What do you guys think about orion as a booster vs bernard in galleon X julie?

frozen spindle
#

It helps if you are blind yoloing a defense, but you have to be aware that julie needs a lot more speed than with bernard

#

Otherwise i think most people would rather just use bernard and have a cracked julie instead and kill through will runes

tacit dome
frozen spindle
#

What i mean by yolo is going in unscouted

#

But most people probably wont suggest this orion team, as there are probably much safer blind options

earnest shore
#

Bernard has better base speed, better stats and better cleanup potential while also reducing spd requirement for other units

tacit dome
#

#6 is mandatory for me from this list I'm assuming? #announcements message

craggy hornetBOT
tacit dome
#

#10 is moore tomoe ethna

quartz crescent
#

Yes 6 is great

tacit dome
#

#8 seems good too but I desperately need nora I feel

quartz crescent
#

6 has Cami which is top notch but yeah Bp will come out soon I reckon

tacit dome
#

Yeah

#

I'm gonna see if I can wait to summon on this one

quartz crescent
#

Nora is great for Def but yeah I value Cami here for the Offense aspect

tacit dome
#

I wouldn't mind a dupe cami

#

The thing is I can't make any meaningful defenses

#

That is the problem I have right now

quartz crescent
#

I mean if your WR is good enough Nora is a good grab too but hey, luckily both are on the same list

tacit dome
#

Good news

#

My winrate is not

quartz crescent
#

So not need to exclude anything

tacit dome
#

:D;;;

#

But I want to be able to make one meaningful defense

quartz crescent
#

Yeah I mean 6 gives you the best of both worlds

tacit dome
#

And right now I don't feel like I can

quartz crescent
#

Yeah Manon Nora is great

tacit dome
#

If I had martina or something then ok but no martina :D

#

I can't make any meaningful manon defenses it feels like

quartz crescent
#

Without a stripper and op Ld its tough yeah

#

But maaaaybe just maaaaybe C2U will decide to nerf some offense units and give us more Defense options hmm

tacit dome
#

It would be fantastic

#

But probably not lol

#

like maybe cami

#

but that's about it

tacit dome
#

@frozen spindle

tacit dome
#

pretty good progress I think, i'm surprised how far I am off max hero though still ConcernFroge

Look at all them gains 🙌

tacit dome
#

What do you all think about this artifact for seara on defense? I feel like it could be quite good since I'm running a very yolo style offense (Seara clara theomoars)

thin oxide
#

bomb dmg is good

inland sedge
#

Does your seara have high acc

#

Nice art

dull ruin
#

how's it going?

tacit dome
#

you can see

#

i'm streaming

#

could I get some more suggestions vs nana nora dom? I think the shren kahli mephisto one is pretty good if I just kill nora first, but I'm not entirely sure what else would be good. i'd be open to more mephisto counters. i thought that shren/kahli konamiya mephisto was fine but i've lost two attacks this siege with it

inland sedge
#

You can’t use a full fat shren for these I think I ran like a 205 one

tihs is with speed tower only enabled

#

@inland sedge i just got chain stunned/taunted by nora + nana until i died.

#

originally I screwed up and brought teon because I was thinking oh, the revive is safer. that was probably the stupidest thing i've ever done on offense

#

then the second one i used kona and still had the same problem

tacit dome
inland sedge
#

I see a Julie peepoblush

tacit dome
#
  1. Could use tesa lead instead but I figured it doesn't matter too much. Otherwise standard.
  2. Standard. Learned a lot about piloting from nup. Ty nup. peepoHeart
  3. Loss - The good news is I can't imagine myself possibly making a sillier comp than this in the future. I was thinking that teon would help with safety with the revive. You know, with mephisto. Oops. I actually did have shren on a decently tanky build but I got cc'd until I lost.
  4. Loss - I figured I would be fine, just do the same thing but with konamiya. And without shren since I only own one. It was not good. I think next time I will try something like tesa racuni camilla/talc instead. I'll also run the shren/kahli/mephisto team next time into it.
  5. Standard.
  6. Scouted, recleaved.
  7. Standard, not safe but best I can do.
  8. Standard.
  9. So this one was interesting. I had two guild mates lose to this. One lost when trying to shoot the covenant, and another lost when trying to nuke odin with some fire unit, I forget what it was. So.. no -wind. So I lushened it.
  10. I can't believe this is a defense that actually exists in g3.
tacit dome
#

I think I've used both julie and lushen in the last 3 sieges lol

#

The thing is every time I've done it I have not just straight killed all three mons. My DD runes are still very much despair

#

This was julie/lushen

quartz crescent
#

For 7.) You can just try Triana Vigor Elucia over Windy, to me it just feels like Windy gives Eshir extra damage from S3

#

Triana has def lead which is decent still and has a one-hit capability to secure you also has cleanse and sustain to get out of Clara

tacit dome
#

I actually don't really ever use s2 on windy in this comp

quartz crescent
#

I meant his initial shield after Clara s3s

tacit dome
#

Ahh.

quartz crescent
#

he doesnt do much if you dont do s2 because eshir outside of giving eshir shields for your team

tacit dome
#

more cleanse is safer

quartz crescent
#

I feel like generally Triana cleansing possibly+Elucia having odds to not get stunned and just Lock them down is much safer

tacit dome
#

thank you for the suggestion

#

Going to put that in my notes right now

quartz crescent
#

As for 3+4 you got the right conclusion, Tesa Racuni+Water Tank is amazing against that just make sure to focus great artifacts onto Tesa and Racuni since Nana on Damage hurts a lot

#

Tesa on Destroy is also great here since keeping Noras Sustain off of S1 is annoying considering Nana+her can stun you creating more sustain for them

tacit dome
#

I think i've only ever ran tesa off destroy once or twice

#

I value it very highly

quartz crescent
#

Well in the end it depends on the comp whether Destroy is necessary

#

but generally its handy to have

tacit dome
#

Right.

tacit dome
#

can we all agree to not talk about the teon mephisto incident?

