Champion Stadium

[pure haven]

I know lol

[nocturne pawn]

how am i not able to get second sync on r2

its weird

cuz i got quad queue and adrenaline but i still couldn’t

maybe it was tm propulsion fucking me up

[pure haven]

U need them not to use defense x, use tm on first turn, get the semn

[tribal agate]

yeeeep

[nocturne pawn]

is this a candeez clear

[tribal agate]

lemme go fetch the params

[pure haven]

Yea

[tribal agate]

yeah a specific one for Weel

video is uploading

i did an oopsie in this run

because i had interference immunity

so no flinches which is bad but hey

and Steven shouldn't have done that second tackle, that was a miss on my end

now params

[stoic ether]

how to check if a stage has wise entry or not?

[tribal agate]

pins

pomatools has them or our pins

[stoic ether]

oh, so no way to check ingame?

[nocturne pawn]

only drake does

[tribal agate]

ingame it pops real quick at the start of the stage on the pokemon
otherwise no

[nocturne pawn]

unless you try it out

[stoic ether]

ahh

[nocturne pawn]

yeah thats pretty impossible to see

[stoic ether]

I wasnt paying attention and was trying to offtype with special and i was like "ohno"

[nocturne pawn]

especially with drake cuz he has like 4 different passives at once

[stoic ether]

🤣

[pure haven]

Is ur Candice 5*?

Cuz mine is 4* and did 22k

[tribal agate]

yes but that shouldn't be a huge dmg difference i'm working on on a solution

1 star shouldn't be a 8k dmg diff

[nocturne pawn]

im just gonna off type all of these cuz i cbf to actually tryhard any of these

ice is not a good type for me rn

[pure haven]

Hmm

Prolly my params are wrong

[nocturne pawn]

1/5 calyrex aint gonna do shit 💀

[stoic ether]

i dont even have that lol

[tribal agate]

https://i.imgur.com/m5JcR4b.mp4

[stoic ether]

my best is like isteven and lusamine

my ice is really lacking

[tribal agate]

these params will put Drake at 25k HP

[old orchid]

i can see Ghetsis and both Candice erasure

Lusamine is worse than ones i mentioned

[tribal agate]

if PoMatools is correct, a one rarity difference is like 1000 dmg

at best

[manic mica]

.

[tribal agate]

oh yeah @pure haven apologies for the ping

in the video you can see i use B Leer before sync

might wanna do X Speed All too before her sync

to maximize Inertia

since at that point she is at +5 speed

[dark osprey]

1/5 holiday Leon is kinda nice. Can combine with someone like Wulfric for the non bulky stages

[nocturne pawn]

on 2.5k?

fuck no lmao

[pure haven]

I don't mind

[old orchid]

1/5 Jingleon needs heavy support to work well

[tribal agate]

but yeah if Pomatools is correct

with all that setup

and 4*

[nocturne pawn]

^^^

[tribal agate]

you should do 28k on average

Drake has 25k HP

it's just gonna be a rng battle that he gets -6 def

[nocturne pawn]

his self set up is really bad

[dark osprey]

With a decent support EX I guess and nuke with Wulfric

[manic dust]

Thanks for the video! Super helpful. If I have Hilbert EXed is it worth syncing with him first, or nah?

[old orchid]

i dont have him but i think this is likely to work

[manic mica]

Took a while but here. I think it's right

[nocturne pawn]

yeah but wulfric

[tribal agate]

if you mean the Candice video then no, but that setup was specifically made for Weel's team

[manic dust]

Cool, gotcha!

[nocturne pawn]

oh my god i cant

what the fuck is with this flinch rng

[tribal saddle]

Calerex+Ingo+Emmet

[nocturne pawn]

agatha used air slash

flinch + spatk drop proc

like fuck off

[keen jasper]

[tribal agate]

I don't think your roster is good enough to tackle this special CS at 2500
at least if you were aiming for 2500 i'd forget about it
if you were going for less tho there can be some strategies attempted but overall you critically lack limited pairs and experience to make it comfortable enough

[manic mica]

I just want the gems

That's my whole aim

I'm aware I'm not good enough to even think about adding stuff against me

[quaint solar]

Open your wallets

[nocturne pawn]

THE FUCKING

[old orchid]

maybe try with no MM first, to get the gems

[nocturne pawn]

DRIFBLIM

GOT AN OMNI BOOST

💀

[tribal agate]

if it's only for gems then yeah

#1010307000346878062 message

keep this tip as a baseline

and make sure to triple queue

you'll want to put your damage dealers and build around them

[manic mica]

I've looked at that stuffs. I'm just unsure what to build that'll help with the evtn

I know how to triple cue and stuff

[pure haven]

[tribal agate]

well it's simple

[pure haven]

Bruh I'm dying lmao

[tribal agate]

pick your damage dealers first such as

Candice, Gladion, Eusine, Ghetsis (for last round) for example

you check their kit and what they buff, grid if necessary

then you complement with a support

[nocturne pawn]

wait does r2 prevent double sync

[tribal agate]

for example Gladion needs critical hit
Ghetsis needs special attack

third slot adapts on needs for defenses or offenses

[nocturne pawn]

i literally cant do it for some reason

[dark osprey]

Forgot to get the sync multiplier on Wulfric though

[pure haven]

Bruh Candice didn't crit

[tribal agate]

omg

hang in there, you got this

it's definitely doable

[pure haven]

Yea

It's just

Rng

[nocturne pawn]

thats the first time ive seen someone grid slippery on hilbert

[pure haven]

[nocturne pawn]

also why can i not double sync on agatha this shit is annoying

[dark osprey]

Don't really trust the flinch that much

[nocturne pawn]

OH WAIT

I KNOW WHY

-1 SYNC

AAA

[tribal agate]

to recap the "unique" rotation

Together! > Tackle > X Speed
Together! > B Leer > Hail
X Speed All > B Leer > Focus
X Speed All > B Leer > Sync

[nocturne pawn]

that explains so much

[pure haven]

Yea

[manic mica]

Yesyes ik this. Sorru I just mean as in. A trio that'll help this event clearly. Ik how to build a team. But not one for this

[pure haven]

I haven't done that many tries cuz

I'm in the middle of calculus

[tribal agate]

no worries

[pure haven]

Please someone kill uni

[quaint solar]

Cheat

[dark osprey]

Would TM follow through grid not be able to OHKO?

