I think I got like 60k or something

#

It was triple as well

#

pause

icy pendant
#

last ranked honestly sucked for Gordie, I just used Silver DPS

vernal condor
#

You should literally be getting x10 that

#

maybe not on the ranked since it was no status

icy pendant
#

last ranked had too many things going on with Gordie's teambuilding constraints

vernal condor
#

but on regular 3v3, gordie non ex should still get ~600k

azure vine
#

Sorry mb

#

It wasn’t 60k

vernal condor
#

quite literally how

icy pendant
#

well rosa, that's how

azure vine
#

I did what I always did

#

I got like 5 syncs in

#

I don’t suck at dc I swear

vernal condor
#

You do if you got 40k only with 5 syncs

icy pendant
#

it was no status, you don't put rosa on that team

azure vine
#

nah but you get it

icy pendant
#

tbf you aren't building into Gordie, Cakewalk is completely not tapped into

azure vine
#

hm

#

What are the teams

#

Recommendations

#

For gordie

glossy token
#

yeah gordie sucked bc no status on rock but

#

otherwise

#

hes the move

icy pendant
#

the team you used probably works a lot better unranked, but ranked params hard countered Gordie

#

combined with cakewalk being either slow or just less accessible to set up

azure vine
#

alright

#

Tomorrow I’ll try it then

#

Also quick side question

glossy token
#

true, plus speed from the stage iirc

#

so even slower

azure vine
#

Is this good enough for the current one with 1/5 geeta?

#

cs2 geeta

glossy token
#

define good enough

vernal condor
#

well non ex koga gets more

glossy token
#

thats a personal metric

azure vine
azure vine
vernal condor
#

No

azure vine
#

can u link

icy pendant
#

koga is unironically legit

glossy token
#

this is my run just now. doubled my prior score from last rerun and didnt get as many dodges as id like

azure vine
#

hah

#

I got more

vernal condor
#

no i can't link, it was random screenshots during the last 3 days PrycePain

azure vine
#

(jk)

glossy token
#

if i cared enough to rerun it w/ changing to either ex koga, ex elesa, or a diff third unit instead of elesa (picked her for leg up + breathtaking for sync accel & finishing koga's spatk from elio's +4) i could go way higher

#

but i have a very thin roster

#

and not many resources

#

and uh

azure vine
glossy token
#

also rolling for leg up 2 + t1 non hostile environment poison + mpr from koga + mpr on breathtaking is

#

Fucking Annoying

azure vine
#

I also am saving resources for the actual units

glossy token
#

so

#

i mean

#

the dc core is actual units

azure vine
#

But I did ex my bp barry

#

And morty (no other ghost options)

#

Just to get 1m in the ranked

glossy token
#

i dont think bianca is doing much of anything for you there beyond being an ex sync with supp

azure vine
#

Oh she lowers

glossy token
#

i dont know geetas kit super well but

azure vine
#

Def

glossy token
#

you would prob do much better with a different third unit

azure vine
#

Bianca has staggering, circle and def drop

icy pendant
#

she's a physical amplifier, circle multiplier, dodge hacker, and flincher

glossy token
#

well wait

#

are you

#

clicking her attack

azure vine
#

only 3 times

glossy token
#

ok

azure vine
#

And it’s pretty quick

#

so

glossy token
#

i was gonna say, once you're set up, you should not be clicking attack on anyone other than sing lmao

azure vine
#

sherlock

#

I’m kidding

glossy token
#

but at the end of the day, 1/5 exr geeta has basically no multipliers other than the 1.5 from poison zone

azure vine
#

I mean

#

You’re forgetting

#

Her tm

glossy token
#

ok

#

thats 1 use

#

no mpr at 1/5

#

not doing much for you

#

what i was trying to get to to maels point is

azure vine
#

dude it made my last b move do 150K

#

that’s like half

glossy token
#

again. ok. not saying it doesnt

azure vine
#

But yeah you’re right

glossy token
#

but koga could easily hit 400k if not more bc he has multipliers

azure vine
#

Mpr would do wonders

glossy token
#

mine cant, im not a good example in this case

#

but like

icy pendant
#

compared to 3/5 you lose 130% amplifiers and 50 sync bp

glossy token
#

tech ex for 1.5, blind spot, innate from poison

azure vine
#

Yeah no

#

I imagine he’s pretty good

#

but can’t be bothered like you said

icy pendant
#

only swap I could see would be bianca out for sc steven

glossy token
#

so if you want to go higher than your current score, you would need to invest in koga. your current score is fine, and if you dont want to spend the resources on him then yeah its good enough

#

if i didnt need the +spatk i would be using redlax for second supp ex sync and at least 3 seun syncs

#

even without max spatk that probably still breaks 400k tbh

#

but

#

point being

#

its ultimately more of a question of both your roster and your goals than it is any sort of objective metric

azure vine
#

I get it

azure vine
glossy token
#

and if it makes u feel better, these are my regular rock scores + my dc rock score. idr if i had no gordie for rock triple or if he was just at 1/5 (he is now, very newly, 2/5 lmao)

#

it was also before the good word of sync spam had reached me at least, i think it was a thing by then

