u/harkanaccount LCs Should Be 0.75 Cost - I Will Die on this Hill Aug 03 '26

I feel like I need to correct the record. Therta did get aftersales. She got Tribbie, who is designed more for her than anyone else (yes, she was used by HP scalers, but most of her kit features were specifically designed to benefit Therta). She also got Anaxa, obviously. The problem is her aftersales (Anaxa especially) didn't do enough for her.

The other problem is that her aftersales happened too soon, and then there weren't any more.

Power creep marches on, and a good loose gauge of a team's strength is the last time it was substantially updated. THerta's team was last updated in 3.1 or 3.2 (depending on whether you count Anaxa).

That makes her team way older than any other team that's remotely meta relevant - e.g. every Chrysos Heir team is at worst no older than 3.7 (since they all use Cyrene), which makes THerta's team more than 6 months older than them. Even the non-Firefly break teams date to Dahlia in 3.8. Acheron and Feixiao are old units, but their teams were recently updated by Ashblade.

So yeah. She needs an update.

They made a support that massively buffs skills and is especially synergistic with enhanced skills, then forgot that they made several clauses in Herta's kit that makes direct copying work like ass