[mellow linden]

Let’s maybe not advise that

[tribal agate]

you don't need follow through

i already recorded the KO without it

[quaint solar]

Omg. Buff freaking Candice and Froslass......pleeeeeease

[tribal agate]

follow through just gives sure crit, over you already having +3 crit

it's pointless, you're losing Heavy Hail 2

[dark osprey]

Just for reliability

[mellow linden]

BP Candice works alright, just generally not as the only damage-dealer

[tribal agate]

it's not reliable, you lose damage, heavy hail 2 is a must
people can survive a 80% crit chance

[plush tangle]

She's pretty good already

[nocturne pawn]

ok i know its r2 but still can you not fucking poison my calem please

[plush tangle]

[dark osprey]

Guess only for EX it's fine

[nocturne pawn]

how many freezes did you need for that

[plush tangle]

1

[tribal agate]

yeah but theirs is 4* so all the dmg is important

[plush tangle]

At the very beginning

[tribal agate]

you need to do trial and error, we can't provide you here with answers like a calculator would
give it a shot and see how it fares, then ask for why it didn't work
if you don't give it a bit of your own, we can't help

[plush tangle]

@nocturne pawn

[quaint solar]

Explain how. Because I am failing hard. 6HRs I and still stuck at R1 drake

[grand steppe]

Lorelei is a damage dealer (just a bad one)

[mellow linden]

Ey, swap the eggmon for Sonia and pit it against Agatha instead and that’s what I did

[plush tangle]

Look at the video I just pinged taiyo on

[pure haven]

MAN

I KILLED MID AND DIED TO SIDES

[manic mica]

Ohhh okay. I will! You're correct I should experiment first apologies if I seemed too demanding!

[tribal agate]

you died to sides??

they took 5 earthquakes to kill me what happened

and i didn't have a single flinch

[pure haven]

Welp that's what I get for still doing it after tanking a sandstorm earthquake first turn lol

[tribal agate]

oh

[pure haven]

Yea

I'm almost there

[tribal agate]

yeah you'll want that dragon claw or x speed all or whatever

[pure haven]

I just need a little bit more rng

And not fail crit sync

[tribal agate]

RNG checklist:

• No Earthquake on turn 1
• No X Def All on turn 2
• Super Prep 4 proc
• Sync must crit

LG people : "that's all?"

[pure haven]

Lmao

[quaint solar]

Don't see it

[tribal agate]

without master mode it's really not as scary as it looks, i encourage you to attempt some teams using the teambuilding guide
if you triple queue properly it should go smoothly, but if you find yourself dying then provide here screenshots of what didn't work and we can attempt fixing it

[nocturne pawn]

yeah im off typing all of this

i dont care enough

[manic dust]

Ah so Weel's setup requires a move lvl 3 Hilbert. I guess I can't just copy it hahahaha bummer

[pure haven]

Man how am I no hitting these crits

[plush tangle]

bro

literally just above your message

[manic mica]

I will do. Thank you do much!

[quaint solar]

I'm ding R1 Drake
Got a video for that?

[plush tangle]

sadly no

I did r4 drake

[grand steppe]

Are you countering the weather? What team are you planning?

[lunar meadow]

I found success with Abomasnow as my main damage dealer with sync nuke, and countered the weather

Drake has super high special defense, and his team benefits from sand.

You want to remove the sand and use physical damage

[quaint solar]

OK. What's the team comp you used because I tried that as well and is also not working out for me

[mellow linden]

Just show us your Ice roster, it’d probably be easier

[lunar meadow]

I used 3/5 EX Abomasnow
1/5 Eiscue (really just there because why not? You could bring any unit with flinching and be as effective)
5/5 EX Yamper

Eiscue was pretty much just there to set hail, (which was unnecessary on the first round since permanent weather) and some flinching/chip damage

Easily replaced

[grand steppe]

Wulfric or Silver (Lodge) can easily stand in for Eiscue in regards to damage/flinch.

[mellow linden]

Wulfric cannot replace Holiday Nessa in terms of damage output

Flinch, sorta

[quaint solar]

There

[mellow linden]

That’s not your Ice roster, that’s a single team

[nocturne pawn]

what is will for exactly?

[mellow linden]

The team is…less than ideal anyways

[grand steppe]

Will can flinch with Air Slash I reckon.

[nocturne pawn]

i can only assume hes there for flinch but even then theres better options for that

[grand steppe]

the team lacks follow-up damage mainly

[nocturne pawn]

yes

will should probably be a second dps ideally one that benefits from hail

also marnie is

hard

very hard

didnt even survive sync and i know she follows up with fiery wrath after that

[mellow linden]

She’s definitely team-dependent

[nocturne pawn]

maybe i try volkner for denials and paralysis

and off type with electric and r1 param

[mellow linden]

I ran Classic Elesa + Irida + Lodge Dawn and the fight was super easy, but without Classic Elesa especially the fight would almost certainly be much harder

[nocturne pawn]

classic elesa another cheatcode

because she debuffs 4 stats at once 🗿

[keen jasper]

Is there anyone else who fully on-typed all the stages?

[nocturne pawn]

like mono ice?

[plush tangle]

me

[grand steppe]

Just so you're aware. If you want to be safe you can clear the Pasio Special Stadium with master mode turned off so you can unlock the reset option incase things go bad when doing master mode and you want to reset because you need certain pairs back.

[keen jasper]

Like use all ice damage dealers

Including Gladion

[nocturne pawn]

oh thats not bad then

[plush tangle]

me

[nocturne pawn]

that’s cheating

[mellow linden]

I did

[keen jasper]

[mellow linden]

No Gladion tho

[grand steppe]

what about 5x mono-ice

[nocturne pawn]

cursed

[keen jasper]

I don't even have 15 ice units

[mellow linden]

Are there even enough Ice pairs for that?

[plush tangle]

yes

[nocturne pawn]

i also dont think theres enough units for that to counter the gimmicks

[plush tangle]

There are 18

[mellow linden]

Huh, alright

[plush tangle]

21 including the 3 eggs lol

[nocturne pawn]

because ghetsis is basically forced to be on marnie unless you want to die a painful die

honestly i shouldve off typed koga

instead of committing overkill

with ghetsus

[plush tangle]

good thing Ghetsis is just a low cost SS N

[nocturne pawn]

yeah

[plush tangle]

otherwise idk how I would've beaten Marnie lol

[mellow linden]

Classic Elesa destroys her gimmicks, which is nice for me

[nocturne pawn]

she doesnt have entry x2 right

[plush tangle]

no

[mellow linden]

Just Healthy Advantage

[plush tangle]

but she has healthy advantage

[keen jasper]

And she has speed buff multipliers

[lunar meadow]

I ran 1/5 calyrex and 1/5 Ampharos on Marnie.

I was completely blindsided by her buddy move, thankfully Ampharos had given my team endurance 😅

[grand steppe]

there's a pin with the main passives

[nocturne pawn]

should i grid anni n for he1 on blue flare for this then

i know he ignores it but im trying to double dps

[grand steppe]

whose the 2nd dps

[nocturne pawn]

im trying to figure that out lol

[grand steppe]

I'd imagine so, if the other is not a burner.

[nocturne pawn]

actually you think ss misty could work

[keen jasper]

Has anyone tried 10 stacks of PMUN with SS N's Freeze Shock?

[nocturne pawn]

cuz she has buff based multipliers

take that away shes kind of fangless

[grand steppe]

I like breaking out Anni N to do the occasional Grill the enemy team clear.

