Tsareena is a good Rapid Spin user in the tier, capable of tackling common entry hazard setters such as Krookodile and Rhyperior. While Tsareena's typing allows it to pivot into foes like Rotom-W and Gastrodon, it has to be wary of being crippled by status such as a burn. Knock Off allows Tsareena to cripple foes like Galarian Weezing, Incineroar, and Noivern on switch-in and prevents Ghost-types like Doublade and Chandelure freely pivoting into it. Triple Axel helps Tsareena KO Noivern and other Grass-types like Roserade. High Jump Kick is an option to hit Cobalion and OHKO Bisharp, the latter it can check reliably thanks to Queenly Majesty protecting it from a boosted Sucker Punch. U-turn helps Tsareena generate momentum against Pokemon like Galarian Weezing and reliably threatens Zarude and Celebi more than Triple Axel. A Jolly nature is preferred to outspeed Adamant Mamoswine and after a Rapid Spin boost, it can outspeed Noivern and OHKO it with Triple Axel. Heavy-Duty Boots is preferred to reduce Tsareena's susceptibility to entry hazards. Tsareena can run other items like Leftovers for passive recovery or a Lum Berry to help it pivot into Water-types like Gastrodon more easily; however, being more vulnerable to entry hazards like Spikes and Toxic Spikes limits its role as an entry hazard remover.
Tsareena is unable to keep entry hazards off the field against Galarian Weezing or severely dent it, so partners that can pressure it like Galarian Slowbro, Alolan Marowak, and Chandelure are appreciated. In return, Tsareena can remove foes like Gigalith and Rhyperior for the latter two and provide Rapid Spin support. Scyther, Noivern, and Talonflame, despite not wanting to directly switch into Tsareena, are able to revenge kill it, so partners like Rhyperior, Rotom-W, and Mamoswine are necessary. Rhyperior and Rotom-W can also help check Pokemon like Incineroar and Darmanitan that give Tsareena troubles. Rotom-W can also form a pivot core with Tsareena and help check Steel-types like Bisharp and Escavalier, which Tsareena struggles with. Heliolisk, Reuniclus, and Obstagoon can switch into and help pressure bulky Water-types like Rotom-W, Mantine, and Jellicent, which is appreciated due to Tsareena's vulnerability to a potential Scald or Will-O-Wisp burn. Reuniclus can also switch into Galarian Weezing and appreciates Tsareena crippling Incineroar and Steel-types like Escavalier and Copperajah. Cobalion can help check Bisharp and Zarude, offensively pressure Galarian Weezing and Incineroar, provide Stealth Rock support, and bring Tsareena in safely with Volt Switch against foes like Slowbro and Starmie. In return, Tsareena can cripple foes like Doublade and Noivern with Knock Off making it easier to remove them. Slowbro and Noivern can help switch into Water-types Tsareena struggles to pivot into such as Keldeo and Starmie and bring Tsareena in safely with Teleport and U-turn respectively. Sylveon can provide Tsareena with Wish and Heal Bell support to offset how easily Tsareena can be worn down.
