R1 is also 100% Phoebe

keen jasper

Neither of them benefit from R3

verbal karma

damn

undone ether
#

R2 is... what exactly?

verbal karma
#

stat lowering is buffed

undone ether
#

oh stat lowering effects

HUM

keen jasper
undone ether
#

Palentines sweep or Drake getting debuffed?

verbal karma
#

hmm...

formal vigil
#

Probably Sidney unless you have classic blue

undone ether
#

What

#

my SC Hilda is 3/5 EX

verbal karma
#

if I were to go with Palentines sweep for R2, then I would have to somehow fit in a ghost type for the Drake team...

keen jasper
#

The only one who practically counter that is Sonia

formal vigil
#

Ingo too as long your in sandstorm

undone ether
#

Ingo buffs speed

#

so it should be fine yeah?

#

also my SC Hilda can either Impervious or jsut go full damage

#

not to mention, Bertha drops ATK and 2 other stats i dont remember

#

so i guess how long i can run 4 sandstorms worth of punching hehehe

#

so i guess

#

R1 VS Phoebe - 2 Rodents and a Corgi
R2 VS Sidney - Palentines Serena
R3 VS Drake - SC Hilda
R4 VS Glacia - SS Hilda

swift swan
#

Does Hop have Vigilance, at least? That might help. Did you get potion MPRs too?

verbal karma
#

hrrrmmm...okay, I think I ran into a problem

#

...I don't have a good Spec. Atk Rock type striker sync pair

keen jasper
#

Why does it matter? You can use any damage dealers against Drake

verbal karma
#

hmm...

swift swan
#

Pretty sure the only sp attack rock striker is Hyper Beam Classic Blue anyway

verbal karma
#

oof

#

Roxanne is Support, though

#

she's more of a tank than a nuker

#

hmm...actually

#

...should I pick the ghost type tank for R3 Drake or R4 Glacia?

#

if it's the latter, then I'd be able to have Roxanne in the team alongside two Rock-type strikers (Olivia and SS Brock)

Lovely

Too much power for a 🎈

Volkner for flinch and SSTRed for everything else.

Ash can still deal over 80k damage against Phoebe even with max HP, strength and defense parameters

#

holy fuck those sides were so annoying for 850pt wallace

#

had to make erika target sides while brendan took down mid

#

and still it was close

full mesa
#

Hoenn is annoying in general

river pagoda
#

aint no way im doing 2k until i either EX or 3/5 either of those 2

#

holy shit

keen jasper
#

Mine is too easy with Lyranium, SS Erika and Mallow

full mesa
#

I used SCLillie/Lyra/SSErika (3/5) for 2k.

keen jasper
#

Wallace's Hydro Pump is no joke tho

full mesa
#

Mallow is a queen in that stage.

river pagoda
#

eee all my 5 stars r 1/5 except for may, skyla, ss elesa and thts it

😔

#

hydro pump is less annoying than the surfs

#

ngl

full mesa
#

You have to pull more.

river pagoda

cuz surfs absolutely body brendan and sceptile

#

i dont want to pull more

That's the only way.

verbal karma

#

I had my big Powerboost after third Annie where I pulled for 5 characters with enough gems to pity all of them.

keen jasper
#

Oh yeah, H. Jasmine is a tank with SEUN

#

Maybe she can help SS Wally damage cap max HP, strength and defense parameter Sidney

river pagoda
#

thankfully even with no stat reductions mina is a decent fairy dps

full mesa
river pagoda
#

she's carried me in fairy weak stages in cs this past month Prayge thank god

full mesa
#

I couldn't make Mina work. 20k sync with 2x sync buff and -6 att. Didn't kill...

river pagoda
#

2kmm?

full mesa
#

Yes

river pagoda
#

eee

#

i did tht and wallace at 850

#

might go higher for tht stage cuz it wasnt too bad

#

but im not going past 850 for wallace

#

thtll be pain

swift swan
full mesa
verbal karma
#

since Drake is going physical, I want a physical tank

#

and since Glacia is going special, I want a special tank

#

now here's the thing: Roxanne is both a special AND a physical tank

full mesa
#

Roxanne then. But you'll have to use a special nuker. Or Phoebe for physical.

keen jasper
river pagoda
#

anyone getting a grid expansion/power boost this month aside from ssleaf/marnie?

