bronze falcon
#

Because I don’t own moore so I only really know my own responses

lunar fiber
bronze falcon
#

Zoomer stuff, sekh Jamire and then whatever the second guy is doing

#

Btw context

#

Is that a rev verde

#

Or vio

lunar fiber
#

this is a swift verde

bronze falcon
#

Hmmmm I see

lunar fiber
#

i have a rev verde and vio verde as well

bronze falcon
#

Yeah hence why I ask

lunar fiber
#

but if i draft verde early its my swift verde

#

i just dont know who to put my swift sets on

bronze falcon
#

Uh I forget

#

No Zibala

#

Yes ethna

#

Yes sekhmet

#

No oli?

lunar fiber
#

my best dmg one is on sonia but man.. really feels like random people are building high def stuff and im getting trapped

#

no olie no zibala

#

those are the only 2 meta ones im missing

bronze falcon
#

About half my draft incidentals traps her

lunar fiber
#

i ran swift ethna earlier this season, switched to vio like the vio much better

bronze falcon
#

Just bc def main artis

lunar fiber
#

i currently have one of my better swift sets on sekh but like we discussed

#

i hate her and she's not good for my draft anyway

#

i have another decent set on chiwu

#

chiwu is ok but when im alreayd drafting moore + dark kass i dont need chiwu as a spd lead that often

bronze falcon
#

Yeah just on the surface, you’re not playing the units sekh wants to have with her

#

@molten root you’re a moore owner, what’s the speed threat breakdown

lunar fiber
#

so... who should i put swifts on

#

any other spd leads i should consider drafting more?

bronze falcon
#

I see eshir is commonly used

lunar fiber
#

maybe eshir?

#

yea was going to say

#

eshir would work well with my dark kass

#

he also has dmg

bronze falcon
#

Yeah just thinking bc I’m not a moore player so I’m not super familiar but

#

Moore should smooth a lot of issues

#

Yeah the kass

#

But also amps your damage a good bit

#

Hmm. You’re in vio ethna so your speed threat options are kinda strange but

lunar fiber
#

i really liked the draft the 3rd guy did against me with taor tesa lol but i think i dont have the rune quality and random high base spd LDs to pull it off

#

i want to use monsters like taor

bronze falcon
#

Yeah Jamire sekh is really cool if you have the same right lds

#

Bc aside from incidentally hosing Veronica and co

#

You’re also just having two really good setup units

#

But, kass Jamire is kinda awkward

#

You typically want less explosive nuke in favor of more consistent damage that can’t be reset/can cycle back to it fast

#

Yeah you’re gonna need Vince for this one, moore is just too foreign to me

#

I feel like valantis means the

#

Jamire Shizuka lines are interesting

#

Because valantis + sekhmet can absolutely ruin teams

#

While also making it really hard to take first turn due to the sekh/valantis pairing

ruby geode
#

in the first match, robo and kass look really exposed against the high base units if haegang is banned

#

I'd have liked some fire unit like masha or karnal there as a middle pick

#

second match, I'd say you can justify a middle pick leo vs tablo masha, but if not then definitely as a last pick because there's even a miles at that point (you even gain the leo verde synergy, besides hard countering the opponent's spd scaling units)

#

third match I'd plan to ban last pick and consider which two units can beat the first 4, and honestly I think slamming down veromos josephine or maybe racuni and focusing tesa wins that (he can't oblivion 4 units especially when getting stunned and he needs to oblivion vero/racuni first)

lunar fiber
#

how do you beat this neph tiana riley kinki thing

ruby geode
#

not sure where these pop up from but I usually sekhmet vero them, haven't lost to those in a while now with that

#

it suddenly gained popularity to play neph riley

lunar fiber
#

ok sample draft, they fp neph. then what do you do

bronze falcon
#

i snap respond oli sekh

#

these guys typically dont bring a lot of strip

#

as a lot of them are angling to try and take something to the effect of

#

nepth tiana riley verde +1

#

so stuff like woosa can be good

#

additionally, if youre on first pick

#

and they take nepth tiana

#

verde is really good into them

#

as i see it

#

fp nepth means one of two things;

