SSR Ice Tank Tank
Poseidon is an SS tank who becomes a wall: her ULT grants +123.7% max HP and raises a moving [Sea Wall] that gives allies behind it block rate and damage reduction, her passive stacks [Tide Law] (+27% DEF each, up to 12) and opens in [High Tide] immediately, and her auto permanently stacks +15.2% max HP while dragging ranged enemies closer. Positioning matters: your team stands behind the wall.
