High Score

[bright river]

I did a quick team just to see the rankings and I dropped from master to ultra 1

so rip the less than 10k players playing dream

[light star]

at what rank do you think its safe?

[onyx crystal]

There isn't a way to know, the longer the event goes on the more people will climb.

You should experiment and get better results if you want to keep the rank.

[cyan tusk]

Let me enjoy my few seconds of glory before I get sniped

[light star]

@onyx crystal got any tips for my current team and what can i switch up?

[thorny grove]

[onyx crystal]

Bruh

[thorny grove]

I knew this team would be a good fit. Only took 3 tires too (once I got MPR on Misty that is

[onyx crystal]

Did you keep your teams from earlier?

[cyan tusk]

Nope I adjusted them

Imma share them here, just a sec

[thorny grove]

I personally would switch Misty’s team to Marlon, Marlon’s team to Lana, and Lana’s team to Misty.

[onyx crystal]

Can you edit in your strength levels.

[light star]

will do

[cyan tusk]

You mean the basic score I used?

[thorny grove]

Glojo is perfect for Lana (do surfing strikes 2 times and then close combat away at middle. Thunder Kyogre is amazing (I can send a pic of the grid I used) and then Cerena is just amazing for Marlon because of the 80% stat drop on your side and her being able to cancel that out with her debuffs.

[onyx crystal]

I don't think the score breakdown is necessary unless you want to provide that, but knowing how much strength achieved these points is useful.

[thorny grove]

I think they meant the level of your team, but you can prob go a bit higher in score too.

[thorny grove]

What place are you btw with that score? I’m trailing close behind ya and wanna know a ballpark of my score

[cyan tusk]

The level of my team is displayed in the previous screenshot and the total strength is on the leaderboard, let me grab the screenshots for the strength

[cyan tusk]

1

[thorny grove]

Oh shit. Welp looks like I’m prob gonna be set for this event lmao

[onyx crystal]

Not collective strength, the Strength applied to each stage.

[cyan tusk]

@onyx crystal ?

[onyx crystal]

click detailed view

[onyx crystal]

strength setting there shows how strong the stage was

So 480 on archie is quite high.

[onyx crystal]

[cyan tusk]

My personal trick upon the sleeve: enduring opponents sync is fine

[radiant pebble]

man wtf

that's so many points

[onyx crystal]

Misty 490
Marlon 440
Lana 480
Nessa 499
Archie 480

[cyan tusk]

Just go between 3 and 5 minutes. And do not waste time on bringing in sync pairs that can apply confusion if it’s the only thing they do lmao

[radiant pebble]

Ok I literally used the same Marlon team and struggled to get 12k less points than you

well my elio isn't EX, but still

[cyan tusk]

That’s the most RNG run actually, but flabbergast NCSerena is good

Do not grid rain mind blowing 2 but go for furious brain

[radiant pebble]

I didn't grid that

[cyan tusk]

Also, just head start anything that is not providing damage lmao

[cyan tusk]

I think I can do better against marlon

[shell oak]

Managed to increase my score from earlier a little by redoing archie

[light star]

i have 1/5 kyogre

was a pain in the ass

[ionic tapir]

Who is soppose to use against Marlon 🤔

[thorny grove]

Oof. I’m sorry I didn’t realize.

[thorny grove]

Tbh I’ve been using Cerena since she debuffs so much it basically cancels out the 80% stat drop

[elfin glacier]

woo i did it going to sleep now

[light star]

and i cant kill the goddamn sides on lana with urshufu

fking shts spam aoe

[cyan tusk]

Yeah the one I’m using too

[light star]

and i cant get regen

[mental blade]

Isn't she a Tech? Who's the Striker being afflicted by the stat drop?

[thorny grove]

… wait it’s only strikers?

[mental blade]

Ye

[shell oak]

Yeah I only realized too after may outdamaged archie lmao

[thorny grove]

Oh my god…

This whole time

[shell oak]

You may have your strength up too much

[thorny grove]

No wonder May just wasn’t doing anything that fight

I may redo that now tbh because She kinda easy clears that stage

[mental blade]

...May is also a Tech

Oh wait

Wailmer?

[thorny grove]

I… yeah you’re right

I forgot I switched mays. I was doing wailmwe at first and then I switched

[mental blade]

I can see Wailmer being hard-stopped by that

Swampert should be fine

[shell oak]

Are there any more teams I could maybe go back and refine? Maybe marlon but idk who i'd swap archie with

[azure idol]

Amazing job, congrats

[shell oak]

Don’t have champ serena

[cunning shore]

[azure idol]

I guess a lot of head start?

[thorny grove]

SWA pert was fine during it. Tbh she was just muddy water spam and rain dance for syncs and for the end so Cerena can escape the aoe spam

What are y’all doin for Lana outside of Glojo? I think that’s the one I’m struggling with the most.

[sour fable]

This is why you always queue your other moves. Should have used dual water guns right after you sync'd

Ditch sstr and you'll hit 180k+ easily. Use any water type and you'll win against misty with archie + elio

[thorny grove]

They couldn’t the sync move was right after theirs. Lana’s move just ended.

[paper mist]

JP twitter doesn't seem to like the event, and actual posts I've come across are mostly expressing confusion about how any of it works

[sour fable]

You probably got other teams so sry about the ping

[ionic tapir]

You talking about Serena and Greninja 🤔

[paper mist]

(note, I misclicked the wrong answer )

[thorny grove]

I’m having fun with it I just wish it wasn’t so difficult team wise.

[gleaming raven]

she uh, doesnt even get hit by that

[thorny grove]

I was yeah but I didn’t realize that the stat thing was only for strikers. She’s still great for that though

[gleaming raven]

she's easily the best option for that stage in my experience, yeah

[sour fable]

The turn order will be like

The opponent has an action but your sync button is available. You immediately click your sync button AND the other 2 will click something else

[thorny grove]

Watch the start of the video. The Lana just used leech life and the opponent sync was already activated. They quite literally could not que another move before dying.

[sour fable]

Arent they the same ppl who spammed everything they had in that forsaken prestige event?

[ionic tapir]

Only for strikers hu.
So use a DPS tech then 🤔

[thorny grove]

Yeah. That’s why Cerena is great for that stage.

[sour fable]

Dont just spam w.shuriken

Use brutal swing too

Be cunning about what to spam at what time

[paper mist]

idk

[sour fable]

The shenanigans she could pull off are just insane

[thorny grove]

Really? I just did WShuriken. I did a swing to get confusion but that’s it.

[sour fable]

Swing can aoe flinch

Acc debuffs helps in evasion

[azure idol]

What's the rank required for the master medal?

[thorny grove]

Yeah but only once. After that you gotta wait an entire sync cycle.

[sour fable]

I used her against marlon which had aoe endure

[sullen pier]

Top 10k

[gleaming raven]

top 10,000 ranking overall when the event ends

[cunning shore]

1-10k

[azure idol]

Thanks

[gleaming raven]

there's no specific number we can give

[thorny grove]

Oh I was doing May so I kinda had max accuracy drop already

[sour fable]

The fate of these rankings will be sealed in 3 whole resets anyway

[thorny grove]

? Why 3

[sour fable]

This is not like prestige where the rankings could change each day

Almost everyone will take a shot at this event in the first 3 days

And they'll spam everything they have

[thorny grove]

Fair but I’d imagine a lot of people will still try to get higher scores until the end.

