Reverse: 1999 Best Teams

Team comps and Arcanist pairings that work together.

Each team below is built from the game's own skill data: the mechanic tags (Burn, Poison, Moxie, Crit…) are read straight out of each Arcanist's kit, so the reason a team works is something you can check yourself on the character pages. Teams marked "No Euphoria needed" contain no member whose ranking depends on an unlocked Euphoria.

Semmelweis
Buffer In the Shadow

Mineral · Reality DMG · Array + Moxie — offensive Array anchor, Euphoria required.

Getian
Debuffer Same Old Story

Beast · Reality DMG · Array + Crit + Moxie — second Array anchor, Euphoria required.

Sentinel6★
Sentinel
Buffer The Fighter's Best Wishes

Mineral · Reality DMG · Bullet + Crit + Bloodtithe — converts Crit hits into Bloodtithe, no Euphoria required.

Rubuska6★
Rubuska
Healer The Wandering Improviser

Mineral · no fixed DMG type · Heal + Crit + Moxie + Bloodtithe — second Bloodtithe source through healing, no Euphoria required.

Why this team works

Semmelweis and Getian both drop an Array and tag Moxie — placing them together means their Array effects and Moxie generation overlap on the field instead of competing for the same square. Sentinel and Rubuska both carry Bloodtithe, converting the extra Crit/Heal actions the Array encourages into a shared resource pool.

Tuesday
And the Maid Says

Spirit · no fixed DMG type · Poison + Crit + Array — main Array carry.

Semmelweis6★
Semmelweis
Buffer From the Depths

Mineral · Reality DMG · Array + Moxie — second Array source, Euphoria required.

Getian6★
Getian
Debuffer Same Old Story

Beast · Reality DMG · Array + Crit + Moxie — third Array stack, Euphoria required.

Kiperina6★
Kiperina
Buffer Aurora After Winter

Star · Mental DMG · Shield + Impromptu + Crit + Cleanse — support core, feeds Crit to the team.

Why this team works

Tuesday, Semmelweis and Getian all tap into Array together with Poison — combining it across three kits at once outperforms any single carry doing it alone. Kiperina keeps the line-up alive with Shield so that payoff has time to land.

Team building — quick answers

What is the best team in Reverse: 1999?

There is no single best team — the game rewards matching your damage dealer to the stage. In practice the strongest builds stack one mechanic (Burn, Poison, Crit) from several Arcanists at once, then add one Survival unit so the damage-over-time has time to land. Pick the team above whose damage dealer you already own.

Can I clear the game without Euphoria?

Yes. Every team marked "No Euphoria needed" on this page is fielded entirely by Arcanists whose ranking does not assume an unlocked Euphoria, so a free-to-play account can build it as-is at Insight III.

How many Arcanists does a team need?

Four slots, but only three do the work in most fights: a damage dealer, a support that amplifies them, and a Survival or second support. The fourth slot is a substitute — use it to raise bond, or swap in one of the flex picks listed under each team.
