High Score

[forest ferry]

She has innate +1

[cunning shore]

Oho

[forest ferry]

As I said

That se mid is bait

I don't recommend picking restrain stuff at all

[hardy fog]

It's a bit more dmg then the leaf blade though even with terrain

Hmm let me try this again without the restraint stuff

[cunning shore]

I might want to run Brendan + Selene
Nuke with Brendan to take out Sides easier
Will just bullet seed as leafstorm be nerfed in that stage

[forest ferry]

Way better grid

And you can bring terrain

[cunning shore]

Me who went for Critical Propulsion

[hardy fog]

What you reckon that grid and not use shackle?

I'll try increase the str

[forest ferry]

Ye, shackle is sad damage

[cunning shore]

Restaining up 5 not better than 1 node?

[forest ferry]

The stats you are missing from theme skills very noticable

[cunning shore]

Like thism

?*

(use Leaf crit prop instead of leaf gauge)

[forest ferry]

Wait
There's enuff cost for that?

[cunning shore]

Yes

[forest ferry]

That might be better then

[cunning shore]

Rn

This is mine

[forest ferry]

Ye, it should be insane nuke
But no damage on mid

[cunning shore]

Missing out on ramming speed

Buuuut

Nuke should be better

What I plan to do

[forest ferry]

She might outnuke Brendan

[cunning shore]

Is see how both nukes fair

Brendan vs Selene

[hardy fog]

I'll try your grid

[mortal timber]

With mega she cannot

[cunning shore]

And adapt my grids to pure no nuke dps for the one that won't nuke

[mortal timber]

She is behind on everything

[cunning shore]

Hmm

[hardy fog]

Why the he'll would you take critical propulsion though I don't get it haha

Wouldn't I want more stats?

[mortal timber]

Since he got that small upgrade the gap with Selene got even wider

[forest ferry]

Yep Brendan nuke dummy strong

[mortal timber]

It's an Inertia nuke with 587 atk at max level

Not even close lmfao

[forest ferry]

It's like 50% more damage

So Selene just dead weight
Brendan + terrain is the way

[mortal timber]

She ain't dead weight but she needs surely help

[cunning shore]

Possible to get all his sync nodes?

[mortal timber]

No at max 3

[cunning shore]

Good then

[forest ferry]

If you want amped up pray leafstorm doesn't miss

[mortal timber]

Lemme share mine cuz I run inertia since day 1

I always forgot about his sun stuff

Nuking is my passion

[hardy fog]

Staggering is op

[mortal timber]

[hardy fog]

I'd take flinch

[forest ferry]

Sad part abt staggering is having to press bullet seed

[cunning shore]

Won't be leafstorming, BCBlue will fully buff speed, so will grab all dmg/stat nodes

Stage is Special attack -80%

Flinch = blue as well

So

[forest ferry]

Also I personally don't think running flinch without sync Accel is as good

Since you can just reset for the run where both mid and sides only buff

[hardy fog]

O thought we talking Ramos

[cunning shore]

That's why the birb will be full crit propulsion+dps only no nuking

[hardy fog]

You taking him to Mallow

[cunning shore]

I will copy blaze team for ramos

Ssleaf + two shit supports

[forest ferry]

My Ramos team is so bad that it's good

reset for light screen MPR + force field + no surf

[whole finch]

Can someone help me make teams? Can go off-type 12 units

[forest ferry]

Did you check pinned comps for reference?

[whole finch]

Yes i did

But last time i solely use pinned comps only, i actually get fucked up

Not to mention, no off-type on pin

[forest ferry]

Psure many people are using NCleaf

But yea other offtype gonna be rare

OK so what's your score target? Any potential strong offtype units like NCleaf?

[whole finch]

180k

[arctic quest]

NC Leaf & NC Blue are cheat codes

I have NC Blue on the gardenia team

[cunning shore]

Ghost or Fighting guard for Mallow 🤔

[forest ferry]

I used NCred as well Coz I don't have other kanto NCs

Drain punch is just reset

go ghost guard

[cunning shore]

Gotchu

[arctic quest]

Yeah 180k is a breeze with any of the NC Kantrio, I dipped immediately

[forest ferry]

it hits too hard even factoring in guard and also has heals

It's the main reason why my mallow run has less score than Ramos

Eventho I had higher str

[acoustic tendon]

you guys think I can go higher with this team? I feel like Victor damage is disappointing

it was kinda just everything I had left

[forest ferry]

Ramos : Lyra, rosa, ssleaf
Erika : NCleaf, sserika, erika
Mallow : NCblue, Brendan, selene
Gardenia : dawn, mallow, shauna
Cilan : Lblue, NCred, any grass slot

[forest ferry]

Victor solo dps suk
Run him with someone that can nuke

[acoustic tendon]

hmm all I have left is sc rosa but she's 1/5. I could candy buuut idk

[forest ferry]

......

What else did you run in other stages?

I am psure BP Barry is just waste of slot

You can potentially move around stuff

Or run offtype if you got strong options

[forest ferry]

Hmmm, you got any strong offtype dps option?

victor seems hard to move around with that roster

[acoustic tendon]

I have NC marnie, ss Hilda, irida

yeah he's kind of awkward to slot in it feels like

[forest ferry]

he's slow so it's annoying to find him a spot to shine

[hardy fog]

Dmg is real tight at 750

I wonder if I can survive without terrain though... if I just sync with selene all the way

[cunning shore]

Dmg is very tight

For you

For me

Dmg is not damaging

[hardy fog]

Hahha

[cunning shore]

Where is Victor when you need him

[forest ferry]

Maybe you can ditch Selene and run victor instead vs mallow

And run this for similar score vs erika

It's one of my first runs vs that stage

[sullen pier]

is it just me or Erika hits really hard?