verbal karma
#

none of my Rock-type nukers are special

#

they are all physical

u can offtype

Joly crap he actually a flinch lmao

#

SC Hilda can +3 Crit and Speed herself.

she also gets Towering Force and Inertia

Besides, like I said, you can use any type of damage dealer you want against Drake

ah wait, not exactly fully physical

but close enough

full mesa
#

I need to check Agatha's boost.

river pagoda
full mesa
#

Yes

verbal karma
#

hmm...wait, hold on

#

why a sand setter?

swift swan
#

I mean, Blaine's not getting any grid expansion yet

swift swan
#

and we recommend nuke Olivia over DPS Olivia

full mesa
#

To activate more multipliers for Olivia. Under sand she can easily off type too.

swift swan
#

she's a much better nuker anyway

river pagoda
#

he needs a grid period 😔 tired of putting a sun setter tht doesnt do much outside of tht + trap and the occasional burn

river pagoda
#

id put ss erika but i usually pair her w brendan for future stages

swift swan
verbal karma
#

sorry, but I can't grid out Olivia

#

like, at all

#

I don't have Sync Orbs

full mesa
#

How many do you have right now?

river pagoda
#

ty

keen jasper
verbal karma
full mesa
#

You have 5.4k + 2k = 7.4k orbs. If you can get another 100 through events or dating simulator thingy you can grid her. Do either 4.2k or 7.5k goal to get the 2k orbs from MM rewards and then redo for 10k.

verbal karma
#

nonono

#

I don't have 5.4k orbs

#

I have

#

literally 54 orbs

#

I really am THAT broke when it comes to yellow orbs

undone ether
#

Nice 15k sync move hehe

full mesa
#

You have 6 days left this week. 5.4k orbs (900 per day). +2k from MM (up until 7.5k points iirc) equals 7.4k. You need only 100 more. If you farm the dating simulator thingy daily you might find some orbs through the chests.

swift swan
#

well you can always wait until you can get more sync orbs then. you have a week for CS anyway

#

no rush doing it day 1

swift swan
#

and have you done the monthly shop exchange? you can buy sync orbs from the shop monthly

full mesa
#

No. Either use them for 150 pass or move levels.

river pagoda
swift swan
#

plus event shops give us sync orbs as well

full mesa
#

Since you have an unlimited amount of them.

undone ether

WHOA WHOA WHOA

swift swan

#

700 damage glacia?!

then redo for 10k

She crits hard wtf?

river pagoda

ah i see

full mesa
swift swan
undone ether
full mesa
swift swan
#

still. this is her stats at base

full mesa
#

Even at -6 with only +8 str she would hit for 500+k with 1 sync buff.

#

I'm waiting for Eevee's f2p guide. It's always fun to watch them.

swift swan
#

eevee let me know if you can ontype sidney f2p VolknerDed

#

I gave up on Mina

31k post-support EX sync, with SEUP next. Sidney lived with a sliver of HP and got to sync

did it

sincei started last month

#

😩

old orchid
verbal karma
#

hmm...well, without sync grid skills, Olivia won't benefit from Sand Storm anyway, so...uh...

#

Roxanne/Olivia/???

full mesa
#

Just battle. No boost it's the easiest. Hard mode doesn't really need that much thought. What type are you missing?

verbal karma
#

...should the last slot be SS Brock or a ghost type sync pair for the type medal?

undone ether
#

Yummy xD

full mesa

Forget about the combo. Tell us what type do you miss and send an ss with your units. We have to fill those first.

How many battles have you completed?

undone ether

Fully buffed stats with what i had, for SS Hilda's attack

not sure with my current team for Wallace

I keep getting rekt

1.5k post sync

Yo wtf this is the first time my SSWally is struggling on a fairy weak stage

#

I tried with Sycamore and roxie

Skyla and roxie

#

Sidney is so tanky

I had to put grad healing with post sync

Welcome to Hoenn. A place where we have absurdly high stats from no apparent reason.

swift swan

Hoenn is like... tanky canons

undone ether
#

haha

#

died

spring fable
undone ether
#

so i need to sync with meganium AFTER his

full mesa
#

Sinnoh is hard and challenging. Hoenn is annoying and frustrating.

spring fable
#

Yes

swift swan
swift swan
#

if you know the flinch timing and move pattern of the opponents, they can barely get a move in

