I can always send a screenshot too.

#

have you used the site in the past?

#

or how long was the last time you enter lol

#

that happens mostly when someone has a very old version of the site

zinc meadow
#

Usually a popup saying to update it will come up if it needs to be updated.

shrewd sparrow
#

yeah, but I added that feature later

placid heart
#

I assume that is their first time opening the app

shrewd sparrow
#

the site not loading may be because it has a very old version in cache

#

there's not even the loading thing haha

old niche
#

No need to 5/5 lysandre right?

#

The SS one? At least 3/5?

sweet parcel
#

1/5 is fine

Sync grid for a 3/5 lysander ?

echo crypt
#

imagine listening to advice you were told in another channel, look at the doc in the pins, second link

clever thorn
#

The one right here ^

bronze dragon
#

His grid expansion is unappealing

crystal tiger
#

Why is Heat Wave Scorching Touch 4 recommended on SS Lysandrs's grid?

shadow wadi
#

His innate burn chance isn't great

crystal tiger
#

Hostile Environment 3 doesn't make it near guaranteed?

shadow wadi
#

It's 10% innate, HE3 only bumps it up to 40%. And aoe reduction drops it to 20%. Per target.

#

So you'll have 0.8% of burning all three targets

crystal tiger
#

Oh, I was thinking of using Steam Eruption. But now that you say that, I assume that's a terrible decision

shadow wadi
#

Well, it's simply slower

crystal tiger
#

I'm assuming it's slower but not better than HWST

shadow wadi
#

Define "better"

#

With ST you click Heat wave once, burn everyone, get your multipliers + full boost from b-move

crystal tiger
#

Better chance of burning RileyHaha

shadow wadi
#

You have to click it three times. If you click Heat Wave three times, it has much better burn rate with ST

crystal tiger
#

Ah

bronze dragon
#

Burn 2 targets and call it a day

#

Heat wave can still miss the burn chance and suddenly you've lost 2 turns using the weak move

#

And that's speaking in a 3v3, if it's 3v1 then more of a reason to use steam eruption

#

Add to that the energy investment it requires to go scorching touch 4 route

#

The only scenario where I can see it viable is if you don't want to sync with him

primal wasp
#

Going to get 5/5 SS Lysandre for sure, although the Burn Down Tile feels a bit redundant when I am running him with Frogs

#

Might just stick with the B Hydro Bump Build

placid heart
#

Why 5/5 other than the 10% damage increase he has everythomh he wamts at 3/5

remote path
#

Weather Warrior 3 or Critical Strike 2 on SS Lys? one build only has rain idk

merry onyx
#

whichever you want

#

depends on the teams you'll run him in most

#

it really just boils down to "how many purple cookies would you be willing to use"

placid heart
#

I keep reading sslys as SSLyn or thinking "Lysithea" this is going to be pain for me

clever thorn
#

I generally only like giving iCookieDeluxe for the utility lucky skills, people like lysandre don’t need the extra damage

soft night
#

is +6 BP better for SS Lysandre, or +20 Sp.ATK
Going for a B-Move grid.

#

^I'm guessing this applies, to buddymove B Hydro Pump's case

bronze dragon
#

To check just use pomatools and compare the 2 results

primal wasp
#

But you are right

sly fulcrum
#

He's alr destroying stuff at 1/5 for me lol

#

I'm still gonna candy him to 3/5

stark berry
#

I feel LySSander is fine at 1/5 (unlike Anabel)

sly fulcrum
#

Every top tier striker are fine at 1/5

#

3/5 is just piling more dps

stark berry
#

But pretty strong at 5/5 or even 3/5

gentle sun
#

5/5 really only matters for Cynthia in LG

echo crypt
#

news to me Cynthia is a top striker tho

sly fulcrum
#

that's why she's not top tier jk

stark berry
#

But 3/5 is still mandatory

gentle sun
#

And even then it’s just something that could potentially let you squeeze an extra run in

gentle sun
sly fulcrum
#

She's definitely not a top tier striker tho imo

#

Better ground strikers out there

elfin crypt
#

4/5 gives dust kicker right?

fading gulch
#

i think thats 5/5 but i could be wrong

gentle sun
#

5/5 is Sand Alert

#

Dust Kicker is in fact 4/5

fading gulch
#

well thats mb

#

still 4/5 and 5/5 seem like lg shit

gentle sun
#

They are pretty much LG shenanigans

#

4/5 lets Slash actually be viable over Earthquake, but that’s never really been an issue, especially once Cynthia got her 3/5 Power Boost

fading gulch
#

well slash is a bit better with gauge but like i dont think it really matters

#

though slash dps is funny

bronze dragon
#

Cynthia isn't a unit that struggles with gauge so I don't see slash being more viable unless fancy LG solo run

#

But yeah all this comes from top tier strikers being fine at 1/5, and Cynthia definitely isn't a top striker

rotund talon
#

is there any reason why the 3/5 anabel grid on the doc is this

#

and not this

#

i guess the extra stats are a bit more universal, but as a generalist grid i’d still argue for the latter, in that 10hp and 5 def doesn’t outvalue quick cure QOL.

