Is Kota Tachibana good?
Kota Tachibana absorbs incoming attacks as a Defender and leans on shields for survivability, while also cutting damage from enemies that are already debuffed. His Ascension 1 adds self-healing, and Ascension 2 extends how long his shields last, which makes enough of a difference to survivability that it's worth prioritizing over A1.
Pairs well with: Freeze Squad.
