Hero Relations

Synergizes With

Hero
Hero

Karina works well with heroes who can pull enemies together, such as Tigreal and Faramis, since her Ultimate and 2nd Skill also hits anyone near her main target, setting them up to be chain killed by her Ultimate.

Strong Against

Hero
Hero

Karina counters Marksmen that lack mobility, such as Layla and Hanabi, since her 1st Skill can neutralize their Basic Attacks and they can't escape her high mobility and burst damage.

Weak Against

Hero
Hero

Karina is countered by Tanky heroes with CC abilities, like Akai and Khufra because they can tank her damage, and protect their allies from her.