#

like that one didn't happen

#

the game gave me two mephistos so i could bring a teon as my booster

thin oxide
#

you killed dom first right

tacit dome
thin oxide
#

yea i dont really know if there is a super safe way to beat this with that type of meph cleave

#

i think you already know/realize shren kona meph is the best but i've still lost with that

tacit dome
#

if I didn't know before I definitely know now

tacit dome
#

i am unsure what to make dupes of next for 2a

#

i feel like i'm starting to get to a point of where it's somewhat well rounded

#

could i get a second opinion on what dupes i may be lacking?

thin oxide
#

maybe kahli? if you have a few of all the basic ones it's really up to you and your playstyle

tacit dome
#

you know

#

you're right, we talk about her so often

#

same with shren

#

i'll make another kahli and shren

thin oxide
#

I wouldn’t do shren

#

If you want light nuker just use taru

tacit dome
#

hmmm okay

thin oxide
#

There’s not many places I like shren as a bruiser. Really the only one that felt good was shren triana hwadam into the Odin Theo stuff from a while ago

tacit dome
#

I just like to pair her with mephisto since I have two

#

but you're absolutely right about kahli, I have at least 3 offenses I routinely use that use kahli so

thin oxide
#

There is no specific synergy between meph and shren

tacit dome
#

I think she does help with safety after you nuke the target you're trying to kill a bit more than taru does

#

But dhole energy is a valuable resource and taru is easy to build several of. Plus I don't have infinite high elementals either

#

It's more about an "element neutral" ignore defense

thin oxide
#

Yea I just find that it’s either unneeded, or not enough

tacit dome
#

Understandable

thin oxide
#

Taru gets similar dmg to shren btw

#

On similar rune quality, all things considered

tacit dome
#

You think so? I feel like the base stat/multipler difference is significant

thin oxide
#

On my alt for some reason taru gets way more than shren

tacit dome
#

Is it because of the CR difference in your runes?

thin oxide
#

So it seems that at low end taru is even better

tacit dome
#

I generally am using shren with her lead

tacit dome
thin oxide
#

you can see for yourself where your runes are, in the end i don't think anyone can say that shren will outdamage taru by a significant amount

tacit dome
#

That makes sense. I've had a couple times where shren has saved me dying on the next turn with mephisto to double or triple procs. That part I value

#

To me I kind of feel the opposite after hearing it, if their damage is comparable, that would mean I like shren more, since I value the safety she can bring, but yeah, I don't even have the high elementals either way, so I'll just build a taru if I'm gonna do something like that

quartz crescent
#

Tbh Shren is very niche

inland sedge
#

make bernards shrug

quartz crescent
#

Or Roids

#

1 is very low imO

inland sedge
#

roid is v eu meta i think haha - global doesnt use him much right now

quartz crescent
#

But in the end it depends on your playstyle if you have runes to back it up cleave is free wr

#

possible yeah we loooove Triana Roid +1 but Meta will shift now

inland sedge
#

do you use roid into monte

quartz crescent
#

Roid Triana Chacha into Mihyang Eshir Monte all the way yes

inland sedge
#

i saw khmun roid triana used in EU finals

quartz crescent
#

or cleave if info

inland sedge
#

but we still found you just lose if triana gets targeted

quartz crescent
#

Thats also fine yes but to be fair I dont even remember these defs

inland sedge
#

there isnt enough protection there

quartz crescent
#

I think it was Eshir Cichlid Monte?

inland sedge
#

mihyang cichlid monte

quartz crescent
#

Oh thats old

inland sedge
#

was last season finals

#

in EU and global

quartz crescent
#

Yeah Khmun Roid Triana was the main off

#

Often enough you could get away in 2v3s which was pretty handy but if they are full commited nuke builds and they roll on you its tough yeah

inland sedge
#

yeah in our finals every single one was vio high dmg everything

#

and we lost a lot with it

quartz crescent
inland sedge
#

(well more than you want in finals)

quartz crescent
#

But lemme look what else we had

inland sedge
#

like i think chichlid AI is bad enough that if we had just committed to lushen every one we woulda had higher wr

#

even with swift mixed in

quartz crescent
#

Yeah her AI is atrocious but I guess its still the risk

#

That deters people

#

Because nowadays there are even swift Montes

inland sedge
#

i did khmun roid twice and lushened it twice i think

#

ya but swift monte isnt a risk to lushen if ur not slow

#

just cich because b ase speed

quartz crescent
#

In Mihyang Setups to just outspeed Konas

inland sedge
#

kona postthisdog

#

you forget im in a whale guild

quartz crescent
#

If you have Premium Setups like 3 Dovas or so

inland sedge
#

we got people with 10 miris

quartz crescent
#

Ahhh Miri hmm i guess she works on some 4* but its still scary her cleanup is so ehh

#

But yeah into that Mihyang Monte+Non fire its fine if you can contest it not sure how the Speed between them is

#

Okay its equal terms between them

jolly swift
#

I have two and use both in galleon Bernard julie but is there another place for him

inland sedge
jolly swift
#

Oops all Julie cleave

inland sedge
#

There is a few others but i mostly Julie

jolly swift
#

How many do you have?