#

Before the enemy sync, the pattern goes mid, right, mid, left, repeat

#

after that I don't know, I almost never postsync and when I do, the sides are dead long before then

swift swan
frosty axle
#

Took a bit of thinking but did my F2P run

swift swan
#

hi eevee MayHey

#

what did you use vs Sidney VolknerDed

frosty axle
#

hi November

swift swan
#

let me know if you can make Mina work

#

I gave up on her

frosty axle
#

I did get her to work

#

wasn't the easiest

full mesa
#

I'm waiting for the video.

swift swan
#

I preached Mina for Fairy-weak Cynthia last month but vs Sidney... I just couldn't do it. my damage was so close to OHKOing Sidney post-support sync but since the devs decided Sidney should have oh-so-bulky HP, I couldn't oneshot

undone ether
#

Done ooof

formal vigil
#

Just use her with sycamore and hop what I did last time

full mesa
#

I did SSBlue/Mina/Sycamore. Sycamore had to stall the sides.

swift swan
#

normally for fairy-weak (except Cynthia) I use Sycamore/Lisia/SS Lyra but it's basically SS Lyra carrying the battle on her onion fairy's back SophoKEK

frosty axle
#

Problem with Cynthia is that it needs sp.atk debuff not attack mostly

full mesa
#

SSLyra is the No 1 princess.

formal vigil
#

Ss lyra the goat

#

Is exes required a must for 1.5k?

Depends on the unit. Supports are always welcome.

my SS Lyra looks weird guys

Then why am I failing

frosty axle

for 2k I would say ex is probably helpful

spring fable
swift swan
swift swan
swift swan
frosty axle
#

Was fun using both Lyra together

formal vigil
#

Yeah

swift swan
#

I know I did a non-EX Olivia clear vs rock-weak Flint way back when it first came out and Acerola flinches saved my ass

#

in general I think you should be fine. Drake has low offenses to begin with and no inflated HP

#

his only important gimmick is debuffing speed

#

and it's not like he has multipliers based on speed debuffs either

spring fable
#

What’s the odds of her flinch?

frosty axle
#

flinch and sleep are really easy ways to win with weak teams

swift swan
swift swan
#

like rock-weak drake's passive is the perfect set-up for cakewalk/hunter's instinct but luckily he doesn't have that

spring fable
#

Do I need dupes for her

swift swan
#

no

#

never

#

Acerola has one of the best 1/5 grids out there

frosty axle
#

ye acerola base form does it for 120 orbs

swift swan
#

you literally only need two tiles: Astonish: Aggravation 1 and Sandstorm MP Refresh, both at 1/5

#

she's a story unit and a 5* tech even. no one's candying her unless she's a huge fave WEEZing

frosty axle
#

I would candy her if she got a very good expanded nuke grid

swift swan
#

I wouldn't because I'm comfortable with ghost types as it is JasmineRelax

frosty axle
#

Just want to do it for a physical ghost for F2P

swift swan
#

personally wouldn't call needing two tech candies f2p-friendly HilbertHmm it takes quite a lot of investment

spring fable
#

That’s all?

frosty axle
spring fable
#

So just astonish mid stone edge mid, astonish right stone edge right?

keen jasper
verbal karma
#

quick question: is regular Leaf as a tank both good and expendable?

#

because if I would use her for R4 against Glacia, I'd be able to use a better tank for R5 against Wallace

swift swan
spring fable
#

Eek

#

Should I start flinching since t1 or use xdef

verbal karma
swift swan
#

Acerola's flinches should follow the enemy's move pattern: mid, right, mid, left, repeat

#

note that the enemy may switch to using a trainer move when they're flinched, but it's fine as long as you don't take damage

verbal karma
#

...okay, for R5, do I want to include permanent field effects or nah?

keen jasper
#

Just change the weather

spring fable
#

I killed mid but sides got me

verbal karma
#

since that's exactly what my idea was: replace Wallace's rain with Blaine's sun

main crow
#

Well yeah R4 param is the best one

spring fable
#

Yo trini have you unlocked mm

keen jasper
verbal karma
#

...and of course, Blaine is literally unable to to MP refresh...

#

and I already used up SS Erika

swift swan
#

we can try another strategy if that's the case

spring fable
#

9k maybe

river pagoda
spring fable
#

9k ish

river pagoda
#

if ur talking abt wallace

keen jasper
swift swan
#

hmmm, under sand?