#

also this is not a huge deal, but just curious

bronze dragon
#

Yeah yours is better polished

stark berry
#

But i guess acerola can kinda do the job

stuck compass
#

Qn is sslysandre really strong at 5/5? I see a lot of promising things in the grid

sweet parcel
#

not really

stark berry
#

Is strong even at 1/5

sweet parcel
#

his 5/5 grid only brings some utility

#

and SEUN?

stuck compass
#

I like the reduction in spdef and atk

#

But I haven't even thought of pulling for a 1/5 because half anniv is arnd the corner

stark berry
#

I feel that is more useful for gauntlet

#

Master mode will get obliterated before he can make use of and debuff

stuck compass
stark berry
#

Super syncer 9

sweet parcel
#

he gets Super Syncer 9

stuck compass
#

True I guess it's kinda overkill atm

stark berry
#

Luckily it's fine at 1/5

#

5/5 is more for gauntlet

stuck compass
#

His buddymove alr does that anyway

stark berry
#

The only unit that wants 5/5 of this batch i think is Anabel

stuck compass
#

Oh

#

5/5 support feels v

stark berry
#

1/5 is pretty bad

stuck compass
#

Yeah

stark berry
#

3/5 is ok but still crippled

#

4/5 is good for CS but still heavily crippled in gauntlet

stuck compass
#

Sadge WhitneySad

stark berry
#

Is definitely the unit that i hate the most (as a concept)

#

It's the DLC unit

stuck compass
#

Lol

Especially with frogs

Both him and Emma are clear 3/5 and that's it

#

Hi guys what should I pick from xerneas expanded grid?

shadow wadi
#

You can adjust grid depending on what you need for specific stage.

Team Sharp Entry is likely to be often used though.

stark berry
#

I think all 4 tiles are useful (but depends on scenario) quick cure helps with flinches or confusion that can ruin the run (even trap to a lessen extent) freevenge 4 is helpful with gauges, beef up helps boosting horn leech faster and team sharp entry 1 helps if you don't bring +3 crit support

clever thorn
ashen bough
#

I'm using sycamore's horn leech grid but i think sharp entry would do fine for my new sycamore

#

But i have no places left unless i give up mpr on tm, and i kinda like it despite it being situational

#

So my question is, is it worth giving up mpr for sharp entry?

#

Or adrenaline for sharp entry?

#

Or skip sharp entry altogether and use it in another sycamore build?

shadow wadi
#

What do you need tm mpr for?

#

You can change grids for any stage anyway. Need TSE -> swap out mpr. Need tm mpr -> swap out something else

ashen bough
#

Yeah sounds good

ashen bough
shadow wadi
#

You click his TM in villa?

ashen bough
#

When it's the 'boss' ones

#

Otherwise i try not to

elfin crypt
#

You could switch sycamore out for boss fights with different supports haha

bronze dragon

For BV you can run gridless WEEZing

I only sometimes refer to the doc since I usually center my striker around a csmm team

#

Best antitoxin grid for calem EBE?

placid heart
#

That’s vague who are you referring too

amber tusk
#

Janine or BP Janine.

placid heart
#

Oh

stark berry
merry onyx
#

This is what I used for BP janine

#

Team sharp entry isn't needed if your striker already maxes it and you could swap it with somethin else ig

crystal tiger
#

Is this a good Villa grid for Sycamore?

gentle sun
#

Why bother with Dazzling Gleam MGR?

#

Especially when you can get another Master Healer tile

crystal tiger
#

Gauges at the start of the Battle can be an issue

bronze dragon

#

Very useful advice, thank you Racer

bronze dragon
sly fulcrum
#

Oh I ran the exact same team back then

#

Just run RB4 and whatever

#

Starting gauge u can barely squeeze out the DG so it's fine

#

Lillie runs RB9

#

Everything else is whatever

sly fulcrum
#

I remember running this for ethan

#

Start with whirlpool always

bronze dragon
#

Nit-picking but just pick piercing gaze instead of accuracy nodes

#

It serves for both moves and it's same energy cost

sly fulcrum
#

Yeah that's definitely better

If it's Lugia how do you use him? And with who

silent dragon
#

its fun

#

why?

cunning fox
#

I don’t care if the grid would be good. I need to know. Would it be possible to pick up all of Tates entry passives in one grid

#

I really want to make a silly goofy mood grid where I just get to see his stupid sun rock plop onto stage and it’s stats rise the dawn

#

I think this is the best I can do

stark berry

Or this if you want sde5 instead

stuck compass

elfin crypt
#

Do either LySSandre or Emma really want further copies or is 1/5 fine?

sweet parcel

1/5 is fine for both

echo crypt
#

remember need =/= want

elfin crypt
#

Aye

cunning fox
#

Also how’d you turn up the contrast? It’s so much easier to see that way

cunning fox
#

I was on Dark theme. I turned on the “darken at energy limit”

stark berry
#

Ah yes, that darkens the unusable tiles when the grid is complete

Do we know when Gloria expansion is coming?

