Simple play pattern

Use Cantarella as a setup piece: apply their buff, effect, or off-field pressure first.
Swap back to the carry once their useful window is active.
If their setup feels late, add Energy Regen before chasing more damage.

Difficulty: Flexible
Safety: Utility support
Data note: Reviewed for Version 3.5

Cantarella is most valuable when their buff, element, or mechanic matches the carry you want to build.