[paper mist]

you're forgetting weekends

more people have free time on weekends so they'll try harder then too

[thorny grove]

Just look at LG, people will run the most backwards looking teams to get one more clear.

[light star]

increased by 800 @onyx crystal thanks for the idea of swapping teams ill keep experimenting

[sour fable]

My ranking with 270k when i first finished:- 48
My ranking now with 284.8k:- 155

The difference is bcuz a whole side of the world just woke up

[shell oak]

i'm just afraid of having to redo teams to stay within the threshold im sitting at 974 rn after i had dropped to like 1.4k earlier from around 920

[sour fable]

195k is 4.2k rank? Wtf?

[light star]

does lysandre need to be 3/5?

[sour fable]

Yes and no

I took 450 strength

And i used lysandre sync

You could use grims sync

[thorny grove]

I’m sure I just cleared him with 1/5. Depends on your team

I used 15,000 points too

[sour fable]

Do you have gloria

[onyx crystal]

But @thorny grove is the one who gave you suggestions 🫠

[thorny grove]

;-; sadness. Forgotten for my suggestions

[light star]

oh man i got mixed up

[thorny grove]

I’ll never recover from this

[sour fable]

I dont have gloria or ss kris so i couldnt get the free 1k(thats 3k with the multiplier) for having a MC in the party

[thorny grove]

It reminds me of the time Ricky Spanish took all my glory in the family guy cutaway gag. hard cuts to family guy cutaway gag about cutaway gag

[tranquil blaze]

the likely hood of me getting master rank is slim but man do I want it

[thorny grove]

What water units do you have? We can help ya theory craft some teams to increase your multiplier

[wraith goblet]

How can I best set up teams with these units?

[bold pond]

Do you have to clear this event like 12.5k? It doesn't seem to give gems so the only thing of value is candy coins right?

[thorny grove]

Out of everyone I have what’d be best for Lana? I’m trying to save SSBlue Hilbert and Kris for Archie. I’m willing to switch it up though for better odds of winning.

[light star]

yeag

[sour fable]

Do you have

Archie
Ss lysandre
C.serena
Ss blue?

[thorny grove]

If you want the rewards in the list or if you want a good ranking reward then you’d need to strategize and get a high score. Otherwise if you just want the 500 gems from the stage first clears you can do that too

[tranquil blaze]

Here are my water units, I can't currently test any teams atm as my iPad needs to charge

[sour fable]

Then you can aim for like 60k-75k on a single stage using her

[tranquil blaze]

If I had them don't you think I would've used them?

[patent ocean]

Question: We get points for speed, number of hits, strength etc. Are there any stats you guys are foregoing when chasing a high score?

[thorny grove]

Mmmm… no Archie and no Cerena makes two stages kinda harder since you can clear them easily with them. Give me a sec to theory craft.

[sour fable]

None of them?

[bold pond]

Hmmm....I guess I might as well get some of the rewards. How hard is it to actually get any? I have lots of water types.

[thorny grove]

Tbh I’m not even paying much attention to the stats increase one. I try to just get both defenses buffed as much as I can, crit, and whatever form of attack my main DPS is using. Other than that the other stats I couldn’t give a crap

[sour fable]

You can replace serena with ss misty and take less strength like lets say 300-350

[tranquil blaze]

if I had them don't you think I would've used them? I just shared my water units

[patent ocean]

I meant are you guys ignoring any of the point thresholds like speed?

Clear in 60 secs etc

[sour fable]

Sry bud you ain't getting to the range of 210k

Go pull the lysandre banner. He is fantastic

[thorny grove]

Oh I’m ignoring the speed entirely. I just go for a high score and get the speed bonus I can. Having a stronger opponent is much better than having 3k in speed.

[sour fable]

Yes. The time trial parameter is a scam. Don't pay attention to it. All battles will be over in less that 5 mins anyway(in game timer)

[tranquil blaze]

I currently have 3 pities but would I re-reach 3 pities in time for anni?

[patent ocean]

Ok so strong opp, ignore time

[sour fable]

No you won't

But lysandre is strong af

2nd best team in the game

[sour fable]

Dual frogs + lysandre ^

[thorny grove]

Oh defiantly. You have all month this month and then next month.

[azure idol]

60 seconds is just impossible with reasonable strength level. Buff and hits score increase linearly so there's no point to chase certain threshold

[thorny grove]

If you’re ever wondering how many gems are left until roughly the end of the month write @ gems and you’ll see a name that tells you the name of gems that are left.

[patent ocean]

How bad is Master difficulty?

[sour fable]

Top 10k ppl are given the master title. Rn, 195k points are at rank 4.2k

[thorny grove]

Rn there’s 15k until the end of July and then August usually has a ton. And then Anni is usually end of August so that’s about 2 and a half months to save.

[loud lagoon]

i think you should be able to reach back 3 pities because last august gave 45k gems

[thorny grove]

Master is p bad. You’ll need ex and 3/5 on most of your units and like one amazing unit for the stage.

[tranquil blaze]

I just don't want to pull for lysandre and not be able to get all 3 anni units, especially since lysandre is basically a caved pull since I don't really care for him

[cyan tusk]

Thank you

[thorny grove]

Yeah no you’ll be fine. You can go to pity once and be fine. Just gotta not cave in for pre anni month bait.

[sour fable]

Lysandre is INSANELY strong lol. Puts many of the masterfairs to shame

[cyan tusk]

Rng, good timing when nullification effect goes off, trade offs on which point who to focus on

[tranquil blaze]

Okay doesn't matter if I don't care for him lol

[bold pond]

Is it hard to get all rewards?

[sour fable]

Congratulations!!!!

[patent ocean]

Here’s my box. They’re all 3/5 and above. Would the order work or are there any changes you’d recommend?

[sour fable]

Share your teams pls

[tranquil blaze]

I've held out this long so pulling lysandre is okay and ill still be safe for anni?

[thorny grove]

I assume this goes in order of Misty being 1 and Archie being 5?

[floral smelt]

if you don't see yourself using him outside of this event and events like it, i'd say you're better off saving. he's op, yes, but chasing the meta all the time (and ESPECIALLY this event what was DeNa thinking) is just tiring and will lead to you getting burned out faster

[patent ocean]

Yes

[sour fable]

Would you mind renaming them from challenges to the name of the characters we gonna face?

[patent ocean]

Sure gimme a sec

[lone trout]

I’m having a blast

[stable spruce]

Did it

[lone trout]

I never thought I would actually use Sebold

[sour fable]

Wallace is gonna be amazing if you time mirror coat right. But if you wont then he's gonna drag you down

[thorny grove]

Ok, so I’d personally say switch Archie to 1 because of Thunder grid. I’ve been using Cerena for Marlon. And if you even have 1:5 Lys he kinda just steamrolls Nessa

[sour fable]

No. Dont use thunder on archie

Just spam o.pulse

[thorny grove]

Yeah you’re fine. Hell how many gems you at rn?

[sour fable]

Trust me, he clears it easily

[tranquil blaze]

I'm aware, im not usually one to chase the meta but I really do want master rank and the likelihood of me getting back to 3 pities seems likely

[sour fable]

How many points are you aiming for anyway?

[thorny grove]

What are your other water units?

