When Elsa Bloodstone was released she was kind of an afterthought. She was released in the month of Guillotine 2099 and Man-Thing, two of the most hyped champions of the time.
I know that I overlooked her but maybe I shouldn’t have. After receiving her as a 5* I’ve found that she is in fact very good for so much content.
Damage is great from the start no build required in previous fights or within the fight which is great for content like EQ. However the damage output does not dissipate over the duration of the fight, if anything it gets better. She also has access to a lot of crits and red numbers
Her debuffs are great. Busted is unique and there’s nobody who’s immune to it. The incinerate debuff is also good and it can be changed to a coldsnap. There’s only 3 (technically) champions who are immune to both (Silver Surfer, HT, Mystic Doombots)
Now an incinerate debuff is great, you can stack them and reduce regen. Coldsnap is also great, it shuts down all evasion which is a great and useful utility.
Debuff shrug off is also brilliant. If you have a non-damaging debuff places in you you can shrug off one debuff every second, this includes debuffs from suicide masteries or stuff like abominations poison. She also gains a precisions when she does this so that’s another bonus.
Finally the crits and red numbers. Elsa Bloodstone has the highest base crit rating in the game alongside Hit-Monkey. She also has access to lots of precision meaning that she can get (almost) guaranteed critical hits which is a great counter to armoured opponents. Now with great crits comes great red numbers.
All of these aspects combined means that Elsa Bloodstone has both good utility and damage. She melts opponents two or three times her own health in seconds. She also doesn’t need a signature ability but once it’s unlocked it’s definitely worth investing in as it just means more damage.
Overall I think she deserves a space in the god tier lineup

Shorter fights - get 3/4 busted debuffs on them and launch Sp1. Now you have high crit rate. Then just get to an L2 and slaughter them. If they survive that it’s a longer fights
Longer fights - get 2 busted on them and go for L1. Now alternate between Busted and Incinerate rounds until L3. Launch L3 whilst you have 3 rounds in both. From now on watch those cruelties and launch L1s or L2s. In these fights do try and keep up a 100% uptime on at least 1 precision buff.
Hope that was helpful
Short fights (same parameter as above): if they don’t evade I like to dump all busted debuffs first, then incinerate debuffs. If they do evade then rotate to keep coldsnap up. Then you can do one of two things. You can do the above OR power manage your bar at an sp2 and pop it right as your busted debuffs reload. Doing the second option right you can have about 7-8 busted debuffs on at a time when unduped. This results in HUGE damage bonus and I would rotate that. 🙂
I’ll send a video
Sorry if I confused you guys.
Anyway the point was I remember hearing that at that point no one had really discovered Elsa’s true potential or proper rotation which had me really curious and wondering if anyone’s figured it out since.
