Stats

Analysis

Review

Expert Merc Yoo Mina sadly is as underwhelming as her base version. While she did get better stats and damage, she's still not really worth using mainly due to her being a 4-cost damage dealer that only deals damage (and less than other employees with the same cost, like Sobin).

Her biggest issue though is that she has a CRIT-reliant kit which in the current state of the game where you can't ever reach 100% CRIT always puts you at the mercy of RNG.

Pros & Cons
Pros

- if all stars align, she is able to deal a lot of burst damage,

- shines in stages with a lot of enemies, where her wide AOE is great.

Cons

- high cost,

- CRIT-reliant kit that makes her too RNG.