[forest ferry]

And it's relatively lenient as long as enemy doesn't use moonblast

[sullen pier]

[forest ferry]

Moonblast suks

So you reset for it

Razor leaf or self buff = win basically for erika

[sullen pier]

Shauna struggles to tank even on 450 strength

Erika got hands

[acoustic tendon]

hm okay I can see if I can get higher with Victor vs mallow than what I had before

[mortal timber]

Give Shauna them iron hands gakon

[acoustic tendon]

do I need lodge Sycamore EX?

[mortal timber]

[forest ferry]

Selene is the nuke

So sycamore doesn't need ex

[acoustic tendon]

excellent

[forest ferry]

Also ignore restrain stuff

You are only spamming leaf blade

I used erika as main tank vs erika

600 str ez

Shauna subtank really good with mini potions tho and after 2 moonblast post sync erika dies so Shauna only gets to tank after that, which she can abuse her guard move and endure to live more turns

[acoustic tendon]

thank you for the help btw

[sullen pier]

i wish Mixed could deal with Erika's bs without worrying about terrain boosting moves 💀

[cunning shore]

Bro triple drain punched my zapdos

I needed to sync one more time only 🥲

Gonna change Brendan's LS since I don't need dauntless

Should I go DC2 or CS2?

I feel like maybe DC2

[hardy fog]

I have DC2 on ss leaf

[cunning shore]

She already has sundering9 though

[hardy fog]

Speed it up lol

[cunning shore]

What I want is -6 defenses better
Or cs 2 better

[hardy fog]

Who is nuking?

Can run it on pomatool

[cunning shore]

Brendan Nuking

Only reason he's on the team lol

If I ran it correctly

-6 def is better

[graceful pike]

no debuffs PAIN

[cunning shore]

Man

I nearly lost to a swift

Nearly 60k
With shit DPS
I'll take it

360
What are the grids for ramos stage?

[forest ferry]

Here

Leaf is CS2

Lyra is water guard

Rosa is grass guard

[cunning shore]

Oh? Why no toxic power 5 😮

[forest ferry]

You spam razor leaf most case

Coz team has shit gauge

Rosa wants to spam giga drain , especially post sync else she just dies

You do use FP occasionally tho

[cunning shore]

Hmm i was testing
Sycamore does massive dmg to mid
But dies too quick

But will probably do your team

[forest ferry]

Mine can live 2nd sync if lucky

So I am assuming 400ish str is still possible

[cunning shore]

Gotchu

Well

This is 400str

So it's doable

Unfortunately

I missed a quad

This is the result

[forest ferry]

So close

[whole finch]

Well that's something

[arctic quest]

nicely done

[cunning shore]

Crit to kill off all my hopes

[red pendant]

Alright, first results are in

3 of the 5 teams I made are struggling, and for various different reasons

[cunning shore]

You just need 3 stages to do a grand total of your first 2 stages

You can lower difficulty

[red pendant]

for the Vs Erika team: both Erika and Lyra take too much damage while Brendan doesn't do enough damage fast enough

[haughty haven]

@hardy fog here is some funny tip for sleep

[red pendant]

for the Vs Gardenia team: Dawn takes WAY too much damage while Selene barely does any damage at all

[haughty haven]

If you can quad sleep after you sleep enemy, enemy cant use any move

[red pendant]

for the Vs Ramos team: I...just don't know what I am doing wrong there

but it definitely FEELS like my un-EX'd 1/5 SC Rosa might be too weak?

Anyway, here are my problem teams

Vs Ramos: +300 Strength
Vs Erika: +200 Strength
Vs Gardenia: +250 Strength

any ideas what I can improve?

[ornate turret]

just lower the str, you only need 30k/stage. 200 each should be enough

[red pendant]

I am doing 200 for Vs Erika

and I am STILL struggling

[ornate turret]

do the other 2 with 200 first, then lower str for erika if needed
30k/stage, multiplier x3 so you only need 10k points
200str gives 9000 points, you can even go for 150str

[haughty haven]

Yes, and at lower str you can beat stage way faster for more point

[cunning shore]

I need to find a way to beat the sides quick in my ramos stage

Because after I take out mid

1 Hyperbeam or EQ destroys the whole squaf

55 hits again kekw

[cunning shore]

Update for @forest ferry : you can go even further than 400 str
If you get lucky enough

[red pendant]

...I will do +250 Ramos first

Damn, +250 Ramos isn't working either

and I refuse to go lower than +250 if I can't use Sun

[ornate turret]

what is wrong with you
you're not aiming for leaderboard or anything, just 180k, I already said 200str gives 9000 points, you only need 1000 points from other sources and you'll get 10k, sun gives 1000 points but you don't even need that, with x3 multi = 30k points overall. 3 stages = 90k points
ramos and erika stages are harder than the other 3, everyone's doing them with lower str than the other 3

[red pendant]

yes, I am aiming for 180k

which is why I cannot go below 250 if I don't have sun

[haughty haven]

Then why try higher str

[red pendant]

because I need the higher strength to reach 180k in the first place

[haughty haven]

[sullen pier]

doubt on stages being less dumb

[forest ferry]

How much score?

Also that god level luck

Your Lyra still at 2/2 reflect

[graceful pike]

I keep forgetting

Stupid apple has earthquake

Fuuuuuuuu

[forest ferry]

I always kill the apple first coz hyperbeam is easier to manage

I might retry Ramos run if it's over 75k pts

Not worth my sanity for less than that

[graceful pike]

CHECKMATED

[graceful pike]

Ramos 560
Erika 900
Mallow 700
Gardenia 1000
Clian 800

Rosa is my best gurl

[forest ferry]

ok absolutely not worth losing my sanity

[red pendant]

...nope, even with only +200 strength, I am STILL unable to beat Ramos with my current team

and I definitely refuse to go below 200

[cunning shore]

It's possible to push further with that luck
Not that I will even attempt

[haughty haven]

[graceful pike]

@haughty haven my ticket number 60 now

beautiful

like you said

[ornate turret]

You don’t even need 200 str
you need 30k per stage, so you only need 10k base score

[graceful pike]

I can definitely get 470k

[red pendant]

how did you do that?

