- Due to her inability to acquire merges and lackluster stats all around outside of Speed, Anna’s main niche is as a rotating bonus unit.
- The Deck Swabber is one of Anna’s best options, granting her some much needed damage output and survivability by debuffing the foe’s Attack and Defense by 5 in addition to negating their Attack and Defense buffs, provided she isn’t adjacent to an ally. She can also utilize a Slaying Hammer to gain effective damage against the plethora of Armors that frequent Arena, although in Aether Raids the Deck Swabber is more useful overall.
- For scoring as well as possible, high SP skills such as Galeforce, Aether, Rally Atk/Spd+, and Joint Drive Atk are ideal. Galeforce is also a solid special for Anna overall, although ally assistance in the form of Infantry Pulse can help make her Galeforces more consistent. Joint Drive Atk is also helpful in general, as it gives her a much needed boost to her damage output while also buffing her allies.
- Offensive A slot skills such as Swift Sparrow 3 and Atk/Spd Solo 4 give her some much needed attacking power and extra Speed to secure follow-up attacks with.
- For Anna’s B slot, Null Follow-up is a standout option, as it handily counters all forms of follow-up negation, such as Brave Hector’s refined Maltet, in addition to stopping the foe’s guaranteed follow-up attacks. Wings of Mercy can also be used to give Anna some extra mobility.
- Finally, Flashing Blade and Swift Sparrow allow Anna to activate her Specials more quickly if she outspeeds the foe, or simply give her another offensive boost when attacking, respectively.

- Anna can also utilize an Enemy Phase build to some success due to the strength of inheritable axes such as the Deck Swabber.
- Luna allows Anna to reduce her foe’s defense by 50% when it triggers, giving her a much easier time breaking through bulky opponents. Aether remains ideal for scoring, however.
- Distant Counter scores highly and also gives Anna the ability to counterattack at range, letting her counterattack and KO frail ranged units.
- Null C-Disrupt gives Anna the ability to nullify counterattack prevention skills such as Firesweep and Dazzling Staff, although Anna can still make good use of other B slots such as Null Follow-Up and Spurn(due to her high Speed).
- Joint Drive Atk gives Anna a much needed Attack boost when within two spaces of an Ally, as well as granting an Attack boost to allies within 2 spaces during combat.
- Finally, Sacred Seals such as Mirror Stance and Atk/Def Solo are good options for her due to the additional stats they provide.
Strengths
She's Free?
As a free rotating bonus unit, she can be invested in as a consistently available bonus if desired?
Weaknesses
Lackluster Statline Outside of Speed
Aside from her great Speed, Anna’s stats are incredibly lacking. In particular, her poor Attack means she will struggle to deal considerable damage to physically bulky opponents including blue foes she has an advantage against such as Legendary Chrom and Brave Hector, although this can be alleviated to some extent if one is willing to give her an Attack asset via Trait Fruit. In addition, her poor Defense leaves her unlikely to survive more than one hit from physical foes without additional support from allies.
No Merges
Another one of her biggest flaws is her inability to attain merges unlike most other units, meaning she's permanently stuck at +0 and cannot merge to remove her bane if she gains an asset with trait fruit, in addition to having a low score ceiling as a bonus and being unable to improve her lackluster statline outside of Dragonflowers.
Severely Outclassed
Aside from her status as a bonus unit, Anna is thoroughly outclassed by nearly every Axe infantry unit in the game due to her lack of access to merges, underwhelming statline, and terrible exclusive weapon, and other Axe infantry units outperform her through either a good exclusive weapon(Barst/Arthur) a solid statline(Echidna/Ross/Mustafa) or go for a home run and outperform her statwise in addition to having better exclusive weapons(Osian/Rinkah/Annette/Raven). With all this considered, there is very little reason to use Anna as anything but a bonus unit outside of character bias(in which case, have fun and don’t let anyone stop you).
