Battle Rally

[leaden wraith]

Rival and Sinnoh cover less units than aforementioned themes so consider wisely

[hybrid abyss]

oooo… rebuff power… do I take?

[leaden wraith]

it's a decent one, for A10 at least

[hybrid abyss]

I am most likely running fire bird on A10, however it’s redundant on almost every other area

No sale.. just my luck 🤣

[leaden wraith]

how far are you into this BR run?

[hybrid abyss]

A6

I was about to play, but double checking shop made me hesitate

Dragon Zone is redundant, and Normal Moves…

If I don’t get a response in 5 minutes, Ima assume disregarding it is fine

[simple frost]

if its not going to help you in your A10 fight, skip.

rebuff is nice though.

[hybrid abyss]

But it is, tho it’s not guaranteed.

TLDR most likely

[simple frost]

what's the uh

Role Bonus for A10?

[hybrid abyss]

I’m definitely running Articuno cuz of strike/tech

[simple frost]

then easy enough, Rebuff Bonus 🙂

[hybrid abyss]

Perhaps maybe the full 4Anni Kantrio

Now that I think about it

So take?

I assume so based on your reaction, yes?

[simple frost]

its 50 cost, but it gives you a really good damage boost.

[hybrid abyss]

That’s why I am asking about this and not elec upgrade

[simple frost]

elec upgrade?

hmm

whata's your current Shop/Upgrades?

and current rally points

[hybrid abyss]

For the worthwhile upgrades, just those two really

[leaden wraith]

what is your current boost

[hybrid abyss]

Elec

Why else would I mention it?

[leaden wraith]

then go for rebuff then

just asking because you didn't mention Elec as your starting boost earlier

[hybrid abyss]

Ah mb

[half bone]

Support sprint, dunno what to try for offense.

[leaden wraith]

you have Riley, NC Silver, Paulo or Rei as dmg dealer

pair one of them with 2 supports

[half bone]

I don't wanna burn sprint pairs this soon.

[leaden wraith]

how many Sprint rounds later in your seed?

[half bone]

Also, NC Silver isn't actually with hsi EX Role, it just shows him as that since there's no toggle to say if htey have them or not.

This is my seed.

[leaden wraith]

is Paulo caked? he has double boost here

[simple frost]

do watch out, Rillaboon has Healthy Advantage 8 ;o

[half bone]

I don't think Paulo is caked. Also, that would be next stage.

Oh, wait, derp.

[leaden wraith]

if you do have a spare cake, spend it on him

it's a worthwhile investment

otherwise use one Sprint here, no need to save

[half bone]

I can get a cake if I spend vouchers (cake vouchers and daily vouchers).

[leaden wraith]

do you have anyone you want to cake atm?

[half bone]

Not really?

These are my options.

[leaden wraith]

then consider caking Paulo

[sweet mango]

Nc silver 1v1 vs argenta. Both at low hp

[hybrid abyss]

What’s this rebuff shenanigans I’m seeing?

[leaden wraith]

it's NC Rosa's BC

what is Gyarados doing there

[hybrid abyss]

That was from last match

There any actual roadblocks or can I just go unga bunga?

Cuz that rebuff recommendation is scaring me

[leaden wraith]

you can read the info in pastebin links in the pins

[hybrid abyss]

I only got a phone

I’ll check it ig

[sweet mango]

Sprint cake for ss may today, field cake for anni may next week. May is eating good.

I have may at level 3577 in lodge and 3777 max level

[leaden wraith]

both May alts covering rare combos is really nice

[polar fable]

I caked my anni may and if I can get ss may, ill cake her

[leaden wraith]

side note she is my first lvl 1000 in TL

[hybrid abyss]

I can’t use the find command 😭

[leaden wraith]

skill issue

[polar fable]

I think im at like, 8-9 sprint coins so I need to use tickets

[polar fable]

In the pastebin?

[leaden wraith]

just lower rebuff and has speed buffs

also special Emboar is so cursed that's why you got beaten by Hilbert smh

[half bone]

you didn't tell me this match woudl be a FREAKING NIGHTMARE.

I swear to god, I hate this battle.

[leaden wraith]

do you bring someone to inflict status?

[half bone]

Yes, Janine.

[leaden wraith]

BP right? because OG Janine is tech

[half bone]

Yes.

[leaden wraith]

who is the third pair? beside her and Paulo

[half bone]

Hop

[leaden wraith]

iirc the stage also demands stat debuffs

[half bone]

I have to do 2 Quad queue checks to have a chance.

[simple frost]

nasty 😭

[leaden wraith]

try Lodge Gladion instead

instead of Janine

[half bone]

I used him already.

[leaden wraith]

https://tenor.com/view/cry-gif-23674110

can try with Aaron for brute forcing and flinching

[half bone]

Oh my god, why does stone edge keep missing?

[leaden wraith]

wait no status

[half bone]

It's the sync move that's the issue.

It all but wipes everyone.

that and paralysis eating turns.

if Brutal Swing comes out and hits pralyze, I'm dead.

[leaden wraith]

let's try with hard hitters like Rei

how about pairs with Support EXR?

it's still ideal to keep Paulo

[half bone]

Okay, FINALLY done.

[leaden wraith]

[half bone]

also, still no good alternatives.

[urban ledge]

Still have less than 3 hours to finish the rest of Rally

Or are you fully done?

[half bone]

No, on 4 now.

Any strike pokemon that can work as tanks?

Just used Hilda.

I mean, I decided to just use Hilda.

Well, I found Alola for a boost.

Think that works as an alternative? Since I have SS Gladion for Sprint?

[simple frost]

that can work.

how good is your Alola Roster?