#

bc ground single (which was after) has colress on the team so

stoic crest
#

What is the best option? I have stuff like red lax and champion blue. Please ping me

glossy token
#

or would you prefer to just work with what youve got

#

oh or candy

icy pendant
#

with no candies, only ex: koga
with any investment: geeta

stoic crest
#

I don't want to candy unless I have to

icy pendant
#

unfortunately you are missing at least two options that clear Geeta by a substantial margin in SS Roxie and Oleana, unsure what Klara has cooked but she might be over the 1m mark as well

azure vine
#

actually

icy pendant
#

if you want 1m, you straight up have nothing that can do it at the levels of investment you currently have: Koga needs EX and Geeta needs 3/5

azure vine
#

I might wanna candy my geeta

#

Is there a better unit to do that right now?

glossy token
#

i mean

#

in what sense

azure vine
#

How much can u get

#

In dc

glossy token
#

we dont know your roster

icy pendant
#

geeta clears 1m but it's hard

glossy token
#

and it depends if all you care about is dc

azure vine
icy pendant
#

yes

azure vine
#

Especially in br

glossy token
#

thats fair

icy pendant
#

I almost got it, but it needs better gear or better rolls

azure vine
#

So it’d make my life better

glossy token
#

like, im not gonna tell you not to

azure vine
#

I only candy mfs

glossy token
#

but field candies are def harder to come by so

azure vine
#

So it’s logical for me

glossy token
#

just encouraging you to think it through

azure vine
#

Yeah

azure vine
#

I have 4 of them so it’s fine

stoic crest
#

Tickets

glossy token
#

then i would ex koga ariel

#

heres a grid

#

who do you have who can raise spatk?

icy pendant
glossy token
#

with one tm mpr you can max his evasion and crit, but he has no +spatk so either you need elio + a source of +2 or someone who can +6

cloud timber
#

yeah you need about 31 seconds minimum to fit that in

glossy token
#

oh pairing with chase is interesting

#

then you dont need tm mpr

#

bc chase also gives group evasion right?

icy pendant
#

chase is quite literally koga's perfect teammate

glossy token
#

yeah goddamn

#

only downside is that you need the t1 poison

icy pendant
#

dc blue moment

glossy token
#

or a miss from play rough

#

or else you get para from chase

icy pendant
#

oh koga's innate is poison innit

glossy token
#

yeah

#

sadly

glossy token
#

ah only 1/5 chase?

#

hm

normal parcel
#

It was 0 RNG involved

glossy token
#

still probably the best option if hes also ex

stoic crest
#

He is

icy pendant
#

actually 1/5 is fine, 3/5 is where he gets good and mael's is only 2/5

glossy token
#

but no spatk mpr

#

so prob do koga chase elio?

#

ah

#

yeah i was thinking 2/5 for xspatk mpr

#

for +6

feral hamlet
glossy token
#

im locked in for blue as my electric unit but chase is also very much on my list of wants at this point. all the pikas man... except mc pika dfgkjfdhkj

stoic crest
cloud timber
#

melony can top off special attack too

normal parcel
glossy token
# stoic crest How many sp attack?

elio can give +4 if you do his tm with 3 bars of energy, but you want the +4 from chase so you get 2 +evasion and dont need to grid for koga's tm mpr THIS IS WRONG

#

wait no

icy pendant
glossy token
#

no

#

im wrong

#

ignore that

glossy token
cloud timber
#

grid all ramped up

icy pendant
#

mael's clear uses dc blue as the third

glossy token
#

ahh

feral hamlet
normal parcel
#

I used them

glossy token
#

amending what i said to be right: you do elio tm at 3 bars for +4, one xspatk, then one other tm gets you to +6 evasion

#

bc its any tm

icy pendant
#

speaking of 1m geeta, I just realized my b move didn't have seun on it, time to redo...

glossy token
#

so sync accel will count for it im 99% sure

stoic crest
#

Okay I'm confused

#

I'm working with 1 hand

#

Since I had surgery yesterday

normal parcel
stoic crest
#

Koga, elio, chase right? How many TM of each pair?

glossy token
#

yes

#

ariel give me one second

glossy token
#

idk why thats reply to me might have meant for stack

icy pendant
#

it's a bad reply dw about it

normal parcel
glossy token
#

all good, just confused me lol

feral hamlet
# normal parcel I used them

Then I don't know how you did it. Last sync comes out at 30-ish seconds which isn't enough time to set up another one and too much time for one attack, so the score is 730k

stoic crest
normal parcel
#

The trick is the inital rotation, I used tackle, leer, sing, sing, sing, sing, leer, leer, sync, mortal spin, then sing spam

#

You want to delay poison as mucg as you can

#

And grid for poisonous accelleration you will need that

#

Seun for last 2 syncs and for final b move

feral hamlet
#

Sing spam without status? I tried some of that for a bit but the outcome was always the same. Very unpredictable, but the same.

