Analysis

Review

Breakbeat Alex is the best 3-cost SSR Defender in the game that is nearly on the level of the best 4-cost Defenders like Serapel or Levia.

Breakbeat Alex can tank for days due to her stacking Barriers on herself constantly, but also after the buff, she can also stack ATK on herself (and the effect can't be removed), so her damage output is really good for a Defender - it's not on the level of Rearm Orca or Rearm Esterosa, but those two are Strikers.

Overall, Alex joins the two (and Kestrel Xiao) as a must-have rearm.