[simple frost]

VS the rest of your role bonus

[half bone]

compared to

[simple frost]

is SS Lusamine caked?

[half bone]

Yep.

guessing definitely worth it?

[leaden wraith]

if you want to use him for Field Sprint, sure

but the whole region is not a good boost

[half bone]

I mean, steel has NOTHING for sprint/field.

I need an alternative one.

[leaden wraith]

wait i misremembered your A10 roles, so the boost is not that bad

[simple frost]

which area are you on now?

[half bone]

5

[half bone]

yeah, I can use one of the tapus for hte final area.

[simple frost]

Alola gaming then~

[half bone]

...I also just realized, I could asve SS LuSSa to the end too as an option.

...Actually, I can use SS Gladion until 7.

[simple frost]

For A6? Points is nice.

that means you can use the bulus up there

[half bone]

I could h vae been using him from the start, actually.

[simple frost]

i'm assuming you've got SST Red or something for A10

[leaden wraith]

save him for A7

he doesn't have TM MPR

and relies too much on teammates for offensive buffs

[half bone]

He actually does.

[leaden wraith]

wait i have never gridded mine yet

if you are fine with RNG fest, use him now

[simple frost]

30% chance keke

gl~

[half bone]

I did it before.

Okay, I need something different, I'm not hitting hard enough to clear before sync.

Current opponent.

Maybe I could just use Redchu? I'm worried on if I might need him later though.

[simple frost]

sshow your Tech Sync Pairs that have UB kills?

Ground Weak? wut the heck

[half bone]

Nothing on-type.

Tech/Sprint.

[simple frost]

show your tech sync pairs i suppoe

[simple frost]

dang -1 ACC hmm

[leaden wraith]

SS Lyra should make this a cakewalk

[half bone]

Anythign for a good tank?

Lodge Steven... really doesn't last long at all.

[leaden wraith]

why would you care about tank when using SS Lyra

[simple frost]

yeah, you basically run SS Lyra to stun all of them.

You can basically run 2 other techs in there.

[half bone]

I still need to take a few hits.

[simple frost]

Stun them all 🙂

they dont havae Resilience or immunity to Flinch

so you can Flinch Stall them

[quiet tiger]

I am tired...

[leaden wraith]

just provide Lyra gauge, and she should focus on flinching

occasionally summon terrain to boost dmg if you know after flinching the target will use a item move

[half bone]

who works for boosting gauge?

[simple frost]

Riley if you still have him.

and a Tech Alola or steel-type or both.

[half bone]

Royal, maybe?

[simple frost]

can work

[leaden wraith]

a dmg dealer + Royal tanking + Lyra

[half bone]

Huh. A lucky area.

Haven't seen those in a long time.

Aaaand now it's offering Sinnoh Upgrade.

[leaden wraith]

you already bought Alola right? if yes, just ignore Sinnoh

[hybrid abyss]

do u even have any good sinnoh units?

[half bone]

Yep.

Just annoyed since that would have worked really well.

[leaden wraith]

if you are fine with spending 100, sure

[half bone]

I'll just stick with Alola

[simple frost]

Now you really use SS Lusamine here

You've still got Tapus for A10 if aanything

[half bone]

Aaaaand gg.

tempted to throw in NC Caelem for bonus.

Nah, just tapus,

[west abyss]

Throw NC Calem for the boost, he has built in Status Immunity just keep him in Water mode

One of your other two can be Alolan, SS Hau would be great since he debuffs speed and fulfils the role bonus

[leaden wraith]

You always want to take advantage of double bonuses when you have the chance

[half bone]

I... used him. I didn't think I'd get Lucy.

[rapid notch]

Should I use riley r3,geeta and wallace r5-7 and ssacyn+sstred r7/10?

[hybrid abyss]

I'm cooked omg

[simple frost]

what happened?

[half bone]

This isn' working.

I'm just going down a rank.

I need this done before the reset

[hybrid abyss]

Cherzi mode incoming

[simple frost]

what happened?

what team did you use?

@half bone what team did you use?

with 3 stat boosts, SST Red will destroy that stage.

[half bone]

Used already

[simple frost]

ah damn.

what team did you try?

[half bone]

LuSSa (since your comment on using her in the lucky stage came too late for me to see), Acerola, and NC Caelem.

Tapu Acerola, I mean.

[simple frost]

did you get poisoned?

[half bone]

No, it was just hard to get damage done.

[simple frost]

she doesnt require rebuff

how much damage did you managed to do?

[half bone]

Not realy that much.

[simple frost]

did you get her to 50% HP?

[half bone]

Nope. LuSSa was doing scratch damage.

I managed to get Lucy down with NC Leaf but... the sides got me.

I was running into gauge problems realy bad.

Actually, ther'es a couple of items that could help make things work.

Sever Sundae and Free Lollipop

[simple frost]

you need Speed Debuffers

[half bone]

Nita instead of Acerola?

[simple frost]

if you're gonna use SS Lusa, yeah.

[half bone]

and Free Lollipop to help with gauge management?

[simple frost]

try it first

without the lollipop

[half bone]

...I tried already with Leaf, gauge management was better iwth her.

And I was STILL running out.

So no, I've already tried it with a less g auge hungry team.

[simple frost]

with Nita, NC Leaf, and SS Acerola?

[half bone]

Yes.

[simple frost]

NC Leaf has EX Role?

[half bone]

Yes.

[simple frost]

NC leaf should be able to kill hrm.

[half bone]

I ws running into MASSIVE guage problems.

had to do two attacks a turn.

Started out alright, went to hell towards the end.

8 bar consumption is not fun.

