How to Use Leonie
Due to her mount, Leonie is a very agile unit that can run laps around the battlefield and her reverence ability allows her to do insanely quick combos on enemies.
This allows you to take an aggressive playstyle. You can dash into the enemies, quickly perform combos on them and then retreat without being punished. Her attacks also have great knockback, so this will allow you to do damage to enemies without them being attack to attack you back.
Because of her Rivalry ability, it is important that you have a male adjutant whenever you’re using Leonie. This will make it so her Warrior Gauge fills up quicker, which will help you out a lot in the battlefield.