[cunning shore]

If you see zinfogel's post
He beat it on 120 str and got 34k

[forest ferry]

well if I somehow get aura cyn tmrw and I get another ssleaf before event ends , I'll retry
Till then I slack

[cunning shore]

You need even less

[red pendant]

how did he do that?

[haughty haven]

Uh beat the stage

[red pendant]

inb4 I won't get as many points as you guys

[cunning shore]

He's got 30+k in all 3 stays with less than 200str

Only one of them did he use sun

You only want 180k

Meaning

[ornate turret]

read the graphic for str/score next time

[cunning shore]

You can go 150str and still get 30k

[haughty haven]

For 61 ticket

[ornate turret]

100str gives 5000 points + 5000 from other sources (clear time, dmg, condition...) = 10000
final score 10000 x 3 = 30000
you need 90k from 3 stages, it's doable with 150 str

[graceful pike]

60 now actually

[cunning shore]

Now I need to copy your Erika run

[haughty haven]

470k now ?

[graceful pike]

copy the Ramos run

you will feel pain

[graceful pike]

yeap

[cunning shore]

Don't got the units for it

[graceful pike]

added 60 points to JUST enough

[haughty haven]

Nice

[graceful pike]

and well

the damage does enough

like

main issue here was damage

[haughty haven]

I just want to try some tech so not ruin my ticket

[graceful pike]

Like

[haughty haven]

[graceful pike]

I had to revise

some

grids

Barry with Shocking Slowdown to make Rosa nuke harder

was one of the biggest changes I made

for real

but getting randomly critted because no THUD is

assinine

[cunning shore]

Where did your explaination of that run go

[haughty haven]

And Surf

[graceful pike]

EVERY SURF

[haughty haven]

[graceful pike]

is a pain in my soul

[cunning shore]

Get infinite light screen, problem solved

[haughty haven]

I dont use Lyra anymore

I dont want to deal with Surf

[red pendant]

I knew it!

I knew I shouldn't have listened

[sullen pier]

Erika sucks ass without NC Leaf i have to move Lyra to her stage

[red pendant]

I didn't get 50k points for that

[graceful pike]

infinite lightscreen ecks deee

[red pendant]

I only got a miserable 35k points

[ornate turret]

and what about it, you only need 180k total

[red pendant]

yeah, and I won't reach that 180k

[haughty haven]

My 2 30% Potion never active so i never trust it

[graceful pike]

potion?

[sullen pier]

luck issue

[graceful pike]

I didn't even need it

[haughty haven]

30% suck

[graceful pike]

no need for potion

the light screen MPR tho

[cunning shore]

. For me to go back to

[graceful pike]

that was ASS

[haughty haven]

I mean about 30%

[graceful pike]

also

the synthesis thingy

ARGHHHHH

[ornate turret]

so 125k + 30k + 30k is < 180k to you

[haughty haven]

Do you know how many try for me to get 1 Grassy Terrain Mpr ?

[red pendant]

that's assuming I'd get 30k from the other stages as well

[haughty haven]

||A whole day||

[haughty haven]

And it very easy

[ornate turret]

with 150str

at this point it's skill issue, not even the team

[main pulsar]

That’s freaking wild

[graceful pike]

oh yeah

@onyx crystal updated XD

[onyx crystal]

Yeah I saw the entry in the form :3

[haughty haven]

Just to get 120k pts

[main pulsar]

Hullo sages how was your break

Assuming you took one

Just haven’t seen for awhile

[onyx crystal]

Mostly busy with work & irl. Still kind of am.

[main pulsar]

I shee

[onyx crystal]

Elek submitted a clear to the in-depth sheet, so I'll be adding that now.

[graceful pike]

don't do it XD

[haughty haven]

I just improve a little

Bc i dont want to get 151 ticket

[graceful pike]

also

sages

[haughty haven]

[graceful pike]

do i have to

submit video?

[onyx crystal]

@haughty haven oh lmk when you want your in-depth clear updated, I can just grab links from discord if its easier.

[graceful pike]

I kinda don't have any footage

[main pulsar]

I will now grind high score

Until they powerboost Olivia

The second they do you can bet imma grind that f2p darach clear

[onyx crystal]

Videos aren't required.

[graceful pike]

then

let me just

type in the stuff

[main pulsar]

Or gordie but gordie has a lower chance

[red pendant]

okay, was able to get 4k on Gardenia

now I don't need to worry about using high strength on Erika

[ornate turret]

you can always reset a single fight to get higher score, it's not that big of a deal, rather than wasting time theorizing

[cunning shore]

Think I will struggle 😄

[royal tiger]

https://fxtwitter.com/t3yd3fNWscnpBrL/status/1745438512047132885 lmao.

[main pulsar]

What the 9 minute clear

[cunning shore]

What's the final score tho

[main pulsar]

Why would you do this

Is it just a funny clear

[outer whale]

You know what irritates me?

It's 09:48.99

[royal tiger]

they didnt say 😦

https://fxtwitter.com/t3yd3fNWscnpBrL/status/1745290854959567047 this was his last attempt (NC Blue died)

[main pulsar]

J hi ow much strength is that

[cyan tusk]

It’s not even worth it bc there’s a cap for multiple hits

Smth like 90 hits for 3K points kind of

[onyx crystal]

@outer yew when you get a chance, can you submit a score screencap of the best score screen with all teams on it? It lets me know the tactics set. Thanks.

You can just ping me, if the form doesn't have your previous entry.

[cunning shore]

Moonblast just deletes Shauna holy shit

[main pulsar]

She’s a physical tank anyway

[royal tiger]

1k strength

[main pulsar]

Well there’s that at least

[onyx crystal]

for those not aware, there's a HS Clears tab in the grading doc now with links to grids, vids, etc.

[main pulsar]

Also that prolly took so long because theees no power play

[cyan tusk]

@outer yew thank you for your video, now I know where to get the 5K points I need

[onyx crystal]

oh wait, that screen only tells me the order placed on the team not the tactics

[graceful pike]

what map is this

[cyan tusk]

There’s the video up on YT

Don’t know if it can help

[forest ferry]

Ramos

[graceful pike]

oh right

[graceful pike]

Oh yeah I did add the detailed doc in

[onyx crystal]

That will get taxing, if I need to do that for each entry.