And yeha, like I siad, I beat the middle.

I lost to the sides.

I'm just getting the Lollipop.

[simple frost]

if you think that gauge is a problem, then might as well. .-.

[half bone]

...IT IS.

I'm struggling to understand how an 8 gauge consumption isn't hard to deal with.

[rapid notch]

Is this how I should manage them?

[simple frost]

you're already at 8k pts, so you're gonna be in 9000~ish

[hybrid abyss]

screw this omg

what's Aaron's weakness? same for in CS?

[half bone]

Jesus christ, why am I doing so little damage now?

[hybrid abyss]

someteonente halp me nowewewe

I need some serious unga bunga DPS for this man istg

or I splurge some points

[simple frost]

you've 3 Alola Upgrades, how are you having problems? D:?

Can you get a recoring of your gameplay?

[crisp token]

At this point splurge

You have 45 mins

[hybrid abyss]

holdup

[crisp token]

Are you having trouble with survivability?

If yes, Elec

[hybrid abyss]

no just damage

[simple frost]

Can you even Rebuff in that battle?

[crisp token]

Just Rebuff should be fine

[hybrid abyss]

rebuff power, elec upgrade, or def power lmao

[hybrid abyss]

meloetta being stuck:

[simple frost]

Rebuff Power it iss .-.

[normal python]

Doesn't Lucy cure rebuffs after endure?

[half bone]

Yeah, I need to rank down.

[half bone]

Yep.

[normal python]

Wait

[half bone]

Can't get her down before second sync, then it all falls apart.

[normal python]

I'm guessing one of your role bonus is support

[half bone]

...Yes.

Tech/Support.

[normal python]

Why not replace Nita?

[half bone]

...I need speed down.

[simple frost]

speed debuffer

[half bone]

I'm just ranking down at this point, I can't clear this.

[crisp token]

That's fine

[simple frost]

whose syncing? NC Leaf?

[normal python]

If you can't clear, just go to Hard

[half bone]

Acerola first.

Then Leaf.

[simple frost]

then leaf again?

[half bone]

Yeah.

She does the syncing afterwards.

[simple frost]

hum that's so weird.

she should be able to kill with thaat much firepower

hmmm

[half bone]

She's plinking away at her, this is why I don't understand how this fight isn't one of the tanky ones.

[normal python]

The rebuff gets cured so it's doing less than expected

[hybrid abyss]

Are.9 babyy

[simple frost]

she has less HP than the other UBs

[hybrid abyss]

SO MANY ELECTRIC WEAK OMG

[simple frost]

she's very easy too.

its like 320k or something

[half bone]

I miss having access to Rei.

[normal python]

She's easy when you focus on her, but the sides arw a real nuisance once you take her down

Over 200k HP

[simple frost]

tough. SST Red would've broken this one tbh.

[normal python]

And Leaf as a solo damage dealer isn't gonna cut it unless you have enough buffs

[simple frost]

Do you have any other EX Role Supports? @half bone ?

[half bone]

Red, but I'm out of cookies to get Antitoxin.

[simple frost]

another damage dealer perhapss

which Red

[half bone]

NC Red.

[simple frost]

NC Red?

[normal python]

Nita is easily the most expendible here

I saw Irida a while ago

[simple frost]

that can work.

As long as

[half bone]

...I don't have antitoxin.

[simple frost]

there's Sun

[half bone]

And I'm out of cookies to get it.

...I run out of sun fast.

[simple frost]

NC Leaf will protect Red

[half bone]

I've tried this strategy before.

[simple frost]

try it first

[half bone]

It struggles to function.

[hybrid abyss]

WHOOPS I FORGOT I HAD RILEY WITH ROLEX

oh well

[west abyss]

Y'all maybe read what they're telling you 😭 Leaf doesn't have enough sun uptime for the whole battle

[normal python]

Leaf has Drougjt Alert right?

[half bone]

No, I"m almost done with the hard fight, I"m just finishing.

I appreciate the help but I just want this done now.

[normal python]

SS Acerola

[simple frost]

pain ;-;

They have SS Acerola

[west abyss]

I think they've committed to hard mode already which is fine, it'll be a much easier clear if they don't want to stress over VH

[half bone]

1/5, no sun MPR.

[simple frost]

Oh

yikes

k time to hit Hard Mode then

[normal python]

Well, ummmm...

[hybrid abyss]

what do I do against argenta with bluejay and chicken master fairs?

[crisp token]

What's bluejay and chicken

[simple frost]

what's your role bonus? o.o?

[west abyss]

^

[hybrid abyss]

whoops instinctively said anabel lmao

strike/tech

[simple frost]

got Adaman?

[hybrid abyss]

idk UB weaknesses 😭

yeah 😎

[normal python]

NC Red can double rebuff

[simple frost]

Adaman will destroy that stage.

[west abyss]

Well Adaman is the counter so you're set

[simple frost]

Just usse hiss BMove at 50%

NC Red will also be nice for role bonus.

then all you need is Electric tank or ssomething

[hybrid abyss]

Zapdos, Articuno, and destroyer as the team comp?

[simple frost]

yes.

[west abyss]

Should work

[normal python]

Weather setter?

[west abyss]

Adaman?

[simple frost]

Adaman hass Sun entry

[normal python]

Yeah ok

[hybrid abyss]

argenta needs a weather setter? oh wait lmao

[simple frost]

and sync

[normal python]

Just making sure

[crisp token]

That sounds like more than enough

[west abyss]

yep

[hybrid abyss]

could use 1/5 Irida instead if that might work for blitzing

[normal python]

Make sure you properly time Adaman's sync

[simple frost]

if you sync and nuke Argenta and you bring her down to less than 50

[normal python]

No wait

[west abyss]

What's the role bonus again? Strike/Tech?

