My most wanted treasures are Novel and Pepper

Challenger 5 defenses any help would be nice
T1: Skip
T2: Noise Noah VestiTU HelmT Centi
T3: Scar Trina Rumani SWHA Jackal
Assuming he has noise and noah that should work yeah 
oh there will be Cp deficit too. Rip
Just look at the units that shoot on the blue line, you need those to go faster. So Biscuit and Rumani
Won R2 and R3
Nice 
Challenger 3 defenses
This is only assuming your Label is still in top 2 highest atk when she loses her shield.. in my case Rosanna dispelled a different unit 
T1: Scar Trina Centi SWHA Rumani
T2: Skip
T3: Jackal VestiTU HelmT Blanc Noah
Can try this
You have Centi twice in there twice
Lol
edited haha
Rip yeahh
What’s the new teams?
^
Better to ask rail, or blood 
Ok
Bay: 2rl Noah Libby. 3-4RL Nayuta+Cindy.
SW: 2rl Indom Vesti/Sw
Gonna have to give me full teams chief I build terrible teams on my own 
What’s a good counter to this?
Hello
Snake likes you btw
No cap
I have proof
Temp or Vigor Cube for Label?
Tempering
yay, i like prydwen team too 
Gay because we all are boys
You can have Snake

Have a private lovey dovey up to you

Gay
Might or might not be true but about 50% chance if they don't delay the schedule anymore
Treasure sale on Gold ticket for characters that have treasure ady expired but no news yet for new treasure sadge
new treasures are a myth

Helmless?
Or Drakelese
So they won't be dispelled by Rosa. Or steal link from Noise. 
Well, just don't put Label to get hit. Problem solved.

Isn't D anti stun?
Only when there is stage target
It would be funny if Shift up makes a Nikke that instantly burst but in PVP like Elegg does on PVE 1 Time
no pls
Tho it's pretty much mechanic breaking, interesting teams would pop up LOL
Yea I agree also XD
That's tier EX Elegg treasure.

dude don't give them Ideas XD
SHE would be like SSSS is pvp by that time if it happens
They should know about this instant burst joke. It's not new.
XD in PVE yea but game breaking in PVP
1RL scarlet wipe
My bad I mean No RL scarlet wipe
I think they will make skill damage down
Yeah, we actually need more dmg down or DR units...
Noah Rebuild will save PvP, trust
Scarlet Rebuild will be even stronger but not electric