#

She should have her nuke grid

#

Inertia and Sand Blaster

spring fable
#

I went sandless and was flinching on turn 1

swift swan
#

hmmm try to make a time window for acerola to use sandstorm, at least

swift swan
spring fable
#

2nd!

swift swan
#

how much was 1st sync?

#

this is drake's stats when I put in the 1.5k presync parameters. with two syncs under sand, I think Olivia should be able to kill drake just with nuke alone. so she can freely stone edge the sides

#

you can probably do a few stone edges on drake, but focus on sides for the DPS, if they're giving you trouble

spring fable
#

I’m doing post sync

#

1st sync

frosty axle
spring fable
#

I ran sandless grid and started trying to flinch on t1

halcyon sail
#

My trauma must have suppressed the memory of this Glacia, but this stage is awful

frosty axle
#

surprisingly I breezed through Glacia

#

;p

swift swan
#

same, but I can't say much because my team is overkill incarnate

#

only had trouble vs sidney this week

spring fable
#

😮

swift swan
frosty axle
#

Well all I can say is free Blue Arcanine is amazing and so is Hooh as an alternative

swift swan
#

she really appreciates the multipliers

spring fable
#

So should I do post or presync?

frosty axle
#

post

#

is what i do

alright, Type Medal completed, but man

that was ugly

Now the real fun begins

at least I'll be smarter this time and use Blaine for R4 Glacia instead of Wallace

yeah, that was my plan

swift swan

use Blaine for Glacia so I can use SS Erika for Wallace

anyway, I got 185 iChampSpirit now

swift swan
verbal karma
#

oof

spring fable
#

Nope seemed to do lesser with sand

verbal karma
frosty axle
spring fable
#

I did

#

5k 1st sync with sand

frosty axle
#

is that at 3/5?

spring fable
#

4/5

frosty axle
#

then you should hit a lot harder

verbal karma
#

because I am still struggling with EBE Alder Part 2 and the optional missions for the Battle Challenge 2 of the second Johto Rocket event

main crow
#

Just flinch him ez

swift swan
#

even with Red as a partner

#

sigh

verbal karma
#

if I were to do the latter, then I'd only be able to do the EX-ing for EBE Alder Part 2 since Kris doesn't even have 20 iGoldPowerUp fed

main crow
#

Damn Mina presync?

#

That's smth

verbal karma
#

...neither does Karen, but at least she has 3 iGoldPowerUp fed instead of the 0 that Kris has

swift swan
spring fable
#

Hmm tried again, still 1st sync 5k

the best I got was 31k post-support EX sync with SEUP next

verbal karma
swift swan
spring fable
#

Yes

frosty axle
#

can you show the grid

main crow
swift swan
spring fable
swift swan
#

looks good already HilbertHmm

verbal karma
#

...then again, the problem with Karen is not the lack of an EX, but the lack of a Vigilance skill

swift swan
#

you'll probably appreciate CS2 instead for better damage. random crits on AOE moves are rare

verbal karma
#

and I fresh ran out of the blue lucky cookies trying to get Vigilance

spring fable

Oh I’ll be honest, none of my pairs have lucky skill

I’m not ready to throw cookies and not get the one I want HildaCry

followed immediately by 10k'ing Sinnoh when it first came out because I was super stubborn and wanted to continue my 10k streak

Johto was my first CSMM, and i remember doing it without knowing the existence of the presync/post sync/stall points guide

frosty axle

yep but he's better now

swift swan

I'm pretty stubborn and always do 2k hyper offensive params, so my resets usually happen because the enemy opens with a hard-hitting move and one-shots my tank WEEZing

change the weather with ss erika, bring a crit buffer as your third unit, and you're fine

spring fable
#

think i can 1550 him to make up for my prev 1450?

steel kelp
#

What’s the Wallace team

swift swan
#

you can even 2k I bet lol

#

SS erika hits so damn hard

steel kelp
#

Oh you can definitely 2k him

keen jasper
#

My SS Erika did 51k with SEUN under sun and with EX support

steel kelp
#

Pick perma field and watch as he never goes near grass again

keen jasper
swift swan
#

my SS Erika is 2/5 VolknerDed

steel kelp
#

Mine is 1/5 SophoKEK

#

Good thing I have SS lyra 3/5

#

And even then I have Brendan 5/5

spring fable
#

sycamore as 1st target?