#

tiana riley, which you can just use speed lead sekh to forcefully break up their open

#

or theyre playing some full ld comp, where you cannot let them get going

lunar fiber
#

just an example as reference

#

i mean

ruby geode
#

for me it's moore sekh into fp neph

lunar fiber
#

we already decided sekh is not for me

#

we already know i dont have oli

#

we already know i pick verde early all the time

bronze falcon
#

yeah just explaining my overall thought process

#

the thing is

#

sekh is unique into these guys

#

because aside from s3

#

s2's debuff suite is really good into these guys

#

but ifyoure going like that instead

#

moore verde -> tiana riley

#

youre 1:1 racing verde to their tiana as shown

lunar fiber
#

i will lose that race so i have to ban neph or tiana

bronze falcon
#

yeah

#

youre not very fast

#

although

#

afaik all of these guys are using a damage tiana

#

so theyre not super fast either

#

Hmmmm im not totally sure on the valantis pick there

#

kass is fine, but valantis into one of the few strippers who doesnt care about his existence basically locks you into banning out nepth tiana

#

which means they can just bully you like they did with the juno

ruby geode
#

it might be weird sounding but I don't think I ever lost to them when I used vero, you have him as a safety net vs neph if sekh is banned and mine is 82% acc after s2 artis so can stun kinki or pushback mhw (and he keeps cleansing kinki/mhw def break)

lunar fiber
#

what's your vero build

bronze falcon
#

yeah this is a good point on vero

#

i run like 60 acc using arti

ruby geode
#

same, can post it one sec

#

it's +22 s2 acc so 83%

lunar fiber
#

oh sort of similar to mine except i dont get any atk just more tankiness

ruby geode
#

you can argue against the max res, so far I like it but some people want more hp

bronze falcon
#

thats basically mine but i drop res for like 6k more hp

lunar fiber
ruby geode
#

I considered gemming out the atk for like flat hp but realized his damage is pretty good on defbreaks with s1 too

bronze falcon
#

yeah

#

vero can run away with matches vs these guys

#

ive had games where it goes smth like

#

vero self cleanses silence

#

s2

#

passive gives him full atb

#

s1

#

passive gives full atb a second time

#

and theyre just kinda screwed

#

because all the debuffs are gone, their stuff is stunned and your stuff is mostly healed

ruby geode
#

I realized that, with this many units on max res in the meta (oli racuni shizuka and sometimes miles) having high acc on vero and karnal is actually kinda nice

lilac thorn
#

I like res Vero with +900 atk don’t remember if I brought it into you though. Currently 40% pr and 62% wr with it

#

But it prevents Camilla and fire monkey and bad tesas from being troubling

molten root
#

I like max res vero

onyx swift
#

i saw some people running triple nem, is vio better? pepestudy

molten root
#

Chance to proc out of stuns is important, also vio imo is just way more useful with procs to cycle s2s

#

Also I dont play water ryu anymore

molten root
#

Res is important this meta bc theres so much impact units going arnd with low acc like masha fire monke camilla etc

lunar fiber
#

i'm having a bit of trouble against fire kass

#

usually its with the old shizuka leo rag etc kind of team

ruby geode
#

hmm do you own her yourself? I forgot

#

that last game I'd middle pick fire kass vs that leo

lilac thorn
#

I wouldn't

#

worry both of those units could swallow that shit up

lunar fiber
#

i do own her myself and she's pretty high on my devil priority list

#

but don't have her available just yet

#

oh i guess to give you outcome of the jose cami raki devil question from a few weeks ago

#

i deviled cami. she's pretty cool im happy with her

#

and 2nd place is raki actually. currently working on her (siege has a factor in this, this isn't purely rta. but i realized benedict sucks ass and i want another real option to use vs julianne and possibly this fire kass too)

#

next will be jose or fire kass

bronze falcon
#

/people who play like the first guy

#

Is to have dedicated tech for it

#

Sagar, taranys, whatever

lunar fiber
#

i've built or considered anything suggested already. mostly laika and other fire dds

#

you'll have to convince me how sagar or taranys would work though

#

i will never hesitate to build 10 random monsters that only counter 1 thing in 1 specific situation