#

1st March

shrewd sparrow
#

alright

#

updated

tired topaz
#

So, wanted to ask

#

How good is the 3/5 one?

opal sun
#

Currently have my Gloria have 3/5 and no plans to expand to 5/5, is this good or can you guys suggest some stuff to change?

sweet parcel
#

You can check the pins to compare yours vs suggested grid

opal sun
#

I already have the doc but it hasn't updated to reflect the new changes to Gloria & Zacian

sweet parcel
#

Oh right

#

I think it seems good, but i prefer Head Start over Adrenaline

opal sun
#

Hope I can still get the 2 MGRs in B-Blade with the grid, Zacian really eats a lot of GaugesRileyHaha

sweet parcel
#

In my experience Zacian is really gauge friendly

#

She has high speed + innate MGR4

#

I think only one MGR2 tile is enough

opal sun
#

I guess I have a different experience with her... I'll have those suggestions in mindShauntalNote
Thanks for the help and suggestionsMallowHeart

umbral juniper
#

Hi people, 1 question:
When's elesa/zebstrika's expanded grid coming?

vivid yoke
#

Tomorrow

umbral juniper
#

Nice

merry onyx
#

Is it now worth candying lance to 3/5?

vivid yoke
#

No but it is worth 2/5

#

Imo

#

3/5 seems only good if you want to sync with him

merry onyx
#

I thought his sync was now on par with zerena's

vivid yoke
#

2/5 is all you need if you want to bring a support to buff him and spam hyper beam. 3/5 is for sync nuke. 5/5 is if you want his trainer move to be functional

#

LanceShrug id rather bring support ex and sync with them and spam hyper beam

merry onyx
#

Thats fair

vivid yoke
#

But its fine. I havent looked at the numbers. Im sure his sync is plenty strong if u wanna go that route

#

I know im making mine 2/5 for sure

merry onyx
#

Yeah same, i've had him 1/5 since i got him since his 3/5 grid was just so atrocious

#

I'm a huge dragonite fan

vivid yoke
#

I just need to decide if i'm using the free champion select on him to 2/5 or if id rather use it on c.iris to get her 4/5 and gamble that her future grid expansion is worth it

#

Tech candies are at a premium compared to strike candies for me

tired topaz
#

Lance grid is amazing btw, he went from being just ok, to being actually crazy, which was needed.

#

Anyway, asking this again since I got no answer yet, how good is the 3/5 anabel grid in the doc?

spring belfry
#

i go for 4/5 for the PMUN stacks as an incentive for all those extra effort to set her up

stuck compass
#

is it just me or does ball guy have a very nice grid?

merry onyx
#

Do we have a date for lance and gloria's grid expansions?

#

Hey, uh, not to be "that guy", but when is Spark gonna update Kris and Feraligatr's Sync Grids?

quaint sleet
uncut vessel
#

Nope.

#

No, wait, they have been. I am dumb.

merry onyx
#

even if he hasnt kris' new grids are p straightforward

#

take haymaker. ez

stark berry
#

Gloria got nothing new at 3/5

#

And her current grid doesn't have much at 3/5

#

The 2/5 tiles are pretty good

#

Sad thing that even at 5/5 play rough is still stuck at 90 accuracy

#

At least now she has sharp entry 1 at 2/5 so at least Aaron is a reliable crit+accuracy buffer for her

sly fulcrum
#

Honestly questioning myself how did my gloria got to 2/5... I probably wasted a candy on her back in the days SophoKEK

bronze dragon
#

Not wasted anymore LucianScheme

stuck compass
#

Qn is it worth it to candy lance from 2->3/5 just for haymaker and that crit thingy on the right

bronze dragon
#

Yes

#

You also get accuracy check and sync nodes

merry onyx
#

it brings me great sadness how lance cant get all 6 sync tiles and haymaker

vivid yoke
#

When we get the champion ticket, I want some advice on what to pick. I have all 6 of the options already, so its a question of which one to get extra sync nodes

Cynthia 5/5, alder 4/5, c.iris 3/5, steven 2/5, diantha 1/5, and lance 1/5. Cynthia and Alder are not in question obviously.