[onyx crystal]

Gotcha.

[onyx crystal]

Your pomatool teams don't specify the right ex and move level btw.

Is your leaf moltres got support cake?

[hollow prism]

It probably has to if he’s doing 1000 with HSyca and Victor

I’m doing it with cake and it’s taking a while, might need to swap out the grid as well

[cunning shore]

I lay here

Crying slowly

As my moltres goes to waste

[hollow prism]

That’s why I was about to get potion MPRs instead of extend sunny

[hardy fog]

No endurance lol?

[cunning shore]

Potions doesn't mean anything

[hollow prism]

Because I’m not even using that shit. If I set sun as the last move before sync 3 it runs out just as Sync 4 hits

[cunning shore]

You get 1 shotted by HB

[hollow prism]

Potions mean A LOT for H Syca taking a moonblast

[hardy fog]

I took endurance lol

[cunning shore]

Did you do 900str too?

[hardy fog]

Yea

[hollow prism]

H syca with Fairy guard, and double healing with a beefy potion can probably take a few moonblasts

[cunning shore]

I feel like I need another sync rather than Endurance

[hollow prism]

Which is good because i always get like 3 of them and no Twofer procks

[cunning shore]

Because even if i have endurance

I don't do enough dmg

[hardy fog]

Are you doing 1000

[cunning shore]

900str

Had I managed to keep erika alive

I woulda won

But ugh

[hardy fog]

It was plenty of dmg

[rigid steppe]

is your moltres 3/5 EXR?

[cunning shore]

Yes

My gears are grass oriented
No fire boosts

[hardy fog]

@hollow prism is freaking telling us about his 3/5 sycamore when we are using the budget Shauna

😂

[cunning shore]

Budget Shauna bruda

Only sycamore i used

Was bulbasaur

And he kicked ass

Ngl

[rigid steppe]

yeah bulbasaur was great for ramos for poison weak

[hardy fog]

Are you syncing with leaf first?

Then Shauna?

[hollow prism]

Nah shauna first prob

[cunning shore]

Leaf Shauna leaf

[hardy fog]

I just took that tip from Rosa Stan

[cunning shore]

Should I give gears to Leaf instead

[hollow prism]

What? Why?

[cunning shore]

And screw the grass girls

😂

[hardy fog]

And I just focus dps left which was way easier

[cunning shore]

By the time I sync with Shauna, i get her shield mpr and mid has -2 rebuff

[hollow prism]

Don’t you want extra dmg on leaf tho

[hardy fog]

Bro my gear was solid though MC + Grass

[cunning shore]

Given that my Leaf is Role EX

[hardy fog]

Which meant both

[cunning shore]

Yeah not blessed with such gears

[hollow prism]

Leaf’s sync could have bridged the difference on the side there

Especially at 900 and not 1000

[cunning shore]

I got 900 feathers but I ain't gonna go do that

[hardy fog]

This guy been holding out

[cunning shore]

I tried both, it doesn't seem to matter much

[hardy fog]

I have 9 feathers

[cunning shore]

I just literally farm feathers on all my off days now

Fire HSE taught me a lot

[hardy fog]

Bro a few more tries you will get it

[hollow prism]

Fire HSE taught me to not wing it

😭

[ornate turret]

training area with rally. better to farm feathers

[hardy fog]

Not triple para proc like in electric haha

[cunning shore]

Guess i will do that, maybe the skill gear is what's holding me out of the 900str clear

[mortal timber]

Fire hs taught me that 3 days straight to beat 1000 str kiawe aren’t worth lmao

[hollow prism]

The problem is not shit skill gear needs pins

[hardy fog]

Yea I had 80 attack for leaf

[mortal timber]

Eventually I did it but heck it was rough

[hardy fog]

And Erika

[forest ferry]

yall actually minmaxing skill gear while I take any gear as long as I see +80 offense and element

[mortal timber]

Eh stats matter a lot there my friend

[forest ferry]

tho, that hycamore skill gear was life saver

[mortal timber]

Defenses and hp really can be the game changer

Think about last time and silver living 2 syncs

2!!!

[hardy fog]

I coped with Ethan 😂

So no to 2 sync

[cunning shore]

What themes does Shauna have

[rigid steppe]

grass, kalos, rival

[cunning shore]

Or rather does she have battle facility foe 🥹

[rigid steppe]

are the big ones

sadly no

[cunning shore]

Sadge

Got a really good one

Kanto Johto Battle facility Foe

[mortal timber]

I got the Evelyn skill gear

Back in fire hs

Fire Kalos Battle Facility Foe

[cunning shore]

I want something to share between NCleaf and the 2 grass ladies

[hollow prism]

Leaf doesn’t need it tbh

[cunning shore]

Well you say that

But she's not finishing her job well

😄

[hollow prism]

She’s not the one who needs to take the hits at least

So you can give her the Physical gear

[hardy fog]

There is def a difference between Shauna and Hsycamore 3/5 on grass hs though haha

[hollow prism]

Because what’s erika going to do, attack your physical defense?

Wait why would she be taking hits though

[hardy fog]

She will take hits at some point

[graceful pike]

HYPER BEAMMMMMMMMMM

[graceful pike]

yes

[graceful pike]

imma adjust then

well shit

i can't edit my answers

it's joever

ripperino

can you adjust a few things for me sages?

[onyx crystal]

I'd just gather them in a discord post and send it to me.

[graceful pike]

for the move levels

there's only a few adjustments

[onyx crystal]

the move levels I got from the screenshot

[graceful pike]

yeahhh

[hardy fog]

I think the str was wrong as well last time I check

[graceful pike]

that

[graceful pike]

mine?

