some thoughts on sMika
>damage is absolutely ridiculous as expected
>no more misska
>takes some proper setup to go into murder mode so she's not quite as flexible as og Mika
>also not nearly as tanky as og Mika, which in combination with her positioning and armor can make her quite annoying and she will need babysitting
>about as powerful as mAris without the malding, meaning sMika will probably be a premiere Blue ST from now on, especially for Goz
i would still say that dHina is the strongest ST overall, mostly thanks to her safe positioning and sHoshino buffs, but if you can babysit Mika properly her damage output can be even higher than dHina at her best. obviously she's going to be used for some sort of Purple ST raid in the future which will have red damage of some sort, and she's basically the "best" blue ST at the moment - at least until 5th anniversary inevitably changes that with mechaAris.
