Strat Amp (Strategist A.M.P) Patch 25.12

Strategist A.M.P (which will be referred to as "Strat AMP") is one of (if not) the most difficult composition to pilot in the game. If you do not high roll a Samira on level 8, it requires a lot of strong fundamentals to know how much you must roll before stabilizing (AKA building a board strong enough to win most if not all fights in your lobby, until you can roll or level again).

Be careful. While this composition was one of the top performing compositions the last two patches, it's performing slightly worse now due to the increase of playable reroll compositions, which results in higher average lobby tempo specifically on Stage 4. This board is weakest during Stage 4, and while it can cap very high, it will struggle immensely if you cannot find a stable board by early Stage 4, fast.

Generally speaking, if you can make it to Zac 2* with Samira 2*, you are often winning out the lobby.

One of the more common mistakes is not relying on Yuumi 2* as your primary damage during Stage 4 onwards. While Annies are important, Annie's items are actually less important than Yuumi when it comes to stabilizing on level 8. You can sometimes hold extra Yuumi's for a potential Yuumi 3*. Another common mistake is relying too much on combat augments in this line. Generally speaking, your augment priority should be gold > items > combat. Your Zac 2* with 50 blobs and a warmog's in the end-game IS your combat augment. Finally, Annie items are ideally mana generating ONLY. The faster you can summon Tibbers (or even two Tibbers!), the more likely you are to win fights. You must get her casting as much as possible.