[hardy fog]

Yea

[graceful pike]

i uhh

upgraded

the clears

the strs are correct

[hardy fog]

I think I saw 900 for ss leaf clear

[graceful pike]

thanks. was gonna reference that.

[onyx crystal]

where are they wrong? in the doc?

[graceful pike]

are you confusing NC Leaf for SS Leaf or something?

because I got the strengths quite correct

i should know because i went through hell for all of them

[graceful pike]

not mine

[hardy fog]

900 mallow

[graceful pike]

i never got cilan to 1000

someone mixed the scores up

[graceful pike]

it's still here XD

[hardy fog]

😂

[outer whale]

@hardy fog oh i should ask, was my advice actually decent, or was I a fraud?

[cunning shore]

Down to 400 feathers already:D

[hardy fog]

I tried it. But I changed it up slightly for more mid dmg

[graceful pike]

anyways

if sages needs me to provide adjustments in a discord post imma do it

[onyx crystal]

I forgot to edit the values.

So they are fixed now, naruto.

[hardy fog]

The thing is… you need pins or they just go like water lol

[cunning shore]

Ain't no way am using dem pins

[hardy fog]

I only pinned bracelet haha went through like 500 for other gear

[outer whale]

I gave so much advice to others, and then folks surpass me in scores.... Probably for the best, HSE makes me start doing needless upgrades

[hardy fog]

Often the best coach is not the best player 😉

[chilly flame]

Don’t you do LG

[hardy fog]

Like I can’t remember half the stuff you are thinking about when you look at these teams I just wanna play 😂

[chilly flame]

That also has some pointless upgrades in there

[haughty haven]

Imagine dying bc of Spike Shield

And ofc HyperBeam come

[hardy fog]

Hollly did you finish?

[chilly flame]

That hyper beam boutta end ur life lmfao

[hardy fog]

You look way ahead

[haughty haven]

No

HyperBeam not end this run

[outer whale]

LG is different, LG has leeway on team builds and being able to sacrifice upgrades for duos..... HSE is just... "Upgrade to get better score"

[haughty haven]

Razor Leaf Crit end this

[hardy fog]

Bro I’m telling y’all take endurance 😂

Don’t be hatin

[outer whale]

Endurance is a lifesaver

[chilly flame]

Who has endurance on that team

Leaf?

[hardy fog]

Leaf and Shauna

[outer whale]

shauna and Leaf

[cunning shore]

900 -> 79 feathers

Noice

[hardy fog]

@haughty haven I actually dps left and nuke mid

[chilly flame]

What the hell did you use that many feathers for

[hardy fog]

Then you laugh at hyper beam with 2 endurance

[outer whale]

be a chad like me and put normal guard to survive three hyper beams.

[chilly flame]

Yea but when vileplume uses back to back moonblasts it ain’t gonna be pretty

[cunning shore]

To get a gear that helps NC Leaf and the 2 grass girls

[outer whale]

just reset if they use moonblast, and also if NCLeaf doesn't OHKO on 2nd sync, reset

[cunning shore]

I got 2 gears

[outer whale]

the goal is to not give them a chance to sync

[cunning shore]

Moonblast is flare blitz from last HSE

[graceful pike]

OH YEAH

[haughty haven]

And ofc when i get a good run, i got rafa

[graceful pike]

we all

imagine

getting

rafa'd

THREE TIMES

in one run

[outer whale]

if you KO mid before they sync, razor leaf only does like 140 damage or so

[graceful pike]

and you still win afterwards

[hollow prism]

I was going to say you can just take the Razor leafs

It’s like worse snarl

[outer whale]

unless it crits

[hardy fog]

Just look like a genius and time those blocks for moonblast

[hollow prism]

Crits don’t exist

[haughty haven]

It always crit

1000 crit Razor Leaf baby

[hollow prism]

It isn’t real it can’t hurt me

[hardy fog]

The razor leaf are lame def get rid of them lol

Save your endurance

[graceful pike]

not gonna lie

i use

ss erika and

one razor leaf crit is bad enough already

imagine

TWO

BACK TO BACK

DEATH COMES ARRIVING ON A MIDNIGHT TRAIN!!

[haughty haven]

Wish my Shauna has Fairy Guard

[graceful pike]

where your cookeis

also

you going for 470k?

[haughty haven]

100 Cookie and 0 Fairy Guard

[graceful pike]

ripperino

[graceful pike]

damn you might actually get ove my score

[haughty haven]

Hmmmmm where my Guard Cookie

[graceful pike]

bulu made me reconsider grass guard

so many times

like

no stoic?

i got down from

1k2 to 600

i am in deep trouble

[oak fulcrum]

Oof, if I could trade you some of mine I absolutely would

[main pulsar]

You sync with grass?

[haughty haven]

Bc i dont have Fairy Guard cookie i would love to do higher

[main pulsar]

I thought it was only leaf all the way

[haughty haven]

But at 850str

[graceful pike]

rebuff

[haughty haven]

800 Moonblast with LightScreen

[main pulsar]

Also peekuo why do use lyra

You lose 1k elsewhere

Da Solarize

[graceful pike]

[haughty haven]

I lost from Ramos team

[graceful pike]

ramos team is mad cook

[haughty haven]

Bc i just know this tech and it so much easy lol

[graceful pike]

what tech

[haughty haven]

Quad Sleep when you Sync

[graceful pike]

o shit

[haughty haven]

Make eneny cant queue move

[cunning shore]

What was the score

[main pulsar]

Oh so you mean you don’t wanna lose Ramos for lyra sun

I see

[haughty haven]

Just 72k sadly

[main pulsar]

No sun

[haughty haven]

1/5 H Sycamore cant help team survive

[graceful pike]

true

[haughty haven]

But it get way better score than with Lyra lol

[graceful pike]

if he was

2/5

maybe

or ex R

the aoe rebuff

madness

also pots

can't forget about the pots

[main pulsar]

Well I mean if you could do high str with lyra

But since you wan Ramos that’s a nono

[haughty haven]

Hell no

Surf

[main pulsar]

Woosh

[haughty haven]

And Sycamore just have 2 Potion

[graceful pike]

@haughty haven so you aiming for

470k?

