Review

Ryu is a backline sustain support. Her special targets frontmost ally and applies uncancelable healing over time and skill haste buffs (and 25% ASPD if target is a striker). Ryu Lion requires some aspd to gain enough concentration stacks to share haste for her second special onwards which leads to some scenarios requiring specialized gear to see best performance.

Unfortunately her healing output is not higher than what other sustain support options offer. Outside of very specific setups she is not worth considering.

Pros & Cons
Pros

  • Healer and ASPD/ Skill Haste buffer

Cons

  • Only supports a single frontline unit