[nocturne pawn]

wait

am i having a stupid moment and forgot to uncheck special reduction 8

i think i am

ok nvm

[grand steppe]

I'm sure you can find some from the week SC Steven released.

[nocturne pawn]

ok ss elesa is weak to dark

annoying

[keen jasper]

I wanna see it with Irida and Bulurola

Well, if someone has 5/5 Bulurola

[nocturne pawn]

is it possible to get mini potion mpr he1 oar1 and tm mpr

on redlax

ok it is

just had to not take sync bp node

i kinda like this grid

[quaint solar]

40% flinch ain't ideal, who would you use then? Here

[nocturne pawn]

replace will with hala

if you can quad queue you can get support ex and candice hala is dps

[old orchid]

Ice Steven is better

Hala can nuke Drake first sync without zone

[quaint solar]

Each one of my strikers all on a separate team comp

[sand karma]

Wise entry x3 who?

[versed meteor]

Is koga sync flying?

[keen jasper]

https://tenor.com/view/raihan-pokemon-gif-19196115

[keen jasper]

Poison special

[manic dust]

Trying to build an R3 Drake team around Hala. Does he need hail?

[old orchid]

no

[late grove]

nope

[manic dust]

Sweet, thanks

[late grove]

gauge or speed

[versed meteor]

Pal mallow time to shine

[sand karma]

Mga is better than speed for Hala since he has slow windup

[manic dust]

Yeah, that's why I rarely use him! Lol

[grand steppe]

Not bulu but here you go (6 Strength)

[nocturne pawn]

slow wind up is not worth working around for hala

[keen jasper]

Very nice

[nocturne pawn]

just buff his speed like really

[grand steppe]

Well if your team doesn't buff speed, you just get it for free. Need to account for gauges though.

[mellow linden]

Show us your Techs too

I don’t care that you don’t trust them

[nocturne pawn]

every team i use him on just runs out after like 3 turns unless i use calem’s brutal swing

and most of the time i dont even on type ice

[grand steppe]

Wait... what why would they ignore techs.

[mellow linden]

They refuse to use Techs (except SS Steven) as damage-dealers because Tech EX doesn’t give AoE Sync

[nocturne pawn]

actually cringe lol

[quaint solar]

Talking a about me 🤔😅

[nocturne pawn]

sides are a nonissue compared to mid id much rather kill mid faster

[grand steppe]

EXing pryce is dedication to that stance, I'll give them credit.

[nocturne pawn]

💀

[mellow linden]

Yes, show us all your Ice roster

Techs are able to deal damage fine

[grand steppe]

playing with limits is fine, Just hard to give advice when 1/3 of the cast is missing

[quaint solar]

I showed you all my ice striker
The two tech is Abomasnow and Kyrum

[lunar meadow]

Techs are units, too!

[mellow linden]

Ghetsis would do better than Candice as a solo damage-dealer

[manic dust]

Whew thanks all -- Hala wrecked Drake

[mellow linden]

If you want to use Candice pair her with someone who can do strong regular move damage

[versed meteor]

Any unit not irida that sets hail on entry?

[quaint solar]

Was planning on using him for freeze Round 2
Didn't the said earlier that Drake is weak to physical

[grand steppe]

palBea and 3/5 Rosanta iirc

[mellow linden]

Then pair Candice with a 2nd damage-dealer

[versed meteor]

Well then

Thats annoying

[grand steppe]

why do you need hail on entry?

[nocturne pawn]

i mean weather on entry is meant to be rare

[grand steppe]

you can set it on the first or 2nd turn

[nocturne pawn]

its more of a detriment to set it on entry imo unless you have an extension passive

or you can refresh the duration

[versed meteor]

Would have liked that on r1 that i want to do koga

Since koga doesn't get rid of it

[quaint solar]

Your saying she can't Nuke it all?

[mellow linden]

I was more speaking in general terms, but yes, Drake has Wise Entryx x2, so you’d have to use Candice + a 2nd damage-dealer.

Also, you’re certain your only Ice Techs are Candice and Ghetsis? Because lacking Brycen is weird

[mellow linden]

Candice is exclusively Sync nuke

Outside of Sync Move her damage is lacking, so she needs someone with a strong regular move to supplement her

[obsidian agate]

am i better off off-typing marnie?

[nocturne pawn]

ghetsis

[obsidian agate]

he’s not doing much damage

[old orchid]

you have Ghetsis who counters her

[plush tangle]

Did you grid your Ghetsis

[old orchid]

did you inflict status conditions on her?

[plush tangle]

Because he's a free win on marnie

[quaint solar]

Give me what you would use then of your in my position

[old orchid]

she has Healthy Advantage

[obsidian agate]

should i use the status conditions param?

[old orchid]

yes

depends on your team tbh

[plush tangle]

gakon meh

[mellow linden]

Out of your roster, pick Summer Steven or Hala to pair with Candice. I think people have already suggested doing that, actually

[plush tangle]

it doesn't help

more chance to proc paralysis is meh

[mellow linden]

I personally run Candice + Holiday Nessa

But since you claim to not have her she isn’t an option

[nocturne pawn]

oh wait status conditions = 100% paralysis from volkner

[plush tangle]

ig with sleep it can work, but using sleep to counter healthy advantage

[nocturne pawn]

im so smart

[plush tangle]

No

Doesn't increase the chances to apply them

[viral moat]

Marnie was ez (I offtyped shamelessly)

[old orchid]

thats not double base chance param

[nocturne pawn]

no shame in that shes hard

[frosty axle]

F2P run of pasio https://youtu.be/YZUPgM30y3E

[grand steppe]

I approve of 2x mistys

[quaint solar]

IF i do that, then I would loose a striker. I don't have ice face or that new ice type

[grand steppe]

but I believe this has to go in #1010274591601598555 unless you're providing context for help

[mellow linden]

You can just off-type if you don’t have enough Ice types for the whole thing

[viral moat]

The help is to believe in yourself because if I can do it you can 🙏🙏🙏

[quaint solar]

Round 2 can be used and Round 5 right ?

[mellow linden]

What does the round have to do with off-typing

Off-typing does not automatically mean Poison stall, Poison stall is its own thing

Don’t you have both Greninjas? Easy off-type right there

[quaint solar]

Talking a out Round 2 effects

[lunar meadow]

In general, a lot.

I wouldn't offtype a "half sync cooldown" round, normally

[mellow linden]

I’m talking about this specific Ice weak CS

[mellow linden]

Ok, and what does increased status potency have to do with off-typing

[quaint solar]

Poison stall Round 2 tand use freeze in Round 5

[grand steppe]

The Champion Stage allows you to choose one of the four round special parameters to use in addition to the round's own special parameter.

[mellow linden]

If you want to Poison stall then sure, but off-typing is not the same thing as Poison stall

Again, don’t you have both Greninjas?

