Is Motoha Arai good?
Motoha Arai (Closer) is a 4-star Electric
Sweeper who plays more like an
Assassin and support hybrid, with decent Skill 2 damage and Electric support such as Shock. Her AoE damage is too low for a
Sweeper, she has some of the lowest HP in the game, and her Electric utility is seldom in demand, so she mostly appears in
YUI teams, where her all-attack kit helps trigger
YUI's follow-ups.
Pairs well with: YUI.
Strengths

- Every skill is an attack, helping