keen jasper
#

Do you have an EX supporter?

spring fable
#

not one with crit rate up

#

skyla and ghetsis left

swift swan
#

sabrina?

spring fable
#

sync with her first?

swift swan
#

if she's not EX'd, no need

#

just sync with Sycamore

#

then the rest goes to SS Erika

#

sabrina is just there for crit buffs (make sure she has the critical squad on grid to max crit)

keen jasper
#

SS Erika already maxes out her own stats

swift swan
#

also sabrina can heal too I guess

spring fable
#

ah currently using normal lyra

keen jasper
#

EX-ed or not?

spring fable
#

no 😦

keen jasper
spring fable
#

1/5 only

swift swan
swift swan
keen jasper
#

Do you have any grass DDs that are 3/5?

swift swan
#

ooooh that already sounds so fun. Permanent MGA from sycamore, permanent sun from SS Erika, permanent light screen from Lyra

#

good luck to wallace if he wants to make a dent

spring fable
#

err

#

i didnt see what happen

#

but sycamore got one shotted by smth

main crow
#

Hydro pump opener?

spring fable
spring fable
swift swan
#

probably hydro pump

#

was that before his 1st sync?

#

and what's the third unit you eventually used

#

also remember to use sun turn 1. hydro pump hits so damn hard

spring fable
#

went with lyra

#

i sunned and light screened t1

swift swan
#

sounds good already. you took the perma field effects param right

#

make sure Sycamore has his Horn Leech grid too. literally watch him recover from red health to full HP if horn leech crits and has master healer

spring fable
#

wait they changed the weather

#

i got closer

swift swan
#

good luck! you got this

#

I'll be here writing my uni essay while occasionally checking in to procrastinate as moral support

spring fable
#

First 7.5k clear!!

#

yes ss erika died to surfs

#

ty all for the help!

swift swan
#

well done!

spring fable
#

those spirits look tempting

swift swan
#

are we really at the point where new players get more iGoldPowerUp than iChampSpirit HilbertHmm

#

those spirits literally never tempt me. I have 800 of them and I get them faster than I can ever spend them

swift swan
#

once I discovered horn leech sycamore, I just never went back

I never use any other sycamore haha

#

Thank you

#

Glad to see you finally

toxic cobalt
#

Yeah I've been busy

#

Cleared last week last minute

#

Decided to just go nuts and used Ashchu and Archie

swift swan
#

Oh aurochs

#

I gave up on Mina

trail smelt
#

Ah the can’t stop won’t stop team lol

swift swan
#

I was preaching her for the entirety of fairy-weak Sinnoh

#

But Sidney just... Chose to be very bulky

toxic cobalt
#

Hoenn is too bulky

swift swan
#

31k post-support EX sync with SEUP next. That was my best with her (no zone)

toxic cobalt
#

I was in awe of how little damage my Alder did last week

swift swan
#

And of course sidney lived that EusineWhy

#

AAAAAAA

solemn pine
#

damn glacia having sync regen

toxic cobalt
swift swan
#

...well damn

#

Ok but that was R1 wasn't it

#

Flinch cheese

#

At least now I don't feel insecure over my Mina's nuke damage anymore SophoKEK

steel kelp
#

That seems like a lot of work for something that could be off typed RosaThink

swift swan
#

It sure is

toxic cobalt
#

Lot of work? A first try win?

swift swan
#

Sometimes you just want to ontype for your own self-satisfaction and it costs you your sanity

sand karma
#

Why does he not take damage even after lowering everything

toxic cobalt
swift swan
#

Guess I can't do it the conventional way without any cheeses huh WhitneySad

#

Well I've seen eevee's clear with Mina

toxic cobalt
#

I just went with flinch instead because it was a proof of concept

#

Mina 3 bar strong

swift swan
#

I did manage to quadqueue and all. But went with support EX sync instead of two Mina syncs HilbertHmm

toxic cobalt
#

Sydney lived that?

swift swan
#

Yeah, I dealt 31k

#

He lived

toxic cobalt
swift swan
#

I mean, 29k is at base

frosty axle
#

probably parameters maybe

toxic cobalt
#

Strength

#

30Hp per strength or something?

swift swan
#

And I had some strength params to complete my 2k

toxic cobalt
#

300*

swift swan
#

Let me see sidney's final HP with my params

frosty axle
#

3600 extra health at max

halcyon sail
#

Wallace and Glacia were kind of a problem for me, both like spamming strong aoe moves

toxic cobalt
#

Aoe is a nightmare

frosty axle
#

so 28960 plus 3600

swift swan
#

Well damn

toxic cobalt
keen jasper
swift swan
#

Params used

frosty axle
swift swan
toxic cobalt
#

Huh.