[viral moat]

If your gonna offtype make sure you check what type the enemy pokemon actually are

[grand steppe]

but Serena is a tech 🪦 💀

[viral moat]

Don't ve like me and try bring a rat to an earthquake fight

[old orchid]

#1010274591601598555 for clear results please

[pure haven]

@tribal agate

Sorry for ping

[nocturne pawn]

serena really said imma be technical with you here except ss she doesnt exist

[tribal agate]

i don't mind, also GG

[pure haven]

Man that was hard

After this I feel like bug weak Lucian wasn't that big of a deal

[pure haven]

Tysm for all the help dude

[tribal agate]

glad it worked out

[pure haven]

I'm keeping my sub-title

[tribal agate]

lol

[pure haven]

Welp, now Shauntal

Let's see what I can do

[nocturne pawn]

shauntal is easy

only one stage of evasion shouldnt be that problematic

[tribal agate]

yeah Shauntal should be easier

[nocturne pawn]

unlike a certain champion cough

[obsidian agate]

using ghetsis for marnie, he’s killing the sides but marnie is not taking much damage.. what kind of support should i use?

or who rather

[summer flare]

Is abomasnow a good carry?

[mellow linden]

Are you statusing Marnie

[nocturne pawn]

someone who can status

she has healthy advantage 8

so basically no damage unless shes statused

[obsidian agate]

ohhh

[nocturne pawn]

ideally paralysis since she has lessened mitigation

you can actually grid ghetsis for dragon breath hostile environment

[mellow linden]

Candice wants another damage-dealer teammate who can use strong regular moves, since Candice has a powerful Sync Move but is limited to Ice Punch outside of that

[obsidian agate]

thank you, i’ll see what i can do

[summer flare]

That worries me, since I'm trying to do a full on type run on marnie

But I might not have enough ice carries for that

[nocturne pawn]

just save ghetsis for r5

[mellow linden]

What’s your Ice roster?

Sometimes you gotta do something wacky, but it’s probably doable

[summer flare]

All f2p units and the recently released glaceon

The Lapras lady and glaceon are 1/5

[nocturne pawn]

oh irida’s basically a free win for any of the stages

[summer flare]

Hala is maxed out

150 5/5 EX

So is ghetsis

[mellow linden]

So Irida for one stage, Hala for another, Ghetsis for a 3rd

[lunar meadow]

And I'm at 355 scout points ☠️
I'll hit pity though

[summer flare]

But the remaining two will be pain

Since I only have stuff like Candice and brycen

[mellow linden]

The main thing that becomes an obstacle on the last 2 is that you’d pretty much be stuck with Pryce as one of the damage-dealers for one of the remaining 2 fights

[summer flare]

If I want to strictly on type

I do have obscenely strong supports, however, so I might have what it takes

cBede, SS Kris, Red, SS Brendan

[pure haven]

I'm between Maylene or Lussa for R4 Shauntal

[summer flare]

And I'm willing to make an exception for on type on gladion

[pure haven]

Prolly Maylene better for def debuff

[mellow linden]

You could try Pryce + Candice + a strong Support for Pryce (since Candice is self-sufficient) on one of the remaining 2 fights and Lorelei + BP Candice + a good Support for the 2 of them for the 2nd remaining fight

Gladion might work instead of Pryce

I’d definitely recommend just considering off-typing though, the only reason I on-typed all of mine is because I have a couple of the limiteds besides Irida

[quaint solar]

Currently not surviving 1st sync

[mellow linden]

That was not a team recommendation for you

Who’d you end up putting with Candice and who’s the Support

[grand steppe]

Make sure to provide context for replies.

• the Round
• the Team
• Who sync'd 1st / 2nd
• if you successfully quad queued / or are utilizing some kind of enemy stagger
• is sync accel involved
• etc

[quaint solar]

Here

[mellow linden]

So you ignored the people saying to bring a physical damage-dealer and brought dead weight instead

[grand steppe]

Drake has Wise Entry x2, so Froslass is gonna do less damage.

Also, Round 2 is not ideal for drake.

[mellow linden]

I think they’re still on round 1

[manic kiln]

this must be trolling at this point

[grand steppe]

well she's not dead wait per sey.

[mellow linden]

For Drake specifically I would argue she’s close enough

If it were anyone else I wouldn’t raise any concerns

But because it’s Drake she’s dead weight here

[grand steppe]

The main problem I'd imagine is having to give up 100 points to run phys/special.

[quaint solar]

I did not. I put that thought I consideration. I came close. Just can't survive 1st Sync.

[grand steppe]

Don't you want to save Froslass for another clear?

you're using up 2x hail setters for one clear

[pure haven]

Nvm cleared it with ssAcerola, Victor and Sonia

[mellow linden]

BP Candice is better reserved for elsewhere, yeah

[pure haven]

Monke supremacy

[grand steppe]

You could do Summer Steven + Candice (Abomasnow).

And then use the Special Dmg Reduction option.

[daring osprey]

My rats my rats don’t work?

Marnie is kicking my a s s

I am so close to winning but she’s so damn tanky

[mellow linden]

What parameters are you using?

And are you statusing Marnie?

[daring osprey]

Field effects and presync

[pure haven]

Yes, I like looking at paint dry and I'm tired of pretending I don't

[daring osprey]

Maybe i have to do post sync?

[mellow linden]

Are any of the Damage Reduction 8 parameters on?

[grand steppe]

Did you paralyze her?

[daring osprey]

No using strength 1

[daring osprey]

Yeah

[mellow linden]

So just to make 100% sure (since it’s a more common mistake than you’d think), Physical Damage Reduction 8, Special Damage Reduction 8, and Standard Damage Reduction 8 are all off?

[daring osprey]

Yes

[mellow linden]

Weird

OPikachus should be having no issues if those are off and you’re inflicting Paralysis.

What’s the full team?

[plush tangle]

Drake with Wise Entry x2 :

[daring osprey]

Ash auracythina pikared

[plush tangle]

(ok she's still good but not as good)

[mellow linden]

Huh

Weird

[daring osprey]

1/5 ash 1/5 AC 3/5 pikared

[plush tangle]

[paper summit]

at this point just try and record the battle because you shouldn't have any issues at all with that team

[mellow linden]

I guess maybe try going into your parameters and seeing if you can make any swaps to reduce enemy bulk

[daring osprey]

All righty

I did it

[tribal saddle]

Ash should fucking one shot

[daring osprey]

Christ I think I had a bad parameter I boosted with 5 attack and suddenly they dropped dead

[swift swan]

Another attack 5 believer!

[daring osprey]

I slap on strength or attack when I am in need of boost

[paper summit]

wait, I shouldn't squint, I use that one from time to time

[pure haven]

It's good until sides throw one AOE after mid dies and all of a sudden I'm on this channel again

[paper summit]

that's the beauty of having a strong dps to kick their ass, Soon™️

[pure haven]

Do we already know the next CS or only through datamine?

