Qiqi
Qiqi is a durable healer with large, consistent healing, obtainable straight from the standard banner so she's easy to own. Her weaknesses are a slightly awkward healing method (you must hit enemies for off-field healing) and no team damage buffs. She fits Freeze teams best, where you want both healing and Cryo application. The key is enough Energy to loop her Burst; farm the Ocean-Hued Clam set to turn overhealing into damage. Moderate investment carries her through the whole game.