[sour fable]

Marlon stage gonna be a bi*ch to you.

Giving rain to lana is just suicide

[tranquil blaze]

137,170 gems

[thorny grove]

And also Lana is mostly Physical from what I’ve seen

[floral smelt]

if getting master rank is your main goal for this, i'd say you're gonna be fine if you pull. just don't stress out too much, since this event will most likely rerun but with different types. you should make back a pity before anni anyways!

[sour fable]

Oh btw, misty opens with hail on entry and that entire team can spam blizzard

[patent ocean]

As many as I can

[sour fable]

Whats the benchmark?

200k?

[patent ocean]

Minus 3/4 star

[thorny grove]

You’re literally good to have 4 pities by the end of this month alone. So by anni you’ll likely have 5

[patent ocean]

All water

[lone trout]

I’m in the mid 5ks with my score of 186k

[patent ocean]

That would be within Master threshold right? Yeah.

[lone trout]

Greninja is kinda busted in this

Multi hits count as multiple attacks

[tranquil blaze]

Also b4 I pull for lysandre does he need to be past 1/5 to work or can he be fine at base lvl?

[sour fable]

Why use serena against archie? You'll have 80% of your dps and nuke gone

[patent ocean]

I didn’t craft based on team. I just filled in 5 teams with water

[sour fable]

Yes. Heck, i saw 195k points ranking at 4.2k few mins ago. Master rank is top 10k ppl

[thorny grove]

Yeah I’d say so. Which I’m happy about since I’m at 180k already with just 3 clears

[bright river]

@onyx crystal I beat Archie.

[lone trout]

Now the event is young

[sour fable]

1/5 is already busted. 3/5 is needed if you wanna nuke with him(and a 30% dps multiplier)

[bright river]

Now this is the hard content.

[lone trout]

Rankings will get harder as time goes

[thorny grove]

This is me so far. As long as I keep this mid 50k-60k per stage I’m set

[sour fable]

Those within top 300 are already safe tbh

They are almost guaranteed to keep their master title

[patent ocean]

Do you have to redo the entire run to rerank or can you just challenge single stages?

[lone trout]

Dang, blowing me out if the water in just 3

[thorny grove]

I’ve just gotta figure out Archie and Lana

[lone trout]

That’s matching my score of all 5

[thorny grove]

Just singles

[sour fable]

You can reset each stage individually

[thorny grove]

When you press reset this page pops up and you choose what to reset

[sour fable]

You gonna surpass me. Gratz

[lone trout]

Best feature of this event

[bright river]

considering how people have over estimated what was needed to rank in the top 6k of the Gloria War... we will see

[patent ocean]

So switch out Cerena from Archie. Where would you put her?

[grizzled spade]

Is this any good?

[thorny grove]

If I can beat Lana and Archie lmao. So far I have nothing for them

[lone trout]

That’s great for a single stage

[thorny grove]

Yeah that’s great!

[sour fable]

My lana battle was the worst. Had to pick 230 strength. Thats my lowest

[thorny grove]

Damn I really need to figure out that stage.

[lone trout]

I haven’t tried to push them all to the max

[grizzled spade]

great! I’m really glad then lol. Lana was tough

Now I work on the others

[sour fable]

Do you have d.gloria?

[grizzled spade]

I tried on my first ever attempt

Never again

[patent ocean]

Are Lana/Archie the tough ones to watch out for?

[lone trout]

If I don’t have to, I don’t want to bang my head against a Stakataka

[sour fable]

Lana and Marlon

Archie can be dealt with

[thorny grove]

I wishhhhhh. I’m doing dailies and hoping I get her. As soon as I do I’m redoing her stage for a better score

[grizzled spade]

My lowest score right now is Nessa

[thorny grove]

For me year since I’m kinda stuck figuring out physical trainers to use.

[sour fable]

What other units do you have left?

[lone trout]

I love Gloria and Urshifu. Been my staple unit ever since she came out

[grizzled spade]

I went ahead and EXed my SS Grimsley

[patent ocean]

Who would you use phys on?

[thorny grove]

Who me?

[sour fable]

Reminder:- physical waters are either rare or weak af so watch out

[lone trout]

I do have a question

[sour fable]

Yes

[thorny grove]

I’m likely gonna ex my Kris and Nessa for Archie and Lana

[sour fable]

Archie

[lone trout]

What grid is required to make SS Grimsley good?

[solid geyser]

Reset Lana to crack 270k, prob good enough

[lone trout]

Because mine sucks and is 5/5

[grizzled spade]

If isn’t a great score, but it’s fine for now

[thorny grove]

All of them left are here. Rosa is in the top bar.

[patent ocean]

Wouldn’t that have made my original Cerena setup perfect for him?

[grizzled spade]

This event was cool because SS Misty actually got some use, she has a few propulsion’s on her grid

[thorny grove]

Altogether I have this

[grizzled spade]

I can send mine

[grizzled spade]

I used her for Marlon, since she isn’t affected by his condition

[thorny grove]

Wait she’s useful? What’s the grid I need to know what she can be used for.

[patent ocean]

Ah ok

[sour fable]

I got 50k with nessa + ssb + rosa against marlon. I'm pretty sure this team could do better against someone else. But rosa drags the team a little. Thats why i replaced her

[grizzled spade]

Here’s my grid

[grizzled spade]

I used her against Archie to get to my syncs faster

[lone trout]

Thx

[sour fable]

Ss misty is good here

[grizzled spade]

She’s not amazing, but if you get lucky with Propulsions she’s fun

[thorny grove]

Mhm. Interesting. What was the rest of that team?

[sour fable]

All misty's are good here

[grizzled spade]

My team for Archie was SS Grimsley, SS Misty, and Lana

[thorny grove]

Oh I have a Marlon done already.

[patent ocean]

Would this work better maybe?

[sour fable]

I could easily get 55k-65k if i had ss kris here

[thorny grove]

It’s just Lana and Archie.

[sour fable]

You have swimsuit misty with psyduck?

Oh ye you do

[slow obsidian]

Asking for a friend, resetting doesn't affect your rank, right?

[sour fable]

Her and archie kills misty easily with almost any 3rd unit

[candid cobalt]

Does Cerena need rain?

[sour fable]

No

[patent ocean]

Interesting. Ok

[sour fable]

No

[candid cobalt]

Cos rain would probs benefit Kris more

[slow obsidian]

Aighr thanks

[thorny grove]

No. It helps a lot for special defense drops. But she works completely fine without it

[sour fable]

But not having rain delays the stage so you better hope for some shenanigans with acc debuffs and flinching with brutal swings

[thorny grove]

Also that SS Misty team may just save my Lana team.

[sour fable]

How about you swap misty and elio? Misty can heal but lana wouldnt let you. Elio can put opponents to sleep but misty wont let you

[thorny grove]

These were my teams for them and now I can switch it around a lot

[patent ocean]

Better maybe?

[candid cobalt]

Oooh hmm

[patent ocean]

Ah ok

[thorny grove]

Oh I just realized I had Elio in both. I would’ve had to switch him off of one

[thorny grove]

Rain Lana is apparently bad so I’d recommend switching that team up

[candid cobalt]

Not sure if Siebold's really gonna do anything there

[sour fable]

Yep better

[candid cobalt]

I'd recommend a rain setter instead of Siebold tbh

[lone trout]

Only use Siebold if you have no other water confuse setter available

[sour fable]

How good is wake against archie?