I mean they know and they won't.
If she died, the whole team revived once per duel. 
Why not 
new pb
you know what would be scary? rapunzel stun without needing to be low health
I don’t have Absolute for this comp…..
Nikke Champion Arena Season 21 - 17 January 2026
Team 1, Scarlet team removed Snow White: Heavy Arms and added Anis (Welcome back Anis ♥)
Team 3, TVesti team removed Anis and added Snow White: Heavy Arms
P.S. Learning my mistake from previous CA, after adjustment I felt confident going into this CA. SW: HA has proven to be a meta in PvP for ...
If you have a strong Rosanna, would you not be able to dispel Jackal link and just wipe SWHA and Helm?
Once upon a time there was a unit with 5 sec stun to all enemies at last bullet.. until SU made, oops, its actually taunt, not stun 
unironically, SAnis indom
I've been testing it into vesti and snow indom and won all fights
SAnis just kills them when their indom runs out and they're stuck either reloading or charging
this fight was at a 20% cp, 55 synchro deficit and its won easily every time
This is the only snow indom in my bracket and I win easily, the team is a little meme tier though...
Looks like just a slower indom 
they're both 2rl so should be the same indom timing, unless I'm misunderstanding something
SAnis feeds opponent Vesti team to be slightly faster. So its like 1.9RL vs 2RL in practice
I see
I was assuming sanis was winning by just shooting them during their charging time after both indoms run out lol
Pic 1 is without jackal link, pic 2 is with jackal link. With SAnis feed, we enter FB on Vesti's 3rd shot, instead of 4th shot
Hi all, may I have some recommendations on what teams should I use for PvP special arena? And who to equip quantum cube on?
Rheax so smart 
I've been looking for an indom replacement for CA because my snow indom team lost 3 mirror fights, its too rng
From my experience, Indom SW loses to alot of biscuit teams. U only get 2 charged full shots during indom period, which kinda sucks
yea she seems like a bad indom candidate sadly. But specifically my losses were to vesti indom mirrors, I'm guessing now its most likely my indom being faster
Honestly, idk how to cook CA nowadays. How do u even counter a Noah SWHA team, excluding Noah, biscuit and Rosanna
Maybe 
I gambled on an unbuilt absolute comp and got slapped for it lmao. Hopefully I can actually build mast before next ca
If its unbeatable without its counters, is what it is
Just need the other teams to win
T1: Noise Noah Helm Lib RH
T2: Jackal Rumani VestiTU Blanc LapT
T3: Scar Trina Siren Emilia Centi
ya, I ran a half-invested absolute team and got destroyed too 
So SAnis indom won’t work against SWHA / Blanc / Centi / HelmT / Jackal. It’s actually my defense in the first place but this guy managed to beat me and he set up the same defense and I haven’t figured how to counter my own defense.
ah you have one of those too, huh
Need slightly slower indom for a reliable answer, or to just soda stun for rng win with scarlet
copies your defense 
5x electric unit, or 5x fire unit. Kill SWHA or Blanc early
P1 water unit is very dangerous. Assuming u have like high ele units
did you try it and lose? I'm curious how the fight went because I'm seriously considering running SAnis indom as a team
Thanks for the recommendation 
However, my Rumani is completely unbuilt. What level of investment should I aim for her?
Haven’t tried yet and kinda hoping someone had an answer to counter it
just basic 4OL, skill level 4/4/4, SR0 or SR5 works
ah. Hopefully you get one
Hmm, counter to indom SHWA or indom Vesti might just be speeding opponent up
I stopped making good defense teams because people just keep copying it and they're all higher synch than me, its infuriating. Just throwing my own team at me with bigger numbers
Happens 
In spa or rookie?
Wouldn’t SWHA / Blanc / Centi / Siren / Jackal? Stun P1 (SWHA)
both but idc about rookie lol
Could work yeah. Imo easier to run a 2RL Indom Vesti that has 1-2 SG in it
Cuz ya in rookie, best to not use spa teams, just something very durable
my rookie and sp brackets are the same people so they jsut do the same things 
my rookie defense is some meme team. I got blue units on it
I still have no idea if i should be concerned or not in spa
VestiTU is evading me so I don’t have her
@tropic summit hes been randomizing his team all over,help pls
Could do Indom SBS as well
looks peaceful
SBS / Blanc / Centi / HelmT / Jackal?
Pretty sure im most invested among this current group by a bit, had more difficult rivals last grouping so i invested a lot more
my entire bracket is at least 40 levels higher but have lower invest so its kinda balanced ig?
Can replace Centi with like a ClipSG, like Noir or BSoda
I just wish they would attack each other and not me
Well i dont even level gap these guys, just have invest gap
My top few peeps also wipeout, buy cd occasionally 

Got to defending a decent invest dolphin/whale(?) who had 20 lvls on me last grouping
Same.
Tbh the big whale in my sp group basically stopped bothering in spa, hes been in rank 6 a while
Wipe your card to get 100 levels and you are free