[normal python]

Yes

[crisp token]

Keep Adaman, NC Red is just bonus

No need to bring Irida into this

[simple frost]

900 pts lets go ❤️

[elfin tendon]

Good week. Spent 600

[normal python]

I'm awaiting the day I get 10k+ pts. without lucky area

[crisp token]

Just cake

[normal python]

I got 9600 as my personal best for now with 200 spent

[normal python]

Ah yes, telling poor people to eat cake

[elfin tendon]

Yum

[simple frost]

delicious cake. tbh... those item descriptions look good ❤️

[normal python]

My next cake is striker for Geeta

Also time for me to get 100 points this week

[hybrid abyss]

omg why is she so ez

[simple frost]

bruh

[normal python]

Because boosts

[simple frost]

you have 3 Elec and like 3 Rebuffs + 2 Def powewr

or somewhere around there

[hybrid abyss]

no I don't

I literally don't

1 elec 2 rebuff

that's it

[simple frost]

that's good enough.

[normal python]

Still too easy

With boosts

[leaden wraith]

Keep in mind to always use double boost units, no matter what

[west abyss]

Yeah that's a big boost

[leaden wraith]

No point of saving an average strike for strike tech

[hybrid abyss]

rip not even 9k

[normal python]

I'm praying for no tech boosts so that I can cheese every easy stage with SST Red

[elfin tendon]

i bought a cake for selene and forgot to cake her before the last rally battle

[simple frost]

aight. setting up for this week o/

[hybrid abyss]

me forgetting riley exists:

[simple frost]

i haven't caked him yet

i just use him in early

[crisp token]

Riley for me is solely Sprint fodder

[elfin tendon]

LOL i also caked riley today

[crisp token]

There's way better pairs to use Strike cake on

[normal python]

Just making sure only; 100 points is the least possible amount of points you can earn in rally right?

[crisp token]

I think so

[hybrid abyss]

oh

[crisp token]

But why

[elfin tendon]

does anyone want me to test that out

[normal python]

I was already going to do that

Don't steal it from me

[crisp token]

You get 500 pts as a starter, quit penalty gives you a 0.2 multiplier, that's 100 pts

[elfin tendon]

well i haven't

Be my guest

[crisp token]

I mean go ahead

You can all do it

No need to be selfish

[normal python]

I forgot you start with 500 points

Time to use See-noculars

[elfin tendon]

actually you can get 0 i think

[normal python]

Also lowest points without quitting BTW

[crisp token]

Spend all your points and quit for a grand total of 0 points

[elfin tendon]

yeah that

[normal python]

You get points after completing the level

[crisp token]

Just quit immediately

Can't you?

[elfin tendon]

then spend all your points and fail on the first level 10000 times

[normal python]

Yeah, like I said, no quitting

[elfin tendon]

which will take hours

[normal python]

Lowest points no quitting

[crisp token]

If no quitting, then it's just 10*100

100 points per floor, only base, no bonus

[elfin tendon]

does having no sync pairs left count as quitting

[crisp token]

Actually

What would happen?

I guess technically it's impossible to have no sync pairs left

You will always have at least 1

[elfin tendon]

1 alive?

[crisp token]

It simply wouldn't let you progress if you lose

[elfin tendon]

🤔

[crisp token]

So your only option is to quit

Or lose the gems lol

[elfin tendon]

oh so its not like gauntlet style

[crisp token]

No

[elfin tendon]

I see

[crisp token]

If you fail a floor you get rolled back to before

[elfin tendon]

well I've caked 3 pairs today
time to wait until next month

[normal python]

Here we go

[simple frost]

CSMM for me for now

[normal python]

Ice upgrade

Right off the bat, I get strike/tech

[formal gull]

[normal python]

How can I only get 100 points with this?

[fair ember]

F

[west abyss]

Uh what is the Lusamine battle with Tough Skin?

[fair ember]

Show pic

[leaden wraith]

2nd Anni BC

[west abyss]

Ah

[crisp token]

852 stamina

[leaden wraith]

this is crime

helper caught not spending stamina

[crisp token]

Alright let's see what we got this w-

Well surely there's something good in the sh-

[rustic dagger]

pain and suffering

ground buff

[leaden wraith]

the other route of sup field is better

only has 1 field sprint

hopefully i can get that route

[rustic dagger]

nah u can have this one

ill take that one

[leaden wraith]

[rustic dagger]

area 10 better bless me with anabel for the shitshow of roles i got

im prolly the first person who put the word bless and anabel in the same sentence now that i think about it

[leaden wraith]

and i'm the second

[normal python]

And thank you very much

[rustic dagger]

nice retire

[normal python]

Retire would be 0.2x bonus

[rustic dagger]

wait thats not even reitre

nice bonuses

[normal python]

Thanks the rally this week was hard

It's too bad actually, my role bonuses this week was really good, but I prioritized my masochism

[crisp token]

RIP your cakes

[normal python]

Like I said, I prioritized my masochism

[rustic dagger]

[carmine glade]

Started with SE power up is it worth

[rustic dagger]

if u constantly use their weakness against them sure

[carmine glade]

Bleh

[normal python]

I'd be more worried on A10

[rustic dagger]

i dont usually bother with typings. worry more about points

[normal python]

If your role bonuses don't match up with your roster

[leaden wraith]

i got the opposite route

oops sorry for ping

[carmine glade]

I started with strike support

I’m worried it’s one with only one strike support stage

[rustic dagger]

dw idc about pings. i dont see why people constantly take it off ngl. id rather see it highlighted

[leaden wraith]

i just want to be nice

[carmine glade]

Because getting pinged while still being in the convo can be annoying

[normal python]

Me too

[karmic briar]

Weekly rant

[rustic dagger]

if ur already in the convo youre not always gonna see people replying to you if the channel is active

ig it isnt rn but yh

[crisp token]

Hmm I got the same

[carmine glade]

Wondering if I should use mc blue a1 for double points or save him for later

[simple frost]

the "I dropped from A10 VH to H" sheningans

[carmine glade]

[simple frost]

SST Red usage D:

(and Anni May if you have herP

[carmine glade]

I have red

[simple frost]

what's your A10 role bonuss?

