Overview
More aggressive than her usual self and ready to save her pudding, QP (Dangerous) is a heavily modified version of centered completely around a unique passive. Like QP, QP (Dangerous) possesses an above-average HP stat of 5, a neutral ATK and DEF stat, and a neutral REC, but has a debuffed EVD stat. These stats provide QP (Dangerous) with no natural advantages other than HP to survive, with her decreased EVD unfortunately resulting in more difficulty with dodging low rolls. However, her passive enables the player to change this. When holding any card with "pudding" in its name, the player will receive a stat buff, enabling QP (Dangerous) to adapt to any scenario. For example, in a match full of aggressive opponents, the player can try to get Bad Pudding and Portable Pudding to turn QP into a tank with high DEF and automatic healing. Or, in a match full of fragile characters, the player can collect Dangerous Puddings to crush opponents with a high ATK stat. Or more simply, the player can take a balanced approach by trying to collect 1 of each. Although much of this is heavily affected by the player's draw luck, QP (Dangerous)'s Hyper also enables the player to build up cards quickly or switch their strategy mid-game which can be very useful.
This passive also carries an inherent downside. While the ability to gain stats by holding cards is extremely advantageous, it is also a great hindrance to more complex strategy due to the need for hand space. Similar to Gift cards, "pudding" cards must be held to keep the stat boosts, and so the player must hold as many as possible in order to maximize its potential. This means the player will need to rely solely on stats as opposed to any greater card combo strategy. A passive ATK or DEF stat of +3 is incredible, but in order to achieve this, the player will need to have a hand full of Dangerous Pudding or Bad Pudding. This leaves the player with zero room for protection cards if they encounter strong opponent retaliation. Likewise, the "pudding" cards with the best utility when used are some of the worst for QP (Dangerous)'s passive. Pudding and Portable Pudding can be critical for keeping a unit alive when used, but in terms of synergy with the passive, the former only adds to QP (Dangerous)'s -1 EVD stat, while the latter is hard to draw due to being limited to Max 1 per player deck. Another issue is that since both Bad Pudding and Dangerous Pudding are traps, they can easily be used against the player.
Playstyle
QP (Dangerous) is an unusual case in that what strategy approach the player takes will likely depend on the cards the player draws early on. The player will likely want to focus on stars norma and 
Bonus panels due to her neutral statline. 
Draw panels and "pudding" cards can then further affect the player's choice. If the player draws defensive boosts, then stars norma will likely be the best option. However, if the player draws at least 1 Dangerous Pudding, then the player may want to change their strategy to wins norma and focus on 
Encounter panels.
