Vantner's Clears (CSMM, EBE, Gauntlet, Faves Talk)

[glass plaza]

please do not retaliate with guilt tripping, that is not fair

you should not turtle when your opinion is being fairly challenged

you put yourself in a self made handicap then made claims which i found unfair and properly argued in return

[granite kettle]

So saying a person opinion is wrong when he using the unit even 3/5 and saying his opinion when doing a faves run with his palmer+gladion and saying its hard because params that give advantage on ontype is more easier than doing offtype

[glass plaza]

i never explicitely said your opinion is wrong, i argued it for the sake of dialogue and offering a different perspective

[granite kettle]

Maybe you should ask the guy when he is in your thread instead of barging and say people opinion is wrong based on their experience and said that their experience is bad due to wrong team composition, wrong params and skill issues like turn denial and stuffs

Sorry that i have slow fingers

[glass plaza]

You're really overreacting and being childish, there were no such claims, stop overthinking this

We do not censor anybody from sharing their views and opinions in a civil manner

[granite kettle]

Ok we should end this convo here instead of dragging on, later i will be called childish

[granite kettle]

I think im pretty civil, people can read the whole convo, i wont delete it

I don't mind even if mods arrived

[glass plaza]

There is no cause for mods to act whatsoever

[granite kettle]

From the start, i just said what i experienced when using Palmer

[errant pond]

Hey hey yall should calm down here. Each person has their own playstyle. As long as their playstyle wont bother you or anyone lets end this here

[granite kettle]

If people have better experience then good, is it my fault if i discouraged people, at least i said it in my thread

Thanks Gakon.

[indigo glade]

Woah nice post, thanks for the detail explanation and the video. Yeah regigigas is pretty strong and it is actually pretty fun to use to the point I constantly feel tempted to candy him to 3/5. But just a bit sad that on LG his damage would be pretty bad. However on CS he sure is can off type most of the league im pretty sure of it

[glass plaza]

My philosophy on candy is basically if you test out the pair extensively in content and it works it probably doesn't need candies unless you really want something specific out of the grid to enable some specific comps or the pair needs it for viability which nowadays i think is pretty rare.

But teambuilding and certain strats can go a long way to bypass that too!

In Palmer's case his grid does offer quite a lot of interesting tools imo, the obvious Furious Brawn with an almost uncondtional 30% damage increase on moves, the Max Countdown 2 to help with his passive condition faster, the Combo Freebie 2 to enable dual damage teams, Catalyst for gauge issues (not that i'd pick that lol, you want the support to have this). Not to mention Haymaker for nuke purposes (but most runs seem to end before needing this). All that to say his grid is pretty worth imo.
But again first it's important to assess the 1/5 in content see with your prefered teams how it performs and if those tools are needed. Regigigas is really strong after all.

[indigo glade]

Haha yea palmer is actually can do CS at 1/5 it is just that im itching for more from him, it is weird maybe i dont realize that he is a fave lol. This happens too with ss wally, doesnt rated high but i just yolo candied him, turns out he is just a fave for me

[granite kettle]

Nice Psychic special cs, among my faves types, Psychic have the most faves with 10 faves so easier to make the team. Entering it blindly, and i thus i dont know why kahili so tanky and had to clear it post sync, thank you DeNa...finally i have more kanto faves, its been forever with only mewtwo and mew, thanks zapdos for being a nice support
Team 2 has 2 pasio psychic fave
Team 3 has 2 kanto psychic fave
Team 4 has 2 alola psychic fave
Team 5 has 2 hoenn psychic fave

[granite kettle]

R1-Getting my Eusine to 2/5 today does help with his tm gauge management thus accommodating a bunch of big gauge consumers is easier for ssKris
R2-Not sure if using Evelyn or SsMorty better, but NcLeaf already does sun with her buddy move and syncing with her is nice for additional fire rebuff, fire teamwork is an icing on the cake in a team of Fire MF pairs.
R3-i did with my 2/5 ssMina first and she failed to carry the team especially when she is kinda bad in giving crit to the team also with gauge as recasting weather cost gauge and her rain boost siebold water damage, changed to my 2/5 NcBlue and it is no longer a problem. Cannot wait for 1 more support coin to 3/5 him.
R4-sync move half countdown, had to do dragon zone fast, heck i cannot even do thousand wave but zerena still kills em, cannot wait to give her role cake later
R5-im impressed, gladion multi attack deals a bunch of damage due to pmun+poison zone, the smun from NcBede also allows FallIris for laser go brrrr

[granite kettle]

I should use Hop as tank for steel weak, i didnt read that Grimsley E4 is a physical attacker... didn't know that his bite damages scjasmine a lot ...other teams are nice, tested the rei and akari gears this time but man, they didn't show critastrophe after sync text from rei gear or crit strike 2% from akari gear. Well subtle changes will make me less likely to play skill gear lotto so that helps i guess.