#

I may build a third set

#

Also do you rune swap all 3 units?

inland sedge
#

I have two Julie’s Runed so if I use a third copy I need to swap Julie runes

#

I have 6 galleons Runed

#

I swap set for Bernard every hit since speed matters a lot

cunning narwhal
#

share an example julie? She has been on my todo list for too long

Just tuned ,max cr and max dmg

thanks!

gleaming vapor
#

@inland sedge can u share the artis u normally use with those julies

#

mine stats are pretty similar but I'm too scared to use her idk why

thin oxide
#

you should also be aware that the julie team is not just julie

#

part of its strength is that both galleon and bernard are super op bruisers that cleanup very well

#

this isn't like a miri lushen team where if you don't 1 shot everything then you get 1v3'ed because miri dova do jack shit

#

make sure your galleon and bernard are runed very well. galleon needs to be on vio and have damage. bernard also needs to have damage. you can't give him just flat main stats with only spd thinking he just boosts and nothing else

gleaming vapor
#

oh yeah I've runed both pretty good as well

#

since I've read your post

#

I'm just rly always ultra scared of cleaving

#

and using snipers

#

I really need to solve that issue

#

I guess

thin oxide
#

just try it out

#

and understand that the avg julie fight isn't "everything dies to julie"

#

it's maybe 1 thing dies? but something else is on will and survives, and the 3rd guy resisted the def break and also survives

#

but galleon bernard clean up

gleaming vapor
#

Makes sense

#

Bernard looks like this

#

if I run him on not flat stats

#

I guess I'm scared cause he looks slow

How do we feel about malaka sian triana vs eshir monte kinki?

inland sedge
#

I feel like anything triana just has a decent chance of getting dead to 1 roll triana

#

It’s like 80-85wr prolly

tacit dome
#

what do you use into this? still double revive?

#

i've seen khmun racuni malite but it seems very bad

inland sedge
#

It’s easier to cleave because no speed lead

tacit dome
inland sedge
#

Swift eshir also feels kinda weak here tbh

#

You can gamble vio eshir and prolly chacha imme copper it

tacit dome
#

wait

#

that's really smart

inland sedge
#

It’s kinda Intel only tho

#

But I feel like no one runs swift eshir the ai is so dog

tacit dome
#

surely nobody actually runs

#

swift eshir without speed lead here

#

right

#

that sound so sus

inland sedge
#

I’ve also seen copper trap Monte but it’s rare

tacit dome
#

okay honestly if i get copper trap monte'd i'll take the loss

#

i think these people are all running some nem monte bullshit

inland sedge
#

Should be pretty fine then

tacit dome
#

1 - Standard. Still feels scary and would like more suggestions. I only did 28k to grego with +18% dark on my best runes. Maybe next time use covenant lead? I was scared of getting outsped
2 - Loss - Unbelievably bad piloting. Put mikene s3 on teon to have him revive as he was about to die. Eshir s3 -> strip -> lose.
3 - Bad. Hraesvelg sonia/copper imesety shushu
4 - Standard
5 - Awful. Nothing to say
6 - Bad. Triana is needed for this and even then it can still easily be a loss
7 - **Loss **- Good, bad build. Copper needs to be 179 at least or he never gets a turn and thus s3 cd never cycles. Maybe 205 if possible.
8 - Bad. Risky but necessary.
9 - This felt very very strong. Not sure what everyone thinks of it but it was definitely good. Also I am pretty sure I used xing lead but maybe I am wrong
10 - Unsafe. Would like suggestions. Maybe just velajuel on hp% slot 6 and play to live with 100% res? I feel like this wins

quartz crescent
#

Wanna know whats good against this Eshir Kinki Monte?

#

Windy Teon Lushen is great if you have the runes

cunning narwhal
quartz crescent
#

It says replace Fran with Triana yes, but Bombs in general are never the best option

tacit dome
#

Triana I think is always a bit risky vs monte. She can get low rolled and die always

tacit dome
#

I went violent revenge since there is no sustain. If you were hitting something with sustain then destroy is probably better, and ultimately the revenge set is fairly inconsequential

inland sedge
#

eshir has 13k base hp and hp lead ur not killing that with lushen unless you're hitting a cd eshir

#

windy 1v1ing kinki is legit tho

tacit dome
#

how much CR do we suggest runing odin with in odin tesa riley?

gleaming vapor
#

52

#

52+33 = 85 with elemental advantage = 100

tacit dome
#

you don't get 5 stacks consistently or to start with riley, that is why i am asking

ruby torrent
tacit dome
#

Did I do anything wrong here? I felt like I played properly. I had -wind on camilla, I think next time i should use +water maybe

#

Here are the runes. I felt like I went in well prepared

#

I was trying to freeze theomars as he would proc his passive to keep things safe

#

But i hardly missed it

tacit dome
#

Here is a recording of the offense we had spoken about awhile ago, susano elucia jultan vs geldnir liu mei tesarion

#

I made the adjustments you suggested, I think the 50% res definitely made a difference on susano since he didnt' get def broken

thin oxide
#

i hit this def a few times recently too so i've thought about it some more since then. i ended up using vigor elucia yeonhwa. similar idea but less dmg and tankier

thin oxide
# tacit dome
  1. i know a lot of others have camilla on the slot 4 cr build but personally i like her on CD. she's always the last one to die, you can afford to give her more dmg at the cost of tankiness. even if you don't do slot 4 cd you can keep her on slot 4 cr but use some of those weird other runes with high cd subs but low or no cr
#
  1. skillup your windy, no s1 skillups make it really hard to land slow. the slow is huge against both theo and sav
#
  1. you tried too hard to perfectly time killing shot on theo with camilla s2. it just took you forever to actually kill theo and you gave the enemy too many chances to string together a bunch of procs which it did
#

if you want to tunnel on theo you should just commit to it without trying to time things perfectly

#

sometimes you can also try targeting other stuff first. it definitely doesn't hurt to throw out windy s1's on other units at the beginning and try to see if they're on squishy builds or not and it may end up being better to kill someone else first

tacit dome
# thin oxide 1) i know a lot of others have camilla on the slot 4 cr build but personally i l...
  1. i will take a look - i think that I will just have to fully swap camilla then, this was the best build I could get without full swap, but it definitely seems important to have enough damage when hitting this offense, and going into clara sav theo with half measures seems to often not work
  2. will do - i actually just built this windy to hit this defense haha. this is #3. i'm all out of jack-o-lanterns!
  3. you're right, besides, at :41 even if i proc theomar's passive, camilla will get a turn next.