#

Not as much, but sure, let's see how that goes

normal parcel
icy pendant
#

you put the enemy to sleep under that rotation yeah

#

so the sleep is the status

normal parcel
#

Sing will cancel dazzling gleam so it evens up I guess

glossy token
#

ok @stoic crest heres your team. grids do not matter for sides beyond enough bulk to not faint, but you're going for evasion so should be fine. your move order is:
koga poison fang [reset if no badly poison]
elio sing
chase xspatk
[marnie]
koga tm
elio tm [needs 3 bars; if not enough energy, sing instead and wait til next turn]
chase tm
[marnie]
koga tm
elio sing [see above]
[marnie]
elio sync [at this point, koga should be +6spatk, +6evasion, and +3 crit, so fully set up]
chase tm
[marnie]
elio sing spam until sync cd
chase sync
elio sing spam until 1 to sync
chase kanto circle
koga sync
elio sing spam into koga sync w/ reup of kanto circle if needed should timer run out

#

kanto circle gives you +20% to sync bc 2 kanto units (koga and chase)

normal parcel
#

If you can save 3/4 poison ticks is definitely worth

glossy token
#

so very worth it

normal parcel
#

I guess the only RNG involved is that sleep should last 3 sings

glossy token
#

you can choose to tank with chase or koga depending. koga will be +6 evasion, chase will be +3, but koga is also frailer if he does get hit

normal parcel
#

I guess 2 sings are enough if you have Hs1 instead of adrenaline for melony, Steven wants hs1

glossy token
#

and for ls, if you have hs1/adrenaline or vigi on either of the sides alter the moves accordingly. what i sent is for vigi/irrelevant ls

feral hamlet
normal parcel
#

1st sleep should be your 3rd action

icy pendant
#

you can sleep earlier if you miss

normal parcel
#

Or 4th

#

No need to miss just use tackle and b leer, then another b leer and 4 sings

feral hamlet
#

I didn't have SEUP for the b move

icy pendant
#

got the 1m with second action sing miss because I'm attracted to missing on 60% accuracy

normal parcel
#

Alternatively you may try to cancel 1st play rough, sou it will be forced to use x defense 1st turn and I guess it will sit at full gauge for like 2 b leers

glossy token
#

unrelated to ariels... i did look at the sheet and

#

do i care enough to rerun with bp barry for another 100k

#

i dont think i do

#

i think the 100k comes from ex elesa actually

#

so

#

nvm

stoic crest
glossy token
#

you need poison for kogas innate

#

so you need to poison on the t1 poison fang from him

#

that was why i noted reset if no badly poison

#

bc thats the status you're spamming off of rather than para, and if he misses the poison proc you either land the sing or get para from chase getting hit

stoic crest
#

Ah so the sing still does nothing

glossy token
#

in any other type dc, yes you would want para from chase

#

but

#

were in poison

#

and poison basically every single unit innate is for poison status 😔

normal parcel
stoic crest
#

Gotcha thanks I'll give it a whirl

glossy token
#

o7 good luck, lmk how it turns out!

icy pendant
normal parcel
#

You want also to get +10 for b move

stoic crest
#

Not sure how well I'll do since I got one arm but I'm sure it will decent

glossy token
#

none of that should need to be super frame perfect for quadqueue

feral hamlet
icy pendant
#

it really isn't though?

normal parcel
glossy token
#

if you get the quadqueue from elio's sync into sing then cool but

#

should be fine either way

normal parcel
#

Her b move is slower than steven

#

And you want to queue both together

icy pendant
#

yeah the queueing concerns makes it justifiable to do that way, I had enough buffer at the end where it didn't matter that Geeta did everything

normal parcel
#

If you use Geeta tm opponent has a chance to queue a move inbeteeen

icy pendant
#

either way it sounds like I did it a bit wrong and it still didn't punish me

feral hamlet
#

I could try switching the order up so only SEUP is needed from Steven at the end

feral hamlet
#

So close. Ran out of gauge. But the setup was good

icy pendant
#

you gridded poisonous acceleration?

feral hamlet
#

Yes

icy pendant
#

oh, you just didn't get the b move off I see

feral hamlet
#

Yeah, just had to sit there the last 4 seconds

icy pendant
#

did you use one at some point?

glossy token
#

what are you using before that that costs gauge?

icy pendant
#

sing

feral hamlet
#

Sing lol

glossy token
#

yeah but

#

youre at 8

#

not 9

icy pendant
#

steven seup

glossy token
#

but does that cost gauge? it seems like that should give you plenty of time from queue sync -> steven seup -> bmove

icy pendant
#

no, you sync with empty gauge

glossy token
#

ah

icy pendant
#

the team runs out of gauge a little bit after geeta's third sync

feral hamlet
#

Doesn't help I'm missing these frame perfect turn denials early on, unless it actually doesn't matter

icy pendant
#

how much time was on the clock for you on geeta's 4th sync?

feral hamlet
#

Like 4 seconds?

icy pendant
#

yeah you need to find another second or so

feral hamlet
#

Just nailed the timing here. Something was different this time that made it work.