[tribal agate]

datamine

[pure haven]

[weak sleet]

Can may and Archie clear flint? And can the frogs off type Lucian this week? I don't have any good flying for 12.5k.

[mellow linden]

Would you mind sharing your Flying roster? You’d be surprised at what works well

[weak sleet]

One second

[swift swan]

For the first question: yes, may and archie can definitely clear flint

[grand steppe]

Flint debuffs Sp.Atk, not that Archie wouldn't work, it's just he'll be on an uphill battle regarding buffs.

[nocturne pawn]

i run may archie core vs flint it still works

[nocturne pawn]

5/5 darach can nuke lucian

[mellow linden]

Could do Darach + Lodge Serena + an Attack/crit Support

[weak sleet]

Like champion Bede?

[swift swan]

Don't forget darach can net you 150 free points from crit shield!

[mellow linden]

Just grid Darach for his Standfast tile

[mellow linden]

I’d personally prefer someone who does it a bit faster like a 3/5 Hilbert or 3/5 Sonia, but Champ Bede works fine if he’s not gonna be used elsewhere

[swift swan]

Sure. I was thinking about Hop, Sonia, Hilbert... You might need CBede somewhere else

[nocturne pawn]

or aaron

[mellow linden]

Aaron too, yeah

[weak sleet]

Oh yes I have all of those.

[nocturne pawn]

lserena and darach dont need that much support

[swift swan]

I keep forgetting about aaron i'm sorry king

[nocturne pawn]

although hilbert is ideal since darach cant buff his own crit

[late grove]

you can remember him having sentry entry but not his sync pair smh

[swift swan]

Aaron can buff crit too, hilbert just does it faster. Just remember you'll want to presync with Hilbert

[late grove]

anyways how are we doing in this special event

[swift swan]

I only got him to 2/5 very recently

[mellow linden]

For the most part it seems to be going well

[late grove]

3/5 or bust

[mellow linden]

Marnie has apparently been a tough fight for some

[swift swan]

I was out during the hours after reset today so I didn't see whether there was chaos

[swift swan]

At 1/5 he couldn't max crit which annoyed me, I usually use him in LG

[weak sleet]

I was thinking about using solgaleo, rats, ssa Cynthia with bede for the other rounds. That should all work fine right?

[swift swan]

Sure

[pure haven]

I had to psn stall Marnie

[swift swan]

Which team are you putting Bede in, exactly?

[pure haven]

Ghetsis for some reason wasn't cutting it

[late grove]

who are you running with him?

[mellow linden]

If it works it works, can always come back later if you wanna further investigate what happened

[weak sleet]

Bede and aura cynthia

[pure haven]

I was running Falkner, Ghetsis and Lucian

Ghetsis was doing like 600 per hit

[mellow linden]

Did you Paralyze Marnie with Dragon Breath?

[pure haven]

Nope

[mellow linden]

That’s the problem then

[weak sleet]

I was thinking that would pretty much ko Cynthia?

[late grove]

why falkner

[pure haven]

Hmm

[mellow linden]

Marnie has Healthy Advantage, which reduces damage taken when not affected by a status

[pure haven]

Yeah I need to start reading more

[north crown]

If you got palserena, free w

Otherwise look for para utility unit

[mellow linden]

Everyone’s made a mistake like that at some point, what’s important is that you learned from it

[pure haven]

Didn't have any other spatk/crit buffer

[late grove]

no ssb?

sycamore?

[north crown]

Isn’t ghetsis self sufficient?

[mellow linden]

Sorta

[pure haven]

Sycamore doesn't buff crit right?

[pure haven]

Yea

[mellow linden]

Team Sharp Entry 1 in grid with Power Boost, but otherwise no

[pure haven]

It's just that I probably played him bad and that why it failed

[north crown]

Lmao just bring spatk+speed buffer as support

[late grove]

he does via powerboost

[pure haven]

I don't have it

[weak sleet]

For Marnie in champion stadium, I was going to use iridia, SS leaf (poison), and some support of some kind.

[pure haven]

I'm mourning a Kalos VA rerun

[mellow linden]

That should work

[pure haven]

I don't know why we had a Hoenn VA rerun so soon

[late grove]

prob hoenn content soon

[pure haven]

Hoenn CS coming?

[swift swan]

Probably, it's overdue

[late grove]

kalos cs so I can duo submas malva

[paper summit]

always fun to laugh at Entry x2 passives

[swift swan]

For marnie this week I was too lazy to get another status condition unit so I just gridded ghetsis with dragon breath HE1 🥱 quick reset if it doesn't proc

[swift swan]

Then I suppose as long as you paralyze marnie, you'll be fine with this team

[summer flare]

I managed to do Agatha first round

Used Candice (abomasnow), glacia and cbede

[weak sleet]

For the electric stage, it wants special moves right?

[summer flare]

Used both support syncs and punched middle to death, saving syncs for sides

[late grove]

yes

[mellow linden]

Welp, I guess that means you’ve got everything else for the rest

[pure haven]

Should've been

But I failed

I didn't know how healthy advantage worked so I fucked up

And I prolly had bad params

[late grove]

first time for everything

[pure haven]

But whatever, poison stall never fails

[pure haven]

Yea

[paper summit]

you say that but when a stage has sync cure, a boring AF strat is even worse

[swift swan]

Fortunately we don't have a lot of those

[pure haven]

I mean I don't mind as long as I win

[paper summit]

yeah, it's like one or two maybe? not entirely sure

[pure haven]

Also it's fun to watch them slowly kill themselves lol

[swift swan]

Any kind of win is valid!

[paper summit]

it was fun at first for me, then it got old, but thankfully the need to stall just goes away eventually

[swift swan]

At least stall is easier now with 2.5k params

Last time i stalled, it was for the CS battle factory event. It. Was not fun.

[pure haven]

Yea I only stall when I just give up or I'm tired and want to do it "quick"

[summer flare]

Alright, I think I might be on a good spot to beat it all, now

I managed to clear the first two stages of the special csmm without ghetsis, irida or hala

[grand steppe]

Thinking of going with this.

[late grove]

eusine

[swift swan]

Bruno

[pure haven]

37/100 teams

[summer flare]

Went round 1 Agatha using Candice, glacia and cbede

Went round 2 Koga using brycen, pryce and SS kris

[grand steppe]

I don't like scrolling, I just keep replacing the top 15 teams. 😛

[summer flare]

Is drake easier at round 3? Or should I save him for round 4?

Also, he should be the one to use Hala, right?

[grand steppe]

Drake is mostly physical. So Round 1 or 2 is better for him.

[summer flare]

I already did those rounds, so there was a bit of mismanagement

[grand steppe]

well, Round 4 is going to make him more lethal.

[summer flare]

So he's a round 3 pick

Given my situation

[grand steppe]

yeah, unless you want to tank x1.3 physical attacks

[hidden ore]

Gonna ask if there’s an order to avoid for Pasio

Did Drake on r1

[toxic cobalt]

That's the important part!