[carmine glade]

Idk

This is between like 2 seeds

I won’t know till I clear

[karmic briar]

I dropped the V from VH

[simple frost]

wat

[karmic briar]

The very from very hard

And going strictly to hard

[carmine glade]

A3 is either sprint/field or support sprint

[urban ledge]

No matter which pattern I get I end up with Tech Support HELL YEAH

[carmine glade]

Lucky

[urban ledge]

The one on the right does have double sprint field though

[leaden wraith]

we might get the same pattern

[urban ledge]

But at least I can use previous round units

[carmine glade]

I’ve either got support sprint or sprint field a10

[urban ledge]

Unfortunately I got THIS

Which, good news for SCelene to show her stuff but eesh

OH NO WAIT

I LOVE YOU BLUE GIRL

[simple frost]

dang i hate it here

[carmine glade]

Support sprint a10

[simple frost]

posossily

[carmine glade]

Oh I meant for me

[fair ember]

Only in battle rally do i make these teams

[urban ledge]

lol

[fair ember]

Now u dumping all the Steels

[urban ledge]

Alright I got this pattern

Doing it after work

[hybrid abyss]

ey my previous rotation! yippee!!!

wait nvm that's so similar omg

istg this is DeNa trolling us

[west abyss]

I had this one today

Still no lucky stage

[hybrid abyss]

You can search up both of them and see the possiblities. Who knows? You might find out that both of them don't have sprintfield idfk.

[carmine glade]

Oh I know what it is now

[simple frost]

nice

[carmine glade]

Both did end up having sprint field it was just a question of is it A3 or A10

A3 for me so 10 is support sprint

[simple frost]

ew

[hybrid abyss]

oh wow Redchu would be good for both of these scenarios; thankfully, you don't necessarily need him for the max potential points.

[rustic dagger]

neither. we stay getting shafted

[hybrid abyss]

me and the boys trying to find a lucky stage (impossible)

[dense latch]

I got the best set

[hybrid abyss]

what the actual fuck is that?

[simple frost]

oh hell na

[dense latch]

I don't know but I'm not complaining I can use like 14 caked units

[hybrid abyss]

the OP supports being thrown at A1:

[rustic dagger]

man i wish. i have so many exrs to match with that exact setup

[dense latch]

Haha well nc blue takes anything in 10

[hybrid abyss]

Palmer:

also consider this: 2 sprintfields

[dense latch]

I've got 5 sprints I think

No 6

[rustic dagger]

ive got 11 with exrs so i wouldnt mind the sprint setup anymore

[carmine glade]

What’s worth more points double role bonus all pairs on H or 2 double role bonus on VH

[rustic dagger]

field however.. got just enough to match it

[carmine glade]

I’ve got alola upgrade but no one strike tech

[west abyss]

i've got 25+ EXRs and my least favourite is definitely the full field set

🚮

[hybrid abyss]

I'm not grabbing a calculator for this shit

[rustic dagger]

im on 23 rn. will be 25 when may rolls around

barry and selene got the short end of the stick in the battle with ss may and anni may

[hybrid abyss]

how the hell? were you guys able to grab all those day one cake tickets?

[rustic dagger]

yes

[west abyss]

Ofc

[rustic dagger]

we got 5 entries

[hybrid abyss]

dang I only got 13/20

[rustic dagger]

id be surprised if someone managed to come up short

[hybrid abyss]

bro it was a single goddamn day

[rustic dagger]

didnt we almost have a full day

week*

[carmine glade]

Yes

[hybrid abyss]

we did?

[west abyss]

the very first one was a day

[carmine glade]

Nah

[rustic dagger]

yikes

[carmine glade]

A day

[west abyss]

For some reason they released it on the last day of the month

[rustic dagger]

my apologies then

[west abyss]

And shop reset the next day lmfao

[carmine glade]

And we didn’t even have this thing optimized

[hybrid abyss]

all I remember is that I was pretty busy around that time

[west abyss]

It was hectic af

[carmine glade]

Now we know

[rustic dagger]

i remember my first run was nc blue iono and sst red for the whole rally

somehow got 8.5k points

[carmine glade]

That first day was interesting to say the least

[rustic dagger]

maybe not 8.5 but above 8 i wanna say

[west abyss]

#1153583498687414283 message I got 8.5k for my first one too 🤝

[rustic dagger]

yh nvm i wasnt even close to 8k lmfao

i got around 6.5k

[west abyss]

oh 😭

[dense latch]

@west abyss and his kind of people are the reason we have a f2p friendly game

[hybrid abyss]

Stealing1-

[carmine glade]

I’m gonna lose it nothing in my shop has been good

[hybrid abyss]

who needs good upgrades anyways

[west abyss]

You're welcome!

[carmine glade]

Finally a good upgrade

[hybrid abyss]

.... so u gonna ignore the one onsale?

[carmine glade]

I’m never getting accuracy down

[dense latch]

Any UB that ash sst red nc blue can't clear?