i'll scout more from now on too, will write that down. thank you for the feedback!!!

thin oxide
#

Other common targeting include tunneling Clara first, especially if she’s on a dmg build (note that most of windy dmg is add dmg so he still does plenty to Clara despite elemental disadvantage)

tacit dome
#

that makes sense, i also think my windy is just very low damage because my right side is so weak

thin oxide
#

Or dismounting sav first (her s3 just way too good)

tacit dome
#

i don't usually go adds left side because i'm afraid of dying

thin oxide
#

I don’t really know if there is a best way to target this def but there does seem to be not a clear winner

tacit dome
#

I'll try to poke around a bit more and see

thin oxide
#

If you’re worried about Theo endure atk buff so much it’s not weird at all just to save him for last

tacit dome
#

that makes sense

#

i'm just scared of giving him attack buff then he procs and kills racuni

inland sedge
#

What’s his name ugh the caster

thin oxide
#

makeitabud

inland sedge
#

@fallow sail help me out

#

There

thin oxide
#

he's nothing special anymore though

#

i'm sure you've hit plenty of swc and other ex-leg mali accounts

inland sedge
#

That account has insane runes

thin oxide
#

and just didn't know

inland sedge
#

I’ve hit that guy in rta

#

And his whole team is 10 speed faster than mine

thin oxide
#

hitting him in rta is not the same as hitting him in siege

fallow sail
#

Fortunately the new owner is incompetent

inland sedge
#

Yeah just saying it’s a stacked account

inland sedge
fallow sail
#

Anyways I will admit I don’t like Racuni as the fire unit

#

Primarily bc base stats

#

Your loss condition is basically Theo running you over

#

So your base stats matter a lot more there than most other spots

#

I think the optimal one is xf?

#

I also think

#

A windy a bit above 286 tick helps a lot

#

Because Clara struggles into multiple buffs

#

So throwing up s2 before she gets to use s3 drastically weakens her s3

thin oxide
#

why does clara struggle into multiple buffs

#

clara isn't moore or robo

fallow sail
#

Same as moore

thin oxide
#

it's not

fallow sail
#

One buff

thin oxide
#

yea but it's not like you ever get immunity again?

fallow sail
#

Idk at least in my experience the main point to lose is the very first turn

thin oxide
#

im confused then

#

what's the point of 286 windy it's not like your windy si outspeeding the clara

fallow sail
#

Most Clara are going to be on tick

#

So if you’re above 286

inland sedge
#

Are you running swift windy

fallow sail
#

And throw up s2

thin oxide
#

ok so you're saying way above 286 tick

fallow sail
#

Yeah I run swift windy for this

inland sedge
#

Or are you putting +180 vio set

thin oxide
#

i hard disagree with this

inland sedge
#

Oh ok

thin oxide
#

1st turn is not the most dangerous here

#

i mean i think if you have cracked runes it's worth running 286 windy just because he's op

#

but not for the reason that 1st turn is most dangerous

fallow sail
#

shrug for me, when I run this a lot of my games start off with the fire unit getting defense broken

#

Lowering the defenses ability to pick off the fire unit on open

#

And then immediately controlling the Theo

#

Has done a good bit of work

thin oxide
#

i've hit this def a lot with cami windy and have lost to it. never had a turn 1 loss. the replay in question wans't a turn 1 loss either

fallow sail
#

About a quarter of the time I’ve done this I’ve lost the fire unit on open

#

Not even kidding it’s a regular occurrence

#

Mitigating that open has done a ton

thin oxide
#

i don't think it's worth losing other sets for a swift windy just for t1 protection

#

plus i dont trust at all most people to build on tick 286 claras

fallow sail
#

shrug weren’t you saying good players don’t build vio/despair units above tick unless like +200

thin oxide
#

how fast is your windy

#

people are dumb over clara

fallow sail
#

Sec to rebuild it

thin oxide
#

randomly clicked through 5 claras on our siege def right now

#

5/5 not on tick

#

it'll be even worse at lower levels, you'll have more swift claras there too

fallow sail
#

I actually did the same and most weren’t even 286 tick lol

thin oxide
#

anyway i do agree with trying to get a super op 286 windy because he's that good and worth it, and the extra turns and speed helps for sure

#

but not a fan of the swift

fallow sail
#

Swift gets more stats is really the reason for this

#

In general yeah I don’t use swift

#

But for this specific usage

#

Where destroy loses its utility

thin oxide
#

rev exists

fallow sail
#

I just run a shield swift windy

thin oxide
#

ok also full disclosure lately i just run helena as my fire unit lol

#

which is a bit different world than otehr squishy fire stuff

fallow sail
#

LOL

thin oxide
#

but i have experimented with all the other stuff in the past like juno, racuni, sin, xf, etc

fallow sail
#

Hmmmm I oscillate between Harmonia and XF as my personal preference

#

Rat is cool except base def is kinda sussy

thin oxide
#

i don't like how xf and harmonia have no defensive passive at all

fallow sail
#

Yeah that’s fair. That being said, most of the mons with defensive passives don’t bring what I want to the table

#

Which is either more pressure or more stabilizing power

thin oxide
#

i just want the fire unit to not die. when i first started using helena i just had a normal cr helena

#

then i realized i never had a good chance ot transform anyway so just made a full tank helena

#

and all she does is not die

#

and that's good enough

fallow sail
#

Ngl this feels like a pointless optimization bc the whole point of this is cami windy can duo

thin oxide
#

but cami windy can't

#

it's op but it does have its limits

#

i've lost multiple times this season overestimating how good cami windy is

fallow sail
#

Sadge mine are mostly galleon

thin oxide
#

lmao this guild sucks

#

i had to scroll through more than a dozen claras before i found one that was on tick

#

gz to xg i guess

#

i shouldn't talk though i can't win anything on def either

I’m on tick postthisdog

that's not on tick?

and there's 10+ spd between your clara and your dds

inland sedge
#

It’s 286

#

You just mean it’s not right at tick?

thin oxide
#

yea

#

i don't really consider 15 spd over tick to be on tick

#

i mean there's nothing wrong with doing so if all your monsters are 15 spd over tick

inland sedge
#

I think specifically Clara over tick can still catch a lot of lazy stuff

thin oxide
#

i agree but you can catch that even better by having your dds at same speed as clara

#

am i crazy in thinking this is really bad?

