WhiWa. Tune BreakMETA Main DPS Sub DPS Support Best specialized team. Massive damage buff via Tomb Break mechanics. Pros Offers a massive 40% additional damage taken buff via Lynae. Highly effective synergy with 'rupture' and 'shifting' effects. High utility: HP restoration and interruption resistance. Any DPS works fine. Cons At S0, Mornye is heavily dependent on Lynae to activate buffs. Interference marker duration (8s) is short for some rotations. Phrolova carryMETA Main DPS Sub DPS Support Phrolova's damage maximization. Rank 0 for both endgame modes. Pros Undisputed best performance in Whimpering Waves. Massive damage buffs scale with fight duration. You don't have to use Roccia. High personal damage from all members. Cons Very low budget value (Niche units). Cantarella's kit feels unwieldy to some users. Fusion AmplificationMETA Main DPS Sub DPS Support Explosive fusion damage combining Mornye's amp with Lupa. Pros Combines 25% All-DMG amp with Fusion resistance reduction. Exceptionally strong with Mornye S1 (removes restrictions). Cons Lacks 'interference' triggers without Mornye S1. Requires specific Fusion DPS to maximize value. Erosion NukeMETA Main DPS Sub DPS Support Highest single-target damage ceiling in TOA. Pros Unmatched single target damage in Tower of Adversity. Chisa provides significant performance boost. Cons Extremely expensive (3x Signature Weapons needed). Poor performance in multi-wave content. Ciaccona's rotation is clunky without mastery.	—	—
R0.5	Carlotta Tune-BreakMETA Main DPS Sub DPS Support Premium Hypercarry. Pros Lynae provides top-tier generalist buffs plus off-field damage. Consistent rotation loops with high damage amplification. Cons Very expensive team. Galbrena CarryMETA Main DPS Sub DPS Support 'Brain-dead' team with huge AoE and survival. Pros Easiest team to pilot; simple rotations. High survival rate (CC + Healing). Shorekeeper is high value generally. Cons Qiuyuan has limited synergy outside specific teams. Zani HyperMETA Main DPS Sub DPS Support Extremely high damage ceiling but clunky kit. For experts only.	—	—
R1	—	Best 1.x DPS Main DPS Sub DPS Support Jiyan remains competitive with modern supports.	Phrolova F2PF2P Main DPS Sub DPS Support No healer needed. Self-sustain clears top content. Carlotta F2PF2P Main DPS Sub DPS Support Accessible, energy-efficient team. Yangyang funnels Energy to Carlotta. Pros Buling boosts Skill DMG. Super simple and fast rotations. Cons Lower damage ceiling. S6 Buling is needed.
R1.5	Mono FusionMETA Main DPS Sub DPS Support Most fun 'Quick Swap' team. High AoE but expensive. Pros High skill ceiling with quick swap mechanics. Extremely high AoE and grouping capabilities. Great for veterans looking for complexity. Cons Very expensive (3 limited characters). Highly restrictive (Mono element). Changli's DMG lower than new carries.	—	—
R2	—	Mornye Standard Main DPS Sub DPS Support Competent generalist support alternative to Shorekeeper/Verina. Pros Competent third generalist healer/support. Simple playstyle and explosive animations. Cons Significantly worse than Shorekeeper at S0 without synergy. No quick-swap synergy (needs field time).	—