#

Maybe role EX and level 150 takes me to 1M, but I don't want to do that

stoic crest
#

Which is probably the best I'll get since I have one hand that's not my dominant hand....

delicate junco
#

Sooo i have a few DC dillemas

#

I have enough spirit and 5* ups to 6* someone

#

I can go for Koga and assume SC Hilda is enough for tomorrow

#

or 6* bea for High Score

glossy token
#

it beats my score so

glossy token
#

also yeah bleck i would not go for hilda

delicate junco
#

;c

glossy token
#

also by 68

#

what do you mean

loud cedar
#

is it nc silver gaming

glossy token
#

nc silver is strike/sprint

delicate junco
#

fixed

icy pendant
glossy token
#

ahh

#

ty adept for being smarter than i am

loud cedar
#

oh hmm i dont have his ex role yet

icy pendant
#

NC Silver gaming is absolutely viable

glossy token
#

hes viable

icy pendant
#

it’s him or an invested alt Selene

glossy token
#

but im guessing its going to be alt selene > nc silver bc of sand

#

and better multipliers

delicate junco
loud cedar
#

nc silver ss diantha+spammer?

delicate junco
#

so should i ignore poison and invest in a rock?

glossy token
#

well

#

what is your current poison score

icy pendant
#

you lack other rock options tbh

delicate junco
#

0

#

i havent done the poison yet because i only have a poison striker rn

glossy token
#

because my thinking is overall minimal investment with someone like koga will get you about the same kind of score as heavy investment

icy pendant
#

Hilda’s setup leaves a lot to be desired because of how much she wants and how slowly she does it herself

glossy token
#

non-ex

delicate junco
glossy token
# stoic crest About 400k

actually wait. this is way lower than it should be, because your koga should be doing 1.5x more per sync with being ex while mine isnt

delicate junco
#

poisons were notoriously scarce when i played

glossy token
#

adept can you help me troubleshoot that

#

i mean

#

bleck

icy pendant
# delicate junco

uninvested Koga can still hit 500k optimally, you probably lack his primary teammates right?

glossy token
#

i have literally 7 lmao

#

so i feel you

stoic crest
#

I got 140k per sync

#

But only got 2 in

delicate junco
stoic crest
#

And I can't hit button as fast

icy pendant
delicate junco
#

dont have him either

glossy token
#

you do have ex 5/5 plumeria who gets burst in, build up, inertia, and virulent toxin

icy pendant
#

yeah you just stick with Plumeria then and otherwise take the L on this one I think

glossy token
#

i dont know the math on if virulent toxin and timeloss to poison is worth it tho

delicate junco
#

doesnt matter its all i have

stoic crest
#

Oh you aren't asking me

glossy token
#

i think you just go inertia + build up/burst

stoic crest
#

My apologies

delicate junco
#

also for rock

glossy token
#

sorry lady ariel, i did reply to you i just

delicate junco
#

i do have a single strike candy

glossy token
#

was answering this first

delicate junco
#

if we really want to try classic blue or something

glossy token
#

classic blue will want his cake

icy pendant
#

one strike candy doesn’t do anything for you

glossy token
#

more than a candy

icy pendant
#

he also wants 3/5 for haymaker + soften up, so yeah

#

2/5 gives a single sync power tile and that’s about it

glossy token
#

yeah i think this is best plumeria grid

delicate junco
#

is it possible tat DC Nemona could help hilda

glossy token
#

no

#

hildas biggest weaknesses are two things

icy pendant
#

only with zone, not with buffing

glossy token
#

one, she was one of the first sc units which are in the same boat as seasonals in that they obsolete and never get revisited/buffed

stoic crest
#

Rock tomorrow wants NC silver right?

icy pendant
stoic crest
#

I'm guessing I'm set

icy pendant
#

yeah you’re in a good spot

stoic crest
#

I only got 1 million with silver at 3/5

#

I must have used bad pairs

icy pendant
#

I remember 2m was somewhat easy for me, but it’s a chance to revisit it and get that improvement

stoic crest
#

Since I had no paralysis or sing then

glossy token
#

two, she has mega tax on her sync, so her bp is way lower not to mention lack of innates. while she gets towering force by 3/5 as you have, she needs someone else to set it up bc you're not using diamond storm in dc unless its a final hit sort of thing

#

this grid gives you a single seun and 251 bp sync w double down 5 and towering force as mults

#

and there is no gridded mpr for either of her tms

#

so you need +2 atk from somewhere

#

anyway

#

back to lady ariel

#

adept, im not good at the damage calculator and im worse for calcing the entire fight

#

with 2 supp syncs (second of which [chase] has sprint exr) and ex koga, shouldnt that come out to 500k minimum?