[lone trout]

He doesn’t even have good buffs

[thorny grove]

Oh I’ve been ignoring the confusion thing. It’s 1k points and I get that more by adding strength.

[patent ocean]

Swapped in a rain setter and shifted rain out from Lana

250k material?

[lone trout]

Is Nessa good?

As a unit to use I mean

[thorny grove]

Yeah that could break 250k. I recommend doing stages and when you finish or end an attempt if it seemed a bit easy or you could go a bit father then you can up the points by +10

[thorny grove]

For this defiantly. She drops defense and speed with ripple effect.

[patent ocean]

Sweet. Thanks for the in-depth team building. I’ll go get my water gear and come back to this.

[sour fable]

?

[lone trout]

Oh yeah I forgot gear

I never use gear

[thorny grove]

Literally just bring Archie and do TM into OP. Wins in 2 turns of OP guaranteed, even with bots or no shows

[patent ocean]

Seriously?

[thorny grove]

I did that for an hour last night while watching a movie

[patent ocean]

Didn't need a rain setter then did I lol

[lone trout]

I never cared to learn how to Min max gear in this game

[pliant temple]

Question- do Archie's self-inflicted debuffs with his TM lower your score?

[lone trout]

If you lower your stats and rebuff, it adds more points actually

[grand perch]

Don’t think there’s a penalty for debuffs, just bonus for buffing

[lone trout]

Debuffing does not take away points

Neither does fainting btw

[pliant temple]

[grizzled spade]

Do you guys think it’ll be hard to stay in Masters Rank near the end of this event?

[thorny grove]

Tbh now it isn’t hard. You just do the hard version of the gear stage during the event until you either get 5 of each 3* or pay for them in the shop. Only thing then is to get enough of the bronze and silver gear to exchange for level cap

[grand perch]

I mean, there’s nothing to learn about min maxing gear haha

Yeah

[thorny grove]

Depends on your placement.

[grizzled spade]

Right now I’m in Masters ~3000

[thorny grove]

I think if you’re in the higher half of the 10k you should be fine.

[grizzled spade]

Specifically 3301

[grand perch]

Just slap the 3 star gear that matches your most important unit’s type

[lone trout]

sweats in 51k

[thorny grove]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-cry-sorry-crying-sad-gif-15787985

[lone trout]

I’ve been playing this all afternoon

I was going to enter the Temple of Ancients in FF7 today but this has completely sidetracked me

[thorny grove]

What’s your teams?

[grizzled spade]

I’ve had to EX a few pairs for this event. Which sucks because I’ll never use them again 😭💀

[lone trout]

I am not EXing just for this

[thorny grove]

Honestly you can prob switch Marlon and Lana’s teams around. Lana just kinda loses to Glojo.

[lone trout]

I did raise level caps and level up tho

[candid cobalt]

What's uh

Siebold doing in the team

Is he there just for Confusion?

[lone trout]

Water Pulse

[thorny grove]

I’ve only EX’ed Lys who I wanted to anyways. I have 100 5* tickets so I’ll prob ex one or two more. I was considering using candies but then decided against it

[gleaming raven]

siebold's the moral support

[candid cobalt]

😭

I was just thinking poor Siebold

[sour fable]

I just hit 286k

[thorny grove]

Yeah I hate the stupid confusion thing. Like we only have 4 confusion water units and one of them needs it from grid. It just shouldn’t be part of the event points. Same for MC, sure we have enough but it just limits our teams more

[sour fable]

I think i can go to 290k max

[lone trout]

Who gets confuse in grid?

[thorny grove]

I’m gonna pass that and reach for 300k

[lone trout]

I know that’s a thing I just don’t know who

[thorny grove]

Cerena

[sour fable]

Wake, siebold

[thorny grove]

Only on Brutal Swing

[lone trout]

Oh screw Brutal Swing tho

[sour fable]

Lana drags me down lol. No d.gloria and no ss kris here

[thorny grove]

No wake and Seibokd get it from WPulse. Cerena gets confusion from grid specifically

[thorny grove]

Gotcha. I’m in the same boat for Glojo. SS Kris thoooooo

[sour fable]

If i had her then I'd be at 293k minimum

[lone trout]

Ok guess I’m still grinding tonight

A more fun grind than max points Master mode tho

[thorny grove]

Oh for sure

[grizzled spade]

Oh yeah I forgot about the confusion thin

[thorny grove]

Master mode just makes you pick and choose how you wanna fuck yourself. This event is just hard and you make it as hard as you want.

[grizzled spade]

Whatever I just ignored it, it’s only 1K

[lone trout]

I love that it’s not as limiting as Master mode

[thorny grove]

Don’t worry too much about it. It’s just 1k and building your team around it will prob lose you about 3-4k per team

[lone trout]

So is prioritizing time better?

In my mind it’s counter productive to the other two, so I haven’t been focusing on speed

[thorny grove]

Nah just make it as hard point wise. Time is a good bonus but you need to clear in like one minute for good results on it.

[lone trout]

I still get over 1000 from speed

[grizzled spade]

tbh I didn’t really keep any of the conditions in mind I just fought

😭

[thorny grove]

So you’ll get like 3k from bringing the overall score down by like 9k. It’s not worth to fish for.

[sour fable]

Yep

[grizzled spade]

How many points do you guys turn up your difficulty to?

[sour fable]

I'm satisfied with my 296k

[grizzled spade]

Tbh I only am around 250-300

[sour fable]

Rip that extra 1 powerup in my inventory

[grand perch]

150-200 is enough to get all points, more to score high

[lone trout]

5k is my base and work up from there

[grizzled spade]

For Lana I beat it with 300

[onyx crystal]

[thorny grove]

I go to expert to start and if it’s easy I go another 10 point increase. If it’s too hard and I can’t clear it I go down by one to try and clear.

[sour fable]

Misty:- 340
Marlon:- 420
Lana:- 230
Nessa:- 450
Archie:- 320

Could go higher on misty and archie

[lone trout]

Ok back to the lab

[sour fable]

Same with nessa tbh

[lone trout]

Do y’all kill the center first or the sides?

[bright river]

yeah I used the team you posted

[bright river]

For Marlon, did you 6ex sync with Lana?

[thorny grove]

I do center and try to AOE the sides away.

[sour fable]

Whatever is a threat and whatever we can kill first, we kill that first

[sour fable]

Yep, mind is 1/5

[lone trout]

I don’t have spread syncs

[bright river]

No wonder I was struggling with 420 points

[thorny grove]

Like for Misty I did Thunder Kyogre until 2nd sync, then I started OP and then by 3rd sync middle went down and so did the sides

[sour fable]

You wont beat marlon with my team unless you use c.serena's full potential including brutal swing

[topaz sleet]

is this… even good LOL

[patent ocean]

Do battles last long enough to warrant support sync?

[topaz sleet]

idk this is my first clear

[lone trout]

Dang you got that with Pikachu!?!?!?

That’s great

[patent ocean]

o 5 minutes pretty long

[sour fable]

47k offtype......my lana stage is just 45k💀

[thorny grove]

Wait did you… YOU MASTER CLEARED

[bright river]

oh... it's not that easy huh...

[thorny grove]

That’s the first one I’ve seen someone do.