#

I thought they would do more

#

Especially with 2x sync buff

frosty axle
toxic cobalt
#

Nov appears to have solved this with Zerena

swift swan
toxic cobalt
#

Also I can't believe you accused me of flinchax when you used SS Lyra

swift swan
#

Even the zerena team took 2 tries because I couldn't quadqueue (don't have brendan's adrenaline grid). So i had to deny a side

#

VS Wallace though! And she was tanking WhitneySad

toxic cobalt
#

What did SS Erika do to you anyway?

#

Only one that can get an EX there that you were all naaah

hidden ore
#

Is TB Red good for Sidney?

toxic cobalt
#

Just checking, no-one to avoid for Round 4?

swift swan
#

Brendan likes it

toxic cobalt
#

Do to you, not for you

toxic cobalt

swift swan
toxic cobalt
#

Eh if it's only on entry that's fine. I was just burned last week when three of them used weather

swift swan
#

I'll admit, last time we had Fairy-weak Sidney, I cheesed it with this team. SS Lyra carried this whole battle on her onion fairy's back

swift swan
toxic cobalt
#

Does ice face block flinch/sleep?

toxic cobalt
swift swan
swift swan
#

I suppose not sleep? It's not a physical move

#

But idk about flinch. Guess it can take 0 damage and still be flinched? Hypothetically

toxic cobalt
swift swan
#

If you want to flinchlock Glacia, by all means please do

#

She hits so hard for no reason

#

So it's better if she doesn't hit at all

toxic cobalt
#

Just wondering if she is the hardest. Additional effects is powerful.

#

Bulky HP and high attack is just rude tbh.

#

Pick one.

#

Urgh just saw she sets hail on sync too???

swift swan
#

She'll be like this on the fourth week too

steel kelp
#

Glacia r4 smile

swift swan
#

I'd reaaally change the weather

steel kelp
#

Set up sun and watch her melt

toxic cobalt
#

Probably going to try flinch that second hail, if it's a move

swift swan
#

She has healing hail? Or whatever it's called

#

And master healer 2

toxic cobalt
#

This is anti-Silverism

swift swan
#

Which... i suppose affects the healing hail? Idk

solemn pine
#

master healer plus sync regen

#

i just did beat the stage post sync

swift swan
#

oh wait. master healer just applies to healing moves

#

so... draining kiss

#

lol it doesn't matter much

solemn pine
#

i think it also applies to her sync regen

#

since she gets gradual healing

swift swan
#

it's not a move so I don't think it counts. master fair specifically states "healing moves"

nova galleon
#

Any team suggestions for 10k points

keen jasper
steel kelp
#

This week is kinda easy

#

Especially with your roster

swift swan
#

Silver, Ash, SS Steven, Cerena can all carry their separate teams

nova galleon
#

For fairy weak

swift swan
#

also please screenshot from the move level menu next time

steel kelp
#

You could even off type if needed

swift swan
keen jasper
#

Ash for Phoebe, Victor for Wallace, Silver/SS Hilda/SS May for Glacia and the rest of the E4 can be off-typed

nova galleon
swift swan
#

SS Steven just wants a tank and psychic terrain user

dark osprey
nova galleon
dark osprey
#

Maybe her along with May and a good support could offtype as well

#

Can try her dark mode as well for offtyping

#

With Nessa probably

nova galleon
toxic cobalt
#

Are you getting rid of hail?

nova galleon
#

I used ss Hilda and Blaine for sunny weather and skyla

nova galleon
#

For round 4

keen jasper
#

You don't have a Sp. Def. buffer

nova galleon

austere quest
#

Been trying SS Hilda on Glacia and oh boy is that not great

#

Going to have to try something else because she keeps dying before Sync 1 which is very funny

swift swan
#

you mean your team's first sync?