Oh right candying Eusine to 2/5 is one of my best decision...free move entry for no gauge tm, also SE buff and move gauge accel after beating any enemy

And atmospheric acceleration

[granite kettle]

Still waiting for a fairy damage dealer fave to help with fairy coverage, although annilillie or gladion can clear it, they are not really fairy type

[last sail]

SS Lillie and Magearna

[granite kettle]

Yep also Cogita and Enamorus

It will be late to post Gauntlet teams, thanks to Registeel being late

[granite kettle]

Done i think, not sure what team to make so i just send my types teams. Well except fairy and poison as fairy still lacking a damage dealer and there's only 1 fave for poison, need at least 2 pairs to make a good team so no poison.

[granite kettle]

Ok done

[granite kettle]

I forgot to post the clear for this week, taking hleon for a walk...its been a while since i last used him, sad some types are still not be able to form monotype faves team...hope more support faves will appear in the future, bp master pairs being free and legendaries really came clutch to bolster my roster, hope that i can 3/5 Dana soon, i will be able to 2/5 her next month

[granite kettle]

Hope i can do more monotype faves team in the future, still lacking for few more types like normal, bug, ghost, fairy, dark, poison, ground. Hope DeNa will release support faves for these types oh and a fairy damage dealer fave

[granite kettle]

Final week before the 15k CS, hope i can still clear it hopium for more poison fave to come soon

[granite kettle]

15k csmm with faves done, urgh poison still need some boost also if i have 3/5 Dana, Registeel and 4/5 Gloria it will be nicer ...swapped Solgaleo with Gloria because it's weak to earthquake , i wonder how it be for harder region cs later in the future

[flint jasper]

Shiny Eternatus as a Poison type plz DeNA

[granite kettle]

Poison nihilego and iron moth too

[flint jasper]

I forgot about Nihilego. Plz DeNA

[granite kettle]

Oh right, all fight got half hp params to fill 3k points

I forgot about it and my first ssdawn run dead due to her tm recoil

[flint jasper]

Rip

[granite kettle]

Chezei, i have mix red...im a whale now

[flint jasper]

Even I don't have mix Red yet

Does that mean I'm not a whale

[granite kettle]

You are F2P because still didn't have any paywall pair

[flint jasper]

exactly

[granite kettle]

You gonna try to get him?

[flint jasper]

Yeah, I'm pulling on the banner. I've only gotten SS May from it and I already had her at 5/5

I wanna do some fun clears with Red

[granite kettle]

Just use your redlax

[flint jasper]

I'm bad at using Redlax

[granite kettle]

Ok redchu

[flint jasper]

I'm even bad at using NC Red I'm just bad

[granite kettle]

So why you think you will be good on using mixred ?

[flint jasper]

Fair I won't be, but I'll try!

[granite kettle]

Good luck chezei

[flint jasper]

Thanks

[granite kettle]

I just gonna do 50 points monthly on mixup but now that i have redsaur, i can bail early

Gonna wait for next mix pair in 5+ months

[barren falcon]

Do you have gauge in round 2?

[wheat grove]

we can't be friends

[granite kettle]

Yes, because Registeel tm gives mga and his metal claw give team speed buff

And even better its 1/5 registeel...im candying Dana first

[errant pond]

its funny that your Iris needs double support but you are still not satisfied with her

what move level is her?

[granite kettle]

Oh i did a run before this but its totaled at 14.9k and that run have iris plus gladion, but then i had to take physical damage reduction 8 and gladion like contribute nothing so i change to ssdawn the second time

I satisfied with her just i hope there's another poison fave so that she can just focus on poison zone and spamming hyper beam

[granite kettle]

3/5

A poison nihilego will be nice

[granite kettle]

Oh I forgot to post about Fire HSE

[errant pond]

quite surprised to see some EX non faves of yours

[granite kettle]

Yep i thought that i already made them 5* 20/20 before might as well just EX them although only faves get level 150 treatment

[errant pond]

[barren falcon]

When did you pull Tina?