[topaz sleet]

yeah i did master

the minimum of it

[lone trout]

I may try that

As a for fun thing later

[patent ocean]

Yeah when I was asking about Master difficulty, I meant point thresholds haha

[thorny grove]

I’m just waiting for someone to do max. When they do I don’t even care what team they did or how. I’d forfeit my master tier badge to them.

[topaz sleet]

ok so 47k is pretty good i’ll take it

i had to grid ash for propulsion on his tm so i could get 2 syncs off in time, it was awkward 💀

[thorny grove]

You were good on that though. I cleared that with Archie Thunder spam lmao. I got 64k points

It’s just kinda better to lower your points and do 3 water than it is 2 water and higher points.

[sour fable]

1st cycle:- tm, swing(flinch), shuriken

2nd cycle:- bmove on centre, shuriken/swing(depending on the requirement), shuriken and sync. Mid will survive

After that, bmove on a side. Use 2 shurikens(or 1 shuriken + 1 swing) on the other side.

Sync on the middle(this will kill the mid)

Swing/shuriken spam on the rebuffed side while hoping your acc debuffs and evas buffs lets you avoid 2 aoe moves(lana's wide guard is a boon, i only had one)

Sync on the non-rebuff side(it dies)

1 last shuriken later, the stage is ded

[patent ocean]

Didn't you do TM into OP?

[onyx crystal]

Oh cool. Even though mine was unoptimized af.

Btw guys, I've added Bicio, Jo, and Pykuo high rankings into the pinned comment.

[thorny grove]

Honestly very similar to my strat.

[sour fable]

How much score?

[sour fable]

I really like her kit now tbh

I didnt pick her confusion tile. So rip points

[onyx crystal]

At 10am est, I did 273,171 which was Rank 94 at the time.
I'm now at 295.

[sour fable]

Nice

[thorny grove]

I always have. Whenever I see water or dark weak I automatically just pick her and CCalem lol

[thorny grove]

I forgot the first time I cleared Lana with her and then redid the team but for Marlon instead and cleared with that. Still deciding if that was the best choice

Maybe I’ll switch that team back to Lana. Idk depends on what I get when I try her with a diff team.

[lone trout]

Ok I tried this. Gater can’t scratch Marlon

[amber warren]

Can these beat Nessa 150 pt?

I only have her left

[lone trout]

Let me try Nessa over Gater

[thorny grove]

Eee… yeah idk on that I just used Lys for Nessa

[amber warren]

i used barry, misty and elio but never close enough to kill second side unit

[thorny grove]

Also for Lana and Archie do y’all think these teams work? My only problem with Archie would be getting speed for inertia but I could add fast track 2 as the LC and replace my CS2

[thorny grove]

Did you use sing on em again? After a sync or two you’re good to do it again.

[amber warren]

i mean it is 30% it havent happened once in this event

[thorny grove]

? Wdym 30% what’s your LC on Elio?

[amber warren]

Teach elio that cookie increase hit rate?

[indigo egret]

so we can only use water pairs for 180k point?

[amber warren]

Doesnt it only increase like 10%

30% vs 33% not help tho

[thorny grove]

Well depends on how many points you put into it. With 3 water pairs you get 3X multiplier but with 2 pairs you’d get 2X. I’ve been doing hard points but doable with 3 water pairs. It’s much better than high points but only 2.

[amber warren]

You mean you do 150pt with same team as mine?

[topaz sleet]

hmm i should prob max my water gear before trying more of this

[thorny grove]

Ok so sing is a 45% to hit. The Trouble Maker LC is an additional 20% to accuracy on status moves. So not 45%+9%, 45%+20%. That’s a 65% chance for sing

[amber warren]

Oh i thought sing is 30% acc

I will try trouble maker then

[thorny grove]

No, and whenever you see an ability with a number behind it it’s whatever the number is times 10, plus 10. It’s weird but if they ever made a unit with Trouble maker and no number then it’s just a 10% increase, that’s why 9 on abilities is a guaranteed effect

[vapid turtle]

Is there a standard list of which pairs are best to use for each battle?

[solid geyser]

Swapped teams for top 300

[lone trout]

Maaaaaaaaan I had a really good run and for some reason my score was low

I forgot the MC

[thorny grove]

From my experience and seeing others runs.
Kyogre Thunder Misty (gets super effective and brings rain to stop her blizzard spam)
Marlon mostly loses to Cerena.
Lana is Glojo weak (basically same as Misty Kyogre)
SS Lys for Nessa
And Archie I’ve seen people mostly use SS Grimsley

[lone trout]

Why can’t Blue be an MC

[thorny grove]

I made the same mistake on team building because my brain just said “yeah blue is MC” even though he just isn’t lol

[vapid turtle]

And should I just fill these teams out with main characters/characters that can inflict confusion?

[thorny grove]

I’d say one MC per team, I wouldn’t focus on the confusion part. Make the team work and just bring the point difficulty up instead since that just gives you more.

[sour fable]

Rock slide crit ohko'd both sides and yet serena said F U to the stage(just tried this)

[lone trout]

Ok Elio replace Misty

[vapid turtle]

I also have basically all water pairs so if I have other characters like SS Lysandre etc should I include them?

[mental blade]

NICE hit

[thorny grove]

What stage is that?

[wraith goblet]

I think I'm just gonna take what I got to and pass on the rest cause this mode just straight annoys the hell out of me.

[tardy quartz]

Currently progress

[sour fable]

Marlon

[tardy quartz]

Top 500

[tranquil blaze]

Okay so I’ve decided not to go for Master rank rn as this event will most definitely re-run as different types but i do want to get all rewards so wtf can I do lol

[sour fable]

Perfect 69000 against marlon. ||NICE!!!!||

[vapid turtle]

Sorry one more question, what’s the standard difficulty I should go up to?

[lone trout]

All rewards is Master rank right now lol

[lone trout]

Niiiiiiice

[wraith goblet]

it really depends. I don't think they're quite accurate in their gauging off of CSMM.

unless they mean with max parameters

[amber warren]

Between Barry and Sheibog no ex who is better agaisnt nessa?

[solid geyser]

Shiebog?

[thorny grove]

Depends on what you’re ok to beat. I personally have been doing expert at the very least and then raising or lowering the difficulty from there.

[wraith goblet]

just tweak it as you go and see.

[amber warren]

Oke i will wait till i can 5star sheibog then

[vapid turtle]

Thank you

[solid geyser]

Who is sheibog lol

[thorny grove]

You know. Sheibog. The guy. He… yeah Sheibog!

[amber warren]

I forgot the chef guy name

[thorny grove]

Always yells that he’s gonna Sheibog

[amber warren]

cant remember the name of mid charactrr

[solid geyser]

Siebold bro

[thorny grove]

It’s like the most memorable part of his character

[solid geyser]

Lmao

[tranquil blaze]

^^^^ any help w/ this pls

[thorny grove]

His shrimp fried rice

[solid geyser]

Kinda wish I had octillery ngl

[indigo egret]

is this event difficult

[thorny grove]

Yeah. It do be a tricky one. Especially if you just don’t have all the water units.

