F2P Starter Team — The Free Core That Clears Everything
Best for: Story content, early endgame, resource-limited accounts
The team
| Slot | Character | Role | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Carry | Esper Zero | Damage | Free through the story. Meta-viable Cosmos burst with AoE and shield-break utility. |
| Support | Sakiri | Buff | Standard-banner buffer who groups enemies and amplifies team damage. The one premium pull that matters. |
| Healer | Edgar | Survival | Auto-triage healing, AoE team heal, one lethal-hit block. Works with zero investment. |
If Sakiri hasn’t shown up on your standard banner yet, any buffer you own works in her slot — even A-Rank Haniel. The structure is what matters: free carry, damage amplifier, free healer.
How to play it
Open fights with Sakiri: her spirits pull enemies into a pack and set up the damage buff. Swap to Esper Zero and spend her burst while enemies are grouped — her AoE ultimate deletes packs outright. When pressure rises, swap to Edgar for the AoE heal; his auto-triage keeps whoever’s lowest topped up without any input from you.
The team’s real strength is economy: only one of the three costs serious resources to build, so you can funnel everything into Esper Zero while Sakiri and Edgar function at minimal investment.
Upgrade paths
- Got Hotori? She replaces Sakiri as your amplifier (or joins as a fourth investment for rotating content).
- Got Nanally or Chiz? Either replaces Esper Zero as the carry — the Sakiri + Edgar shell stays.
- Got Iroi? She replaces Edgar and unlocks high-damage endgame content.