[west abyss]

Anabel

[dense latch]

Or ash nc leaf and nc blue lol def can clear

O just Anabel? She needs weather right?

[west abyss]

Yup

[dense latch]

OK nc leaf should do it then huh

[west abyss]

Argenta too

needs weather change

I don't think they've cleared Palmer yet either

[dense latch]

Worse case I throw in adaman off theme

Ash sst red nc blue cleared palmer

[west abyss]

Oh they did?

[dense latch]

Like with a margin

[west abyss]

Ah my bad then

[simple frost]

uhh which cookie gives acuity?

[dense latch]

pretty sure blue

like dauntless

[simple frost]

thanks

[severe bronze]

this team somehow works against thorton

had to put red on dc2

x2 ice boost x2 stat down multiplier

[carmine glade]

Pain

[simple frost]

what upgraades?

Main Character?

[dense latch]

The only unit Im not sure is NC Leaf right now. What do you reckon?

[carmine glade]

Man that was annoying

It was champion

[simple frost]

uhh was there an eggmon that has Rock Smash?

that;s a support?

[fathom yacht]

I had to fight CLeaf area 7, and i got TRIPLE anabel

Because my silver is uninvested even hard sucked for anabel. I had to let her sync a second time, then killed her IN THE SUN(psychic powerup is why i used Lusamine and not NCRed)

[simple frost]

That was rough .-.

[nimble tide]

Man if only i didn't throw away SSA Cynthia's TM and like, get the overalls defensive + attack jelly

[simple frost]

9750 is pretty nice though~

[nimble tide]

Bonus was absolute dawg

like

no lucky space

nothing

i had to make hala as tank at one point

also

[fathom yacht]

I’ve gotten 4 lucky stages since start of BR

[nimble tide]

trial giver upgrade

sucks

[fathom yacht]

So getting shit luck this time was fair

[nimble tide]

thank god for SS Cyrus

he literally cheeses stage 9

[fathom yacht]

My cyrus is 1/5

:/

[nimble tide]

spam dark void zzzz

[nimble tide]

give him some speed buffs and he will function

[fathom yacht]

I suppose

I do the same with SSLyra and i just leave her out of gt

But they both do literally the exact same thing sooooo

[nimble tide]

also

[nimble tide]

it's quite easy tbh

[fathom yacht]

Yeah just time every other void right

Typical sleep shenanigans

[fathom yacht]

Also nice Sprint field area 10

[nimble tide]

yeah

ssa cynthia

rei

and riley were

waiting

[fathom yacht]

Into palmer?

[nimble tide]

battle was against barry's dad even

[fathom yacht]

🤢

[nimble tide]

yes

it was perfect

[fathom yacht]

Imagine if you didn’t save those units

[nimble tide]

until no bonus

sucks

welp

at least apple cup

[fathom yacht]

☠️

The day I buy apple cup is the day i become weak

[nimble tide]

meh

it's not worth torturing yourself

we got #1012311116778586182 for that

[normal python]

I bought the Apple Cup just for testing purposes. I bought it again today because you know

[simple frost]

https://youtu.be/BonIe04SGvk heh... managed to beat this one.

could've done NC Leaf too but she didnt have her cake. yet.

[quiet tiger]

This is a nice reward after having to record 9 solos yesterday. Might record this.

[simple frost]

alola upgrade? nice

[fair ember]

Another wonky team

Water upgrade Supports versus Poison-weak CS Cynthia

[normal python]

Defense Steven instead of Attack

[fair ember]

Yes cus he has halfed HP so i made him into Recover mode

[normal python]

Did you use Protect?

[fair ember]

Oh shit I forgot to use SSA cynthia boost

[simple frost]

1 more week xd

[normal python]

Hopefully next week will give me a good one

After I've wasted a good one this week

[muted sparrow]

Guess it SS Gladion times

[normal python]

Only last stage benefits Gladion

[quiet tiger]

Yeah but he can be used on all of them

[karmic briar]

Quick question about thorton
Which type of attacks is he vulnerable first? Physical or special?

I have to make it work with mix red and rei so have to time carefully the GT

[stark dawn]

Both

It's like azelf

[karmic briar]

Yes but he switches

[stark dawn]

Fuck I cant read I didnt see the first

It's special first I believe

[karmic briar]

[stark dawn]

You have all details in the UB Doc in #1009557516369281075 pins

[dense latch]

Dang gauge issue much

Nvm too much dmg.

Forgot irida has no gauge needed

[normal python]

Doesn't Red have Recharging Strike?

[dense latch]

Yea you are right! i didn't bother regridding

OK wtf is this lol

Why is everything getting 1 shot

What do I need to do

Is it terrain?

[frail raptor]

I finally did it. 8.2k points and I only bought the Apple Cup at the end. My starting condition was elec type power up.

[normal python]

That's NY Wallace and Clair's BC IIRC

[dense latch]

So what

No nc Wallace I'm fudged

Lol

[normal python]

Dawn has GT because of Clair's passive

[dense latch]

So I need to get rid of it?

[normal python]

Yes

[dense latch]

Man I got not units that can do that...

[normal python]

Defog tho?

[dense latch]

Hmm ss lana

[normal python]

But what's your role bonuses?

[dense latch]

Unova

[normal python]

Not that

[dense latch]

Defog who has that

Sticker support

[normal python]

BP Falkner, Lisia and Darach

[dense latch]

Gg no bp falkner and the other have no bonus

[frail raptor]

Don't you have a unit which can overwrite the terrain?

With bonus?

[dense latch]

Yes ss lana

[frail raptor]

Use her and time your terrains.