The real decision for me is, do I pick Lance 2/5 because i know i want him at 2/5, or should I pick Iris 4/5 and gamble that her expansion in the future will be worth it

#

Striker candies are easier for me to spend, compared to tech candies

#

Which is really the only reason i ask. I know its hard to speculate on if iris 4/5+ will be worth it

silent dragon
#

mb for the ping 🫡

#

is it free or buyable

copper verge
echo crypt
#

this tbh, like, I'm picking Alder (assuming he is confirmed present in there) solely to easily stop HB from missing lol

sly fulcrum
#

I'm picking diantha for collection

echo crypt
#

I want to blast people in the face happily and without lame misses!

copper verge
#

Yeah and as mentioned in the question, what candies you can afford also plays a role so there is no definite answer

echo crypt
#

that's some wild mistyping right there in the end WEEZing

copper verge
#

Yeah I hate typing on phone PrycePain

#

Especially after some shots SophoKEK

echo crypt
vivid yoke
#

They are both "pretty neat" for me

copper verge
#

Then your case is relatively easy cause your iris doesn't change with an extra lvl while your lance gets a lot with it

#

So probably just pick it and enjoy your time

clever thorn
#

Assuming that iris will get a lot at 4/5 specifically is also a bit of a stretch

copper verge
#

It's more than a stretch, it's pure speculation and by that time you don't even know what state of the game, your account, your enjoyment etc..

fading gulch
#

honestly ciris’s base kit is still fine

#

she just needs like uh

#

the atk version of satisfied snarl

#

and she’d be nicer to use imo

#

cuz you’d have to dedicate yourself to one atk stat at a time

echo crypt
#

huh?

#

she has it already...

fading gulch
#

wait she does?

copper verge
#

Again it doesn't matter

#

The person asking as her 3/5

echo crypt
#

Breaking Swipe doesn't work for you?

copper verge
#

4/5 won't change anything atm

fading gulch
#

not the move equivalent

copper verge
#

Except a little extra BP which is whatever and doesn't deserve a scout

fading gulch
#

sorry if that wasnt clear

echo crypt
#

Double Drop and Breaking Swipe

#

-2 attack there, or do you mean you want -3?

copper verge
#

Again speculation is worthless here

merry onyx
#

How worth it is TSE1 really on melony? Her tm already buffs +1 crit and all the grids in the doc pick up MPR for it so is it really worth all the energy it takes to go its route?

bronze dragon
#

Depends on your team

#

If you need her to give +3 spatk then just use TM MPR

#

If not, just pick TSE1

merry onyx
#

Ah gotcha

uncut vessel
#

Can't wait for the new Gloria and Zacian grids.

bronze dragon
#

It's pretty much this and pick whatever you like with remaining 7 energy

uncut vessel
#

I have her 3/5.

#

So I can't yet.

bronze dragon
#

Then what grid are you waiting for? gp_WorryWeird

#

3/5 is terrible

#

I guess the CS2 at 2/5 helps

uncut vessel
#

For Spark to update the 3/5 Grids.

bronze dragon
uncut vessel
#

Also, hypothetically speaking, if I were to run Leon as a Hurricane User, what grid should I run for him?

bronze dragon
#

Pick all Hurricane BP nodes and Burn Synergy 3

#

There's nothing else related to Hurricane

stark berry
bronze dragon
#

Yeah I just dont like ontype based skills

#

I dont think its smart to make units 5/5 just to massacre hard that 1/17th part of the content you already massacred

stark berry
#

Yes for offtype that grid is fine

#

However i don't think there's an universal grid

#

But for 5/5 i would say it depends if on type or offtype

bronze dragon
#

The grid I posted is universal

#

Super Preparation 9 is not universal

#

You can change Sharp Entry 1 if you need the energy and your team is giving you +3 crit anyways

tired topaz
#

@spring belfry your 4/5 anabel grid also has the infinite field stuff?

stuck compass
#

Torchic's grid feels rather meh. Anyone has a suggestion on what to use?

#

I was thinking of this but it's more for LG than anything else

bronze dragon
#

It's what you said, it's mainly a LG support grid

stuck compass
#

Ah WhitneySad

placid heart
#

Mchic isn’t bulky enough for 2K I think

stark berry
#

Maybe def and spdef +20 to increase bulk

#

The rest is gauntlet utility

bronze dragon
#

Quick Tempo kills your quad queue

stuck compass
#

I find quick tempo kinda bad imo, it starts too early for most teams. Catalytic is nuch better imo for csmm

clever thorn
#

It’s good if you plan to start attacking really early on

#

If you have adren or denial or whatever, quad queues are unnecessary

stark berry
echo crypt
#

like any other field effect expiring right when you are about to sync

fading gulch
#

it lasts for 45 seconds meaning it expires right as you sync which means the enemy queues a move

echo crypt
#

it's the same reason you ideally shouldn't use a TM with MGA turn 1

#

unless whoever is going to sync has Adrenaline

stark berry
#

You could still extend MGA on turn 3

echo crypt
#

sure, if you have someone to do so in that particular team

stark berry
#

However if my support is ex i Don't care much about quad queue

#

I generally clear stages way before my second sync

#

At least for MM

fading gulch
#

thats a bit of a conundrum isnt it

stark berry
#

C calem has propulsion 9 in the 3/5 grid

#

Maybe he could sync before it expires

fading gulch
#

oh mines not 3/5 😂

#

um then i guess i cant quad queue with em

stark berry
#

I feel like c calem is one of those units that really appreciate 3/5

fading gulch
#

he really does

echo crypt
#

you can also just wait until turn 2 to use his TM

stark berry
#

At least he will max crit at 3/5 if used as a general support

bronze dragon
#

Entry field effects run out at the time you usually sync, letting a time gap for opponent to queue