[hidden ore]

Gonna think of Agatha and Shauntal order

[grand steppe]

If you look at the pin, you can see which ones are more susceptible to status and do one of those opponents.

Shauntal can be frozen for longer, as an example.

[nocturne pawn]

should i poison stall marnie since i used ghetsis already

[mellow linden]

If you’re out of Ice types then it’s probably stall or off-type

[nocturne pawn]

argh i shouldve saved ss steven

i might reset at this point

[dusk swan]

When almost every recommended pair list from DeNA is just summer Steven and Candice maybe they should have picked a different type for the first pasio stadium

[paper summit]

I mean, that'd be a valid assessment if the battles completely nullified non super effective damage innately

[late grove]

DeNA making a good recommened pair list is tough luck

[north crown]

First? The first Pasio CS is grass.

[paper summit]

they know very well many units are pretty much wildcards so typing becomes a bit irrelevant

like, people sometimes get a bit too fixated in going for on type when at times it's just easier and quicker to off type the thing

this of course depends on your roster

[versed meteor]

There is something that just works about this team

[swift swan]

There sure is

[verbal karma]

finally tried it with the paramters you used

and no, I just can't do this

everyone simply takes too much damage way too fast

all while Pryce...simply doesn't do enough damage

[tribal agate]

what are you talking about

how can they take damage too fast and not do enough damage

the video is right there

[verbal karma]

yeah, the video is right there, and yet

[tribal agate]

Wulfric and Pryce are full health at the end

[verbal karma]

I mean, hell, sometimes, if I am especially unlucky, the EX support in my team dies to the very first attack

[tribal agate]

who is the EX support?

[verbal karma]

Sabrina

since I don't have Glacia EX'd

[tribal agate]

Sabrina is not tanky

you need a tanky crit buffer

[swift swan]

Sabrina is more of an offensive support. If you die to the first hit, it's just pure bad luck, nothing you can do about it

It's not like Glacia is tanky anyway

[tribal agate]

you kidding?

[manic kiln]

glacia is good under hail, but still tankier than sabrina

[tribal agate]

she has first aid 4, healthy buffer, synchro healing 1, endurance

she's way way better than Sabrina

but again that's besides the point

[verbal karma]

hmm...should I replace Sabrina with SS Blue then?

[tribal agate]

if your SS Blue is EX then that's already a better gamble, but SS Blue needs a MPR to max crit

[verbal karma]

actually, he doesn't

Pryce has Dire Hit already

[tribal agate]

poor Wulfric

[plush tangle]

i think i used dire hit twice with pryce

[tribal agate]

in any case, you have a new pin explaining how to properly share your roster (on video) which would immensely help

[plush tangle]

and i used physical damage reduction, wulfric's not doing damage

[tribal agate]

ah gotcha

i was wondering

[swift swan]

Not even sure what he's doing there other than an ice type filler and some lucky freezes anyway

[tribal agate]

me neither

[nocturne pawn]

wulfric not suck challenge literally impossible

[verbal karma]

...alright, with SS Blue replacing Sabrina, I think I will also replace the "3x Damage Against Strike Pairs" param with "3x Damage Against Tech Pairs" param instead...mainly because my team has no Tech pairs, which makes that param perfect

[plush tangle]

Wow ! Wulfric gaming !

[plush tangle]

freeze + flinch luck except i forgot to remove interference immunity so it's just freeze luck

[nocturne pawn]

it would be 1024 if that was with physical damage reduction

[swift swan]

At tanking, i get the point. Still after that healthy buffer she crumbles pretty easily for me because of her defensive stats

[tribal agate]

would it kill you to actually fill the tracker roster so we can build a proper team

[nocturne pawn]

her mega gets better stats

[manic kiln]

not def stats tho

[nocturne pawn]

never mind they fucking spec’d into spatk and speed

[manic kiln]

[nocturne pawn]

why on earth

[tribal agate]

frost breath dps

[nocturne pawn]

oh yeah totally

[swift swan]

Last word gaming

Wait, is last word physical

[tribal agate]

no for real tho Glacia got so much better with grid expansion

[nocturne pawn]

ngl im gonna admit morty’s last word has won me a stage a few times

[nocturne pawn]

yes

[tribal agate]

i believe Last Word is phy yes

source : Jasmine

[swift swan]

Nevermind then. Frost breath DPS!

[manic kiln]

at least she got iceshell under hail

[paper summit]

she has a nice EX palette, I'll give her that

[swift swan]

She can max crit now, I'll give her that!

[verbal karma]

augh

I still can't win 😦

[tribal agate]

i just used her and she hard carried Lusamine and BP Candice

[tribal agate]

.

[plush tangle]

[swift swan]

And what's the problem this time

[paper summit]

amazing

[verbal karma]

still the same one: Pryce simply doesn't deal enough damage fast enough

[swift swan]

Also Trin, I don't follow. Why are you trying to use Pryce and Wulfric again?

[tribal agate]

It's Mael's recommendation with the full video but that's why

i'm asking for tracker

so we can build something even off type if needed

[verbal karma]

hold on, am doing that right now

[plush tangle]

yeah that team is ridiculously weak lol

[tribal agate]

please check the video i linked too

so you properly filter it

i made sure to make it as consice as possible

[plush tangle]

we can't tell when you left click and when you right click 🤓

[manic kiln]

pryce dps is non-existent, bad moveset, multiplier hard to achieve, and pairing him with wulfric is even worse. i use him as a filler most of the time, or help someone with speed debuff

[tribal agate]

i trusted Mael to help but it was actually just a flex??

[rotund lagoon]

Source: BP Soph

[plush tangle]

It wasn't a flex

I literally got it first try

[tribal agate]

then why is Trin not

[swift swan]

Well Mael was also doing a full ice challenge, which isn't ideal. So yeah, it's better to try building another less meme-y team

[plush tangle]

non existent dps

[swift swan]

Is 8828 supposed to be impressive

[plush tangle]

it's not impressive

[swift swan]

Maybe i'm spoiled

[manic kiln]

show supports

[plush tangle]

but it's not non existent

that's the same run we keep talking about

supports are wulfric and glacia lol

[tribal agate]

if it's enough for the stage to die tbh

[plush tangle]

both wulfric and pryce at 4* btw

so it's not even like they're super invested

[dark osprey]

It's better to pair Pryce with hail or freeze weirdly

With BP Candice, it becomes an easy clear

[plush tangle]

can't use BP Candice on every stage

[manic kiln]

oh that 8k was the last sync, and that 4k was with freeze synergy which still hard to get when Trin hates rng. he's still bad tho because it's a full ice team we have to use him

[plush tangle]

That 4k wasn't with freeze synergy

[manic kiln]

was that the sides or the mid

[plush tangle]

https://tenor.com/view/we-do-a-little-trolling-misinformation-toji-no-miko-kaoru-mashiko-gif-24078541

mid, alone

[manic kiln]

no muliple targets then

[plush tangle]

well yeah they were already dead ??