#

like isn't it super common to have a support/cleanser at 286 tick on offense

#

so if your clara is way above 286

#

and your dds are near it

#

there's a good chance for offense to cleanse between clara and your dds

inland sedge
#

Yeah depends

fallow sail

I think it depends if you’re trying to catch cleaves

only speed tower on as always. do i take the left one? i want to make sure i have enough tankiness here

tacit dome

Also, does Louise need skillups for offense?

tacit dome
#

I'll only talk about ones I think are not standard or atypical today
#3 & 4 - I was honestly surprised to see hurt running this defense. It seems awful. It felt very very simple even with procs.
#9 - Honestly this offense feels super super super hard to make consistent. I'm 2/2 so far but both times it's felt insanely close and difficult. Part of the issue is I can't make 3 286 violent sets with stats I need. I can only make 2.

thin oxide
#

just use this offense next time

#

who do you have the 286 sets on? i think the priority of the sets should be loren > elucia > triana

ahh yea above all else you should have everything on vio

like i'd rather have 239 vio than 286 swift

tacit dome
#

Understood

#

I'll write that down now

tacit dome
#

I don't understand how to formulate some of these counters in my head. I can't figure out how to deal with geldnir liu mei theomars. There's a 33 lead & swift liu mei is a threat, so cleaving is risky. There's two threats, turn 2 is risky since it's liu mei theomars. Tiana is unsafe because speed lead disadvantage and base speed. I tried vigor elucia yeonhwa but then i realized there is nothing that guarantees yeonhwa gets hit, so I lost. it's also hard to keep everything cc'd. I'm stumped. i've been trying to figure out counters instead of asking. what am I missing in the thought process here?

fallow sail
#

Ultimately this is what defenses have come to

#

Where there is no simple angle to hit them

#

You’ve graduated to the point where defenses are very often not cleanly solvable and require either premium units/runes, or clever offenses to hit

cunning narwhal
#

and also some luck to not get proc'd to death even if you have a workable counter

fallow sail
#

^

#

Fwiw Elucia is probably the right choice

tacit dome
#

hmmm okay. I guess this one is just one i can't approach. i know there's like jeanne leo helena but i don't have that option. I don't own dias either.

thin oxide
#

tesa can only hit yeonhwa, vigor elucia should be tanky enough to not instantly die to lm

tacit dome
#

it's not tesa, it's theomars!

thin oxide
#

you only need to control 1 monster, not multiple

#

OH sorry

#

misread

tacit dome
#

that's okay

#

my lack of ability to read is often contagious

thin oxide
#

do you have full shield/will on the team? that helps a bit for first turn, and then aftewards you can control someone (should be elucia controlling theo)

fallow sail
#

You can probably go with Elucia jultan tbh

#

Spam sleep Theo and just let LM kill herself

#

Iirc jultan doesn’t trigger geld

#

So if you just spam hits onto non LM units you should be fine

tacit dome
#

I didn't go shield will.. would I go 2x shield will on all?

fallow sail
#

Don’t have to, just enough to get lms first s3 to not strip the whole team

thin oxide
#

i guess i was wrong i didn't mean the entire team should be shield/will, you need destroy so maybe vigor can be vio/destory since he's tankier

#

but elucia should be vio/will

fallow sail
#

How did it go @tacit dome

tacit dome
#

one of the worst sieges of my life, but i think it's mostly just a mental health thing

tacit dome
#

going to do a bunch of testing today and bounce back from it, see what i can do to learn and improve

tacit dome
#

i will still share because, well, accountability be good to have

#1 - Loss - going to try to test this one, we spoke about it already though
#2 - very bad. not much to say, should not have won
#3 - I think this was good. I was trying to figure out why this defense was on a 10 tower and what the catch was but I guess there isn't really one. I was thinking maybe it was some crazy damage clara or some nonsense so I went -fire but it just ended up being a fairly simple defense to solve.
#4 - Not much to say
#5 - Bad. Don't know how to reliably solve this offense without lushen to be honest.
#6 - Fine I think. I was a little bit worried about cichlid killing carc so I made him extra tanky. But carc just ripped through everything. Kind of lucky. Need to test more.
#7 -__ Loss__ Bad. Feels like the defense is bad but I don't know how to beat it. Will test today.
#8 - Bad. Lucksack win.
#9 - Fine, but probably overkill
#10 - Loss Bad. Was not thinking. Just press battle button.

earnest shore

re: 7, I know people used to malite vigor lulu the praha version of that defense. Might be worth testing out Malite over Kunite and just -water on everyone and let the provoke do it's magic.