#

You need -2 or -3 countdown to balance

fading gulch
#

yeah i know why that stops quad queue im just saying i cant manage it atm because i only have one support candy

#

and idk if im so keen on using an omni candy on him

stark berry
#

Yes I'm dry on support candies too

#

I guess i will use Omni on supports

echo crypt
#

again, use his TM turn 2, you can attack turn 1 to advance the bmove unlock

bronze dragon
#

For Ch Calem it's not a problem, just TM turn 2

stark berry
#

I feel like supports are the ones that need their grids the most

fading gulch
#

for me its techs

#

literally every tech ive candied just felt underwhelming at base

#

diantha is like the first one that has a mostly coherent kit that doesnt miss anything besides even more nuke

#

oh and i guess ss steven

#

but i also really like having soften up

stark berry
#

SS Steven and dojo Gloria i think are the only techs that i have candied

#

And anni N too

fading gulch
#

ive candied anni n ssrc and ss steven

#

anni n just has like

#

ok spread dps

stark berry
#

Wanted that pep rally on anni N

fading gulch
#

ssrc debuffing is so goddamn slow

#

without oar on shadow ball

#

and ss steven has soften up

#

like i mentioned

stark berry
#

I just use renegade Cynthia for DPS and ghost zone

fading gulch
#

yeah i do have lucian for spdef debuffs now

#

but i didnt have him when i first got her

stark berry
#

I'm thinking of giving candies to t bolt red

#

He's still op at 1/5 but at 3/5 will be busted

#

Ash is fine at 1/5, his b tbolt still obliterates anything

stark berry
#

Plus furious brain was a nice multiplier

#

Only sad thing about his grid is that it lacks vigilance

#

Defense form would have loved vigilance on grid

#

Ok that i mostly use attack form and sometimes speed form

primal wasp
#

So what are the thoughts on Bede? Since he has Vig innately, I was wondering if it's an idea to give him Revenge Boost 4 or if that's less valuable than something like Head Start 1 since he might want to confuse the opponent

#

Maybe Impervious since that seems like a good strat too for a Tank

fading gulch
primal wasp
#

Currently what I have

fading gulch
#

also get entry freebie

#

imo

primal wasp
#

Cool cool

#

I don't think Entry Freebie is what I want with a confusion Tank Build

#

Maybe if I changed it up to be focused on freeze instead

fading gulch
#

i mean its if you want to use tm on entry

#

imo thats a really strong buff too

bronze dragon
#

That's borderline a nerf

#

HS1 is the way to go, HH or an Immunity if you're going underdog

placid heart
#

Youd also only use confusion to prock another units multipliers and not for the chance of the enemy hitting themselves as most stages have lessen confusion 9

bronze dragon
#

Well Bede himself has other benefits from confusing opponent

#

Heals and gauge recovery

placid heart
#

I see

stark berry
#

I guess headstart 1 is probably the best

#

Guess i will start using deluxe lucky cookies until i will get a good skill

#

Healthy healing may be a decent option too

I wish I had any Deluxe Cookies but all I did was throw them at my SS Erika

how do you use zapdos at 1/5 vs 3/5

sly fulcrum

I'm guessing Bede is top 3

im thinking bede from 1->3/5 just gets extra bulk from heals etc?

sly fulcrum
#

There's no difference for zapdos at 1/5 or 3/5

#

Just nuke harder

stuck compass
#

im gg for 3/5 for marnie because of aggravation 2 but im not sure if its a good idea

From what ropalme mentions, Bede is higher than NCalem, so I guess top 2

I don't think any of them are gonna overcome Ash, Morty, and Red. But they're all very close imo

and its refreshable every sync

signal saddle
#

This is good summary about Bede

sly fulcrum
#

His B move and TM despite limited use gets refreshed each time a sync happens with his unique passive

#

I've been convinced to just go for 1/5 for everyone this datamine SophoKEK

#

Wish me luck

stuck compass
#

its quite cool that this is the 1st tm that costs 4 gauge

signal saddle
#

Also, he has very good sync accel, better than some supports in top subgroup afaik. I appreciate that a lot personally.

stuck compass
#

that's good for using with the b move that also gets refreshed?

