- How do I read a team card?
- The card is named after the operator it is built around, who takes the first slot. The badge in the header is Prydwen’s own tier for the team; each of the four slots names what that operator is doing in this team, not their general role, and the small icons under a slot are the operators who can take it instead, in the order Prydwen lists them.
- What does the one-line premise cover?
- The mechanic the four share (an Arts Reaction, a Physical Status, Vulnerable stacks) and the role each slot fills. It does not cover rotation order, SP economy or Potential thresholds: a squad can be mechanically right and still starve itself of SP. The operator pages carry that.
- Why are some teams off-meta?
- Because Prydwen’s own team tier list places them at T1 or below, usually because the carry has been overtaken by later releases, not because the team stopped working. An off-meta squad with the listed supports still clears; it clears more slowly than a popular one with the same investment.
- What if I don't own an alt for an empty slot?
- Build toward the listed alt with the highest priority you already have. A team card names replacements best first, not just any operator who could technically stand there, so the first name on the list is the one worth pulling next for that slot.
