Kae (カエ Kae) is one of the playable characters in 100% Orange Juice!. She was added to the game in DLC 4 alongside Krila.

Passive

Add reverse value of Defense to Attack. -1 Defense when attacking.

Overview

Kae is a glass cannon, a character that deals lots of damage but can be taken down easily. The unit is constructed around a tricky passive ability that can enable her to deal massive damage under the proper circumstances. Kae's first passive ability adds the inverse of her Defense stat to her Attack stat. When coupled with her second passive effect, which decreases her Defense stat by 1 when attacking, Kae receives a natural boost of +2 to her Attack stat when she initiates a battle. This means Kae should always aim to strike first to get an additional +2 to her Attack stat, but she will also have the benefit of a -1 Defense stat when being attacked by an opponent. The main advantage to Kae is that she possesses some of the cheapest card combos that yield fast and powerful results. Cards such as  Rainbow-Colored Circle will give her a +3 Attack stat and +3 Evasion stat to effectively attack and dodge, while  I'm on Fire! can push her Attack stat to +4 with a level 1 battle card. Her low Recovery stat also allows her to get up quicker in the case of a misfire.

The main downside to Kae is that she is extremely frail as a result of her below average Health stat and need to constantly initiate battle. Similar to Suguri, Kae is a "glass cannon" able to deal large amounts of damage but if the player rolls poorly on evasion or does not have good combo cards, she will likely go down quickly. Kae also has to consider the use of defensive cards, such  Rbits, since it will lower her attack Stat.

Hyper

Kae's hyper is Blazing!. It inflicts a stock effect that adds 1 attack and subtracts 1 defense on Kae and every opponent within 2 panels (this includes diagonal) from Kae. This stack lasts for for the next 3 chapters. If Kae or an opponent is KO'd while under the effects of Blazing!, they will lose the stock effect. The effect itself can also be replenished and stacked multiple times by using another Blazing! before the effect expires. The effectiveness of the hyper begins to shrink after exceeding 3 stacks; however, as during battle Kae's attack cannot exceed +9.

Strategy

Blazing! is an extremely powerful high-risk Hyper that can be used to quickly deal massive damage to an opponent. The effect essentially works like  I'm on Fire! except for 3 chapters and with a stackable effect. Thus, like the card, the Hyper will give Kae a total boost of +2 Attack when the effect is active. As a result, the card itself is best used when Kae attacks first and has a further reduced defense stat to augment her attack, creating a dangerous situation for the opponent. The Hyper is best used to finish off an opponent (or opponents) that Kae is trailing, in hopes that Kae will not risk being KO'd as a result of her low defense stat. The player can also use the Hyper strategically to have an opponent within the effect's activation radius to lower their defense.

As to be expected, the Hyper pairs very well with with other damage increasing cards such as  I'm on Fire!. With a single stack of Blazing! and  I'm on Fire!, Kae will already have a +5 attack stat when attacking. Similar combos can also be made with  Heat 300% or
 Rainbow-Colored Circle, with the latter providing Kae the opportunity to evade damage and deal a second wave of damage.

The main disadvantage to Blazing! is that it leaves Kae vulnerable with a poor defense stat. If an opponent such as Star Breaker is trailing Kae,they may be able to take advantage of her weak defenses during this time. Further the opponent may have an increased attack if they were within the activation area of the Hyper.
