Run killers

Clumping into her AOE cycle: one cast can Freeze or Stun multiple cats and collapse your turn order.
Forgetting which spell is primed next: you position for the wrong threat and give the cast full value.
Leaving Lucy in place after a dangerous spell is primed instead of moving her or rotating your team out of the pattern.

Positioning rules

Against MC Blizz, do not stack near Lucy once Freeze is about to resolve.
Against MC Flamethrower, move cats out of the cone directly in front of her or rotate behind her.
Against MC Thunder, avoid standing on diagonal X-shaped lines when that spell is next.
If a primed cast is dangerous, move Lucy herself instead of only retreating your whole team.
After any control hit, re-spread immediately instead of bunching back together.
