ZZZ 2.7 Banner Schedule & Phases
Version 2.7 features two main banner phases:
| Phase | Featured S-Rank | Rerun S-Rank / Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 | Nangong Yu (Ether / Stun) | Rerun: Lucia (Ether / Support); A-Rank: Nicole, Piper |
| Phase 2 | Cissia (Electric / Attack) | Rerun: Orphie & Magus (Fire / Attack); A-Rank: Pulchra, Ben |
⚠️ Rerun and A-Rank boosts are based on community observations; check in-game for official confirmation.
Phase Duration: ~3 weeks per phase.
Featured Agent Analysis
🔹 Nangong Yu – Ether / Stun (Support)
- Role: Crowd-control support; boosts Anomaly DPS teams.
- Team Fit: Replaces secondary Anomaly unit (Viven, Bernice, Sokaku) or, optionally, support.
-
Strengths:
- SR engine greatly increases Anomaly Impact
- Completes Angels of Delusion faction with Aria + Sunna
- F2P-friendly; strong for Anomaly starter teams
-
Pull Advice:
- Pull if running Anomaly-heavy or Miyabi teams
- Supports Alice or Yanahi teams as well
- Expert Tip: She’s support-first; do not expect her to carry fights alone.
🔹 Cissia – Electric / Attack (DPS / Support)
- Role: Electric DPS; buffs Seed but can function independently
-
Strengths:
- Buffs Crit Damage by ~25–30% for Seed
- Performs well on Electric content; comparable to Orphie buffs
- Flexible: can run as main DPS without Seed
- Pull Advice: Pull if you want strong Electric DPS or for collection purposes
- Expert Tip: Not meta-defining alone, but highly effective when paired with Electric teams
🔹 Seed – Rerun Electric Attack / Utility
Seed is not a new S-Rank agent in 2.7, but is widely discussed as a rerun option for Electric Attack/Utility teams. Unlike Nangong Yu and Cissia, Seed is not officially part of the new character lineup for Version 2.7 — this keeps the patch at two new S-Rank agents only.
Key Notes:
- Seed works best paired with Cissia for Electric team synergy.
- She offers a strong double-attack buff and utility for mid-tier and F2P-friendly builds.
- Pulling Seed is optional and depends on whether you already own Electric DPS units like Orphie or Trigger.
Tip: Clearly mark Seed as a rerun/speculative banner to avoid confusion. Only Nangong Yu and Cissia are officially confirmed new agents in 2.7.
Banner Value Analysis: Pull Now vs. Save for 3.0
| Consideration | Pull Now (2.7) | Save for 3.0 (Speculation) |
|---|---|---|
| Meta Impact | Immediate Angels of Delusion completion (Nangong Yu + Cissia) | Potential S-Rank releases and meta shake-up |
| Account Value | Strong Ether Stunner (Nangong Yu) + Electric DPS (Cissia) | Possible high-power Season 3.0 agents |
| F2P Viability | Very high (Nangong Yu; Cissia usable for Seed synergy; Seed rerun optional) | High, depends on 3.0 gifts and free pulls |
| Banner Notes | Phase 1: Nangong Yu + Lucia rerun; Phase 2: Cissia + Orphie/Magus reruns; Seed available as rerun | 3.0 may introduce new S-Rank agents or major meta shifts |
💡 3.0 is rumored to introduce major characters and meta shifts, but details are not confirmed.