#

that comp hitting only slightly more than my scuffed one did feels like ive missed something

icy pendant
#

oh I promise I’m worse at it when I’m chilling on the couch watching Thursday Night Football so going off of vibes only assuming Koga is set up properly and gear is swapped over then 500k seems like a reasonable benchmark

#

though on only one hand, I wouldn’t force anything too much

#

no amount of training tickets are worth physical discomfort imo

glossy token
#

it feels like it should be 1.5x my score (350ish) bc i have no ex koga and only one supp sync

#

thats true

#

mostly just wasnt sure how much was physical vs if i had missed smth in my planning

stoic crest
#

I probably need that sync but I can't move fast enough since I'm right handed and that arm can't move right now

glossy token
#

nw then, i just wanted to make sure i hadnt guided you poorly

#

bc if you Could get higher with a better plan, i would feel bad for being the reason why you didnt

stoic crest
#

I have like 20 seconds after second sync so I'm sure I could get a third with faster movement

glossy token
#

in that case, i hope your recovery is swift and uneventful <3 glad to help where i could!

stoic crest
#

Thank you I appreciate it

fluid anvil
#

SS Ingo is gonna boost SSRCs 3v3 ghost score a lot. He's got a bunch of stuff
-Will-o-wisp spam (can replace melony?)
-amazing TM for DC - Reduces the user’s sync move countdown by 2. Raises the Speed of all allied sync pairs by 4 stat ranks. Raises the evasiveness of all allied sync pairs by 2 stat ranks.
-Befuddle 2
-max move that drops defences -2
-AoE flinch on max move
-ShY 5
-ghost zone and extension at 10/5
etc. .. only lacks support EX
pair them up with either NC blue or S.Gardenia

glossy token
#

is willowisp 1 bar?

#

thought it was 2

#

still prob worth given the overall value

#

nc blue you run into overlap with speed; gardenia means no way to para for willowisp spamming

#

so maybe the move is either someone like chase to lean into evasion more?

thin wren
#

2

fluid anvil
#

he can burn himself for status. burn isnt ideal, but you can choose to burn only 1 side (like was done on Fire DCs) and also between ShY5 and evasion you probably dodge a bunch to save time
willowisp is 2 bar, but people have already used 2-bar Oleana spam and gauge was manageable.
there's a lot of options, I'm pretty sure a perfect team & run with him can score well above the current max.
Since you can get as many syncs as nc blue +Melony (if not even 1 extra .. and he is sprint too), but with more spdef debuffs (and no need to manually use zone)

#

and nc blue + melony already got 4.3M at only -2 spdef

cloud timber
#

oleana has a lot more to maintain gauge between mgb and its mpr and pep rally 2

#

if you can settle for like 4 syncs it could be enough but that's 4 syncs

fluid anvil
#

Oleana had only 353 speed back then, he has 465 at 10/5, base speed affects gauge a lot
and with TM refresh and/or nc blue you would be at +6 speed anyway
also if using S.gardenia - she has ghost acceleration 3

long silo
#

Oh AoE Rock next huh.

#

I went the DPS route last time HilbertHmm

cloud timber
#

oh yeah if you fit haunted accel 3 on it becomes way better

pastel bone
#

Anyone available

#

Trying to get 1M, so far got 5.9K

rain copper
#

Have you watched the documented clear

#

Oleana is the best option btw

rose basalt
#

how are u suppose to use oleanna for poison single

#

poison first or no

long silo
#

Max Move first turn to apply rebuff/poison, and setup power play

rose basalt
#

teammates?

cloud timber
#

looking like bianca rosa is best but i'm sure there's plenty of things that are also good

rose basalt
#

gonna try red and melony

sacred badger
#

oh my

#

rock multi soon

vagrant ivy
#

you’d want to run EX’d Barry and kukui if you don’t have gordie

#

just ignore sand blaster although it is on his grid

#

get berserker 2 and crit infliction 9 so he becomes self sustainable

cloud timber
#

they said in the message after it was before they knew about sync spam strats

vagrant ivy
#

oh makes sense now

rose basalt
#

roxie just refuses to crit now for 3 games in a row

#

how unlucky do ihave to be

#

this is with multiple syncs

cursive linden
#

Is this NC Silver's best team for dc?

rose basalt
#

finally

glad kraken

ooo nice score

Does olivia do better?

#

Anyone tried Alt. Elio + OG Elio?

cunning rock
#

USUM Elio's issue is that his B move takes waaaay too long

glad kraken
#

Yeah thats 20 seconds per use for 1 extra SMUN

#

Its not worth it over diantha

cursive linden

Requires:

  • NC Silver TM MPR proc once
  • Redlax TM MPR proc once
  • Redlax TM use every sync AND last b move

this wasn't supposed to be worse

no infliction freebie needed, sand gives time for gauge

#

i'll have to check how many crits i missed

calm horizon
# warped gulch

hello i must ask can elio be better here, yes he is slower than melony but if you get luckier with misses and can manage to get to last sync he boosts alola analysis the whole way

cloud timber
#

ok there

#

i thought it'd be really cool if you could get alt selene + double elio to work for maximum circle boosts

#

but people are saying it's way too slow

#

or were, before anyone had even tried

misty forge
#

Good enough first try

warped gulch
pallid girder
#

So did Uselena outdmg NC Silver's best score (3M) yet?