#

that is really my only advantage that i have and i am more than happy to use it

#

i just dont know what to build. not sure how to use sagar or taranys into these fire heavy drafts

bronze falcon
#

In a similar vein to sekh

#

Taranys is more so for the Leo Viva Shizuka players

lunar fiber
#

do you have an example draft or replay or video

#

i'm interested for sure

bronze falcon
#

I haven’t seen either of those cores in quite some time tbh

#

I’m farming conq rn so

#

I’d have to check my message history

#

But it’s pretty effective

lunar fiber
#

also while this is helpful convo it is kinda sidetracked

#

i'm more interested in dealing with fire kass and while she's drafted with leo a lot, she's not always with leo

bronze falcon
#

Yeah that’s where sagar comes in for me

#

Idk how people build her speed wise

lunar fiber
#

so is this a normal sagar or is this a no spd sagar

bronze falcon
#

Normal

lunar fiber
#

vio/will?

bronze falcon
#

Yea

#

Rev/nem are cool but will is my preference

#

Something to consider with fire kass is cp isn’t really that good into her afaik because he can’t reliably reset the fire unit

lunar fiber
#

well yes that's the whole point of this question, what to draft instead of the 3/4 i did

#

obviously it wasn't good

#

i already thought resetting the fire kass would be one of the better ways to deal with it

#

hence the sekh picks

#

but it's not working

#

your advice is to use sagar, like instead of sekh? or draft both sekh and sagar for stacking multiple resets?

bronze falcon
#

I’m not totally sure if the line, but sagar over cp is generally good

#

Gany is also cool into Federica type units in general but idk if you have the setup I’d use

lunar fiber
#

Sure just give me that dark pudding and I’ll use gany too

bronze falcon
#

But yeah that too

quasi nymph
# lunar fiber

i always draft oli sekhmet against shizuka first picker

#

double reset, spd lead, and high spd unit to contest turn 1 incase they pick visachel

lunar fiber
#

check pin/read history a bit please or at least the topic at hand

#

i don't have oli and the question isn't what to draft into shizuka fp. that's already been discussed a ton

quasi nymph
#

ok sorry jx

#

imo in first match nana is pretty good as 4th pick instead of cheongpung

#

chow probably also good as justice goes through invincibility

lunar fiber
bronze falcon
#

@lunar fiber got a taranys game for ya

compact eagle
#

In that same slot would a Vanessa nana or traina do the job?

onyx swift
bronze falcon
#

One, as yakuza said, taranys can’t really be killed

#

Two, taranys hits like a truck

#

An unchecked taranys can legit 1v2 stuff like ragleo

uneven helm
#

Gany

#

Oh wait this is a super old thread

#

Maybe i should read dates

bronze falcon
#

Lmao

bronze falcon

#

The first message

#

The ragdoll shizu people

lunar fiber
#

today's question... slot 4 cr vs cd for bruisers? the main ones i'm working with/questioning are camilla vanessa and tesa. i guess there's masha and mhw too but i'm pretty sure i want them on cd

ruby geode
#

usually camilla is cd, vanessa tesa cr

lunar fiber
#

i currently have vanessa on cr and tuned to go before most my team, but camilla and tesa on slower cd builds

ruby geode
#

I've seen a few cd tesas

#

but mostly cr

lunar fiber
#

yea i'm wondering if i should try to get tesa and camilla on faster cr builds

#

there's also the rune economy thing where the more monsters i rune on that ideal faster cr build the worse they will be

#

tesa probably makes the most sense since he scales with spd anyway

#

although im really liking the camilla pick a lot recently

#

and wondering how i can make her better

#

i honestly haven't even looked much at other people's camillas, are they similar to mine?

