simple frost
just be warned that he gets gradual healing at lower HP
if you let him heal, that's 20k+ HP per tick which is nasty :x
hybrid abyss
holdup... can I jsut choose to nuke the entier HP bar?
Who would be the ideal teammate for Elaine + SSTRed on Darach? idk much about the UBs tbh 
FYI I got tech/field, x2 normal and x1 elec power boost
I'm very tempted to use all my Rolexes on A9's Tech/Support, tho idk if I'll ned one of them for A10
Can Darach be cheesed?
@simple frost asdfhasjdhgkjs plozzz

what to do
simple frost
You need a rebuff
simple frost
PFFT
hybrid abyss
or should I use Adaman intead
hybrid abyss
cuz NCLeaf could get that juicy A9 x2 prize boost 
simple frost
just be careful of the sides and darach spamming fire moves.
hybrid abyss
FUCK DO THEY HAVE SUN BOOST PASSIVES? NO
simple frost
Nah, its sun.
hybrid abyss
FRICK FUCK WHAT THE HELL
simple frost
Try your team first o.o;
hybrid abyss
idk if I should use NCLeaf on A9 for prize boost, or save for A10 for rebuff shenanigans
The only other options are 3/5 Adaman EX and Gordie EX, which idk if it's enough considering ti's a 3v3
hybrid abyss
A9 is Tech/Support; A10 is Tech/Field 
or do I somehow carry both of them through 9-10
simple frost
NC Leaf has Support EX Role?
west abyss
You need a rebuff
Darach doesn't need a rebuff 
simple frost
he doesnt?
hybrid abyss
I THOUGHT I COULD TRUST UUUUUU
simple frost
i thought he did hmm
west abyss
Well I mean you also could've looked for the information but yes, no rebuff/status change
simple frost
but you need a field effect active otherwise you wont be able to damage him.
hybrid abyss
That's honestly not aproblem
I'm currently thinking of carrying both Kanto MFs from A9-10 since I got decision paralysis 
or do I carry 1/5 Elaine ROlex there as well?
that's kinda risky tho
or I could body block with NCSerena? or will her debuffs be useful for Darach? idk man
simple frost
you'll need a Normal-type in there. Like what'shisface, Gladion .-.;
hybrid abyss
There's my gameplan so far: bodyblock A9 with NCSerena and pray SSTRed and NCLeaf can qipe without buffs xDDD
simple frost
that sounds like a battle plan.
simple frost
TM MPR for SST Red? what's your Area 9 fight though?
elfin tendon
epic valerie tanking
hybrid abyss
fuck I'm gonan have to carry Elaine
elfin tendon
Thinking about it should've used EX roxie
hybrid abyss
omg NO TMS USED WOWIE
simple frost
Elaine just trivializes
hybrid abyss
even 1/5?
simple frost
most CS stages since they dont have resilience tbh.
the only thing to worry about thingss that have Resilience
or have some sort of damage reduction
as long as you're lucky with your flinches i mean ;3
hybrid abyss
omg that felt way too ez for a UB
ig a couple of new Knato limiteds, an easier UB, x2 normal and x1 elec power boost makes this manageable
simple frost
yep
simple frost
omg that felt way too ez for a UB
The stat boosts help a lot.
hybrid abyss
normal or elec? or just BR boosts in general?
simple frost
br boosts in general

Is it better to stack 2 100 point bonuses or 2 of different theme
rustic dagger
if ur certain you can do the 2 dif themes on every stage you can do it

Was thinking of it cause my A10 is tech support
So was thinking SST red and nc rosa with someone else

I have a Dilemma. My first stage is Tech+Support. Of which I have 4 pairs matching that. Problem is, I want to avoid using 3 incase I get a lucky stage. With that being said, of all the next option, 1 route leads to absolutely 0 tech + Support stage
So that's a 33% chance that I don't get what I want. What should I do

what about Upgrades?
anything you can use?

+300% or +100% on top of your stats?