warped gulch
#

Enemy just very fast

#

And Elio just inconsistent enough

calm horizon
#

i've been trying it too lol to no avail

calm horizon
cloud timber

yeah lol

calm horizon
#

Are you assuming a traditional actually use moves clear or using poison to sing spam btw

warped gulch

Ngl k want to try this

cloud timber

poison to sing

warped gulch

But poison really suck

cloud timber

might want to sleep two at the start to inflict single poison

Really suck, i even drop 1 Acid and not even close

Either that or clear

So the pic above is not enough

calm horizon

i wasn't going to say it LOL

vernal condor
#

Bro has blindness

warped gulch
#

@calm horizon the thing you can try is debuff speed with Elio

#

Give him Mg2 too

#

He also can debuff SpDef too so less Acid

#

Debuff enemy from +2 -> 0 already a win

#

Give you more time later

long silo
#

I'm sorry I was confused so I need to ask lol

toxic sleet
#

cant get olivia to do 1m so ig I'll settle with this lol

fiery rose
#

I'm gonna be resorting to ss diantha lmao

#

Tried aeroblue, didn't work out

#

He got like 700k with elio/red

#

A fourth blue sync would've cleared 1m but that'd have needed a lot more sync accel or luck

true locust
#

Interesting if diantha was 10/5 wat score would be.

wow these are pretty low
I thought like 4M+ with Rock Selene hmm

Im not lv up selene for it

Anyone

nope

vapid kernel

i crossed it only with 3/5 exr paulo and colress

Wait, you can just use V Mallow @calm horizon

#

Instead of Elio

calm horizon
#

how do you even think of this stuff LMAO

cloud timber
#

without paulo you pass up role compressing maxing inertia and sand blaster and attack

warped gulch
#

But she should be better bc no passive

cloud timber
#

and providing gauge for spam w/o infliction freebie

warped gulch
#

And gauge shouldn’t be a problem too

I do have her so I'll give her a shot

Enemy just too fast in general

vernal condor

No MGA, only circle MG2 from Selene

Ah

vernal condor

The same way I used DC Blue with Chase

Except Mallow is a support so it's even better

So close hm

vernal condor

Replace Rosa with Melony I beg you

#

Stop using Rosa

#

She's not good

old valve

Not sure how I want to approach this

I see a lot of people using SS Diantha but mine is 1/5 so that probably won't work out...

Gordie gaming

And I doubt my 2/5 EX Emmet is going to do me many favours either so

vapid kernel
vernal condor
vapid kernel

Plus with Melony i need to sacrifice Trip Up 1 for Lithic Acceleration

vernal condor

No??? You really shouldn't need that

Shes so fking slow tho

#

Well leme try ok

old valve
#

Maybe I should just get Olivia EX

vernal condor

No

Olivia isnt good for this

There's a reason you havent seen her lmao

vernal condor

That uses Paulo

#

If you have Paulo then sure

old valve
#

I have paulo

vernal condor
#

Mind you, that's a 3 EX R paulo

old valve
#

He's 1/5 EXR atm but like

#

What else am I going to do with sprint candy PrycePain

vernal condor
#

Idk if the grid gives anything important

old valve
#

I'll check

vernal condor
#

@cloud timber any insight on if 3/5 Paulo is necessary with olivia

cloud timber
#

losing pep rally is bad so you'll have to fill in the missing speed buffs another way

old valve
#

Sand Blaster 9, Brawn Sync 5, and it caps his offenses solo

cloud timber
#

i use sharp entry and the max rockfall tile as well

old valve
#

Oh no

#

I only have 1 sprint candy

#

DC ain't worth using an omni candy on lol

cloud timber
#

yeah don't

#

i reached 5 total syncs with sand up for all of olivia's 4

#

you'll be settling for something less than that without 3/5 paulo

old valve
cloud timber
#

inertia and twave spam

old valve
#

Oh right inertia

cloud timber
#

you can afford to avoid infliction freebie and save time

which compensates for sand being slow

2 bar is not great

I assume very late right ?

yeah

warped gulch

Bc that the only time enemy slow down

cloud timber

+6 speed and mga were both pretty essential to maintaining gauge even with fast enemy under sand for my run

I like how Quaggles is only here cus its Selene and Elio time

old valve
#

I'll seeeee what I can do with 1/5 paulo then

#

Here's hoping it works out to something good lol

warped gulch
#

I can give it a try, i have speed gear so i can do it

I only gain interest in DC when I feel like I could compete with a top score with my favs

yeah I have 100 spa but no speed on my gear lol

This damage challenge shit kinda crazy

Ya well Rock sucks

And shes still due for a grid expansion

old valve

Especially mine

#

...actually wait hold on

fluid anvil

I didnt realize Rock is so ass STILL
they got Diantha SA, NC silver this year and Elio+Selene like 2-3 months ago
Selene is supposed to be a big AoE sync nuker

If I 3/5'd my (non EXR'd) Emmet would he outdamage Olivia

vapid kernel
#

Oh idk

#

What myltipliers

old valve
#

Sand Blaster 5 with Soften Up 1 and Head Start 1 on the side it looks like

vapid kernel
#

He has no multipliers except Sand Blaster 5

#

Hes worse

old valve
#

Dang

#

Truly the embodiment of EmmetDown

#

Maybe he'd deal some amount more if I EXR'd him too but like. That ain't worth it

warped gulch
#

Ok i can maintain gauge until the end

cloud timber
#

can still try rock slide spam under sand

warped gulch
#

Just dodge like 0 atk

calm horizon
#

whatever clear I could muster up probably will never be better than yours cause I only have a 2/5 chase so no circle extension

#

it'll just wear off by the end

vernal condor
#

Ikr that sucks

#

I'm 3/5 my Chase asap lmao

calm horizon
#

he's coming up with all the ideas so realistically he's the one that deserves the score lol

i have no complaints!

warped gulch

I can reach final Sync easily , but double circle eat too much time

@calm horizon

My support candy comes soon

So you do double circle?