#

she's a good option vs Glacia... glacia just hits too damn hard

sand karma
#

Does Sidney gain something at half health that makes him super tanky or something?

sand karma
#

My SSWally sync did more damage the first time than after the rebuff the second time

#

What parameter do you guys choose when you can't give up stat reduction and status fx

keen jasper
#

Because he'd definitely deal more damage because of the rebuff and those extra stats

sand karma
keen jasper
formal vigil
#

Were they both under fairy zone

keen jasper
#

Oh yeah, and that too

sand karma
keen jasper

#

I tried using gradual healing at start parameter it was not happening now I'm trying with reduced ally hp

austere quest
#

Glacia was the hardest out of everyone today

#

Drake, I had to offtype because I wasn’t able to survive First Sync with my SC Hilda team

#

Managed to kill him before he sync’d offtype

#

Not sure if that’s an issue on my reliance on offtyping

As long as it gets the job done does it matter

Hope for paralysis procs

used hau as the para proc lol

#

now I have to face endless hail

keen jasper
formal vigil
#

It's fine replace it with perma sun

keen jasper
#

Before you sync with your nuker, make sure to change the weather to sunny

pine spruce
#

or maybe rain?

#

there's an eiscue though

keen jasper
#

Because you know, Glacia uses Hail before she syncs

keen jasper
toxic cobalt
#

Sun first turn and then sun right after hail

#

Then all you have to do is survive normal Glacia SeleneLul

keen jasper
#

Silver will melt her to death

pine spruce
#

I sprayed her pressurized water

#

Anyway, what bonus effect should I pick on wallace?

keen jasper
#

Most grass-types benefit from sun

full mesa
#

Also hydro pump and surf are powerful under weather.

austere quest
#

Fair

pine spruce
#

surf deffo became 100+ damage per hit after 2 syncs

It's raining?

and first medal complete!

#

For an optimization run would it be considered cheating to change my tactics HilbertHmm

subtle forge
#

No? I change my tactics during my optimize runs

#

No one’s looking over my shoulder and telling me I’m wrong

void wyvern
#

B-but the game says “this” is the best strategy! /jk

subtle forge
#

Life is a lot nicer when you realize there ain’t someone whispering over your shoulder how wrong you are

#

At least online and mostly irl

void wyvern
#

Those are actually really good words to live by.

subtle forge
#

It could happen sometimes irl like literally. But at that point I would just smack the other person away tbh

#

Anyways this is CS chat. I will do my run later

void wyvern
#

Phoebe is officially grinding my gears, I’ve missed thunder twice in a row with accuracy up by two stages.

trail smelt
#

With Eggchu?

void wyvern
rigid flint
#

So accuracy isn't an issue

#

Well assuming people are using the 3 passives eggmons

long thicket
#

A little surprised, but I got 2k Drake in two turns.

#

WHAT???

#

Okay, something went weird.
After the fight, it said I've reached 1800 points, but it does say 2000 in the menu.

#

Anyway, did it with Ingo, Emmet and Classic Blue, no EXes.

#

I see, I was worried I did something wrong with the parameters.

keen silo
#

Does glacia have any accuracy buffs

old orchid
#

Yes

#

She has Pinpoint Entry 2

keen silo
#

Ok thanks 👍

swift swan
#

good morning CS chat, I made this on a whim

toxic cobalt
#

Glacia is a crit buffer now

swift swan
#

slight improvement but still

molten nimbus
#

glacia now is surely isnt a slight improvement lol

#

she's now a usable unit

toxic cobalt
#

Glacia has no power over a Round 1 Whitney

old orchid
#

Whitney is an E4 MarleyWhat

swift swan
#

flincher Whitney

#

vs R1 Glacia

old orchid
#

Oh

swift swan
#

I guess that's a safe way of handling glacia. flinch her whenever she wants to do blizzard/icy wind

keen jasper
swift swan
#

yeah, if you can

pine spruce
#

man I don't think I can do MM yet

swift swan
#

it's alright, everyone has their own pace

#

the bare minimum to get all the good rewards is 4.2k but you can always try with lower points first

keen jasper
#

But when you're beginning, you can go as high as you can right?

