Esme the Dancer Guide

• Legendary

Esme the Dancer earns a 3.7/5.0 rating because she is a high-utility specialist who excels in specific endgame niches but lacks the universal 'plug-and-play' dominance of S-Tier supports. Her 3.7 AI rating is a notable drawback, as her skill prioritization often requires manual intervention or complex team setup instructions to maximize efficiency. Her strengths lie in her dual-purpose A2 and her massive survivability buffs, which elevate her to an A-Tier status in Hydra. However, she is held back by a lack of a Revive or Cleanse, making her reliant on secondary supports in high-pressure envir
