If you need a Sabrina Suomi guide, you are looking at the two characters that basically turn off the game’s difficulty. These two form a defensive core that makes your squad nearly impossible to kill.
Sabrina handles the raw physical tanking and cover preservation while Suomi provides the massive shields and constant healing.
Sabrina Overview
Sabrina sees a late mission as a perfect excuse for chocolate.
Sabrina is your primary Bulwark, especially in Hydro teams. Her job is to turn the tide of battle by destroying enemy cover with Meal Preparation. She keeps enemies back with the pushback from Delicious Feast and soaks up heavy damage. Her Gourmet Spirit ultimate provides a unique ability to keep cover from breaking, which is a massive help for keeping your DPS safe.
- Seiyuu: Miyuki Kobori
- Stat Priorities: Attack Boost, Defense Boost, Health Boost, Attack
Sabrina’s Skills & Keys
Her Gourmet Spirit ultimate grants shelter and counterattacks for the whole squad.
These Fixed Keys turn delicious meals into massive defensive boosts.
Top Picks:
- Eating is a Blessing: Defense increases by 20% when under attack.
- Delicious Sharing: Start the battle with 3 points of Confectance Index.
- Eat Well, Sleep Well: Recovers 2 stability points for every point of Confectance Index gained while the meter is not full.
Situational & Additional Keys
- Calorie Overload: Delicious Feast pulls enemies toward the center and deals 100% attack damage.
- Weird-Tasting Health Recipe: Meal Preparation now applies Taunt to 2 targets.
- Hot Oil Protection (Common Key): Adds 5% Defense Boost and applies Movement Down II on hit.
- Recipe of Legend (Expansion Key): Converts counterattacks to Hydro damage and adds up to 30% damage reduction.
Attachments: Phase Strike or Hydro Boost
Sabrina’s Team Recommendations
Sabrina’s main value is her ability to apply Damp (Hydro weakness) on demand, which is the engine that drives high-tier damage dealers like Tololo.
The Hydro Power Core (Best for Bossing/High Difficulty)
- Sabrina: The enabler (Damp application and tanking).
- Tololo: The primary DPS. She benefits massively from Sabrina’s Hydro tiles to stack her “Light Spikes” faster for huge critical damage.
- Springfield: Essential for this team. She provides the healing and Confectance generation that lets Tololo take multiple turns.
- Qiongjiu (QJ): Acts as the follow-up support, triggering her own attacks whenever the team strikes a single target.
The AOE / Crowd Clear Team
- Sabrina: Frontline tank and cover destroyer.
- Lotta: Provides massive shotgun AOE and stability chip damage.
- Vepley: Use her for high mobility and flanking to clean up whatever the shotgunners miss.
- Suomi: Flex into this spot for extra safety, or use a dedicated healer like Springfield.
Sabrina’s Signature Weapon | Mezzaluna
The Mezzaluna inflicts attack debuffs while keeping Sabrina’s stability high.
- Effect: Increases damage by up to 40% if Stability is high. It also applies Attack Down to the strongest enemies nearby at the end of her turn.
- Imprint Skill: Increases damage dealt to Varjagers by 2.5%. If the skill used consumes Confectance Index, the damage is further increased by 2.5%.
- Alternatives: Mezzaluna is a must for her. If you do not have it, Expeditionary Pigeon (Battle Pass), Heart Seeker, and M1 Super 90 are decent alternatives.
Suomi Overview
Suomi strives to be a reliable helping hand for any Commander.
Suomi is your premier Support unit, functioning as the heart of Freeze teams. While Sabrina stops bullets, Suomi prevents damage entirely by cycling massive Frost Barriers and constant healing. She cleanses debuffs and restores stability to the whole team, making her the perfect answer to aggressive bosses and debuff-heavy maps.
- Seiyuu: Aki Toyosaki
- Stat Priorities: Attack Boost, Attack, Health Boost, Defense Boost
Suomi’s Skills & Keys
Her Snowfield’s Radiance ultimate restores stability and cleanses debuffs.
Fixed Keys like Indomitable Will ensure Suomi stays immune to status effects.
Top Picks:
- Unyielding Momentum: Restores 2 stability points if the target is in Stability Break after Winter’s Wrath.
- Little Guardian: Start the battle with 3 points of Confectance Index.
- Logistics Support in Progress: Recovers 10% max HP and 1 stability point at the end of her turn if her stability is above 0.
Situational & Additional Keys
- Positive Feedback: Gains extra Confectance if the target’s HP is low.
- Immovable: Immediately cleanses Stun, Taunt, or Paralysis and grants a massive Frost Barrier. Great for PVP.
- Mission’s Blessing (Common Key): Restores 15% HP and grants Defense Up III when health drops below 80%.
- Rock and Roll, Snowflake! (Expansion Key): Boosts Freeze damage by 15% for allies with Frost Barrier and applies Iced to enemies.
Attachments: Phase Strike, Ultimate Pursuit, or Emergency Repair (V1+).
Suomi’s Team Recommendations
Suomi is arguably the most flexible character in the game. She is the heart of Freeze teams, but she is often used as a “universal bodyguard” in any squad that needs protection.
The Mono-Freeze (Ice) Meta
- Suomi: Primary sustain and Freeze application.
- Makiatto: The premier single-target Ice DPS. She hits much harder when Suomi applies Ice weakness to the target.
- Helen: The core buffer for Freeze squads. She significantly increases the efficiency of Suomi’s shields and healing.
- Alva or Lotta: Alva is better for map control and mobility, while Lotta provides better AOE damage for groups.
The Universal Bodyguard (Meta Carry)
- Suomi: Defensive anchor.
- Klukai: The AoE powerhouse.
- Tololo: Single-target burst.
- Qiongjiu (QJ): Support attack follow-ups.
- Why it works: Suomi provides such a massive shield (a “second health bar”) that these high-damage glass cannons can ignore cover and stand in the open to delete the map.
The “Unkillable” Frontline
- Sabrina + Suomi: When you put these two together, you are trading some offensive speed for absolute safety.
- Strategy: Sabrina sits in the middle of the enemy group to counterattack and draw aggro, while Suomi layers shields over her to ensure she never actually takes health damage.
Suomi’s Signature Weapon | Unspoken Calling
Dense Protection boosts shield effectiveness and rewards freeze damage.
- Effect: Boosts Freeze damage for the whole team and increases shield values by up to 40% when using her Ultimate.
- Imprint Skill: Increase damage dealt to Marley Thermal Power Plant by 2.5%. If the target has Frigid, increase the damage dealt by an additional 2.5%.
- Alternatives: Unspoken Calling is her best option. Otherwise, look for Classified Manuscript (Battle Pass), Juggernaut, or Svarog.