Hopefully you don't get the ones that quit, but come back that have an ego lol
dam not even my blanc can win
Thats the other one who just holds rank 3 permanently lol
Got one in my bracket, literally swiped for about 120 levels, literally is higher than the OG whale and a different whale who also decided to swipe because he didn't know how to build arena teams
SWHA vs Noah + Biscuit opponent tends to lose often
...And he's stuck in 4th
But i think he just wants to guarantee ca and/or top 3
One of my whales gave up whaling. Just settled for lower rank 
I was coping to get indom but oops
I need a group of these. Harmless whales
Gentle giants, even
They're harmless until their ego gets to them 
Then it's a bad, bad time...
But whenever you have them around though, it is nice is if they're behind you. Act as a bit of a buffer zone from potentially more eager opponents
Just gotta hope you get the good ones
Ok. I will try that
Any thoughts? SBS / Blanc / BSoda / HelmT / Jackal can counter this? @tropic summit
Help with Special arena atk and def (i ss the ones i don't have so it's faster)
You can rrh blanc indom it
or if you have a built rosanna can run that
Or out stall it with moran helm healing
And 32 again (too)
Moran M.anchor helmT SWHA trina can out stall that
1440p
see if I get that far anyway not sure with my current teams lol
can noise replace moran in swha teams or is she necessary?
Its a weaker team because noise is easier to kill in p1 but you can run it
Just fingers crossed they dont kill her in time
would moran need ol or can I just slap gear and 4/4/4?
decent alternative 
Overloading would help yes, Depends on your bracket though, if you're in a new SP arena thats pretty low then you can probably get away with it
If you are in a decently along SP arena with everybody having overloaded units then I would overload her
it's like 450+ so it's not new unfortunately haha
yeah I need to save them for vesti when I get more golds
no goooolddsdssdss 😭
You could also just run noise on that team until you start losing
Either way though moran is worth building for pvp
I used to stay at 2-3 then dropped to 4-5 because no vesti and now I'm getting shoved to 7 so have to actually update my pvp teams lol
oh yeah no moran or vesti on teams makes it easier to break the defense
Jackal Rumani VestiTU Blanc ClipRL (2RL)
can I run liberalio instead of cliprl here?
You could yeah, if your vesti has 8% cs you are still 2RL
uh ohhh
If not its 2.5 and depending on what they throw at you it could be 2RL
she has 5%
Its a little less burstgen but again, depends what they throw at you with jackal there
👍
Actually it puts you at 3RL and you are gambeling on it to be 2.5
while lib is a true 2.5
If you ever want to check out your burstgen on teams you can use this https://nikke-deck.web.app
Create and share a GODDESS OF VICTORY: NIKKE deck
thankjuuu
does team 1 hit 2rl?
This one is more experimental
It can yeah
Not too hard for it to hit it if they dont use only RL units
even then 2.5 can be fine
2.1-2.3rl is fine too
2.1-2.3 doesn't die to burst with noah/blanc or?
blanc will go off in time unless they are out speeding you with frame data
Still B2 before nuke
okay huuuge
okay that is very useful to know ty
i.e. we still B2 Noah/Blanc in time generally
If its 3RL with cs% promoted to 2.5RL, generally still too slow and opponent Blanc/Noah will proc first
This is what I'm currently running
But I wouldn't really bother with the anchor one unless everything there is super invested, can just use noah instead
I see, you give up team 1 tho? to make team 2-3 better or?
Team 1 is an actual team
does it ever burst?
yeah if it doesn't get one shot by lib or a strong enough scarlet that doesn';t proc the biscuit invul
You basically have to one shot it with enough damage
So it forces resources against it that can be used against other teams
Yeah if I were playing against you I'd be tempted to blow up both team 1 and team 3 with lib but I only have 1 of her
And that team 3 is so fukcing obnoxious to play against
smart, I should do that as well
but what does lib do? is she like a new carry nuker or smth?
She just nukes really hard thats all she is there for
Unbuffed her nuke does like 2.5x damage scarlet does or something crazy like that
oh damn, so scarlet is kinda in the dust now?
You can nuke my slow cindy team with lib and blanc
for defense at least because label exists
I still haven't read her kit, what does she counter exactly?
label will block scarlet or cindy 2RL teams
reduces electric damage for the first 5seconds
Label reduces elec dmg by 70% for the whole team in the first 5 seconds
2.5RL scar or cindy can kill her because thats after 5 seconds
loool
Tbh I think most ppl won't invest her though, more of a CA unit
And scarlet is easy enough to counter without label anyways
I mean it's a free atk unit tho no?
Shes really good for attacking because of how broken she is against a 2RL scar or cindy team
