Analysis

Review

With how small the beast faction is, Flynn can still see some play in beast tower despite her low rating. Furthermore, her DPS can be quite impressive if she gets to ramp up after M1, which turns every one of her basic attacks into a massive AOE attack (remember some Flynn stages where she cast M1 and a single auto killed 3 of your units?).

Her S1 is also a mini Adrienne hook, which pulls the farthest enemy slightly closer to the frontline, grouping them up for her AOE basic attacks to hit. 

Flynn’s glaring weakness is the long time it takes for her to cast M1, and before then her basic attacks have the slowest base attack speed in the game without having a sufficient ATK buff to justify her slow speed, which severely gimps her DPS.

Against enemy comps with assassins that could easily jump behind her and alter her firing direction, or debuffers that slow mana regeneration or speed, it can be difficult for Flynn to enter into M1 safely and start contributing to the team. Her S3 is tied to relying on her being alone to massively increase her basic attack multiplier and crit rate with her artifact, and this can be problematic as you often run multiple backlines since stacking frontlines severely limit your DPS, and even enemy units can cancel this S3.

At the moment, her use is also limited in both boss stages and PVP, and we will see if she receives more changes or buffs in the future.