signal saddle
#

Yeah

sly fulcrum
#

I still think marnie is a need 3/5 kinda

echo crypt
#

Bmove gives free move next, so his TM can be used "for free" after

signal saddle
#

Bede is least reliant on grid for sure, but idt Marnie needs 3/5

sly fulcrum
#

I guess it's not need but feels like it's a lot to miss out without 3/5

echo crypt
#

For nuking mostly, as usual

#

At least her grid is definitely much better than Bede's

sly fulcrum
#

That juicy aggravation 2 tho

It's nice that she has bmove, so even without nuking, she can still clear sides

if you are new, dont grid Marnie

grid other pairs at higher move level first

I ended up going for marnie and making her 3/5. With propulsion and her passive, she can shave off a turn of sync countdown by herself with Head Start lucky skill

Teambuilding 101:

Step 1: pick a damage dealer ( StrikeP / StrikeS or Tech with high damage)

  • take a look at their moveset; note what they buff themselves in terms of offensive stats (Critical Hit Rate, Speed, Attack for physical damage dealer / Special Attack for special damage dealer)

Step 2: picking appropriate Support for your damage dealer

  • take a look at your Support through the filter option and the Known Moves tab and pick two teammates that fill in what your damage dealer is missing (Critical Hit Rate, Speed, Attack for physical damage dealer / Special Attack for special damage dealer )

Addendum: if your damage dealer's needs can be filled in with only one support, then your third team slot is more flexible and you can choose defensive Support (potions, buffing defenses, lowering attack) or a second damage dealer

Does champion marnie need 3/5 grid or is 2/5 grid good enough?

For C Marnie do I want the sync grid buff grid or the utility grid? I’m trynna go for making my moves powerful which is why I already gridded the utility grid but the reason on why I’m asking is because I do start syncing with Marnie after I sync with an Ex support. Just to get that double sync buff

#

So I’m wondering if it’s necessary

copper verge
#

You don't really need anything in particular then, most classic content will end through EX Support into B move honestly

clever thorn
#

Wait, you used the utility grid to focus on damage MarleyWhat

copper verge
#

For longer stages / self-challenges, just see if you need a bit more of Nuke power to end the stage or extra utility to ease the clear

#

Well both grid are dmg grids regardless tbf

I think he meant No Nuke Vs With Nuke

which well, only depends if you need/plan to nuke or not right 😅

Oh Gloria got a grid expansion eh?

Oh wtf she has Steel Rebuff but it only works once?

#

I mean it’s a Rebuff but it’s not stackable and also it can only be applied to one target?

bronze dragon
#

It's a striker

#

It's already surprising a striker applies rebuff, all the previous ones have been techs

There is Alister

gentle sun

That’s true, we do have 1 Support who applies rebuff

bronze dragon

True true, forgot about him

sweet parcel
primal wasp
#

His rebuff is good too

#

This one is not as good so they must plan on adding more Rebuffs down the line

bronze dragon

It's your standard rebuff appliance

#

I guess he doesn't lower speed like Gordie does for example

#

Gloria is a striker so it makes sense she doesn't excel applying rebuff

Qn does Brodie have any meaningful 2/5 build? All those multipliers on a st 2bar attack feels v meh

bronze dragon

Who's Brodie? WEEZing

I was thinking the same

#

Sound like Gordie ig

stuck compass
#

Oh Gordie yes

stark berry
#

Gordie 2/5 grid is pretty useless, he gets good stuffs at 3/5 but his 1/5 base kit is still serviceable

#

You won't use him as a DPS regardless

#

With 3/5 you can run a sync nuke grid (and is a pretty strong nuke too)

#

At 1/5 or 2/5 you can still use him for the rebuff and eventually for sun or max move nuking

#

But at 3/5 he gets +100 BP on max moves (and that's a nice buff)

stuck compass
#

Ty, yeah I'm having a hard time finding a place for him

fading gulch

ironically enough being a rock type he works best to support a fire team

Nobody has infinite rebuffs

For some reason that wud be too op

#

Idgi either dw

echo crypt
#

well, not really, it caps at -3 anyway

stark berry
#

It still caps at -3 and -3 isn't much stronger than -2

stuck compass
#

And I guess 2-3 isn't that big

fading gulch
#

its a 10% damage increase from 2 to 3 anyway i dont get why they just uncap it

echo crypt
#

the one pair that has it "infinite" is SS Hilbert

stuck compass
#

Oh?

#

Oh yeah

stark berry
echo crypt
#

as in, he can apply it to everyone without MP restrictions

#

that's what I mean

#

hence the quotes

stark berry
#

Infinite for villa i guess

stuck compass
#

5x on latias/latios I guess? Or does it need weakness

stark berry
#

As long as the units have those weaknesses

bronze dragon
#

1.6/1.5 = 1.0666

fading gulch
#

oh so effective increase

stark berry
fading gulch
#

i just meant it went from 50% to 60% more damage taken

echo crypt
#

yes, only one bar, once a boss changes bar the rebuff goes away

stark berry
#

However i find that Gordie 1/5 is still a really strong utility unit for fire teams

#

Sun + 2 stacks of rebuffs is very useful

bronze dragon
#

Imo it doesn't justify a spot over a top fire damage dealer like SS Hilda, SS Red, Leon, Anni N