[graceful pike]

water guard + force field + light screen

ecks dee

also using bp barry as a main tank is just

painful

[main pulsar]

Reset for no surf

[graceful pike]

[haughty haven]

@graceful pike look at this

[graceful pike]

ONE MORE

[haughty haven]

[graceful pike]

so

[main pulsar]

Reset so ludicolo doesn’t move

[graceful pike]

470 it is?

damn i might have to cook a bit more just to make sure

let me have this one

[haughty haven]

Dont worry, i cant lol

[main pulsar]

Pykuo you’ve already cooked so hard

[outer yew]

I updated my Screenshot Best Score on my form, sorry for the inconvenience

[main pulsar]

Like breh

[haughty haven]

And is this your ? @graceful pike

[outer yew]

You're welcome and good luck if you aim for top 1

[graceful pike]

[haughty haven]

I dont use Reddit

[hardy fog]

Kirby I don't know what you were asking

Man I swear these mpr % are not what is stated

[forest ferry]

Wdym

It's totally accurate

[hardy fog]

Like 30% means close to 1 in 3

[forest ferry]

mpr3 means you use TM 100 times and get it back 3 times

[hardy fog]

I'm reseting like 6-7 times for 1 refresh

[forest ferry]

Just as the description

[hardy fog]

lol stop trolling I actually believed you

For a moment

[forest ferry]

What I am stating is purely from experience

[hardy fog]

Well I'm feeling the same

[forest ferry]

And the number in description backs it up

[cunning shore]

Nearly lost

I got mo crit on sync

This after sync from leaf lol

Gears definitely helped Leaf a lot

[forest ferry]

we don't have any grass unit with acc down?

Coz NCleaf can abuse it if it exists

[cunning shore]

SSLeaf 5/5

No

Wait

Who was it

Nvm I was looking at volkner

Earlier today

Bahaha

Raichu Volkner

[forest ferry]

well I am still malding that we got 3 top tier electric units after electric HS is over

Plz don't remind me

[cunning shore]

400k+ Squad
I joined you again

[forest ferry]

oh yea actually 4 coz clemont grid expansion

[cunning shore]

Can take pictures with @hardy fog now

[cunning shore]

Yeah I was so annoyed

Why not before hse

In order
400
900
700
1000
750

[hardy fog]

Nice work

[cunning shore]

Now
I definitely won't try anymore unless I somehow get a better grass unit somewhere somehow sometime

[forest ferry]

NCblue pulling you down

[onyx crystal]

okay thanks. If any tactics are wrong lmk

[forest ferry]

Or selene

[cunning shore]

Ain't no one can push these two strikers

He's done god's work in there

[graceful pike]

nice to see you adapting my 900 str on erika

[forest ferry]

Seems like top 3 this time are mixred, adaman and bulu

Missing even one of em means offtype

[graceful pike]

i have all 3

and still offtype

[forest ferry]

Well Ncleaf is technically ontype

[graceful pike]

no grass so

[forest ferry]

well
I should say more off <60k pts in a stage

[outer yew]

They are good, thank you

[cunning shore]

aside from weather and terrain, how good is Bulu?

[forest ferry]

very bulky

My bulu run ended with all 3 units in full HP

[cunning shore]

Bruh

[forest ferry]

I am just lazy to retry coz it'll put me in ugly number of PUs

[cunning shore]

I shoulda got gems and selected Bulu

😂

[forest ferry]

well it must be 3/5 bulu

[cunning shore]

Support candy is my only over 5 candies

So not a big deal

[forest ferry]

1/5 doesn't seem like as much gamechanger

Coz main tiles are endure and team restore

[cunning shore]

Actually 4, I used 2 for NCRosa

I forgot

Lol

My point was

If it's a good support in general

Deserves investment

[forest ferry]

Should have gambled in triple banner

Best banner of the year

Excluding MFs

[cunning shore]

I'll go take a look at those streak bundles

Idk
I'll just wait and see till final day

[forest ferry]

Unless you are hardcore CS or ube player that bulu isn't seeing lot of usage outside LGs anyways even if you get it

[plush raven]

Damn, amazing. Mind sharing grids?

[forest ferry]

I doubt 420k would drop out of T50

[cunning shore]

Ouf
Which stage do you want xD

[cunning shore]

I want top 100, keep my streak alive

I do think I will drop out of 50

[forest ferry]

I am consistently maintaining streak of never hitting t100

[cunning shore]

No way only one guy gets 500+k

[forest ferry]

Bicio didn't get 500k yet?

I remember seeing them at 495k few hrs ago

[cunning shore]

Nope

Still 495k

Plus there are others who didn't even start

Like Runner

[graceful pike]

yeap

[cunning shore]

I don't remember where i was in water event (top 100 I know but i don't recall above or below 50)
Last 2 I was top 50

So I draw a good boundary
I just want top 100

That way I don't have to mald either

Anyone finds super easy Mallow Clear
Lmk 👀
Otherwise
No resetting

[hollow prism]

I have Bicio’s exact setup planned (I’m not copying he just beat me to it) but I got 5k more on Adaman than he did so it’s def 500k viable.

We still don’t know what tf the JP player was on though because so far our setup makes the most logical sense

[silent urchin]

yo

Lodge Blue is trash

this guy refuses to cooperate when i need him to and when its negligible he'll finally actually flinch someone

jfc

ive been going at cilan for like almost 2 hours now

[onyx crystal]

lmk how your flinch game is when you've been going at a stage for 5 days :3

[hollow prism]

That’s why you need the raise flinch chance tile

The alternative is ripping out your hair

Also 2 hours on a stage is a low amount of time for me

[outer whale]

so if Rafa is the LG version.... is it...
Quartz'd in HS? or Santos'd?