[sour fable]

And thats 290k

[amber warren]

need at least 200k point i guess

[solid geyser]

You need 12k base points with triple water team, just experiment with the strength multiplier until you find the right amount. Prob around 150-200

[sour fable]

A simple 150 str is enough for you to get all of the rewards. If you cant do it with a triple water team then increase the strength and use 1 offtype but op af unit(my friends used ash)

[amber warren]

Does 2 water and 300 pt result in 40k?

[sour fable]

You'll need 350

Not 300

[amber warren]

[sour fable]

I used 2 waters + ss morty against lana to get 40k

[lone trout]

Oh wait Elio goated

He’s so much better than Misty

[candid cobalt]

Elios great

[amber warren]

Ex lodge May > Non ex Barry?

[rain sierra]

I don't think she can do much without SE damage

I only put her for MC bonus

[onyx crystal]

Barry has a better sync than LMay.

[rain sierra]

He's not reliant for SE damage for one

[onyx crystal]

only main benefit for may is the stat boost, even in CS it's better to use a unit like her with Support ex

[amber warren]

no i dont have anyone left for nessa

[sour fable]

If only lodge may had confusion

[candid cobalt]

Does anyone have any suggestions for these teams?

Wondering which ones I should redo

[amber warren]

Only options are chef guy, Barry and Lodge May

[sour fable]

You can redo nessa. Make sure your rain doesnt aid your opponent too much

[amber warren]

oh i will copy your archie team

[candid cobalt]

Cries

[sour fable]

Misty battle is easy af with archie

[candid cobalt]

Nessa was painful for me

[sour fable]

My painful one was lana. Just 45k

[candid cobalt]

I can probably redo Lana

[sour fable]

I did a 62k run with ss lysandre with no confusion and no MC in the team slot with 450 strength

You can easily do it with eusine with like 350-380 strength

[vapid turtle]

Just did my first one, how is a score of 18,700

[sour fable]

You got all the rewards

[vapid turtle]

How should I up that

[sour fable]

So thats enough

[vapid turtle]

Oh true

[candid cobalt]

Problem is Lana is way too frail

She kinda needs 3/5

But mines 2/5

[sour fable]

I did a 420 str run with lana + c.serena + og misty and that gave me 69000 exact points

You can lower it to 300-350

[candid cobalt]

I’ve already tried 300-350

[sour fable]

My lana is 1/5 btw

[candid cobalt]

You do have CSerena so

I’ll try again

Is your Lana EXd?

[sour fable]

Yes

[candid cobalt]

Ah no wonder

[lone trout]

Man I need better than 2 egg mons

[amber warren]

Only reach master rank 3000

200k is enough to secure the rank?

[lone trout]

I’m in the 4ks

[amber warren]

Seem like 10000 above 180k is enough for medal

[lone trout]

For now yes

We will see if that lasts

[amber warren]

hopefully not

i can still push to 210k or sth but that is too much of hassle

[lone trout]

I want to push 200k minimum

[candid cobalt]

I want to try to reach 250k

[amber warren]

Any recommendation to increase score?

[outer whale]

swap lana out wth someone else, and have lana be put with Archie.

Was able to get 60K from that team alone for Archie

[amber warren]

Archie die fast tho i can push that to 50k i guess

[outer whale]

this was my setup

gonna try and optimize misty more, probably swap Psyduck with Starmie

[amber warren]

My problem is the lack of striker

Really hard to use tech this event

[outer whale]

did you not use May?

[onyx crystal]

how does Elio survive vs Marlon. Sleep locking only gets you so far.

[amber warren]

I used her for misty

[outer whale]

sleep stalling still works fairyly well

i did the same thing

[onyx crystal]

He died to 1 liqudation

[amber warren]

It worked better than i thought tho

[outer whale]

what other team members did you have?

[onyx crystal]

Gyarados, and cSerena 3/5 ex.

My Elio is 5/5 non-ex.

[outer whale]

hmm. i opted out tech gyara for May just for the extra DPS since I don't have 3/5 Cerena

[onyx crystal]

Even so, how do you survive a sync with 0 Def buffs?

[tiny breach]

God, this event made me realize I don't have enough physical waters

Archie kept whooping my ass i had to resort using nonwaters

[outer whale]

i think i got lucky and used Sleep to avoid liquidations

[outer whale]

no Kris?

[tiny breach]

Not exed

[outer whale]

oh fair

[amber warren]

We cant see full rank board? I want to see how many i will increase when reach 220k point

[tiny breach]

Also i can kill archie via kris but the sides are killing me

[haughty haven]

Lana str 400
Always 2 shot my tank

[tiny breach]

My only good physical water is serena and i used her with marlon

Or was it lana

Anyways i got 180k already

[full lark]

Champ Serena isn’t physical Water though

Only physical on Dark

[tiny breach]

Wait what

Lmao

I used lana with her to max her atk lmao

[full lark]

Water Shuriken was made a special move in…gen 7, I think?

[tiny breach]

Im so used to unite because gren is atk based there

Anyways it's my fault for increasing the strength to 10k

[lone trout]

Man y’all are crazy

Almost at 200k

[tiny breach]

I'm fine with this 🫠

[lone trout]

16 Archie compared to the others lol

[tiny breach]

Yeah i only used 1 water type for him

Nessa SUCKS

[lone trout]

Egg mons can help supplement your water types

[tiny breach]

Sharpedo gets killed by the sides

[lone trout]

They aren’t good, but they give the multiplier

[tiny breach]

Most of them are special

What i want is a good physical dps

[full lark]

Nessa the playable pair is good, this content is just different from everything we’ve seen thus far

[amber warren]

Nessa is hardest for me tho since i ran out of both striker and def buff

[lone trout]

Yeah my most recent Archie had Sharpedo die and Samorott finish lol

[tiny breach]

Nessa can barely scratch archie

😭

And can't nuke him even with a restraint

[lone trout]

My Nessa did great against Marlon

[ornate cobalt]

All right I am back from a nap let’s finish this frickin thing Marlon nessa and Lana are left here’s my roster doing nessa

[tiny breach]

Try wallace for the funsies

[ornate cobalt]

He’s the tank tank

[tiny breach]

Siebold has a good nuke too

[ornate cobalt]

He does absolutely nothing stay there and take dmg and trap them

[tiny breach]

And be beautiful

[amber warren]

Anyone around 220k point?

[lone trout]

You think Siebold smells like a freshly cooked meal?

[tiny breach]

Only one way to find out

[lone trout]

“Blue skiddo, we can to” jumps into phone

[ornate cobalt]

Oh wow it actually worked

Marlon and Lana….

Sigh

Cries

[amber warren]

Can i click reset button?

i fear it will reset all

[ornate cobalt]

Any recommendations

[lone trout]

You can reset single battkes

It doesn’t reset all

[amber warren]

[lone trout]

Urshifu

[amber warren]

150pt?

[lone trout]

Elio did good for me on Marlon too

[ornate cobalt]

For strength? I am doing 200

Trying to get the last of 180k

[amber warren]

Well good luck

[ornate cobalt]

K ty

[amber warren]

I see you ran out of support

[ornate cobalt]

Indeed

[topaz sleet]

does lana's no heal rule apply to regen as well

or just passives

[amber warren]

Only Marlon and Lana left?

[topaz sleet]

/ potions

[amber warren]

Anything

[topaz sleet]

brutal

[amber warren]

As long as you +0 hp she will allow it

[ornate cobalt]

Yes

[amber warren]

Oh then that good i guess

[ornate cobalt]

Also any recommendations for gridding gloria I wish I had a candy

[amber warren]

Gloria + misty + marlon seem like good team against Lana

Just wish for misty evassion trigger 5-6 time it happen more than i thought

[ornate cobalt]

Og misty?

