Czerny

"Hello, Doctor, I'm Czerny. My charm and interests are completely dedicated to my music. As for myself, I'm only a mundane musician, with no need for any more introduction."

-------------

"Is this your first time playing a piano? Can you read sheet music?"

"That's good, then I don't have to teach you from scratch."

"Then, relax your arms, remember to keep your shoulders down."

"Otherwise your neck will be constantly sour after the performance."

"Very good, now try to touch those keys."

"Tsk, the posture of your hands is too stiff. Are you nervous?"

Before you can answer, Czerny sat down beside you, reached over the piano, and played a few notes.

"Don't be nervous. I promise you, it will be a fantastic experience. Try to enjoy it."

First Impressions

Note: These are first impressions and based on conjecture since we don’t know the exact details. 

Czerny will be Arknights' third 5 Star Defender [Arts Protector], the fourth overall, with no 6 star in the Archetype yet to appear.  His role and abilities are similar to the other members of the archetype, which is a mix of defensive (especially arts based) and offensive Arts abilities. His talent provides both increased Arts resistance and some damage reflect. This along with the innate art resistance of the archetype, makes him a good option for Arts damage mitigation.

His first skill increases his attack and resistance, which seems a decent option if using him for either of his major roles, that of art damage mitigation or offensive support. His second skill makes him more likely to be attacked, increases his ATK every time he is attacked, and does AoE damage when the skill ends. The taunt is a relatively rare ability that synergizes well with his talent.

His most likely role from a meta-perspective seems to be his Arts damage mitigation. Currently, when this is needed, healing defenders are typically a stronger choice, as they provide a lot better overall support and flexibility. He will have to represent a very serious improvement in arts survivability to compete. This archetype remains a decent option for newer players with limited rosters as a source of melee arts damage or increased offensive support from blockers.