300% total

did you try palmer with 200% stats?

yes
simple frost
how close were you?
dense latch
wont even do half bar 2nd sync
simple frost
Got NC Serena?
dense latch
let me see if there is nc leaf clear
simple frost
for the UB?
tbh you need people that Sync Countdown for that, and NC Leaf will need to nuke twice.
you can probaably run Chase + NC Leaf just to give you Kanto Analysis
and get chase to sync countdown hard.
dense latch
gotta dump 3 candies to do this clear 😂 maybe not
simple frost
3 candies for who? D:?!
dense latch
nc serena and nc calem

i'd probably just do Hard aat this point if you're considering using candies :x

You don't have to follow the Super effective stage right?
simple frost
it helps a lot, but you dont have to.
crisp token
Following the role bonus and theme boost is more important
crisp token
As little as you can get away with
If you have a developed roster getting to floor 10 with no purchases is usually fine
Depends on the boost ofc
Of course the actual floor 10 is a different matter
But assuming standard 1.5 boost each, the difference between VH10 and H10 is only 250pts
So buy less than that ideally
And you can also opt for the one-use items instead on the last floor which can be OP

I usually buy nothing until A10, unless the starting boost is very bad

Still pretty workable. except for area 4 and area 8
you've got riley + event victor, just needs a grass there

depends on who you get, Palmer or Argenta ugh.

What’s the best strategy for battle rally? Cause what I’ve been doing is have one team throughout and just go straight down the middle path without changing teams, should I try switching teams around or stick to this method

You should always change your team to fit into many matching roles as possible, and at the same time, countering the stage gimmicks

Technically
It's better to save them for later in case you get a lucky area
In practice you wont get a lucky area so I would just use them asap to have more freedom to adapt later

Yeah Paulo is just bad I’ve gotta abandon second support/sprint 2x points. Which really sucks because I missed out on a 2x earlier that I didn’t notice

hey thats that i did
astral path
Ok I’m actually going to have to buy an item. Which should I get here. I don’t plan on using other rock types since after this fight my teams are basically already made for 2x points. Victor has some attack gimmick so maybe I’ll buy the lower all stats by 6 item to get past this stage and move on
hybrid abyss
So you have the role lineup yet?
astral path
Yeah no this sucks. It’s why I’m thinking just the stat debuffer so I can get through the stage and get back to my teams which have some meat on em.
I was gonna use Gladion/Magerna and I still have Riley but he’s definatly not winning here. If I had a role cake I’d put it into Silver but I used all my coins and tickets to get everyone role cakes for Psychic high score event since I went for top 100 (which I’m at 55 or something rn)

At 3/5 he's useful
Cuz his bmove unlocks after sync move
At lower move levels, he's a one trick pony
jaunty sun
1/5 Gladion is one-off only
Incase you have candies, highly suggest candying him
glass patrol
You would need literally everything or enough boosts that it’s an irrelevant point
So it’s still irrelevant
His team for Palmer is too specific to be a notable save for Palmer
Just use it for boost
prisma gyro
Yeah, at 1/5 he's not gonna be useful for more than 1 battle anyway, so either use him for 1 area now or use him for 1 area later

Is NCSilver better in this regard?
gentle maple
Rough one this week
viral loom
So it's this one. From my 3 Strike/supp rolex (NCBlue, Penny and SSSerena), I'm definitely saving NCBlue for round 10, but should I save some of the other 2 as well, or burn them on round 3 for bonus?
I'm debating saving SSSerena and burning Penny on round 3
gentle maple
I would just burn both tbh
hybrid abyss
That's kinda tough to answer, since UBs are stupidly restrictive.
viral loom
I would just burn both tbh
SSSerena could be useful for restrain tho
gentle maple
Which UB needs it
hybrid abyss
I think the consensus is to burn Penny tho, yeh?
viral loom
I think the consensus is to burn Penny tho, yeh?
Most likely yeah
viral loom
Which UB needs it
Argenta
gentle maple
I'm pretty sure NC blue can handle the gimmicks for argenta other than weather
But your call
viral loom
Wasn't argenta immune to Confusion/Flinch?
west abyss
Flinch yes, confusion no
hybrid abyss
does rebuff count to negate acute senses
gentle maple
does rebuff count to negate acute senses
That's what I meant
Just have to time the rebuff properly
Hell u might even not get argenta who knows
hybrid abyss
oh nvm u have to time the rebuff 💀
aw hell nah I don't wan tto deal with that on an UB
viral loom
Time it?
Just not sync with NCBlue till rebuff heals, right?
Guess I'm burning her since there's no Dragon weak UB anyways
karmic wraith
poison upgrade this week
not the best but i can make it work
hybrid abyss

