ok so now im gonna ask you something,why is asami a collab char?


1.her first attack deals only dm which makes her an assassin.
2.her second attack increases dm by team which makes her an collab char
3.her third skill stuns an opponent making her disruption.

so she is a assassin,disruption and a collab char at once.why did they choose her as an collab char.was it for balancing reasons?

Her attack doesn't make her an assassin, lol.

And her specialty is collaboration because her most powerful skill is Insight.

Probably to balance the numbers of characters in each specialty.

She is not an assassin because she only has one attack. Then i think she is more collaboration than disruption anyway because her "attacks" helps the team and her only disruption skill does 0 damage.

She is a collab character because of her Insight and here stun. The Insight and Calm help the team in one way or another. For example, She can stun one character, then Jyouzu can prep his attack, then since the character cannot do anything, Asami uses Insight and Jyouzu used Wakazashi strike to finish it off. Collab characters are not always healers, they can help the team out with Combo's and it was done to balance the game.

I have to agree with encore here.
In addition, her stun is useful to do things like pull off Kurai's perma stun; ex. Stun with Asami, while waiting for energy, then use the permastun. The same thing can be used with an affliction like dreamscape, allowing for 30 affliction guarunteed. Her stun also weaves into other stuns nicely.

Tbh, the specialties don't always make sense here. We could make a perfectly sensible argument for why she is a disruption character, too.

However, balance in numbers would be the number 1 reason as to why she is a collaboration.

@Encore, I love your sig. :laugh :laugh

So you could say that every stun is also Collaboration...

Well, she could be every speciality type but there are more characters who fit to more than one speciality (Yukigaaru, Shoji, Akira, Kurai etc.).

Let's imagine it this way. It's the very edge of why Asami's true potential lies.

Attack: 25 per green. Very VERY AVERAGE. So she's not assassination
Stun: 1 turn stun with 1 energy and 1 turn cooldown. AVERAGE!
Increase Damage of all enemies: You have never seen Asami in an AoE team? With Kurai or simply any melee/ranged AoE, it has insane potential.

Conclusion: Everything else is average EXCEPT INSIGHT. So she's a collab at her best.

She is a collab character because she is female.

That deserves a thumbs down. :oh

But yea if you use her like the Admins planned before her boost you would use Insight and Calm to help your teammates out.

At the beginning of the game, there were no female assassination characters or male collaboration characters. In region 2 they introduced one male collaboration character and one female assassination.

When they released new characters after that i think that most assassination characters were female and most collaboration characters ere male, probably to balance the gender/class ratios.

Woah, having an attack doesnt make someone as assassin. Based on that logic, every character in the game is an assassin.

Shes a collab because of Insight, it works well with AoE and is fairly powerful.

She's an Archer. The vast majority of ranged characters are Collab. Unless they have more specific skills based on stunning or in Tadashis case overpowered offensive skills.

The vast majority of ranged characters are female. The rest aren't collab. Correlation with her being an archer and her being collab is just the result of correlation between the amount of archers and the amount of females.
