NEW CANDICE GAMEPLAY ANIMATIONS - SHE Is Our Finesse Support?? | Bleach Soul Resonance

Storyline / Context Discussed

• The video centers on Bleach Soul Resonance content tied to a Quincy/Sternritter invasion scenario and an Ichigo recall cutscene sequence.
• A Candace boss fight is shown as part of a “Memory of the Past” / “Stars”-style stage where Ichigo relives earlier battles.
• The cutscene/battle segment includes references to:
  • Ichigo descending to engage
  • Kimpachi Zaraki clashing with Grammy Tommo
  • Bambies attacking Kimpachi after he overwhelms the opponent

The creator suggests this is likely connected to upgraded boss animations, and sets expectations for Candace becoming a playable unit.

Gameplay Highlights Showcased / Described

Upgraded Candace Boss Fight

• The streamer states there are new/expanded Candace animation sequences, including:
  • Lightning / black lightning effects
  • “Whole ass new animations”
• The creator highlights Candace’s model and visual effects, including her wings popping from the top.

Fight Flow / Mechanics Impressions

• Candace appears to perform counters and follow-up attack animation chains.
• Ichigo is shown tanking hits, and the creator comments that the combat animations are “sick,” especially for units like Udyu.

Team / Composition Discussion

• The creator believes the goal is a complete Quincy “finesse” lineup featuring Bambietta, Udyu, and Candace, completing the collab’s unit roster.
• They also mention loading screens for Ichigo, Bambietta, Uryu, and Candace as additional evidence that Candace is coming next.

Key Strategies, Build/Kit Expectations, and Balancing Tips

Role Expectation for Candace

• Candace is predicted to be a Finesse support designed to reduce “field time hogging,” letting Udyu stay on-field longer for damage.
• The creator implies her kit supports more efficient rotation by acting like a support that doesn’t require much on-field time.

Power Creep / Performance Expectations

• The creator expects support power creep, meaning Candace could be stronger numerically than prior supports.
• They compare supports (e.g., Mayuri vs. Zylapro), arguing one is generally better as a support due to superior dupes and support output.
• For Candace, they anticipate she could be “number-wise” insane, while acknowledging she may not be best-in-everything immediately due to kit timing and potentially missing team coverage.

Concerns About the Current Finesse Team Gap

They argue Udyu may be the weak link, citing:

• His damage is described as burst-based, not sustained/between-damage.
• Kit progression (e.g., reaching B6) may take too long—even if B6 is “good.”
• Specific upgrade concerns such as:
  • B4 battlefield damage being only 60%
  • A suggestion that higher multipliers may be needed

Specific Proposed Fixes / Tuning Requests

For Udyu

• Add or boost battlefield skill buffs
• Improve boundaries
• Don’t “shaft” the bond (implying weak or missing synergy/scaling)
• Potentially increase multiplier / B-skill effects so his damage doesn’t feel underwhelming

For Candace

• Ideally be universal or broadly useful, not locked behind only one team
• Be strong for Finesse, but not leave players stuck if they don’t care about every Sternritter unit

General Animation-Based Optimism

• The creator believes the animations suggest the collab had more plans, and hopes gameplay matches the polish.
