Op Reserve A1
Introduction

Is Lava good?
Lava handles basic splash arts damage and packs surprisingly strong ATK for a 3-star unit. Her skill comes online fast, especially paired with Quick Skill Usage, and she's cheap to level and max out completely.
She lands at D on our list since she's capped at Elite 1 and gets outclassed as soon as a higher-rarity splash Caster joins the roster, though she still gets the job done early on.
Strengths
- Strong ATK for a 3-star
- Skill activates quickly with Quick Skill Usage
- Cheap to fully level and max potential
Weaknesses
- Stuck at Elite 1
- Falls off once better splash Casters are available
- Fairly one-note kit