8: yeah def scalers into ignore def is sussy at best

7/8 have no immunity and 3 units who are passive reliant so maybe test some tesa stuff into it. Something like tesa lulu triana seems like it would work if you just spam oblivion carc.

old marsh
#

Tesa also has damage reduction and res lead fwiw
I've struggling against Carc Miles x myself. Harmonia has been hit or miss, mainly due to being stripped/stunned, def break and shot down because 100 res means nothing sometimes lol
So intrested in hearing the discussions around Carc MIles

thin oxide
#

yea wind tank + 2 water is the best way to handle carc miles wind

#

other common wind include louise or triana but its basically the same thing

#

your premium version is bolv amelia/aaliyah windy but malite vigor lulu as nup suggested is good f2p option

cunning narwhal
#

Pulling out Jultan for a rework for the LM towers. Im guessing he needs to be much tankier (more defense?) and try and add a shield set? Haven't touched him since triple wolf was a thing, lol

thin oxide
#

note that jultan is a bruiser not a tank. he has no defensive skills that make him tanky. as a bruiser he's still perfectly fine into LM as long as LM is the only/main damage threat. but if it's LM + some other DD like a Theo, Tesa, Perna, etc. then you cannot use jultan

#

that being said i have no idea what that build is lol

#

most common jultan build is simply triple hp triple rev

cunning narwhal
# thin oxide that being said i have no idea what that build is lol

rofl. It was from a very mean C3 siege defense with him and eshir/vigor like forever ago 😉 Had the best winrate of most of my defenses heh.
But yea my plan to use him would be vs the LM/vigor/khmun type comps and not the theo ones. Just need another component for LM nat4 tower counter

jolly swift
#

Even into khmun I dont really like using Jultan

#

S2 into s1 can hurt a lot

#

Also vigor and khmun provide sustain so id use jubelle into khmun vigor lui mei

cunning narwhal
#

hmmm

tacit dome
tacit dome
#

Ty for all the suggestions everyone

thin oxide
#

not that you can use louise on offense here

#

it's still just malite or windy on offense

tacit dome
#

oh

#

i'm a blind dickhead?

#

also when you use windy do you not use his s2?

thin oxide
#

yea normally windy is used with bolv

#

probably would stick to malite if you're doing vigor lulu

tacit dome
#

I'm assuming malite isn't terribly functional without skill ups?

#

I have a second one that isn't really skilled much

#

I do use him

#

But it always feels much worse

thin oxide
#

yea malite kinda sucks when he can't continously stay in stone form

#

and s2 skillups help a ton with that, both with the provoke chance and the cd reduction

tacit dome
#

I guess I will start saving engraved summon for gargoyles haha :D

tacit dome
#

I'm assuming TWL is ill advised against the Carcano taranys miles defense?

thin oxide
#

i guess it can work but its just a weaker form of what was suggested

tacit dome
#

I understand. I'm just trying to make sure I have options since I'm gonna be scraping the barrel with only one malite skilled

gleaming vapor
#

Carc miles Louise you can just play sniper comp with fire tank

#

Khmun kona cov

tacit dome
#

carcano taranys miles

gleaming vapor
#

Can you just woosa meph shren that

#

snipes miles auto win

tacit dome
#

I am pretty sure carcano can see shren and kill her instantly

gleaming vapor
#

why would carcano target shren if you'l have immu to prevent def break

#

he'll target meph

earnest shore
#

no the real fear is that miles just procs and fucking murders shren

#

since u dont have a booster

#

and also no atk buff means miles may just walk it off then you're even more likely to see a miles proc fiesta

gleaming vapor
earnest shore
#

woosa meph shren

gleaming vapor
#

You know mephisto is a booster right

earnest shore
#

ok let me rephrase it

#

you dont have an attack buff booster

#

and also if your meph is built swift to try and race the defense what is your plan to survive a carc with any damage

#

i guess if you have sick spd hp hp swift sets it might work but at the same time see the other thing i also wrote

#

and also no atk buff means miles may just walk it off then you're even more likely to see a miles proc fiesta

#

miles is pretty consistently built like +25-30k in siege

#

so a no atk buff snipe might just fail

#

i just don't see this being consistent whatsoever

#

esp since when i saw the praha variant before or the carc miles louise teams the carc being on cd violent +wind was not uncommon to try and kill a malite, so a mephi whos not nearly as tanky is going to get his ass beaten by that

fallow sail
#

Idk if you know this

#

But mephisto isn’t boosting a unit high enough to actually kill there

#

Consistently

#

Miles is usually pretty bulky, and you’re tuning to a pretty low boost

#

With no att buff

quartz crescent
#

I think you can replace the Woosa with a Vela there and that already takes some fears away
Vela taking Miles Aggro while also pushing more and also having some immunity as protection
but ofc Tara can kill your Shren so I am in general also not too fond of that

fallow sail
#

Regardless it’s not good lol

thin oxide
#

you guys are missing the obvious

#

if you want to go the meph route you do khmun meph shren (bruiser shren)

#

snipe carc

tacit dome
tacit dome
#

It makes sense if it is tuned this way to me

#

I feel like I'd still be scared of miles ripping off khmun's face. But I guess that would take several procs & you have shren for a lot of safety

quartz crescent
#

Miles doesnt shred Khmun but you regardless have to be able to kill Carc with Shren because you have to calculate Miles stunning Khmun in I think

tacit dome
#

I would speed tune it so that it is uncuttable

#

Unless I'm missing something??

thin oxide
#

Miles easily out speeds meph

#

You should be able to one shot carc with just shren alone

#

Unless it’s some super tanky carc but that’s just not going to be common at all

tacit dome
#

is it socially acceptable for me to devilmon my malite dupe(s)

#

i feel like I need malite really badly but it feels weird to devilmon him

#

especially since he takes so many if unlucky

jolly swift
#

considering you dont cleave, id see it as subbing out galleon devils for malite devils xD

tacit dome
#

👀

#

true

#

i actually have been cleaving quite a bit recently to be honest

#

a lot of the 4* defenses especially are just too hard to solve without cleaving i've felt

#

i want like 3 more malites i feel

inland sedge
#

I would personally wait

gleaming vapor
#

same

thin oxide
#

no its not socially acceptable to devil malites

#

there are just too many alternate options you have when it comes to wind tanks

#

even if malite may be strictly better in some situations

#

overall it just doesn't become worth it

#

i.e. windy, yeonhwa, even roid in some situations

gleaming vapor
#

Malite lost quite some value to me after I started using YH

tacit dome
#

that makes sense

thin oxide
#

carc miles wind isn't really a meta siege def either anyway

tacit dome
#

it's felt like a lot of the time there have been situations calling specifically for malite where i haven't had one

#

but i also can't pinpoint those off the top of my head so i can't really back that up with anything

gleaming vapor
#

You might be tunneling a bit cause you're used to use malite?

tacit dome
#

oh yeah, i don't mean specifically just for this defense, i've just felt like a lot of the time i've been unable to have enough malite, but perhaps i just need to explore my alternative options more. my yeonhwa is still missing one in S2 though which is super annoying.

fallow sail
#

Is carc just staying in stance once or twice

#

It going miles s1 open -> carc stance -> miles s2 khmun -> carc s1 khmun is really sus

that was my fear

tacit dome

Extremely low skill siege today.