Ofc

I just so lucky with ton of para lol

crude sandal

I swear, if we get rock 3v3 with physical damage hampered, I'm rioting

warped gulch

Mallow problem is you need to use Chase Tm

Which eat too much Circle time

sheeesh he's insane

I did this last time, but i genuinely don't remember what I did. Someone help me out? SophoKEK

I'd guess you use Red's TM on Silver's B-Move

Did I just spam Stone Edge MalvaReckless

proud minnow

but it's very dependant on move order

rapid sparrow

But what did I do in between

proud minnow

not sure how I should explain that

but I know it's a damage rush clear

rapid sparrow

Do you have that recorded?

I genuinely remember nothing

warped gulch

I guess 10/5 Diantha and 5/5 Red are very helpful.(not me)

she looked promsing but nc silver still has stuff that i don't really get

no animation skipping is all we can really tell

vapid kernel

Whats a FORBIDDEN team

pallid girder

I mean its prob the same team, and just without the 10/5 part (but still 5/5)

cloud timber
#

dunno why it wouldn't be the same team yeah

#

though pykuo did reach 3m with u selene and chase and something maybe elio

vernal condor
#

Without 10/5, Diantha loses zone on entry and PMUN stacks

cloud timber
#

with heavy rng

vernal condor
#

I think the team works without 10/5 diantha but isn't quite as effective

pallid girder
#

The same guy reached 3.5M last time. Although he didnt show the team last time, we didnt have Uselene last time too.

vernal condor
#

I think he probably has great gears too

#

while pykuo not really, with selene

true locust
#

He have 40%

prisma quail
#

I love actually playing the game, and not status/sync spam

vernal condor

lol 40% damage increase means without it they only get 2.8m

So selene is better

true locust

I did 2,3m no gear boost🤣

loud cedar

i should just use ss diantha why did i use rose

Selene is better off course but need alot rng

Can hot to the touch proc please

Gordie Melony Steven has a shot at 1.5m but the run sucks a lot so I'm not doing that

I got 1.3m, that's good enough

wanted some data for him vs 3v3

honestly dc nemona is better on her own

vernal condor
#

Gladion never is good

vagrant ivy
#

not by much, mind you

vagrant ivy

so they would in theory require less investment for new players

than EX(R)ing a specific tech or striker

tl;dr: he is supposed to be bad

as with ST, a clear difference is observed

vapid kernel

I feel like they shud nullify poison sandstorm damage cus it feels stupid lmao but only if they also nullify time wasted for their animation

tbh they have mitig 9 for poison damage field and trap I think

Doesnt matter

vagrant ivy

well what modern battle worth its money doesn’t have mitigation 9 for everything

if they had no mitigation poison stall Strats would be in the mid 200k probably

So paralysis spamming(bp barry) brings in 2 syncs lower than the fastest singing spammer melony Lapras?

cloud timber

1-2

fluid wave

I had a test run with melony and Calem w Olivia and it managed to bring in six syncs total and I was like 😭

So this is what it feels like to sing spam

Feels so good

cloud timber
#

bp barry/colress reach a maximum of 6 and melony reaches a maximum of 8

fluid wave
#

Too bad can't ever use melony

fluid wave
#

4 for Olivia this time w barry(ofc she takes hella long time buffing herself to max)

cloud timber
#

nah i remember hitting it a bunch of times pre-melony, you get a bit more setup time than that

#

but very typically you're settling for at least one less sync

fluid wave
#

Still, feels amazing.

#

Feels bad not having NC blue

cloud timber
#

might require single target no speed buff to not rely on para proc rng

fluid wave
#

To ever use melony

cloud timber
#

sonia still helps a lot

fluid wave
#

....

cloud timber
#

worst case you can run bp barry/colress on top of melony

fluid wave
#

I think this game loves to piss me off literally by not giving me all DC useful units. Sonia still hasn't come home

cloud timber
#

or some other para option that helps with setup with elio if you have him

fluid wave
#

Colress also

#

I just pulled a 5 star ticket today though

#

Nate

#

Bwehh

cloud timber
#

it's not worth worrying about or trying to rush, just complete your daily stuff and work with what you currently have

#

being unable to control your worrying is exactly how gacha games hook you into spending

fluid wave
#

Yeah for now I can only rely on bp barry. He brings in the best result

cloud timber
#

spending is fine if you have a set amount of disposable income but a lot of people won't

fluid wave
#

Nah I don't think I will spend money to get ANY unlimited gen pools

#

There is one for colress going on now though

#

I don't have THAT much urge yet

#

But I might like some ppl who've said after 2 years just not coming home they just resorted to paid selects

#

Cause that's a long time

#

Usually 2 years you should have at least 1 of all

cloud timber
#

yeah even if you go that route it's still never worth paying for anything already available in ticket pools

