Analysis

Review

Renee also suffers a similar fate to Cherrie, that being the fairy faction has some of the best units currently like Vivi, Talia, Chloe, and Naiah, thereby simply outclassing her.

Sharing a similar role with Haru as a single target melee burst unit, Renee is weaker since she does not have any DEF penetration, only mana reduction. This inherently contradicts her kit since a melee frontline like Renee, without any gap closers, would only target the enemy frontline.

Mana reduction isn’t that impactful against frontlines as compared to outright killing them with DEF penetration since their M1s are usually not that impactful compared to a backline M1.

Her artifact is like Linzy’s daze stacks but worse since she only gains crit rate without any attack or crit dmg buff. Another glaring weakness is that a large portion of her kits like M1, ult, and S1 depends on her S3 being active, but Renee’s S2 speed buff is only up for 14s, which heavily gimps her overall DPS and durability when inactive.

Although she is a fairy and you could run Vivi with her, her speed buff only lasts 10s, which is still extremely short and likely will not align with Renee’s skill timings. Without S3, Renee simply cannot match up with most other SSRs. 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.