[manic kiln]

also still thanks to freeze synergy sides are down faster

wouldn't recommend using him for someone still struggling tho

[plush tangle]

gonna quickly kill koga so i can do some tests on shauntal r2

[dark osprey]

He does less than BP Candice but still decent and can survive a special sync quite decently

Didn't crit on sync also unfortunately

[plush tangle]

But you don't want to use them together because you need candice for a different stage

[dark osprey]

But BP Candice alone is also difficult to pull off right?

[plush tangle]

No

[nocturne pawn]

blizzard has better bp than icy wind

[plush tangle]

I did that and all it needed was 1 freeze. You can just replace lorelei with a sleep unit and you have a guaranteed denial instead of banking on a 40% freeze

[nocturne pawn]

unless you somehow proc freeze synergy uh

16

[dark osprey]

Round 1 is good for BP Candice alone since she doesn't have to spend 1 extra turn setting up hail again

If Pryce is difficult to use alone, why not use him with BP Candice. I personally used Lusamine with her though

Or maybe can use Pryce alone on Agatha since she does that suicidal thing

And Pryce has got good special bulk

[tribal agate]

There i'm done with Ice CS
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1011234431291359302/1123302029205459065/Screenshot_20230627_192036.jpg

[plush tangle]

got a clear with torchic / ramos / pryce

no freeze, 1 tm mpr on torchic, surely that's not too rng for yall

[tribal agate]

tbf this isn't about making the run as budget as humanely possible
it's about making it as braindead and comfy as their roster allows

which is why rule number 1 of making that happen is share your full roster or otherwise keep trying

[swift swan]

Why no embed

[tribal agate]

i don't wanna flood chat

[swift swan]

How very considerate

[plush tangle]

tho if i can make it super budget surely they can try to do it with slightly better units by themselves

[tribal agate]

no because that would require them to know how to properly teambuild which they can't and is why they ask for help on a weekly basis for the last 5 months

[plush tangle]

[swift swan]

[plush tangle]

no offense but why do they keep playing if they didn't understand how the game works after 5 months of playing it

[tribal agate]

and i'm ok with that as long as you show incentive to wanna get help like providing footage, roster or trying what people tell you more than one time

[keen jasper]

When was the 1st special CS? What month?

March?

[paper summit]

April

[tribal agate]

April

dammit

[keen jasper]

Hmmmm, ok then

[grand steppe]

April 11th.

[verbal karma]

@tribal agate alright, I know how the filter works, I think, but...what exactly do you guys want me to filter out for you?

should I filter by Ice-types first?

or by something else?

[plush tangle]

just show everything

i posted this twice

😦

[mellow linden]

Just the entire roster. Depending on your Ice types it may be better to off-type 1 or more stages

[grand steppe]

we just want you to sort your sync pairs by type, then by role, so it's easier to digest

[keen jasper]

Hmmmm, I think I'll wait for another special CS to see what's the gap between the special CS

[grand steppe]

wdym, you're not going to attempt this one?

[plush tangle]

i want one every week

[plush tangle]

i think they just want to know what's the timespan between 2 special cs

[grand steppe]

more rewards

[verbal karma]

well, here's the entire roster, sorted and separated by their roles

[plush tangle]

and since so far we only got 2... it doesn't say much about the time span

[verbal karma]

if you guys want me to filter them by specific types, just ping me

[keen jasper]

It's more like 3 since I'm waiting for the next one

[tribal agate]

Trin...

[mellow linden]

It was initially requested to do it by type as well as role

[keen jasper]

From April 11 to June 27, like a 2.5 month gap (assuming that it is for the next one)

[plush tangle]

Click on visibility -> have

so we don't see the units you don't have

[verbal karma]

...I forgot about the visibility part!

shoot!

[grand steppe]

and sort by type first, then role 2nd

[tribal agate]

Stop

This is enough for one day

Trin has been suspdended from help areas until further notice

[plush tangle]

oop

[tribal agate]

We have a pin, we have two commands, i have so much patience for people who refuse to adapt
and this happened thrice today
let it be lesson for people who want to waste our time

[grim bison]

Is Hoenn or Sinnoh CS harder

[keen jasper]

Depends

[silent plinth]

Most of the time, Hoenn

[nocturne pawn]

id say sinnoh

[keen jasper]

Steel-weak Glacia is a pain because of SE x2

And majority of steel damage dealers are physical

[silent plinth]

Cause Hoenn has a lot of stages that require use of Zone or only Physical/Special

And most of the stages are based off the newer, more powerful units

[keen jasper]

Rock-weak Drake has Slomo

[swift swan]

Sinnoh is more restrictive due to x2 Entries. Hoenn has more firepower and bulk. So, depends

[nocturne pawn]

ground weak aaron was painful i fucking despise bug lucian and fairy cynthia

[keen jasper]

Bug-weak Sidney has dark zone

[rotund lagoon]

Honestly, both Hoenn and Sinnoh have their difficulties for different players.

[nocturne pawn]

doesnt sinnoh also force weather changes more often

[grim bison]

When sinnoh CS first came out, I remember everyone hating electric weak Aaron

[rotund lagoon]

Ok that’s an ew

[keen jasper]

Made for SC subway bros

[nocturne pawn]

does it have wise entry x2

[swift swan]

Mostly just bertha

[keen jasper]

No entry

[swift swan]

Nah

[nocturne pawn]

well theres flint and aaron too

aaron you can get away with not changing the weather but clear power up 5 is ehh i dont like it

[swift swan]

I notice hoenn, on top of weather, also starts playing with zones

[keen jasper]

I think steel-weak Glacia can still be brute-forced with physical steel

[formal vigil]

It can

[grim bison]

All you need is willpower and patience

[nocturne pawn]

kimono grimsley probably

[formal vigil]

Saw a Gloria palmarnine clear

[nocturne pawn]

flinches and metal burst

[swift swan]

All you need is a darn good damage dealer

[paper summit]

you can brute force all the Entry x2 stages

[keen jasper]

I remember grass-weak Wallace hitting really hard

[formal vigil]

I just remember it dieing

[nocturne pawn]

if you don’t change the weather yeah hes pretty painful

[formal vigil]

[swift swan]

I remember we have 2 grass-weak Hoenn champion stages and I forgot which is which

[grim bison]

Can't wait for Hoenn CS to come back

[paper summit]

also, presync is not the only strat there is

[keen jasper]

And grass-weak Wallace has WE x2

[formal vigil]

Just use sserika easy

[nocturne pawn]

cant wait to just get blown up

[grim bison]

Last time it was out was when I was still struggling on 800 points

[nocturne pawn]

also do you think ghost weak wikstrom will be legitimately challenging on 2.5k

[keen jasper]

Fairy-weak Sidney with lesser attack debuff mitigation, prolly made for Mina

NVM, it's Sp. Atk. debuff mitigation

So made for S! Marnie

[rotund lagoon]

Hopefully you’re in a better spot when it comes again

[nocturne pawn]

lol

i feel accomplished

ive been doing mm max for like half a year now

[grim bison]

I offtyped 2.5k sinnoh CS last week

[keen jasper]

I want to revisit fire-weak Kukui to see my SS May hitting 682k on her sync

[nocturne pawn]

oh yeah

i didnt do one week of alola

because fire weak kukui refused to die

for some weird reason

[swift swan]

I forgot about him oh gosh

[sick inlet]

Have we had Hoenn ever since the 2.5k change?

