### **Recommendations**
- **Season 10**: Build Overload teams (Yoimiya, Clorinde, Beidou) or Anemo crowd-control teams (Xiao, Sucrose). Save high-DPS units for boss fights.
- **Season 11**: Prioritize Freeze (Ayaka, Neuvillette) or Geo resonance (Albedo, Kachina) teams. Use Venti for mob-heavy stages.
- Check the Performance Prep menu to adjust difficulty and team setup. Avoid hoarding Fantasia Flowers; use them strategically for buffs or extra characters.