#

already can be easy to get 5/5 on nearly everything in ticket pools as f2p

#

should you be completing everything over a long period of time

A WTZ unit being used is extremely surprising

Prolly because Silver has guaranteed flinch on his B Move

And Alt. Selene not scoring higher than Silver is the biggest surprise for me

jeez this took all day

#

blue sync, elio sync, then 4 selene sync

#

needs good impatient procs on elio and good non-propelling move procs lol

brazen escarp
#

Can elio colress and a physical attacker 1/5 be good enough for damage Challenge

cloud timber
#

the only proper judge of "good enough" is you and that can mean very many different things

#

so yes

#

it can be

pallid girder
#

Btw I found that if you're using Elio, always pick speed debuff and try debuff speed for 2 turns.
As long as you can nulify the opponents speed buff it's actually easier to get in 6 syncs even tho you waste 2 turns on Sparkling Aria.

cloud timber
#

ye looking to debuff to +0 speed seems to be the right call in general if you can get that done in two turns

#

don't know if anyone's tested exactly at what point it wouldn't be worth it

#

but given 2 icy winds helping on ice triple and that having a longer anim than sparkling aria that range is safe

cloud timber
#

if they're at +2 and you put them at 0 it saves time overall

brazen escarp
#

Do I need to use colress with elio?

cloud timber
#

happens to have worked in the past

brazen escarp
#

Or is just elio fine?

cloud timber
#

you can use any paralyzer in the game with elio

brazen escarp
#

Ok

#

I should only be syncing right

cloud timber
#

yeah

brazen escarp
#

When I'm trying to do Dmg challenge

#

Ok

cloud timber
#

there's exceptions out there but they're rare and you might not see them at all

brazen escarp
#

Now the problem is that for rock none of the units I have can raise their own crit

#

And the other two slots are taken by elio and colress

cloud timber
#

again you don't have to stick to colress, if there's any para user that can raise crit you can fit that in fine

brazen escarp
#

That's the thing I have none

#

And my colress is only 1/5 so I can't spam para

#

So would it be better to replace elio with crit buffer or have no crits?

cloud timber
#

he's not very important below 3/5

brazen escarp
#

Who ?

#

Colress?

cloud timber
#

colress

#

defense debuffs matter less than you may expect

brazen escarp
#

Well here im using for para and debuff defense

cloud timber
#

especially when it's coming at the cost of not having crit rate

brazen escarp
#

But the other para don't have crit buff

cloud timber
#

don't need to worry about using elio either, just use bp barry and another support

brazen escarp
#

But I don't have bp Barry, although I have a ticket

#

But I don't think he would be much better at 1/5 either

cloud timber
#

you won't be getting much out of damage challenge at all by this point

brazen escarp
#

Wait what if I just replace colress with Barry and keep elio

#

I just checked Barry he can buff crit

cloud timber
#

bp barry might be the worst way to buff crit out there lol

#

has to go through absorb and deal with attack trap 4

brazen escarp
brazen escarp
cloud timber
#

burn and poison are options

they're far slower though

brazen escarp
#

Ok

#

Alr

#

Lemme just try without crit ig

cloud timber
#

which rock damage dealer are you using though

brazen escarp
brazen escarp
#

And rampardos

cloud timber
#

roark can grid sharp entry 1 so you only need to buff +2 crit

brazen escarp
#

Hmm

#

Even then how do I get that +2 crit

#

What is chance of crit with +0?

cloud timber
#

6.25%, 1/16

#

it'll make bp barry crit buffing way less worse if you still end up resorting to that

brazen escarp
#

Might be my only option

#

Cuz I don't have any other way to para and crit buff

#

And without sing spam my Dmg with probably be much lower anywyas

brazen escarp
cloud timber
#

oh i missed that roark gets double down so you can't fit in his sync multipliers and sharp entry on the same grid

#

you have main character and torchic right

pallid girder
#

Cannot exchange even 1 BP Surge right now?

with elio yeah

pallid girder
#

He has team crit.

brazen escarp
cloud timber
#

dunno

brazen escarp
#

Ok

#

Lemme check

#

Probably the best grid for roark in DC right?

cloud timber
#

yeah

#

you accidentally clicked a tile in the top right

brazen escarp
#

I was using the one in the sync grid list as a base and i forgot to unselect that

brazen escarp

cloud timber
#

you want whatever you can reach

#

you're so low on resources that idk if you can even afford to max out grid lol

#

but if you can then you grab whatever attack is there

brazen escarp
#

I have around 200k sync orbs so I think I don't have to worry about grids for a while

#

I just checked it seems that -6 def seems to double the Dmg while crit only does 1.5x

#

With critical strike two 1.7x

cloud timber
#

don't think you accounted for trained body 5

brazen escarp
#

Oh

cloud timber
#

everything has 50% mitigation to all stat debuffs

brazen escarp
#

I didn't know what that did

cloud timber
#

in damage challenge

vagrant ivy
#

funnily enough Roark would do 1m if he got an EX

brazen escarp
#

That'd be nice

#

But from what the Dmg numbers are saying it seems he would only do 35k on his 4th sync

vagrant ivy
#

but it’d be very close

brazen escarp
#

(the 5th sync overall)
