How Rosa works

Rosa is a 4-generation mythic Archer built primarily as a backline support. The kit centers on cleanse, team control immunity, anti-heal, and team Attack buff.

Conquest skill 1

A voluptuous figure, Rosa is used to drawing battlefield attention. Rosa clears all debuffs (control effects, etc.) for all squads and increases their Attack by 7% for 5s, during which they remain immune to debuffs.

Conquest skill 2

Rosa spins her fan blade out with dazzling ferocity, dealing Attack * 300% damage to enemies in its path.

Conquest skill 3

Rosa’s dancing is a wonderful distraction from the tyranny of the battlefield, reducing Attack Speed by 3% and healing effects by 60% for all enemy squads.

Rosa in Conquest

The hero remains present in successful late-stage testing through stage 505, showing relevance well beyond a narrow release window.

The current composite ranking weighs stage ceiling, trustworthy lower-power performance, role utility, position versatility, raw stats, and generation ceiling. Rosa is not ranked from raw win rate alone because heroes enter the dataset at different stages and are tested with different frequency.

The pattern is supported strongly enough to guide formation choices, while exact powers and private rows remain hidden.

Rosa in Arena

Preliminary Arena projection

The Arena rating is preliminary. It combines Conquest evidence, raw stats, generation age, targeting value, and utility such as cleanse, team control immunity, anti-heal, and team Attack buff. A very small amount of direct Arena evidence exists, but it is not large enough to publish as a firm result.

In Arena, Rosa should be judged by whether the formation can use cleanse, team control immunity, anti-heal, and team Attack buff before the hero is removed or controlled. Newer-generation raw stats matter more in direct PvP, but specialized older heroes can remain useful three or four generations later when their development and utility still justify the slot.

Best position for Rosa

The strongest trusted position in the current dataset is Back middle. Trusted wins also appear from Front left, Front right, Back left, and Back right.

  • Trusted winning positions: Front left, Front right, Back left, Back middle, and Back right.

The starting target map still applies: front left and back left pressure enemy front left, while front right, back middle, and back right pressure enemy front right. Retargeting then follows the closest valid target.

Helga — Conditional counter Strong evidence. Rosa has an observed advantage into Helga. Most often observed with Rosa in front right, initially pressuring the enemy front right.
team healing — Utility counter Projected evidence. Brings anti-heal and burst damage against team healing.

Threats to watch

Amadeus — Direct counter Moderate evidence. Amadeus has an observed advantage into Rosa. Most often observed with Amadeus in front left, initially pressuring the enemy front left.

Howard — Conditional counter Moderate evidence. Howard has an observed advantage into Rosa. Most often observed with Howard in front right, initially pressuring the enemy front right.

Named matchup conclusions remain position-dependent. A direct counter should be placed in the lane or slot that creates the observed interaction.