[lament carbon]

Day 1

Vantner pulling Tina helped me decide to pull for her as well

[granite kettle]

Well because i thought she will be as rare as rachel and sawyer, I didn't expect all of them are a permanent addition in mix scout

[lament carbon]

Eh mix scout is horrendous I have no luck there so far

[granite kettle]

I just gonna do 50 points max monthly but as i got mix red, so thats 250 points of paid gems saved

[lament carbon]

[granite kettle]

Quite late today, was being careful to avoid lacking only 100 points like last CS ...darn lorelei, her 1 stack evasion feels like +6 evasion

Oh also i forgot that NC Bede is weak to ghost he died in 2 hits

Also 3 fire birbs

[wheat grove]

my CBede survived quite a few hits but then again I hadn't had ghost zone up and I only got hit by like, 1 shadow ball

and the rest were relatively weak moves

[granite kettle]

Im boosting the enemies with ssrcynthia and victrier

[granite kettle]

I dreaded the day for 15k of harder regions

[granite kettle]

Not sure why, lorelei feels tanky this week

[flint jasper]

Might be her evasion

[lament carbon]

[granite kettle]

Or because i pick wrong param for scdiantha, i still don't fully understand the special attack move but based on defense thingy

[granite kettle]

Oh right, i didn't use him this week

[granite kettle]

A bit late because im busy with another mobile game alola 15k, kinda manageable if i do monotype full physical/special team

[granite kettle]

Im late but its still a fave run, although i only gonna do 10 streaks due to laziness

[lament carbon]

10 and out

[granite kettle]

Yep, well i might redo it after i get Nc Rosa

[granite kettle]

Final week before NC Rosa cannot wait to kick ssmina from that bug team and change to Meloetta

[errant pond]

Good luck on pulling her

[granite kettle]

Thanks although i will be strong and not try to get her dupe...i need to be rational, its hard to get dupe for master fair...better i just use yellow candy later

[granite kettle]

Special CS 15k faves run

[errant pond]

[granite kettle]

Waiting for Meloetta, its harsh to use ssdawn for 15k cs nowadays as i choose half hp param

[granite kettle]

Woohoo another psychic support MF, also finally a support fave from Unova

[errant pond]

how do you feel about her kit after trying out?

[granite kettle]

Hurm i kinda dislike the random stat when using relic song, well 3/5 might be better with guaranteed def spdef buffs but the random stats is just like summer tate

Oh i also like that it isn't that hard for her to support either psychic or fighting
Psychic team i just : tm > tm > relic song > teeter dance > sync > spam relic song
Fighting team: relic song > tm > tm > teeter dance > sync > spam relic song

Teeter dance as i plan to get curative confusion grid for more sustain

I dont see myself using sing much

[errant pond]

Yeah she has a busy kit already

Thanks for your insights

[granite kettle]

I rather they make relic song give 2 spatk in aria forme and 2 atk in piruorette form than being totally random. Easier to manage

[granite kettle]

Managed to clear 15k cs for sinnoh forgot to use Blacephalon because i want to do mono type damage team so i use physical fire team

[granite kettle]

Elec weak aaron cleared, steel weak bertha nightmare left

[granite kettle]

Steel weak bertha has fallen, but not sure if its due to the field effects of reducing physical damage for both teams

[granite kettle]

A bit late, i hope there's a new poison fave and fairy fave anytime soon, need at least 2 faves for the type (also one of them is a damage dealer at least) for me to have easier clear

[granite kettle]

Another great week without any fairy or poison weak cs, thanks DeNa for releasing a strong fairy damage dealer fave although i need to wait till 19th, now only poison left for good fave unit type coverage

[flint jasper]

Iron Moth when

[granite kettle]

Pecharunt and the trio , nihilego too...just give me anything poison

[flint jasper]

Nihilego for Alola NC

[barren falcon]

These count as legendaries?