[hollow prism]

I’ll spend 10 if i REALLY want a super optimal run

[outer whale]

Personally, I kind want to say get Yabbo Dabbo'd

[silent urchin]

oh god, something coined after my name to mimic my misery

[hollow prism]

Runner’s gotten 1st in 2 HS

[silent urchin]

i can just imagine the massacre

[outer whale]

so..... get Ran on?

[hollow prism]

I mean

[silent urchin]

ok i finally did it

all i needed to do was complain, nice

[onyx crystal]

this happened to me as well

[silent urchin]

kek

HSE is a different level of rage than gauntlet

[onyx crystal]

typed out my salt, and got the clear a few min later

[silent urchin]

nice

at least with LG if im annoyed at a clear im tryna do, i can skip it and go to a different clear i have planned so i dont feel hopeless

with HSE its just 5 stages of tryna push ur roster to the limits

[outer whale]

yea, HSE is a rage I actually try to avoid, LG is just annoying pain

[silent urchin]

tbh if i can get past 400k im not gonna go any further

this shit is painful

or like top 100 rank or smth

[silent urchin]

valid

[cyan tusk]

700
1000
750
1000
820

Sorry I was at work

[forest ferry]

Gratz

now 550k when?

[haughty haven]

Just fix my ticket number too

[cyan tusk]

Never

I’m ok for now

How does it work to update the pin? Do I have to submit it again?

Or I can just perform best sport (ping Sages) for the update

[onyx crystal]

if you open the form, it should just have what you submitted before

the excel tells me Jo updated his entry at 11:14am

and its just name, link, and score. Not like its hard to submit 3 values

[cyan tusk]

I wasn’t logged, I did it now

[onyx crystal]

updated

[graceful pike]

YES

good shit brotha

[cyan tusk]

Nope, aiming for 500K personal achievement

[haughty haven]

@onyx crystal sr for pinging you, but how do i edit old Submisson

[onyx crystal]

when you open the form does it show you the entries you made?

[outer yew]

[haughty haven]

No, it doesn't

[outer whale]

same problem as me

[onyx crystal]

Hmm, Elek did it earlier.

Pykuo I don't expect you to resubmit your full clear every single update.

[haughty haven]

Can you change mine, i have my nice number ticket and just some change

Total pts: 461,094
Ramos: 470 -> 500
Erika: 700 -> 850
Mallow: 600 -> 650
Cilan: 800 -> 830

[hardy fog]

Not touching this again unless I get lucky with Mix Red pull. 😂

Ramos 460
Erika 900
Mallow 725
Gardenia 750
Cilan 750

[hardy fog]

Congrats bro! Hard grind for Ramos for sure 😂

[shy flax]

Anyway I can change my teams to improve them? I wasn’t really sure who to put on Erika, and I’m not sure if Brendan is the best choice for Gardenia

[hardy fog]

O sheet 1/5 adaman

I retract everything I said 😂

[forest ferry]

Offtype dps > lycamore if you have strong option

Lycamore suks

[hardy fog]

It's hard when your roster is clearly tailored to LG with min investment haha

[forest ferry]

1/5 adaman moment

[onyx crystal]

Did the teams change?

[hardy fog]

I don't believe pykuo changed

Same team new str

[forest ferry]

I think the mallow team can do higher str

Or free up mallow for terrain eggmon and move mallow to cilan and sserika to erika and replace rosa

Rosa is kind of not that good without Lyra, even then it's not high str material

I found OG erika better than rosa vs erika

[hardy fog]

I reckon ss lyra and brendan needs to be separated

[cyan tusk]

I can actually grid more points honestly

But I don’t want lol

[hardy fog]

On the number 1 team 530k, they must be hitting 100k without nc leaf

[cyan tusk]

Ramos and mallow I ended up with the whole team Alive

Number one imo has 5/5 overwhelm Victor which opens up different lineups

[hardy fog]

The thing that sucks about Ramos is rolling for absolute no surf

I don't think it's a hard stage just real roll focus

[cyan tusk]

Honestly was not that bad

[forest ferry]

They might be doing 120k both cilan, gardenia and Ramos

[cyan tusk]

Need to roll for light screen mprs!

[forest ferry]

So NCleaf can still do 90kish and pull the weight

Tho is 90k range even possible with 1 offtype?

[hardy fog]

Looking at Bicio 83k I reckon no

It's 7k diff lol

[forest ferry]

Hmmmm

Maybe 5/5 victor

Coz he drops atk

Can slot him in mallow stage with bulu if that's the case

And Sonia is moved to erika stage with bicio's same core

[haughty haven]

The team still the same

[forest ferry]

It also lets ssleaf to grid more nuke or dps instead of gridding for noxious hit

Unless I am missing smth

[hardy fog]

I couldn't do enough dmg at 725 and I regridded Leaf lol you won't guess what tile

[hollow prism]

I wish I could beat you to the 500k score but I have to wait for the Iono coin to 3/5 Sonia (Imagine using Golds on a Non MF strike 🤡)I’ll see you in top 3 lol

Mallow will be a victory lap though because i’m willing to bet SS Leaf makes that clear super easy lol, Potions plus Acc debuffs

It’s Ramos i’m terrified of

I have no idea how tf you ended up getting 700 with that team, i thought the limit would be like 500

[cyan tusk]

Not using accuracy debuffs

In my clear

Bc you spam razor leaf for aoe debuffs so you do more damage with sonia sync

And also you survive after bc of debuffed sides

[cyan tusk]

Also, I need to fix it lmao

3 more tickets

[haughty haven]

GL with ticket

[hardy fog]

@onyx crystal sorry to ping but if you can help me remove 8000 points in the pins I would feel better 😂 I'm 440848 not 448848

[onyx crystal]

downgrade complete

[hardy fog]

Thank you 😊

[hardy fog]

@hollow prism so you are just waiting for one more pair? Other 4 runs complete?

[hollow prism]

No the Leaf clear is eating me alive and I haven’t started on Lyra Rosa VMallow for Ramos yet

And if i really want to go all the way I can get a better Gardenia score

[hardy fog]

O you doing the 1000 nc leaf clear?