[ornate cobalt]

Oh god rng

[amber warren]

Yeah

[ornate cobalt]

Welp I’ll build her

[amber warren]

I dunno if Dojo Gloria + Misty and random water is flincher enough for Lana 200pt but you can try to save marlon for marlon

[ornate cobalt]

I guess I can use Kris

Also I still have misty

May*

[amber warren]

Without Ex kris is a bit hard to kill side unit tho

I have to Ex her for this event just last hour

[ornate cobalt]

I guess I can use wake..?

[ornate cobalt]

Oof

I was already in the middle of trying to ex duckmisty because if this event

[amber warren]

Oh you mean kris as support dps?

[blazing birch]

[amber warren]

Work i guess but gauge bar issue

[ornate cobalt]

Og Kris yeah

For Marlon I am going Gloria misty and wake

[amber warren]

Marlon side can use slide rock oae tho and he use atk tho

[glacial helm]

Ok I'll bite

How am I supposed to fight Marlon with 80% stat decrease

[amber warren]

Only on striker

👀

[ornate cobalt]

Ah

So use this team for Lana?

At 200

[onyx crystal]

Don't use strikers

[glacial helm]

O it's strike only

Dummy me

Lodge Lillie it is

[amber warren]

you can try it on Lana... But Lana also use atk but she can be deal if you reduce her def

She has move and sync multiply base on def tho so Gloria is great help

[ornate cobalt]

oh that’s nice misty can’t take any amount of damage because she’s super weak at 3*

[rain sierra]

Misty - Special
Marlon - Physical
Lana - Physical
Nessa - Physical
Archie - Physical

Did I get it right?

[thorny grove]

@grizzled spade for your Archie team do you think Kris would also work? Trying to get the extra 1k points for MC.

[ornate cobalt]

I am tempted

To use the rats

[amber warren]

you can wish for god bless evasion tho i have her 5 star so... Yeah need to upgrade

[ornate cobalt]

I have no tickets

[rain sierra]

OG Misty can bank on evasion but yeah, it's gonna be rough nevertheless

[ornate cobalt]

Time to use all those tickets scouts I have saved up to get some 5 star tickets I guess

I can’t even use silver or bronze cuz I hav e one

[amber warren]

Can do 2 water + Sst red tho but that only work if you have enough support

For 30k+

[rain sierra]

SpDef is mostly useless in this event

[amber warren]

true

[rain sierra]

There is more physical stages

[ornate cobalt]

I got that

But

[rain sierra]

Of course, then the sides start spamming Surf

[ornate cobalt]

No supports

[amber warren]

yeah

[amber warren]

main unit never the problem

[rain sierra]

This is low-key the late game of Poma instead of LG

Considering you need a stacked roster to deal with it

I can't imagine dealing with this without EX support etc

[amber warren]

i mean you only need 3 * 6 * 18 = 324 pair for all type of this event

Will be possible

[amber warren]

and ex striker

This event make the value of tech without oae or good dps decrease tho

[rain sierra]

"Yeah, this is the best team yet! You get 0 point too!"

[amber warren]

They can do 1000 strength tho

[low lynx]

How is this comps looking?

I don’t think I have anymore damage dealers for Marlon?

[thorny grove]

Tbh great

Marlon is the only one

[ornate cobalt]

Yeahhh I don’t think that’s gonna work

Lana is destroying me

[rain sierra]

You really need that EX support for lana since you need to rush her down

[ornate cobalt]

Resetting I guess

[rain sierra]

And preferably a EX damage dealer

No heal hurts any gameplan of longevity

Had to regrid SS Blue to remove fist bump etc

[ornate cobalt]

I wish I had him

[rain sierra]

Unfortunate. He's probably the tankiest Water support yet

I suppose you can try to cheese her with evasion but OG Misty without her gradual healing feels bad

[ornate cobalt]

Yeahhh that’s a no go considering she can’t even take any damage in the first place and relying on rng is just

I reset again

[gleaming yacht]

are you barred from reusing teams

[ornate cobalt]

Yes

And what’s left to take on Marlon and Lana is absolutely dogvwater

Maybe I should take them out first instead?

[rain sierra]

Lana is definitely annoying while Marlon can be handled as long as you use Tech instead

Nessa is equally annoying with all the EQ spam

[ornate cobalt]

Here’s the roster again

These ar ethe teams I used for the other battles at 200

Is there anything I should change??

[round stone]

Lana seems useless in that team

[ornate cobalt]

Bug weak archie is why

Leech life defense crush

[ornate cobalt]

Roster

Maybe I should 2 water + 1 offtype one of them

I have the rats

[topaz sleet]

lana is beating my ass

[lone trout]

Hit my goal

I’m ranked 4037

[fair drift]

imma be real, i don't think her leech life will do much anyway

it's better to just go water gun to generate gauge

[topaz sleet]

its not about doing dps its about keeping lana alive

[lone trout]

Also Cataclytic cure on Lana

That helps her live

[fair drift]

archie's pretty chill

lana can take it without having to rely on drain tank

[topaz sleet]

i actually almost got lana with a team of hilbert ss misty and c hop but my last sync didnt crit

it wasnt a good team anyways

[ornate cobalt]

I see

[topaz sleet]

nuking lana doesnt even help cuz the sides just wipe you

[lone trout]

I’ve started getting the center down to 1 hit, then attacking the sides until right before thier second sync

[fair drift]

i really think my sync crit rate decreased in this event. i missed way too many sync crits

[lone trout]

The kill center when they try to do thier second sync

It’s annoying that Syncs cap at 80% crit

Why is it different

[topaz sleet]

cuz enemies randomly crit syncing you with 0 crit buffs would be very cringe

its annoying but i get why they did it

[forest panther]

Top #10 with 338k+ Points

Video of the run: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zxui4HodFt8

[lone trout]

They do tho

[topaz sleet]

they dont?

its literally impossible to get a sync crit with 0 crit buffs

[lone trout]

Then they always have crit buffs. At least in the hard battles that matter

[lone trout]

Can confirm

[forest panther]

hue

[bold pond]

Is it hard to get all rewards in this event?

[lone trout]

Decently hard. Less so if you have a large variety of water 5 stars

[bold pond]

These are what I have

Basically all but 6 water types

[lone trout]

You should be fine

Archie Nessa Serena Kris

May Gater and Grimsley are also workable

[bold pond]

Original Kris?

Or suicune Kris?

[lone trout]

Suicune Kris

Original Kris I just call Gater

Which then begs Kris or Silver

[ornate cobalt]

Okay archie is done again

[bold pond]

Oh so it should be easy? I didn't think this would be easy since nobody has a water weakness.

[ornate cobalt]

Duckmisty archie and ssmisty any thoughts on this for Vs misty?