[flint jasper]

Vantner counts the paradox pokémon and ultra beasts as faves too

[granite kettle]

Yep cannot be bias, koraidon and miraidon are paradoxes

Also those paradox legendary beasts and swords of justice

[granite kettle]

Faves only Monotype gauntlet runs, im out of monotype teams unless Magearna arrives before gauntlet ends

[last sail]

Be careful, the solo enthusiasts will come after you

[lament carbon]

Heck, the duo enthusiasts might follow

[granite kettle]

Im too lazy to do solo, duo

Actually there's another type that has 3 remaining pairs which is dragon but i doubt ssleon/cyrus/zinnia can tank

[bleak swan]

was gonna say it could just maybe barely work but that’s only the case with Latios, which you don’t have access to for clear 15

[granite kettle]

Yep i guess i will just wait for magearna, i think sycamore+ssmina+ssgladion can beat cobalion

[lament carbon]

Now can you clear BR with only your favs

[granite kettle]

Cannot, not enough sprint and field and the type and team boosts might clash with the roles

Can clear but i rather not to get low points and waste passes

[lament carbon]

You should remember to use the limited time ones before they expire

[granite kettle]

I already finished using all passes, hope they give more than just 1 weekly, kinda need more passes if the run has bad roles rng...im afraid to press quit as it might consume the pass and give me 0 points if i did it

[granite kettle]

I forgot that I haven't yet upload csmm clear pic, need few resets to clear fairy weak...not sure why sycamore, ssmina, annilillie didn't work had to ditch him for play rough gloria ...cannot wait for ssgladion so that i can ditch these makeshift fairy damage dealer pairs

[granite kettle]

Week before ssgladion, buzzma gaming too

[granite kettle]

Not sure why i use solgaleo against glacia, he does like 2 digits of damage ...it will be better if i use registeel instead, anyway smtate carry

Also ncrosa is such a missing puzzle piece, she made my bug team tankier and covers their crit buff demands

[flint jasper]

[granite kettle]

[granite kettle]

Gauntlet runs updated, 16 streaks with monotype faves teams

[barren falcon]

The end is always a double Latios

Hard to believe you had the units to do this!

[granite kettle]

Thank you aurochs, im excited for anni, as 2 type teamwork can potentially add 2 more teams...plus in the last team, sskorrina has higher def stats than victrier, at first i thought of using him as sacrificial lamb

Oh evasion buffs on sskorrina helps as well

[granite kettle]

70 energy kinda helps, i can put recuperation and impervious on Sycamore

But its too expensive currently, i only unlocked for 9 5/5 fave pairs...

[granite kettle]

Now i can clear fairy weak with ease ...DeNa where's my other poison faves?

My gladion can activate lots of grid now that he has 70 energy

[granite kettle]

Use 2 of my new 5/5 pairs...sshilbert and ssdawn are now 5/5 ...hilbert aim go brrrr

[granite kettle]

More poison fave when?

[granite kettle]

Tempted to give ssrcynthia cake as she died to a rock slide this week, but i will wait for datamine first...kinda nice run, hopefully i can do faves monotype teams in the future for types that are currently unable to monotype

[granite kettle]

Hoping for a special electric fave to pop-up soon and replace N, he doesn't do much in that team plus i had to grab physical damage reduction param but just want to do 3 electric fave team

[granite kettle]

Done Gauntlet, faves themes plus all 19/73 support faves are in separate teams, hope i can get more support faves in the future

[granite kettle]

Nice week, although lusamine having 3% hp left does gives me some scare...quite easier now that sshilbert is 5/5 for any bug weak content

[granite kettle]

Malva and Diantha are kinda rough this week, Gladion cannot cut it anymore for poison stuffs

[pure bone]

It’s been a minute since the last legendary hopefully soon

[granite kettle]

3 datamines without em

Well i will have 152k once everything on May is over

[pure bone]

wow

[granite kettle]

Finally, a new post after a long while, as i finally have 2 faves. Not gonna post cs clears this month because kanto cs is the easiest cs. So gauntlet it is, only 15 streaks as i want to do monotype faves team. I can do more if they give me dark support, another psychic dps, bug support, flying support, normal support faves

Give me another water support as well

[granite kettle]

Pasio special cs faves run, new faves carrying their weight.
Vethan 2/5
Ssiono 2/5
Sselesalt 1/5
❤️

[lament carbon]

Vantner clears are back

[granite kettle]

Lol, because i think there's too many faves since i last posted. Its nearing 100 now

[barren falcon]

MONOTYPE

[granite kettle]

Yes i love to monotype if i can