  1. Standard
  2. I think this was good.
  3. Standard. This one I know is good because this is a throwback to my first G3 siege - spent lots of time testing this offense.
  4. Standard.
  5. I was really happy about this offense. I felt like it was very smart. I came up with it on my own and it felt very strong. I piloted wrong though - I should definitely kill Seara instantly here. I got a lot of extra stats by using the Carcano lead. The defense is probably horrible but I was happy about it.
  6. I think this was good. I got the piloting wrong because I didn't realize Julianne got dispelled whenever his passive procs. After that I just slept Julliane, CC'd Aaliyah. Kill order was Aaliyah -> Geldnir -> Julianne. Also probably a garbage defense but I thought I did okay.
  7. Standard I believe.
  8. Fine, think the defense was garbage.
  9. I think this offense was good, but I also feel like the defense was absolute garbage. Chacha skogul probably 2v3s this.
  10. Bad. I still hate this offense and I'm still using it.

and still 31k hp with res slot 6...

primal abyss
#

#5 is completely op wtf

cunning narwhal
#

But if there is only one elucia with real acc I still have questions. I would have assumed rune swap for some but they are all runed so Im confused lol

#

And oof I need to make more 2a dupes of some stuff for sure. not nearly enough counters heh

tacit dome
#

different use cases I guess

cunning narwhal
tacit dome
#

the thing is that i kind of doubt he needs the max accuracy elucia for solutions to a lot of the defenses we may

cunning narwhal
#

/shrug wasnt expecting max acc but was expecting more than like <30%

#

But I mean tuning your team to your situation is a thing but mostly want to hear the explanations

thin oxide
#

you only should have max acc against stuff you expect max res on

#

the most common one being kinki

#

otherwise it's a waste of stats

#

like what are you bringing these things into? eshir, khmun, vigor, clara, monte?

#

none of those are going to be built with res

#

also i dont know if you're counting acc arti, i usually have 20 ish acc there too for 50 total on top of the 30 base acc you see

tacit dome
#

monte?

#

many montes I face are max res

#

let me check my logs

thin oxide
#

i dunno i scrolled through our guild's montes and found only 1 out of 20ish that was max res

#

sure you'll see it from time to time but it doesn't feel common enough to waste so many stats to deal with that rarity

tacit dome
#

the only problem is its devastating when they do have max res and i don't have accuracy

thin oxide
#

but i'm not at 0 accuracy

#

im at like 50+

tacit dome
#

of course

thin oxide
#

that's not devastating at all if i do run into it

#

especially with carc like

#

i don't expect my carc to 1 shot a monte even if i land def break

tacit dome
#

that makes sense

thin oxide
#

if i mis def break i'll do some dmg and have another round to try to land the kill

#

for elucia, there's s3 which doesn't even need acc

tacit dome
#

of course, i know that part haha

thin oxide
#

the acc is only super critical against kinki, as the point of elucia against kinki is to stun/freeze so you can hit without getting rev

#

you have to play the meta

#

the goal in siege isn't really to get 100% win rate

#

that is impossible these days and has been for years

#

it's to get 98%

#

with 95% being good

#

to get that, you have to make some judgment calls to rune your monsters effectively to do well against the most common ways monsters are built on defs

#

allocating too may stats in 1 direction is going to make you weak to others

tacit dome
#

out of these: vs geld ophilia theomars, first one (although this is a horrible counter), clara monte kinki, geldnir aaliyah julliane, khmun monte eshir (although this is also bad)

thin oxide
#

elucia is already a really squishy monster, most losses with her is going to involve her just dying

#

same with carc

tacit dome
#

maybe i should bump him up a tick instead of worrying about accuracy

thin oxide
#

ok so stuff like vs kinki or vs ophilia - definitely want max acc carc/elucia there

#

but other stuff especially LM or theo things, don't need max acc

#

so much more important to have more tankiness there rather than max acc

tacit dome
#

yeah those I don't do accuracy of course

tacit dome
#

@thin oxide How would you decide between 286 and 239 carc?

#

I feel like I can build a fairly solid 286 carc right now, but I'm not sure if the extra stats are better

#

It allows me to use two pretty great runes I have laying around

thin oxide
#

what is it for

tacit dome
#

For concrete examples

#

Khmun monte eshir, khmun monte cichlid sort of stuff

#

Here are my attacks with carcano this season

thin oxide
#

i think i actually want more dmg not tankiness for carc in that situation

#

and drop to 239 so you can do a CD build

tacit dome
#

I have a pretty high dmg crate build on 239

#

What sort of ehp ballpark am I looking for?

thin oxide
#

what you have is fine

#

but also i don't run the true double reviver comp

#

only stuff with hwadam or chacha triana

#

mine is even squishier

tacit dome
#

I think I'm probably only going to do chacha triana stuff from now on

#

I've not been impresssed by double revive recently, probably because lack of skillups on platy a bit