#

But yes his base kit supports fire types well enough

stark berry
#

I mean you run it alongside one of them

fading gulch
#

is anni n really top tier still

bronze dragon
echo crypt
#

you'd definitely not use Gordie in the slightest if you have SS Morty

stark berry
#

Gordie has headstart 1 In grid

#

Leon has -1 sync on tm

#

Add a support with headstart 1 and you can sync 1 turn earlier

stuck compass
bronze dragon
fading gulch
#

ig but isnt that because of piercing blows and extend range

#

his nuke is annoying to setup without ghetsis imo

bronze dragon
#

You mean extend range?

bronze dragon
stark berry
#

He's really efficient at clearing the sides of you don't run striker ex

fading gulch
#

well ss red go brr

stark berry
#

His nuke is strong but not the easiest to setup

fading gulch
#

if only he got whatever the special equivalent of relentless was

bronze dragon
#

Why would he

stark berry
#

AOE spdef debuffs on top of great AOE DPS is really nice

fading gulch
#

mind games 9

stuck compass
#

He's kinda strong as he is

stark berry
#

And at 3/5 he gets pep rally too

fading gulch
#

would at least be easier to set up than devastation and power posture

bronze dragon
stuck compass
#

But I feel MR does a similar amount of DPS for some reason.

fading gulch
echo crypt
#

right, my bad

fading gulch
#

while also doing damage

bronze dragon
#

SS Red's sync is not easy to set up, unless you run a less synergistic support

stark berry
#

His tm gives MGA so if you add the team speed buffs it becomes a good thing for gauges, considering he's a 4 gauge user

fading gulch
#

noble roar just forces him into a passive role

stuck compass
#

Solve it by bringing his daddy

fading gulch
#

yes

#

thats what i said earlier

#

its annoying to set up without ghetsis

bronze dragon
#

Then his daddy is the one going passive

fading gulch
#

like

#

i tried using champ iris

#

a bit with him

#

but then i realize it just sucks as much because iris only debuffs one stat at a time

bronze dragon
#

The debuffs are only worth doing on one target

#

Sides are dying inevitably by Blue Flare

fading gulch
#

yeah thats also true

#

i swear people overrate 1/5 ciris so much

#

i have had her for an entire year and like besides latias shes useless

stark berry
#

The nuke is single target so not really worth debuffing everyone

bronze dragon
#

Back then she was the best debuffer for spatk and atk

#

It's been 2 years

stark berry
#

Guess she may be useful for stuffs like Alder 1st nuke

fading gulch
#

her base kit isnt that good though

#

spatk and atk drops arent that valuable imo outside of setting up multipliers

#

because its better to just buff defense

bronze dragon
#

I don't know what you've seen around but pretty sure most people think C Iris needs 3/5

fading gulch
#

and i violently disagree

#

because she debuffs

#

also alder also has debuffs and actually has damage

bronze dragon
fading gulch
#

so like

#

wtf is this argument

stark berry
#

Ciris debuffs faster i guess

bronze dragon
fading gulch
#

no it was in #poma-questions too

#

like i had to explain why ciris is shitty at 1/5

bronze dragon
#

Then it doesn't count either SophoKEK

fading gulch
#

well damn i guess you’re right

#

anyway uhhh

#

how did we get here again

stark berry
#

Karen can do her job for special aoe

fading gulch
#

satisfied snarl yep

stark berry
#

Darach for physical

#

If you need both, then anni n can do it

bronze dragon
#

She is valuable because of role compression, but in practice her debuffs are not much better than a f2p level unit because most times you only make use of half of her debuffs

#

And she doesn't debuff fast enough for power play units

stark berry
#

Her DPS is usable but there are better f2p options

#

Her debuffs are usable but there are alternatives in the general pool

#

The only extra thing she has is the 3/5 nuke

fading gulch
#

also the other thing i see is people recommending 1/5 cynthia for lodge

bronze dragon
#

Damn that's pretty cursed

#

Cynthia has 0 value if not 3+/5

fading gulch
#

yes and they say favs over meta

#

which is just

#

what

#

i have said multiple times that you are picking someone who has 0 worth at 1/5 for lodge is insanely stupid

echo crypt
#

well, that's the zen mentality fully cranked

bronze dragon
#

If it was a fav reason they'd tell you to make Cynthia at least 3/5

fading gulch
#

yeah they just say pick her for lodge and im just

#

💀

#

its not like lodge cynthia is that good either

bronze dragon
#

I don't understand why someone would have Cynthia as fav, scout her 1/5 to use her and be extremely disappointed

echo crypt
#

like, I'd only mention 1/5 Cynthia if they happen to not care for absolutely anyone in there, regardless of what boost they get with more copies