Probably (95% sure), if there isn't a grass terrain, she won't do that much damage and/or deal

[karmic briar]

Im the new major of SprintField

[gentle maple]

Yikes only got 10 rolex here I can use

[dense latch]

10 is like godscend for me

[frail raptor]

Yeah... I usually aim for 7.5-8.2k.

[gentle maple]

I got 23 Rolex

Oh well

[frail raptor]

Always use the apple cup tho

[dense latch]

Holy smokes that was harddd

Dawn

[gentle maple]

That's a no go for me

I rather default to hard

[gentle maple]

Anyways that's not the point, support field and sprint field appears twice in this seed

[frail raptor]

Why?

Do you aim for all the monthly rewards or only the tickets?

[simple frost]

Dont need apple cup

Never have i used apple cup

[stark dawn]

Waiting tomorrow for the EX R on Red

[frail raptor]

About stage 10 very hard. How much easier it is than the UBs without any boosts? Or is it the same?

[karmic briar]

With 0 boost is actually double the UB

[gentle maple]

Because using apple cup to do VH only nets u 250 which is less than hard

[gentle maple]

Tickets, orbs and PU if possible

More realistically tickets and PU and some orbs

[frail raptor]

Really. Less than hard? How much does the hard give you?

[fair ember]

Tenk you very much I love Darach

[frail raptor]

With 3 x 1.5 units

[gentle maple]

500

[frail raptor]

I see.

I might have to change my approach

If my pool of units allows it

[gentle maple]

Well if u are playing rally for fun apple cup is fine

[simple frost]

Looks like u need argenta clear ooof

[gentle maple]

But if u want to net as much points wise, never buy a1 scope and apple cup

[frail raptor]

I do but I would love to get the pus too each month.

[gentle maple]

Also learn to use items at the right time, some are really strong in situations even though they only cost 100

[frail raptor]

Yeah... 58k points per month. I don't think that's doable. I'll stick to tickets for now and see.

[fair ember]

No i dont need Argenta clear

[simple frost]

Noice

Gl then o/

[fair ember]

Just lost, now i need a paralysis power up for 50 points

[sharp haven]

What the hell…

Double hell

[gentle maple]

Same energy as mine

[fair ember]

Do you have field units?

Actually i think yours looks very good

9

[sharp haven]

Come to think of it, yeah this is not so bad after all. I do have some field units, but most of them are 1/5, and i try hard to get the highest points possible (less item shopping if i can)

[plush anchor]

Welllllll

Just don't be Palmer

[karmic briar]

You have last 3 areas where you can use caked frogs: not bad at all

[normal python]

No Kalos NCs?

[dense latch]

Hmm is the BR stage 10 supposed to be harder than the UB lol

[carmine glade]

VH is

[dense latch]

So I can't straight copy the ub team without buffs

[severe bronze]

if you dont have any bonus then its 2x ub

[pearl lion]

personal record

[dense latch]

How much buffs I need to get the same

[carmine glade]

Hard isn’t bad

[severe bronze]

1x theme boost = ub

[carmine glade]

It depends

[pearl lion]

how hard UB is depends on the roles you get and your roster

[carmine glade]

This is the main rule about rally

[dense latch]

So I'm pretty fuked with no theme on palmer huh

[carmine glade]

And how much you score

[severe bronze]

i think naruto is asking about stat boost

then 1x theme boost equal facing an actual ubs

[pearl lion]

tbh its pretty easy w/ 3 theme boosts

+2 50 point boosts

[carmine glade]

VH is like double the stats of a UB

Iirc

[severe bronze]

if you dont have any matching theme bonus then yes

its 2x

[dense latch]

I have 2x unova boost and palmer wtf am I supposed to do

[severe bronze]

did you pick any damage multiplier

[carmine glade]

Why elesa

[dense latch]

I need unova

[carmine glade]

I mean why hee specifically

[pearl lion]

do you have fall caitlin

[carmine glade]

There’s other unova units

[simple frost]

its palmer

he needss the DPS / Nuke

[pearl lion]

Fairp

[carmine glade]

She’s spending 2 turns with x attack

[plush anchor]

Sprint/field stage

Has tough skin for 3 types 🙂
How to make me hate myself

[pearl lion]

ss hilda for secondary dps?

[dense latch]

What other units 😂

[severe bronze]

even with damage multiplier boost its still hard

might consider going hard

[carmine glade]

Also yea

Palmer on vh isn’t it

[simple frost]

how's your shop?

[carmine glade]

I’d swap her for caitlin

At least she doesn’t have setup time because of blue

[simple frost]

you need damage tbh

[dense latch]

OK let's try caitlin and see what's up

I can get 3x unova

That's about it

[severe bronze]

doesnt effect much

you need damage multiplier

[simple frost]

i think you could do it

[fair ember]

Too bad no NC rosa

[severe bronze]

@timid hound learned the hard way

[fair ember]

I think its better u dont try Palmer and do the 2nd hardest stage

[severe bronze]

[simple frost]

see if you can do 2x unova firt

see how much damage you can do

[ebon valve]

oh look it's sprint field... am I getting my hopes up for 8x sprint

everytime it's been track D3-a

[simple frost]

yikes.