[lone trout]

Just try to get runs of 100 added strengh with a main character then refine from there

These battles aren’t actually that hard in a vacuum

[ornate cobalt]

I am doing 200 each

[lone trout]

It’s the fact that you can increase thier stats stupid high for points that it starts getting hard

[ornate cobalt]

Yeah unless you lack units and half your free characters are 3 stared

[lone trout]

If you can pull that off, you should be perfectly fine

[ornate cobalt]

It becomes a problem when your roster sucks

[lone trout]

I did fine without many premiums

[ornate cobalt]

I don’t think I can do misty with 200

[ornate cobalt]

Again half my free characters are still 3*

[lone trout]

I was responding to this person

Also make them at least 4 star level 140

Well 140ish

[bold pond]

Thank you

[ornate cobalt]

Well I got misty done at 190

[ornate cobalt]

I literally have no tickets to spare

Marlon nessa Lana left again
I used the ss Kris lysandere and wallace team for nessa

[forest ferry]

Is there any water type that can paralyze?

[light star]

i heard 200k is the threshold?

[topaz sleet]

archie

and das about it

[forest ferry]

180k for all rewards

[light star]

for medal

i mean

[topaz sleet]

we don't know yet

[forest ferry]

Medal is top 10k

[light star]

for points

[topaz sleet]

top 10k when the event is over

we don't know the point threshold

the event still has 2 more weeks left

[light star]

i saw earlier someone mentioned 200k

so idk

[topaz sleet]

well they were wrong

lol

[light star]

[rain sierra]

No one is certain about the threshold until a week from now

Assuming no tryhards of 10000 suddenly barging in on last week

[light star]

[topaz sleet]

its 2 weeks i think

but yeah

[lone trout]

200k was my personal goal

I didn’t say it was the garenteed benchmark

[rain sierra]

I doubt anyone would be crazy enough to grind this for 2 weeks but hey, the world can be crazy at times

[trim beacon]

@brittle cosmos @severe nimbus @warped lion help me get higher ranking plsz all my whale besti3s in top 30 and I'm barely bottom 300

[topaz sleet]

gah damn

[lone trout]

Bro I can’t help you

You 4K above me

Use gear

[light star]

does gear make a huge difference?

[trim beacon]

I was forced to candy dojo Gloria and ex lana

And farm gear

[haughty haven]

Yes

[trim beacon]

And I didn't even end up in top 100

I feel defeated

[light star]

rip i didnt use gear on any

[lone trout]

It makes a slight difference, and sometimes that all you need

[rain sierra]

Good thing I wasn't forced to do anything

[lone trout]

Especially when you can edge the difficulty up

[rain sierra]

Already have EX on Lana and Kris before this

[light star]

i was forced to pull on lysandre

[rain sierra]

He's not even that good for this event

[lone trout]

I only unlocked level caps, leveled up, and upped the category boosts things

[light star]

he made a stage hella easier tho

[trim beacon]

Which one can I improve on pls

[solid geyser]

Is Eusine good here

[lone trout]

Y’all crazy to be investing that much

[solid geyser]

Debating some yolo multis

[lone trout]

Marlon probably

[topaz sleet]

marlon can def improve

[haughty haven]

Today Rng too bad for me
-6 acc and +6 eva still hit me

[ornate cobalt]

I just want 180k and I can’t even succeed in that

[trim beacon]

@haughty haven send pfp pls spheal

[light star]

i need that medal or the completionist in me will be in pain with a blacked out medal

[trim beacon]

What teams doe

I copied all my teams from reddit..

[topaz sleet]

dunno if this helps

[trim beacon]

i already used C SERENA

[haughty haven]

My team not that good
Yesterday Rng god helped me

[topaz sleet]

gridded c serena for flabbergast for confusion for extra points loooool

hmm

o urs is only 1/5

yeah idk

u didnt use elio anywhere lowkey slap him on there

[trim beacon]

I gotta candy her ugh

[topaz sleet]

sleep can be clutch

[trim beacon]

I have like 14 yellow candies left...

I used 2 on gloria

I want to SOB

[lone trout]

I would say Elio is better than Misty and Starmie

[forest ferry]

Man I wish my adaman is 3/5
Then I can do 1 offtype, 2 ontype run

[trim beacon]

Wtf higher than me

Are u whale

[lone trout]

More stats and sing support

[topaz sleet]

wow we used the same team for marlon lol

[haughty haven]

I’m not Whale

I have to use 4 star because dont have enough water pair

[topaz sleet]

i just ran support cloyster...

the water pulse never confused

im crying

3k points gone

[lone trout]

Daaaaaaaaang that’s a nice Marlon

Where’s the replay?

[haughty haven]

I have video but failed because Rng not help

[lone trout]

In general this is super impressive. Not many premiums

[haughty haven]

[rain sierra]

Now that I think about it, I got lucky versus Nessa. Muddy Water dropped accuracy enough for her to dodge a few Surfs

[stark eagle]

Aren't we able to just reset?

[hollow aurora]

Ya.

[rain sierra]

I suppose not willing to breakdown another team

[lone trout]

Yeah, but then they would need to find a replacement for the battke they used Serena on as well

[lone trout]

Shifts the problem

[haughty haven]

This is one of my attempts but Rock Slide hit when -6acc

[rain sierra]

Which stage is SS Kris good for? Most stages are physical and they love the rain support

[slate sphinx]

Misty

[topaz sleet]

prooobably misty tbh

[brave yoke]

Misty stage needs weather

[slate sphinx]

And mostly spatk ice

[topaz sleet]

i should've used her there

i used her on nessa instead

[stark eagle]

Well I can't check the top for at least few days
Taking it easy

[stray dust]

Lana is weak to physical or special?

[ornate cobalt]

Jesus Christ

[lone trout]

I am thoroughly impressed

[rain sierra]

I assume physical since she sets up physical reduction

[ornate cobalt]

Okay back to lana and Marlon with this roster any recommendations? Gonna do Lana

[lone trout]

Urshifu is good against Lana

[topaz sleet]

if you give her crit buffs, a max knuckle can really do good vs the cloyster

[lone trout]

I beat Lana with Irshifu and 2 eggs

[topaz sleet]

the stage was built for her methinks lol

[lone trout]

I never even used Close Combat or Max Knickle

[ornate cobalt]

Two silver eggs

[lone trout]

Although Max Knuckle would probably do good in hindsight

[rain sierra]

Yeah Glojo is mostly for Lana

Since she can debuff and hit for SE damage

[ornate cobalt]

Okay Gloria and who else?

[slate sphinx]

Mostly weak to speedrun cuz phys/sp doesn’t take a difference there, I did her with C-Marnie lul

[lone trout]

Nearly anyone

I cite again, 2 egg mons

[ornate cobalt]

I don’t have those eggs and nor the tickets to get them to silver

[lone trout]

Seadra had great buffs and bubble hit 3 targets, Blastoise confused

[ornate cobalt]

I guess maymer and siebold

[lone trout]

But they can be replaced with practical any other water types

Siebold is probably better than that Blastoise

But I used him for another battle

[ornate cobalt]

Could I put Lana to sleep

I mean holiday))

[lone trout]

Probably yes

Oh Octillery. I don’t know what that pair does

[ornate cobalt]

Going with this

[rain sierra]

Siebold not able to heal off the aoe hurts him

[ornate cobalt]

Octy lowers accuracy

[onyx crystal]

@outer whale just checking, in your run did you ever sync with Elio?

[lone trout]

That should work fine

[topaz sleet]

holiday siebold haver ⁉️

[rain sierra]

I think it's recommend for EX support to sync first. Else I feel like they are not even doing enough damage