dont' take my word for it; idk shit about any UBs

viral loom
Oh yeah, she would be neat for Lucy with Status Inmunity
sudden hull
Argenta clears rebuff at 50%
viral loom
Hmm
gentle maple
poison upgrade this week
not the best but i can make it work
That's still something to work with compared to my e4 and normal boost
viral loom
Ah screw it, I'm burning her, I'm more okay with having to slap Antitoxin on everyone now that we got the LS swaps
gentle maple
I wouldn't have to default to hard if it argenta or thorton, anything that's not palmer or Anabel since I had NC leaf still but game outplayed me
gentle maple
Ah screw it, I'm burning her, I'm more okay with having to slap Antitoxin on eve...
At worse u default to hard, NC blue will definitely carry
Even palmer at hard
viral loom
At worse u default to hard, NC blue will definitely carry
The only two times I lowered to hard I kinda felt like literally any comp can take those
gentle maple
This week is my 2nd time defaulting to hard
viral loom
They hit like wet noodles
hybrid abyss
Even palmer at hard <:WEEZing:732044368554229892>
I mean... ig you got Wally and Bea so
gentle maple
First was thanks to palmer
Second was game throwing me Anabel after I greeded my NC Serena away early
gentle maple
I mean... ig you got Wally and Bea so <:LanceShrug:659516543301845012>
Palmer at hard is a more tamed beast compared to VH
Though it's still scary since palmer

Man I hate Argenta r10 and no tech ;C

2nd time i’ve gotten a silly striker heavy roll
stage 1 was strike/tech my phone screen is small sry

If u have NC blue that's not so bad

Why is clear advantage still active when they're clearly paralyzed?

"Clear" refers to WTZ, not status

mayb it will come back

You're thinking Healthy Advantage, maybe

oh no this stage 💀

the sides have healthy advantage iirc
that is the worst stage in the whole rally
its the battle challenge for sst red and ssa cynthia
prisma gyro
What in tarnation
karmic wraith
yeah evil ass stage
prisma gyro
The most broken sync pairs come with the most evil stage
hybrid abyss
That's what we like to see!
prisma gyro
Are areas 1-9 also buffed to match your initial 100% boost?
sudden hull
oh no this stage 💀
its 3rd anni battle challenge
karmic wraith
yea ik
sudden hull
yeah evil ass stage
nah id say the evilest one is halloween 2023
karmic wraith
that was my first stage LOL
viral loom
Are areas 1-9 also buffed to match your initial 100% boost?
Gradually
sudden hull
yeah
with bad bonuses its miserable
if you have haze its ok but without it sucks mega ass
viral loom
Something like that, tho I'm not sure about the percentages
prisma gyro
stage 9 and 10 are doubled stats
Both of them? Why stage 9 as well?
hybrid abyss
last regular stage...?
sudden hull
cuz the game said so
languid scaffold
So sorry if this is a dumb question but the 2 roles that appear for each stage if ya match one or both are those for extra points or just more strength.
sudden hull
so i assume it starts as 1.2x on stage 2 then increments by 10%
sudden hull
So sorry if this is a dumb question but the 2 roles that appear for each stage i...
only for extra points
languid scaffold
Ok
sudden hull
the stat boost is based on theme skills
prisma gyro
so i assume it starts as 1.2x on stage 2 then increments by 10%
Wouldn't that mean 1.9× on stage 9?
craggy helm
How many weeks has the BR been going on for? I wanna label my charts correctly
viral loom
... Should I burn NCBlue as well here and improvise on round 10?
west abyss
maximise your points from a lucky stage yea
sudden hull
no penny?
sudden hull
oh
prisma gyro
... Should I burn NCBlue as well here and improvise on round 10?
Dang that's lucky. Support strike is one of the more common combos too
hybrid abyss
@viral loom I personally wouldn't cuz NCBlue is broken, and he can provide for anyone no matter who you use in A10.

Too late, had to see the beeg numbers for the 1st time 
hybrid abyss
... welp gl
prisma gyro
I think maximizing points on a lucky stage will give more points than the points you lose by dropping to hard on area 10
viral loom
Yeah, that was my thought despite hating having to go hard
Big number activates neuron
hybrid abyss
So it's this one. From my 3 Strike/supp rolex (NCBlue, Penny and SSSerena), I'm ...
bm
damn.. throwing everything early on really does seem to be the strat huh...
sudden hull
i tend to not
mostly out of fear
even though ny wallace still has max countdown 2 and sun
viral loom
I just plan to max points as always, tho depending on the role config you're dealt with
It's likely having to burn some good ass units early on
sudden hull
yeah i dont like doing that
hybrid abyss
sprint/field A10 be like:
sudden hull
id rather save the win buttons for a10 even if i dont get max points
viral loom
sprint/field A10 be like:
Honestly sometimes this is a blessing
Since I don't have to worry about trying to max that abomination
And can adapt a more comfortable team for the UB that follows the buff

Imo you did great, you get way more on lucky area than deciding to go very hard instead of hard
In area 10
hybrid abyss
how the fuck did you manage that!??!

im not masochistic enough to run no boosts

An actual good reason for not cake AnniLillie

I don't want to have that as a worry

tbh I almost regret candying AnniLillie

She's like my 7th priority to cake

Only before Iono

Oh mb that's what I meant, not candying

Do I keep Geeta and SSTRed for a10 options?