#

Like me when I started my very first MM, I immediately jumped to 7.9k pts.

old orchid
#

I joined during the 1st anni, but only began doing CS since Johto

swift swan
#

When was Johto

old orchid
#

Jan 2020 iirc

swift swan
#

I started in 2nd anni and after doing 4.2k points, I just raised my points a couple hundred every week

#

only started doing 10k in April

#

the difficulty jump scared me lol

keen jasper
#

I started in April 1 this year

old orchid
#

I remember doing 3 stall teams

swift swan
#

my first 10k was Kanto, and then I immediately 10k'd Sinnoh out of stubbornness because I didn't want to lose my 10k streak lmao

#

been doing 10k since then

keen jasper
#

I think my first and only time that I used poison stall was against Cynthia

swift swan
#

I stalled quite a lot of stages

old orchid
#

Me too

swift swan
#

I think my main reason I held off doing 10k for so long was I didn't know the right parameters

old orchid
#

I still remember when i struggled with bug weak Karen even with stall

swift swan
#

I discovered presync parameters, tweaked it a bit, and been using hyper offensive params for 10k since then SeleneLul someone save me from this addictive hellhole lmao

old orchid
#

I usually do strength 6 parameters with a bit atk param

keen jasper
#

I sometimes switch from Strength 6 to HP 6

old orchid
#

I rarely pick HP 6 unless i want to play techs

#

But not in Sinnoh and Hoenn CS

#

They are so bulky

swift swan
#

sometimes I wish I had picked HP 6 because the battle ended too quickly

#

last week Kris was doing 13k per mega kick and I couldn't even see her nuke

toxic cobalt
#

DPS is underrated

keen jasper
#

When I usually test a unit's full potential, I always go with max HP, defense and strength parameters

swift swan
#

huh

#

I imagine you'd want no defensive buffs at all so you can see the biggest numbers

keen jasper
swift swan
#

fair

keen jasper
#

Like when I did water-weak Steven with 3/5 Cerena, she still damage capped Steven at max HP, strength and defense parameters even with -1 water rebuff

old orchid
#

The frog is crazy op

swift swan
#

that's what we say to almost all recent techs

#

this fire chicken is crazy OP. this V-looking gremlin is very OP. this frog is very OP. this rat is very OP.

keen jasper
#

And Cerena did 22k against dark-weak Phoebe, did not crit and without dark zone with max HP, strength and defense paramters

#

So Cerena can also damage cap any dark-weak stage even with max HP, strength and defense parameters assuming it doesn't have SE x2

old orchid
#

Im thinking of candying Cerena to 3/5 next, but i like Anni May more and there are SC Rosa and SSTRed needing candies

keen jasper
#

She can also potentially damage cap off-type, but that is without defensive parameters

#

Also, does the R1 parameter work with innate passives and not grid passives?

old orchid
#

It only works with secondary effect of moves

dark osprey
#

I think it works like a hostile environment. It shouldn't work on staggering right?

keen jasper
#

Ahh too bad, I was hoping for 60% AoE flinch with Cerena

old orchid
#

Like it boosts the chance of flinch of Thunder Fang, but it doesnt work on Aggravation 4 in Volkner's case

keen jasper
keen jasper
#

SS Lyra 2.0 SeleneLul

void wyvern
#

I never missed a single flinch.

old orchid
#

It does because it boosts the innate flinch chance

void wyvern
#

Ooooh. I see.

old orchid
#

It makes him 100% chance to flinch

void wyvern
#

20x5 is 100

keen jasper
#

10 (base) * 5 (HE4) * 2 (Round parameter)

void wyvern
#

I see I see. That makes a lot of sense.

#

in other news. Roxxane is a better striker than grant

old orchid
#

Innate Surging Sand 5 win BellisScience

toxic cobalt
#

You’re saying I should’ve Roxanned Drake?

keen jasper
#

Man I really wished that extra effect parameter could work on passives

#

I really would love 60% AoE flinch chance with Cerena, that way people will question why they spent on SS Lyra SophoKEK

#

I can kill mid with roxxane. I just can’t kill the sides.

old orchid
keen jasper
#

If her HP was higher, then she would've been even better

dark osprey
#

They could have at least given her the quick fix for that with first aid

#

And synchro healing would have been nice with an EX

old orchid
#

Erika stole her ex lottery MistyAnger

#

At least she has Endurance for extra hit AcerolaPensive