So I was looking through my losses today and thinking more about clara theomars savannah, and I was thinking about one comp I used before and lost with. It was racuni windy camilla. I think windy + camilla is very strong in general against this defense, since a lot of the time savannah will just cleanse the stun clara does off camilla, and you can go straight for clara. I wanted another support, one with a lead skill + adding safety, so I gave triana a shot. It seemed pretty consistent and it helps, but there was one other I tried. I think both are good, but I've tested this quite a few times and it seems very good, it's with harmonia instead of triana. With both builds I do no res, just full tank 239 and -water (i'm sure 286 is better if possible, I can't with my runes without swapping, and I was just doing a test for this). And after testing like 30 times I've found with harmonia especially if you get unlucky and theo goes crazy, it can actually be good for you because you just swap the hp. I tried testing against the high damage theomars variants in my guild and it still felt very safe. I am still trying to figure out the +1 to this comp but they both seemed decent. Does anyone else have any other ideas on what might be a good +1 here? I really like harmonia s3 here and her element advantage for the glancing chance with sav. The other thing I did was put a shield set on camilla just for the small extra chance to keep the harp safe. Sorry for long post. Just wanted to share some testing because this defense is still a pain in the ass for me and I'm trying to figure out solutions I can use, since I have 2 camillas and I really did think when I was hitting it before that camilla windy is a solid answer to the defense.

#

I initially thought racuni would be good because they can cleanse off the stun from clara, but it's definitely bad, you just get bonked by theo way too easily I feel, and the immunity after turn 1 is really nice from triana/harmonia

thin oxide
#

you're right harm is good and probably one of the best f2p options

#

i dont like racuni that much either

#

i have dupe helenas so that's just my preference now

#

the biggest problem with harm is that without any passives she can just get locked down and you can't shake off def breaks that easily especially if stunned

#

like you don't have to get 100-0'ed, you can get stunned, def broken, and then killed over 2 turns (or even more than 2 turns if its despair clara)

tacit dome
#

hmmm okay. when I was testing I would try to freeze the theomars on turn 1 instead of focusing clara if I was concerned about harm (when theo takes 3 turns on turn 1, for instance)

#

I know with siege a lot of the times you can test things 30 times and that doesn't mean its consistent

thin oxide
#

most of that is just because it's hard to test against different builds

tacit dome
#

But when I was testing it really did feel like it was quite safe, although I need to test more against despair clara

thin oxide
#

you never know what builds your opponents are running

tacit dome
#

I try to assume the worst always

thin oxide
#

i'm not trying to say its bad just pointing out the weakness of it

#

i don't have a better answer for you anyway

tacit dome
#

oh no I didn't think so, I just want to keep trying to work towards finding answers because the hardest sieges for me are when it's geldnir ophilia theomars spam or clara sav theo, everything else I feel like I can mostly handle

#

geldnir liu mei tesa also feels very difficult still for similar reasons, but i haven't seen that spammed yet, i've had a couple sieges where both sides are almost fully geld ophilia theomars and it blows my mind

#

but obviously clara theo sav is much more spammable and when i have to hit the defense like 5 times i start not having answers anymore

#

its funny because this was one of the first defenses i think we spoke about when i was starting in g3 siege a few months ago and i still to this day am trying to figure out the answers haha

#

it really does feel like there is no f2p friendly options

#

hello friends, may I have some suggestions vs harmonia vigor skogul? this is what i've used so far. today I lost vs swift vigor with copper rina

#

i'm not sure if i should just stick to hraes/logan rina triana for this one. i don't like khmun elucia loren very much.

earnest shore
#

ppl used to run Khmun vigor lulu into KVS and this seems like a shittier version of that

#

Since Harmonia does like nothing most of the fight and just destroying Skogul when his stone isn't in the air cripples this team

#

Should be safe to just run this multiple times. Just feel the team out, run -wind on lulu vigor and -water on Khmun. If it's cd harm then try and send her sky but otherwise just play the destroy game until you cripple Skogul and vigor enough to just win

jolly swift
#

Is it unsafe to water twins this?

tacit dome
#

skogul drop rock on your head

#

alternatively, swift vigor

jolly swift
#

they are designed to live skogul rock + vigor s3

#

because the defense is old and I remember being recommended the team

thin oxide
#

i think i'd use it if i had nothing left but it's really not safe

#

you can't easily kill anything fast between harmonia and vigor support

You're right jubelle is probably just better

you definitely can't use jultan here, he isn't a tank

No not really

If you're new 179 chacha is fine

If your build is somehow best on spd/hp/hp you can but it is unlikely useless you literally do not have hp runes

Well we end season with 85.1% winrate. Only up from here right? :')

#

Not my best work but we'll get there

civic steeple
#

Gz on 85 wr, that's pretty good

#

Especially considering it's your first real g3 season

tacit dome
#

#1, #9 - I still hate this. But it works.

#3 - Bad I think but I'm still not entirely sure how to solve it. I think it is workable but definitely loseable.
#6 - I actually thought this offense was pretty smart. It's weird though and there must be much simpler solutions. I basically always ended up focusing Rakan so it's a little weird there but it felt fine.
#7 - Bad but scraping barrel.
#8 - Very cool offense.

#10 -** Loss** - This was a very high damage vigor. I died instantly on vigor. I actually quit out immediately after when maybe (probably not, but maybe) I could have won because I wanted to signal to team that someone else needed to hit it, because we had to take to prevent tag from happening. Still not sure how to beat this one consistently to be honest.

#2, #4, #5 - All fine.

tacit dome
civic steeple
#

I got 89.5 this season KEKW

#

Well that was a fun typoOMEGALUL

Maybe khmun racuni malite works vs that defense. But it seems so scary regardless to be honest

I feel like its the same loss condition, vigor goes ham

Yeah that could be an option

Feels like an outrune imo

Right here I think I did get outruned

The vigor was insane

Yeah exactly

tacit dome
#

Never been hit so hard by a vigor in my life

#

I think it was one of those 286 tick vigors with high CR on cdmg build and +30k hp

civic steeple
#

On equal runes a vigor shouldnt rip through your racuni or khmun even if he has +fire, as -water can habe higher rolls

#

KEKW yeah it's lovely if a vigor does ~24kdmg on s3

it was more
