Beginner Team
If you just started the game you could use this team to go through the early game content until you have a decent pool of IDs
You can pretty much fill the rest of the slot with IDs you have already upgraded or rerolled but some recommendations on who can fill it are Kurokumo Hong Lu, Lobotomy Corp Remnant Faust, Seven Association Ryoshu, Shi Association Ishmael
Poise - Assist Attack
Stack Poise and use Pequod Captain Ishmael's assist attack as much as possible with Pride Resonance. Use [Thoracalgia] Ryoshu as soon as possible and try to atleast get 3 Pride skills every turn to activate Blade Lineage Meursault's passive
A lot of units in this team can be substituted for something else, key members being Blade Lineages and Pequod Ishmael. Pequod Heathcliff, both Blade Lineage Faust and Don can be a good pick or you can also just run 2 slots Blade Lineage Meursault. This team is mostly effective against enemies weak to Pride and do keep in mind that all of the Blade Lineages needs Uptie 4.
Poise - Fullstops
Combine the Fullstop's insane damage output with other Poise IDs. Bassicaly the same gameplan as the other Poise team, using [Thoracalgia] Ryoshu as fast as possible and 3 Pride skills every turn. But this time you can use [Fell Bullet] Yi Sang on Fullstop Heathcliff to deal a ton of damage as he has the lowest amount of max HP out of everyone before he retreats since he won't be needing the HP once he retreats
It is mandatory to have a 7th ID as backup so Fullstop Heathcliff can enter the Overwatch Assignment state. A lot of the units can be replaced by something else as the only key units are Fullstop Heathcliff and Hong Lu and they can function without anyone else
Tremor - Reverb
A team that focuses on stacking Tremor and dealing damage through Tremor-Reverb. The key to this team is to use Yurodivy Hong Lu Skill 3 or [Cavernous Wailing] Hong Lu to convert the Tremor stacks on the enemy into Tremor-Reverb and then burst it as much as possible. Always place someone that gains tremor such as Yurodivy Hong Lu as the first deployed sinner due to Yurodivy Ryoshu's Support passive.
A good IDs to fill the missing slot would be LCCB Ishmael, Oufi Heathcliff, Ring Yi Sang, and T Corp Don Quixote. Due to Tremor-Reverb's properties this team mainly focus against enemy weak to Sloth.
Sinking - Deluge
The key to this team is to use [Rime Shank] Rodion and Molar Ishmael to stack Sinking and follow it up with Spicebush Yi Sang Skill 3.
The core of the team are Rodion (any Rodion can work as long as you have Uptie 4 [Rimeshank] Rodion, Molar Ishmael and Spicebush Yi Sang. The rest can be subtituted with something that inflicts/synergize with Sinking such as Dieci Hong Lu, Butler Outis, and Edgar Gregor.
Sinking - Butterfly
A traditional Sinking team that utilizes the mechanic of Butterfly from either Solemn Lament Yi sang and [Solemn Lament] Gregor E.G.O to deal extra damage on top of the normal Sinking damage.
The only downside is that this team can be less effective compared to the Sinking Deluge team due to Butterfly Potency application being random and the fact that the damage is capped at 30. Just like Sinking Deluge team anything that inflicts/synergize with Sinking can subtitute the missing IDs.
Burn
The key to this team is to stack Burn while having various damage sources including Burn itself, Dark Flame from Magic Bullet Outis, and other damage dealing IDs. [Magic Bullet] Outis E.G.O is pivotal for her to scale significantly faster.
It is recommended to have another ID as the 7th slot on chain battles in case Faust manages to explode herself. Other recommendations are The One Who Shall Grip Sinclair (remove passives with SP heal), any Meursault with Uptie 4 [Capote] Meursault, The One Who Grips Faust, Cinq East Don, and the other Liu ID can subtitute/fill the missing slot
Charge
A team that focuses on generating Charge and spending them. The key to this team is to use MultiCrack Heathcliff and W Corp Outis to generate Charge for the others to deal a ton of damage. [Telepole] Don E.G.O also helps speed up Charge gain but there is some risk in terms of using the Corroded version, especially on Uptie 4 since she gains 30 Rupture (10 on Uptie 3) and gives everyone 5 Fragile.
Other recommendation that can fill/subtitute the team are Penitence & Red Eyes Ryoshu, R Corp Ishmael, and W Corp Hong Lu.
Bleed
Use the synergy from Bloodfiends and pair it up with the two best Kurokumo IDs to not only inflict Bleed but also deal a lot of damage. 3 Lust res is mandatory to make full use of not only Kurokumo Heathcliff but also Barber Outis and Kurokumo Ishmael. Also If it is a chain battle you can sacrifice other Kurokumo IDs first to boost both Ishmael and Heathcliff.
Other recommendation that can fill the flex slots are Ring Yi Sang, The One Who Grips Faust, and any Meursault with the [Yearning Mircalla] Meursault E.G.O, Other than those anyone that inflicts Bleed Count works. Of course you can also run only Bloodfiends but don't forget to put Princess Rodion as first deployed sinner as she gains the most out of second slot.
Rupture
This team requires some piloting skills as one bad decision can lead to your Rupture stacks depleting and it is not recommended to use against multiple enemies.The idea is to reach the 15 Potency and 3 Count threshold for a free 15 damage every hit, try to use [Ebony Stem] Outis as fast as possible and get 4 Gluttony Resonance to activate both Talisman Sinclair and K Corp Hong Lu's support passive (Although be careful with the ampules). If it is a chain battle you can use Lantern Yi Sang and sacrifice him early to get a kickstart on Rupture stacks
Theres not much IDs that can replace them unless they have neutral/positive Rupture Count as this team have a very specific gameplan, IDs such as W Corp Yi Sang ([Dimension Shredder] Yi Sang E.G.O Mandatory) can be used. If you are running this in Mirror Dungeon however Devyat Sinclair is a very good option