ruby geode
#

yeah camilla looks pretty standard

#

maybe you can get away with cd tesa if you just use him to outbruiser passives

lunar fiber
#

generally when i pick these kinds of drafts speed tuning/turn order isn't much of an issue, with the exception of it would be nice to have tesa go in front of shizuka

ruby geode
#

I have him faster on cr but I need him tuned to tomoe

lunar fiber
#

hmm i may try faster tesa, maybe even steal some of vanessa's runes. i don't really pick her as much as i used to

bronze falcon
#

yeah i really

#

really

#

like cr tesa

#

bc you can tune shit properly without breaking your account

lunar fiber
#

yea the more i think about this the more i dont know why i haven't done cr tesa

bronze falcon
#

and having high acc

lunar fiber
#

like even outside of rta i'm trying to convince more people to use cr instead of cd

bronze falcon
#

if you want you can have two

lunar fiber
#

this may be a case of i'm just lazy of changing old builds

bronze falcon
#

but imo the cr build is just better

lunar fiber
#

plus tesa is op and any half decent build will appear to "work" already

bronze falcon
#

ye

#

the difference between cd and cr

#

is cd sometimes just oneshots things

#

cami looks good, are you on s3 recovery or s2 acc

lunar fiber
#

recov

bronze falcon
#

how are you picking her usually

lunar fiber
#

hmm that made me look i may try to at least get acc gemmed in

bronze falcon
#

i like acc personally

#

bc miles is on res a lot these days

lunar fiber
#

yes that is true

bronze falcon
#

but

#

what are you picking her into

lunar fiber
#

but yea i do end up with her into miles a lot

#

i'm always looking for damage against juno/racuni/miles/suiki/mhw kind of things

#

speaking of which i wanted to try suiki myself too, is he normally spd/atk/hp vio/rev 100 res?

bronze falcon
#

i have him on basically a kinki set

#

so like +125

lunar fiber
#

ic

bronze falcon
#

i personally run -water/s1 acc

#

but i think most ppl prefer additionals

#

*-water for miles, s1 acc bc res on those comps is fairly common

uneven helm
#

i may be late, but i dislike low acc vanessa

#

esp if u wanna use her as dbreak setup

lunar fiber
#

i mostly use her for spd lead and to protect stuff like ethna dark kass

uneven helm
#

hmm isee

lunar fiber
#

i do agree though in general i think more acc on anything that has a debuff is pretty important

#

people are building res on more and more stuff now

#

how much acc do you think masha should have

uneven helm
#

i personally run a ~50 acc masha

lunar fiber
#

is that like 30 from runes + 20 acc arti

#

ish

uneven helm
#

26 runes 21 arti

lunar fiber
#

yea something like that

#

i'm wondering if its worth going for even more

uneven helm
#

coz i mostly use it to kill rat or oliver and those are always always 100res

lunar fiber
#

lol i was just about to say

#

those 2 exact units

uneven helm
#

but 85 acc eats too much away at the other stats

#

and i usually still have a giou to atleast dbreak the oliver

#

its my gotoanswer vs oliver first picks, just masha giou

#

and they get confused

bronze falcon
#

FatCatIDK any updates

lunar fiber
#

rta is too hard

bronze falcon
#

G2?

lunar fiber
#

i think i can get g2 but that's nothing new, and g3 is pretty far away

bronze falcon
#

Ok hear me out Vanessa fp

willow sail
#

We are rooting for you, to participate in the next SWC.

lunar fiber
bronze falcon
# lunar fiber And then?

There’s a couple basic lines I’ve explored with this
Vanessa -> Praha/Sagar
Vanessa-> Praha/Gany
Vanessa-> Gany/Abellio
Vanessa-> Gany/Hathor

#

Leveraging units like ethna, and uh

#

You don’t have any lds like Bella/narsha/Han/Julianne right

#

To fill the weird opens

lunar fiber
#

Nope

bronze falcon
#

Hmm

lunar fiber
#

I did a lot of Vanessa ethna early season

bronze falcon
#

Main thing is

#

Praha + sagar

#

/ Gany

#

Is control hell

lunar fiber
#

Yea I see that played against me quite often

bronze falcon
#

Obviously you can use nessa ethna to force contest stuff, but the addition of sagar and Gany allows you to mop up a lot of turn 2 stuff