fading gulch
#

isnt naomi just deadass better than 1/5 cynthia

echo crypt
#

yes

bronze dragon
#

For sure

fading gulch
#

insane

stark berry
bronze dragon
#

Ok but she's not good either

#

If you're gonna recommend something like:
-try multis on her because you can get lodge Cynthia!
-use your champion pick instead of expanded alder or Lance
Then idk what to say

stark berry
#

Personally i prefer getting extra limited units over saving a candy

bronze dragon
#

It depends which ones

#

I'd rather go from 3/5 to 4/5 Anni Raihan than get a new F Morty you know

#

And a 1/5 Cynthia is F Morty levels of useless

stark berry
#

Yes 1/5 Cynthia is pretty bad

fading gulch
#

*dogshit

#

her base kit is uh very not good

stark berry
#

Probably she's still usable with 6ex ingo

bronze dragon
#

If by usable you mean you can click her moves then yes

fading gulch
#

usable with 6ex ingo

#

at that point why would i not just use naomi lol

stark berry
#

I mean better than hapu

echo crypt
#

I'd rather not be forced to carry a bad unit

fading gulch
#

and dont say new players dont have her

#

cuz shes just shitty at 1/5

bronze dragon
stark berry
#

Most good ground types are limited

fading gulch
#

yeah cynthia is limited and still sucks without move levels

But the champion select doesn't have other ground types

bronze dragon
#

Zinnia, f2p ex striker, does a better job in ground weak stages than a 1/5 Cynthia on-type

#

So I can't take the type point seriously

stark berry
#

Personally i picked Diantha because i Was missing her

#

Not the bestest, but at 1/5 she's still probably my strongest fairy DPS

bronze dragon
#

Well that's more of a gem resource management thing

stark berry
#

It was a free scout so gems weren't involved

bronze dragon
#

But for me it's better to have a selection of units at 3/5 unlocked at full potential and fully satisfied than having most at 1/5 being all restricted

stark berry
#

But still you save a candy not 2

#

Plus i guess you will get like a free 6ex from lodge

#

And some candy coins too

#

So not even a full candy saved

#

And lodge Cynthia isn't as useless as regular 1/5 Cynthia

bronze dragon
#

Yeah but the point is the alternatives, the options you're not picking by doing that

#

You could go from 2/5 to 3/5 Lance, or Alder from 3/5 to 4/5
I prefer those over the Cynthia route

stark berry
#

Or maybe you can save 2 candies and get a really solid ground type unit

bronze dragon
#

That's the select part, if someone is telling you to spend gems on Cynthia banner to get a lodge pair then that's madness

stark berry
#

I'm talking about the freebie

#

Not about spending gems

#

Then Lance and alder dupes are better than getting a new Cynthia

stark berry
#

Depends what's the point of the game

#

If it's just for meta then probably she's worthless

#

If it's to collect new units then is worth

fading gulch
#

most people asking are asking for a meta reason

#

in which case cynthia is complete ass unless you are candying her 3/5 asap

bronze dragon
#

Pretty sure whoever is just looking to collect her they already had a chance to scout her in these 3 years of permanent reruns

stark berry
#

I mean lodge Cynthia can help in gauntlet

fading gulch
#

gauntlet

echo crypt
#

I mean, the percentage of people that actually cares is not very high

#

Gauntlet is fairly niche

stark berry
#

I mean for most people everything is a cakewalk

bronze dragon
#

Most people do 10-20 wins

stark berry
#

(everything but lodge Ed ebe)

fading gulch
#

you get new units to make shit easier

#

cynthia really doesnt help that much in that regard at 1/5

bronze dragon
#

1 support per win, I can name like 40 supports better than L Cynthia easy

stark berry
#

Depends even on the roster

bronze dragon
#

She doesn't even fulfill any particular checkbox to counter LG, she just debuffs speed

stark berry
#

I mean if someone has SS serena I don't thinking really needs 3/5 lance

bronze dragon
#

You're too focused on typing

#

Lance is a brilliant damage dealer that can carry any stage

#

Tank + gimmick check unit + Lance beats any LG

#

Lance helps more towards content than L Cynthia

stark berry
#

But lance to be really strong needs 5/5 not 3/5

bronze dragon
#

Fake

fading gulch
#

3/5 already has multipliers

#

5/5 has self buffs

#

but even so he has ramp up and critical focus

#

iirc

#

at 3/5

bronze dragon
#

Critical eye 1

stark berry
#

I mean for gauntlet you won't use his tm if you won't recover the hp

bronze dragon
#

The only reason to use his TM is if he's 4+/5

#

To get his self buffs

#

And he has potion, so you don't even need to worry

#

If you have a good support then the upgrade from 3/5 to 5/5 is rather meaningless for Lance

stark berry
#

But still, few people have 2/5 lance so you still need to use a candy regardless

bronze dragon
#

2/5 is already giving furious brain

stark berry
#

Yes but still needs Sabrina to fix his kit

bronze dragon
#

Huh?

stark berry
#

He needs accuracy, spa and full crit at 2/5