[ebon valve]

and my upgrade is psychic, so I'd apperciate D3-b

[severe bronze]

also slotting celesa is probably better than og elesa

and even then im not sure if they can clear

[plush anchor]

What's a stronger team
SSTeven + LuSSamine + NC Blue
Or
VElio + LuSSamine + NC Blue

Lets say

Vs palmer

[stark dawn]

you really think that can beat palmer lol

elio prob for terrain

[plush anchor]

Yes,

But VElio wants sync
And so does the queen of slow

[ebon valve]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/855438548684374045/1229410911165612134/image.png?ex=662f9522&is=661d2022&hm=38f657564e4126e41efee4fd3ef1c87e2f0ec1aa43e73ac967e0bd9c62c704f4& with Psychic as mu upgrade. MELOETTA

[severe bronze]

where lana

[carmine glade]

Rosa gaming

[severe bronze]

nc blue is bad matchup against palmer without his electric bois

no accel

cant flinch

[simple frost]

I think you're gonna deal more damage with SSTeven, Velio and NC Blue.

[ebon valve]

[normal python]

Hmmm, should I do it again next week?

[plush anchor]

Not within the combinations I need 👀

[dense latch]

It's no way near with 3x boost

[severe bronze]

use celesa

[lost cliff]

caitlin is definitely a choice

[simple frost]

does c elesa have like

Sync Countdown sheningans?

[lost cliff]

yup

and debuffs

[simple frost]

then do it

[severe bronze]

the bigger impact is et and debuffs

palmer has lower mitigation

[simple frost]

if you can sync with NC Blue + C Elesa

and Ash + BMove

should be able to do it

[sudden heron]

Also got a lucky stage at 8

[plush anchor]

I die to first sync with these 3

[craggy helm]

I had originally thought the villain upgrade wasn’t bad until I got my stages…..

[lost cliff]

do any of them match your boosts

if not thats probably why you're dying

plus where is your damage

[carmine glade]

rosa obviously

[simple frost]

oh no.

[plush anchor]

This is the actual answer

[plush anchor]

Unfortunately none matches the boost
I was just trying to stall clear but too much dmg

Either gotta do H stage

Or take off one of them

[severe bronze]

hard will give you lower points i think

[plush anchor]

Yeah

I just did math

Will try to take out dawn

And fit in Riley since i already used my other 2 sprinters that can work here lol

[severe bronze]

800 vs 1050

[simple frost]

1200 vs 1050 basically lol

[plush anchor]

1200?

I can't do vh with three supports

So its 2 of them (1050)

Or hard with all 3 (800)

Why did I use Rei too early

[tribal abyss]

does anyone know what the gimmick for this stage is?

i do zero damage and i see no passives that are reducing damage when i attack

i am using physical attacks and special attacks and there is very little difference so i might just need more multipliers

[leaden wraith]

that stage has toxic before the first sync

mid has Wise Entryx2 and sides have Sentry Entry x2

iirc

there are two pastebin links where you can check info of certain stages out

[sudden heron]

With how the point calcs works is it better to use a 3 x2.0 units in one battle or spread them over 3 different stages that they also have x2.0 bonus

[crisp token]

On paper there is no difference, however there is the possibility of getting a Lucky Stage on a later floor

[plush anchor]

Your question is basically
900 + 900 + 900
Or
1200 + 750 + 750

[crisp token]

And personally, I try to split them up if possible since they're not always synergistic, and this could be a problem especially on later floors

[plush anchor]

I like to keep them till the very end

Just for that reason

Lucky

Stage

Reason

[crisp token]

Sanest gacha gamer

Additional thoughts: since floor 10 cannot be a Lucky Stage, use up your double roles BEFORE it if there's a floor with the same bonus, this gives you way more flexibility to actually counter the stage

And if you find that you can't beat it, you don't lose out on as many potential points

[sharp haven]

i do have them both, but not caked, and i have no plans yet to cake them 😦

[plush anchor]

Considering I had to compromise
Not upset at all

[sudden heron]

New high score

[normal python]

That looks like my exact personal best

[proven matrix]

currently in a struggle to think of where to use aura cynthia/nc rosa.
on one hand, two 2.0x bonus for area 7,
on the other, nothing for area 10

[leaden wraith]

use both on A7

[proven matrix]

hm alright

trial giver bonus is so wack

[normal python]

You have 3 striker/sprint units?

[proven matrix]

nop

[ebon valve]

A10: Support+Sprint, vsDarach.
Boosts: 1x Psychic, 2x Sync Move Power↑
Shop: ^above, Trap↑ ↑, Countdown Ice Cream (makes sync CD 6 instead of 9), Popcorn.

[urban ledge]

God DAMMIT

This has been a very crap run

[simple frost]

Superefective Popcorn, .... maybe you have Paulo? 😮

tbh....

what are your units you're planning to do?

[ebon valve]

yeah I have Paulo, ncRosa, and ssaCynthia available. Doubting solo dps.

[simple frost]

Hmm yeah that can do it.

test with your current setup and just apply what ya need

[ebon valve]

I think the Countdown Ice Cream is more effective. Cause I'd be able to sync a lot more.

[simple frost]

try it first

before buying

the ATK Down Power is gonna be nice though.

[urban ledge]

To this day I still haven’t beaten Oalmer a single damn time

[simple frost]

i think you'd want damage more than the Countdown considering your units.

[ebon valve]

not really feasible with ncRosa only

[ebon valve]

who do you have for that stage

[simple frost]

Tech Support

basically, if they have NC Leaf or NC Serena

it should be possible

[simple frost]

main character right?

the blue one

[ebon valve]

yeah mc is blue

[urban ledge]

Yeah

[simple frost]

Hum

post your 2.0x units

let's ssee what you've got.

[ebon valve]

Rival is red... (when they coulda done red (mc) vs blue (rival))

[simple frost]

tbh, he wont do too much damage, so you can do Triple Tech

so you'll need a way to sync 3 to 4 timess before he drops his max move

but anyways letsee your roster

[urban ledge]

Nc leaf Cerena and that’s it for 2.0