#

There’s also the boring

#

Nessa cami lines

#

But we don’t talk about those

lilac thorn
lunar fiber
#

I don’t have the runes or the units

#

And my brain is too slow

lilac thorn
#

gotta wait for oliver in ss Sadge

lunar fiber
#

I literally spent 50k+ ss on Oliver already

lilac thorn
#

I definitely think you have the runes though

lunar fiber
#

I don’t have good top end sets

#

I just have depth

lilac thorn
#

you just need to fix the other two issues

lunar fiber
#

I can rune a lot of different things decently well

#

I’m not

#

It would be below avg rune quality

bronze falcon
#

Hmmmm jx arent your runes actually respectable

lilac thorn
#

if you're above +180 for cores that essentially allows you access to g3

lunar fiber
#

My core is around +170

#

I can rune like 2 monsters on +180 if i broke everything

lilac thorn
#

Hmmmm are they high eff though

upbeat moatBOT
#

After filtering out fodder and incomplete runed monsters, I have nothing to show. Awkward.

bronze falcon
lunar fiber
bronze falcon
#

FatCatIDK nobody let jx see my account then

lunar fiber
#

Not saying my runes are awful but it’s just not an advantage I have

bronze falcon
#

but anyways

#

one of the things i think you have an edge on is you in theory should be able to do my strat

#

and just have an entire box of pivots runed

lunar fiber
#

Yes that’s what I’m trying to do

bronze falcon
#

what are you losing to?

lunar fiber
#

The 40 monsters they give you for rta favorites is not even close to enough for me

#

There’s nothing in particular I’m losing to a lot anymore which is good I guess

#

I dunno here are my last few losses

bronze falcon
#

hmmm

lilac thorn
#

That’s a comp I would bring Vero into

lunar fiber
#

I banned Vanessa

bronze falcon
#

maybe im a hater but

#

i feel like some of these are just them punishing you for playing moore

#

but i digress

#

anyways

#

bottom right, im not sure about your 3/4

#

bc as is youre basically allowing a whole lot of annoying lds to exist

lunar fiber
#

I know Moore is a weak point here but without him I struggle into t1 stuff

#

I’d rather deal with the Moore counters than fight t1 with no Moore

bronze falcon
#

hmm fair

#

for me, moore seems like the unit id want in the 3/4 slot

#

but i also have arta who smoothes edges vs moore

#

like looking at top right

lunar fiber
#

I think all of these were pretty close anyway and could have gone either way with a proc

bronze falcon
#

ye

lunar fiber
#

Except too right

bronze falcon
#

woosa fp is usually either

#

ganyhathor

#

or hard t2

lunar fiber
#

Top right I got hard fucked, double robo is not the play

bronze falcon
#

yeah i feel like

#

a value stripper

#

like praha is pretty good

#

into those lines

lilac thorn
#

You should’ve gone dark robo first

bronze falcon
#

^

lilac thorn
#

Instead of wind

bronze falcon
#

imo

lunar fiber
#

my dark robo is despair and wind is swift

bronze falcon
#

unless wind robo is a force ban

lunar fiber
#

is that still ok?

bronze falcon
#

you go dark first

lilac thorn
#

Ye

bronze falcon
#

bc wind is much easier to punish

lunar fiber
#

hmm interesting

lilac thorn
#

Dark robo you can escape easily from a punish

lunar fiber
#

most dark robos i see i think are swift too

bronze falcon
#

i run despair personally

#

but

#

the main thing is

#

wind robo is pretty easy to punish

lilac thorn
#

Wind robo is all or nothing essentially

bronze falcon
#

especially in the spot theyre in

#

^^^

lunar fiber
#

i see

bronze falcon
#

if they respond by

lunar fiber
#

i'll try drafting dark robo more instead of wind

bronze falcon
#

fucking with robos ability to perform

#

hes absolutely useless

#

dark robo has it rough as well

#

but he can recover

#

way easier than wind

#

who gets walled by just fire units

#

bc at least dark can fully cycle

#

but if theres a single fire unit

#

wind robos ability to s2-3

#

is drastically lowered

lilac thorn
#

I think I have a few replays up where I just dip from my dark robo play immediately

#

Into a turn 2

bronze falcon
#

ye. i think my lines are weird bc im playing closer to midrange

#

but dark robo is really flexible