[swift swan]

I need Kalos CS to come back soon, they'll be so fun to 2.5k

[nocturne pawn]

no

[swift swan]

No

[keen jasper]

Not yet

[sick inlet]

Spicy

[swift swan]

Even 2.5k sinnoh is very new

[nocturne pawn]

i do not want to be retraumatized by fighting weak wikstrom

💀

that shit was so fucking annoying when i had to use hilbert

[grim bison]

Best we have is drake in the pasio cs

[sick inlet]

Yeah I am having some stages feel rougher now for my 2v3

[sick inlet]

Good point

Didn't even real5

[swift swan]

Zone on entry right? I can imagine it's hell

[sick inlet]

Realize*

[nocturne pawn]

steel zone 30% more damage while zone is up and has thunderbolt

aka hilbert fucking dies

[formal vigil]

[nocturne pawn]

the only saving grace is that steel zone doesnt last until sync

[swift swan]

He can take one hit! with endurance

[formal vigil]

You could just defog it

[swift swan]

But it runs off before sync which ruins your quadqueue, doesn't it

[nocturne pawn]

yeah and then what

[grand steppe]

Pretty nice f2p denial clear.

[nocturne pawn]

yeah…

[formal vigil]

Or just stall steel zone turns with flinch or sleep

[nocturne pawn]

so it just sucks regardless

[grim bison]

After you use it, then what

[keen jasper]

Or have SSA Cynthia/C. Hop

[nocturne pawn]

well 40% flinch isnt exactly reliable

[grim bison]

Or any other zone setter that isn't pal marnie

[swift swan]

Just rerun them dena, easy!

[keen jasper]

Imagine rerunning anniversary units

[formal vigil]

Bruh why so many pings

[keen jasper]

I wouldn't

[sick inlet]

Didn't AnniN rerun before?

[formal vigil]

Yes

[sick inlet]

Or am i mixing stuff up

[formal vigil]

Also Steven and lilie

[keen jasper]

The 2nd anni trio rerun before 2023 NY

[formal vigil]

Anni raihan and may too

No skyla

[sick inlet]

Well I see everyone rerunning apart from Ash? Idk

[nocturne pawn]

anni skyla found dead in ditch

[sick inlet]

Anni Skyla is so niche

[nocturne pawn]

shes not

[formal vigil]

No

[sick inlet]

Like certain uses and that's it

[formal vigil]

Flying zone strong nuker

Also flinch

[nocturne pawn]

her team utility is somewhat low

but her actual utility is very good

[sick inlet]

Flinch is her best usage don't @ me

[nocturne pawn]

has staggering 2 so 30% unpenalized flinch

and she can debuff offenses with 3/5 disarm

and has a very strong nuke

[sick inlet]

1/5 poor

Me*

[sand karma]

I'm so tired of Blue I'd take her any day

[nocturne pawn]

use darach

[sand karma]

Right!! I've actually used him before
Why did I forget about him

[sick inlet]

Darach is really amazing

[mellow linden]

How is A. Skyla niche

[formal vigil]

Actually pretty good nuker recoil is annoying though

[sand karma]

I like his nuke but brave bird too much recoil

[keen jasper]

I just wished DeNA could give more energy on grids

[nocturne pawn]

she isnt

[formal vigil]

But unlike most pairs darach recoil isn't too bad

[sick inlet]

1/5 user
That's all I see

[keen jasper]

Because most grid setup these days are literally only lacking 1 energy for full synergy

[sick inlet]

My scope haven't reached the brilliance of 3/5

[mellow linden]

Flying Zone, teamwide Speed buffs, AoE flinch/confusion, one of the best (probably the best) Flying Sync nukes in the game

[nocturne pawn]

im pretty sure she is the strongest flying nuke

[mellow linden]

She definitely likes 3/5 a ton, but even 1/5 she has Flying Zone at worst

[nocturne pawn]

also an amazing outfit

[keen jasper]

Can you guys please stop talking about Hilbert?

[sick inlet]

Lmao

[nocturne pawn]

cope

[formal vigil]

Rip

[formal vigil]

[keen jasper]

I have 3/5 Hugh, but 0/5 Hilbert

[sick inlet]

I only got him like recently

Hopefully 3/5 sometime soon

[nocturne pawn]

💀

[sick inlet]

🥲🥲🥲

[swift swan]

1/5 phoebe gang woohoo

[formal vigil]

My sabrina and krimsley at 2/5 forever

[sick inlet]

That kalos rival girl getting added to tickets this year you guys think?

One with chesnaught

[nocturne pawn]

she should

shauna’s great

[sick inlet]

Ye that one

[nocturne pawn]

has the same buffing as aaron and 3/5 sonia

but can actually max crit with sync burst

and has healing too

[keen jasper]

And Hop too

[nocturne pawn]

who

[sick inlet]

isnt hop f2p

[nocturne pawn]

thats the joke

[keen jasper]

I'm just stating similar units

[shrewd oyster]

Anyone have any success with Ice Drake round 4? I did not plan ahead very well and I'm probably thinking I'm going to have to reset this

[grand steppe]

round 4 increases his physical damage by 30%

and he's all physical

[zealous karma]

Isn’t it 2AM for you smh

[grand steppe]

you'll have to counter with your own strong physical team

[grand steppe]

are you using someone like Hala? you might be able to ohko with a strong sync.

[shrewd oyster]

I already used Kyurem N so I'll have to see what I can use
I tried Silver but he was doing no damage whatsoever
Maybe Bea would be good? I have way more special EXs than Physical lol
Unfortunately I also already used Hala

[grand steppe]

are you countering the sandstorm

[shrewd oyster]

Yes
I tried Cynthia with keeping the Sandstorm up and that went about as well as you'd expect

I tried Silver / Morty Ho Oh / Anni N (for debuffs mostly)
I feel like N is the weakest link there but I triple checked and even with Special Damage Down he was doing more damage than Silver was after 2 syncs??

[grand steppe]

Silver Sneasel?

What move level is it?

[shrewd oyster]

Oh sorry, Ho Oh silver also
I forgot Silver just got a new alt

[grand steppe]

Well Drake also has Wise Entry x2, so Overheat won't do much.

You need Physical and to counter the weather.

Anni N can't ignore Wise Entry x2 with piercing blows.

You can maybe run a Silver Sacred Fire build, but you might want to run a stronger striker.
