Veronika Animus Overview

Veronika is an SSR Reason champion who excels at single-target control and team protection through a blend of buff manipulation and defensive support. As the Crimson Duchess of Hydra Bank, she brings a rare mix of utility and damage, making her a flexible pick for both offensive and defensive team comps.

Her kit features Shadow Thorn for [ATK-], Soul Bloom for team-wide shielding, and the impactful Spirit Circle, which steals and redistributes buffs, turning enemy advantages into team-wide strength. Veronika thrives in content where buff control and survivability are key, offering value in both PvE endurance fights and PvP matchups that require strategic responses to enemy setups.