[hollow prism]

But my Adaman score is better probably because I can survive higher strengths, i have tons of defenses and two 5% Move DR passives

Yes

[cyan tusk]

Oh btw my leaf is caked

Don’t know if this helps

[hollow prism]

So most of my clears will probably be like 20-30str higher than what Bicio did

Yeah mine is too

I need to regrid leaf for Potions

Because Sycamore never survives longer than Erika

And i don’t use the extended sun at all

[hardy fog]

O why you reinvent the wheel

Haha

[frank shore]

With this team, who would you suggest to replace adaman/leafeon? Sadly, i dont have them

[hollow prism]

The sun doesn’t last long enough

I used leaf’s flare blitz as the last move before sync 3 and it expired right before sync 4

[hardy fog]

Use ss erika

[hollow prism]

SS Erika is with Adaman on Cilan

I don’t need the extra damage anyway

[shy flax]

I don’t necessarily mind using tech candies on Adaman to push higher, though he wouldn’t be my first choice

[hollow prism]

Victor overtime kills the right side, and 2 leaf syncs and 2 fire blasts puts mid in range of like 2 more fire blasts

So i’ll double sync, take one erika hit, then kill it, then kill right, then take one razor leaf and sync a 5th time with leaf. That’s my strategy

[hollow prism]

It’s not a bad idea, because even if he’s not choice #1 he’s surely in the top 5, probably even 3

Because he’s just that strong

If you don’t candy him here then you might as well leave him 1/5

[shy flax]

Hmm…I’m not sure, the Lodge blue + adaman + SS Erika team seems pretty popular. Maybe Brendan?

If you share your roster / draft teams I could maybe give some suggestions

[hollow prism]

Adaman’s not easy to replace

[hardy fog]

If adaman is 3/5 it frees up Erika and it would shift everything for more points

[shy flax]

Off type, like who? Move Brendan to the Ramos team?

I was debating grabbing Victor from the select scout but I would prefer to get SS Piers

[shy flax]

Huh? But everyone is using Lodge Blue Adaman SS Erika against Cilan

Or is that only because they have better limited options for the other teams that I don’t 😅

[hardy fog]

We can plan it out first give me 10min I'll help you

[frank shore]

Sure. I havent drafted any team yet. Looking at your team, i can emulate the composition, except for Adaman/Leafeon.

I just started last anni, right before NC Kantrio.

[shy flax]

Hmm maybe we’re in similar boats then. I’m guessing you also lack SC Rosa, SC Sonia, Mix Red, and holiday sycamore. Though missing Adaman is also a big difference…

[frank shore]

I got my Mix Red 5/5

And H!Sycamore 2/5 and currently stashing 30 supp. coins & 28 gold coins, usable to upgrade him to 3/5 if highly needed. (Saving for NC Calem & SSA Cynthia)

[hardy fog]

Back

just seeing where you big points could be with 3/5 Adaman

[frank shore]

@shy flax These are my Grass Pairs, Sun Setters, and selected pairs that has been EX’d.

Also i have resources to get 2-3 pairs EX’d now.

Sorry for the tag.

[hardy fog]

@rough bluff
Cilan - Adaman / LBlue / Mallow can hit 100K - you can refer to pin for Jo and my score. That frees up SS Erika
Erika - Shauna / NC Leaf / SS Erika can do 75K OR you can try Lyra instead of SS Erika, Pykuo did 73K with that.

That's 160K - 170K already

[oak fulcrum]

Lyra is a sun setter with Solarize on grid, don’t forget about her

[frank shore]

Thank you for the reminder!

[hardy fog]

Ramos - Brendan / Ramos core should allow you to do 60K. Maybe NC Blue if you have?
That frees up SS Leaf.

You can move her to Mallow - Selene, SS Ace, SS Leaf. I dont think you will do less than 85K.

So we are at 300K already

That leaves us with Gardenia - Dawn and SS Lyra as nuker. Need a second DPS

So something like this maybe? @shy flax

Ramos - Brendan / Ramos / NC Blue - 55K - 60K
Erika - NC leaf / Lyra / Shauna - 65K - 70K
Mallow - Selene / SS Ace / SS Leaf - 80K - 85K
Gardenia - SS Lyra / SS Erika / Dawn - 55K - 60K
Cilan - Adaman / LBlue / Mallow - 90K - 100K

350K+

@frank shore if you are going 250K ish I think you should be fine. The challenge for you will be move level for some of the key F2P pairs.

[shy flax]

Thanks for the help!

Ramos: I hadn’t intended to use two off type pairs, but I guess if NC Blue helps me get a higher score anyway than I’ll do it.

Gardenia: resetting for both sunny day and Grassy Terrain MPR at the start seems like a nightmare 🙃

Cilan: using Mallow there instead of against the physical based Mallow or Gardenia feels weird

[hardy fog]

You can check Jo's and Blaze's score in the pin if you want more ideas. The cilan, erika and Mallow score I'm certain because I did the same team.

They have some budget teams in there

[hollow prism]

If you’re not stacked out of your mind for the type using 2 offtypes is probably fine

Offtypes give you easier and more reliable 70-80k scores without having to use up more of your valuable on type pairs

[hardy fog]

I quite like Blaze's egg team tbh haha

[oak fulcrum]

NC Blue is also super nice to help out with gauges, I ended up putting mine on Ramos because none of my remaining grass types could help SC Rosa with enough gauge

[hollow prism]

I’m terrified to do Ramos because the gauge on my team looks like shit

[hardy fog]

Plus it's hard to find a tank with sp def for this HS lol

[hollow prism]

Literally only VMallow

Or HSyca

[oak fulcrum]

That too, NC Blue was my VMallow replacement and him with Lyra was just enough to outpace the damage from Ramos at 700str but I feel like I can go higher with better luck

[hollow prism]

Wait he can only do 700?

[oak fulcrum]

I feel like he can go higher, that’s just what I’ve cleared right now with what I have

He was definitely not the weak link in my comp at that strength