Round 10. My opponent is Darach. Role bonuses are Sprint and Tech. Already used Neo Calem and SSCyrus... Maybe I can make it work with Masked Royal or Sidney in Cynthia's slot?

Well this was awful.
viral loom
Well this was awful.
SSTRed gaming?
heavy fjord
Only 1/5 so had to save him for round 10
No max conductivity sucks for trying to use him consistently in Rally
Anyway my only boost was Unova, my stage 9 was an evasion based battle challenge that I had no boosted character to use for points, and the stages as a whole were near entirely recent Battle Challenges and recent CS stages
It was bad
Hopefully I'll never see this lineup again

You should always go all in on a lucky stage, you'll overall net more points even if you have to downgrade to hard on Area 10 because you used an ideal unit earlier.
hybrid abyss
You should always go all in on a lucky stage, you'll overall net more points eve...
Does this apply to regular stages? I honestly see most stages as throwaways due to how easy they are (or at least the first 5)
west abyss
Nah for regular stages I usually try & save some strong contenders for Area 10 if possible
But it's tricky cos it sucks if you didn't use a 2x bonus unit early & don't end up using them A10
hybrid abyss
yeah that's the hiccup I'm facing atm
also sucks that both NCSerena and NCLeaf are the main counters to their respective UBs
west abyss
Yea they're just amazing pairs for UBs in general so I'm always weary of using them too early
plush anchor
who was your Hard fight though?
Like 12 hours too late teehee
I think it was Anabel
In all cases, I always prioritize everything I can do to clear VH over doing H.

I'm starting to be more lenient with that too
And figure it out when A10 screws me over

I mean unless it's Palmer/Annabel
Usually easy
Like all I need to do is extra Theme bonus or something
But Palmer and Annabel I have to prepare beforehand

Good theme = get even without discount!

2x Rival Upgrade?

Sprint/Supp, that's why those 2 are x2.0
But it was actually incredibly easy, I don't know what I was even afraid of
urban ledge
I messed up and used up Nc Leaf before this whoops
Had to settle for Lucy lol
Also did y’all know HRoxanne had Natural Remedy?
I didn’t haha
But all in all considering the BS route I was given that’s a good score without a lucky area

he changes his defenses

as far as supports go, NC Blue perphaps?
Already used on Lucky stage

Victini should obliterate Thorton lol
viral loom
That was my initial thought
simple frost
oh crap 5/5 lmao
viral loom
But his survivality is kinda compromised without Atk debuffs
simple frost
i'd run double strikes
viral loom
Also have to rely on sundering+burn rng to keep Victini alive
viral loom
I'm kinda trying to avoid shop for now since I already have x2 buffs, at least till I get tired
I feel like it should definitely be doable
simple frost
i'd run a 2nd nuker tbh.
let me check thorton's stuff
Ah
i see the problem now
You didnt have a rebuff.
their base DEF and SP.DEF is x3 if they dont have a rebuff
if you've got Zerena, should work.
viral loom
their base DEF and SP.DEF is x3 if they dont have a rebuff
It should work with confusion rng maybe?
Zerena was also used on lucky stage
simple frost
couldd work, but they've got resilience
viral loom
Yeah, friend care is a pain 
Damage is way too slow for Victini to survive till the defense switch
And all my Strike/supp units with rebuff are already used
simple frost
eh, time to play Hard then 😦

NC leaf used already too?

Don't have her

But before lowering to Hard I would just buy the Ultra Jelly or the Damage guard cake, I feel like that would be enough oomph to take the W

also, if you really need rebuff, Selene can help with that.
Less Confusion rolls, another damage dealer should work.

he needs rival
its his initial boost
just confusion roll is enough
they do clear it and have resilience though so might take a bit longer to be able to inflict them again
viral loom

Tried SSBlue, Selene and SSHilda, but not worth

without the ultra jelly?

For Ultra Jelly probably, but I'm trying to avoid having to buy first