yeah attack unit more than anything
yep
Very useful if opponents still run those on defense
okay that's good to know, sad to see my baby go tho 😔
At least she's still pretty good in CA
yeah scar will still be used in it
until we discover better teams with label and stuff
Well you'll be retaking first place with some team updates of course
maybe I can take 4th place, because I have mega whales 1-3
but 4th place def possible
ngl I copied your teams and now I pray
quantum is the burst gen cube iirc right?
yes
I think it was 6
tempering?
also 6 iirc
I need to check something
kk
I didn't copy the teams 1:1 tho haha, I replaced anchor with noah as you suggested and used centi/lib in vesti team instead of lapt/ada
how much cs does your helm have
Ok throw both quantums on swha and trina and then the other 3 get tempering
are we trying to make it 1.5rl or smth?
does that accomplish smth?
helps you not get one shot from rosanna
I don't even know moran's kit haha I just saw her regen 50% health when she got low
oouuuu
Moran burst is tempering cube on crack
okay makes sense, I don't think anyone runs rosanna in my bracket but they could be hiding her in atk teams
Either way bursting quicker will also hopefully have noah not die to vestiTU
okeh that's taken care of
should I just sr15 vesti doll while I'm at it?
I feel like that's inevitable
I've been going hard into sr/ur for like the entire time, mainly because I was happy staying <=4 with minimal investment, but now I feel like I can't just put it aside anymore
Thankfully SU decided to release top tier PvE pilgrims that are also amazing for PvP
I've seen a lot of PvE mains shoot to the top of their rookie/sp brackets because of snow white
yea, + vesti is best campaign unit so I don't mind it AS much as smth like rosanna or bay, etc
yea I was moreso throwing whatever came to my mind haha
like the helm stall comp that needed a lot of invest
think it was moran nero helm rapunzel blah blah
I will say Rosanna is nice for breaking jackal link & like 99% of players don't even know it, but no one invests her besides pvp guys
yeah
But yea I'm the same way PvE focused but PvP is fun and gives you lots of gems
Nero moran helm rapu lapT/mana
If you were super into that team you would build quiry
Same it'd feel so painful to brick my account like that
okayy sr15 doll on vesti, the team is a bit low cp but it's vesti so she should win methinks
if you don't have rosanna and vestiTU, try a mirror indom ein or scarlet, having higher fire rate it's likely you'll win the duel (ein drones also shoot slightly after full burst ends)
I have Rosanna
noah biscuit helmt ros jackal, should be lethal on both swha and helmt
assuming ros is 7/10/10 20-40% atk, 20-40% ele atk
alternatively you can force misindom
noah biscuit helmt siren laplaceT
box: #pvp-arena message
T3 check link, need vestiTU and helmT linked, if siren is linked gonna need to take the biscuit route
check CP on your own
record T1 as i want to see HP on moran after nuke
any good cooks? need defense teams: #pvp-arena message
SP arena
- nayuta trina helmt rh emi
- jackal vestiTU drakeT blanc centi
- rapunzel swha noir siren noah
Notes
- build noise, rumani and improve other utilities (trina, centi, biscuit, noah etc)
- consider getting laplace treasured
- build rosanna on short term
- build moran on medium term
once the above are done, can improve T3
Nothing beat CP pad and level gap. 
they can't CP pad or level gap you if you uninstall the game 
be one step ahead of the opponent 
how would i beat this pvp team?
But I'm the CP pad and level gap guy. 
Guess might have to get to 541 and clear snake soon. 
Depend on how next reshuffle looks like
2RL indom
- jackal indom flex blanc centi (indom any B3 DPS, SWHA/vestiTU prefer)
**2RL nuker **with siren if enemy noah is siren weak (he's not running 11%CS team wide)
- jackal scarlet trina siren swha/helmT, scarlet assumed linked
2RL rosanna to kill helmt and swha
- nayuta ros jackal swha helmt (rosanna assumed linked, 7/10/10, 20-40atk% and ele)
rh buffed indom swha with helm at p1
ty, t1 works and did try t2 before but didnt work
oke then you already found out he's 11%CS team wide, keep it in mind for the future if he runs that again and/or in SP arena 
@tropic summit i got a different situation. do you have some time?
Prayge 🙏

I should win team 3 and 4
Team 1 is on luck
Team 5 not too sure, both are similar, but I hope to believe in Mihara BC ticking on opponent's life
Nikke Champion Arena Season 21 - 17 January 2026
Team 1, Scarlet team removed Snow White: Heavy Arms and added Anis (Welcome back Anis ♥)
Team 3, TVesti team removed Anis and added Snow White: Heavy Arms
P.S. Learning my mistake from previous CA, after adjustment I felt confident going into this CA. SW: HA has proven to be a meta in PvP for ...
What teams can I use for SP?
Sorry to ask, what's a crate
battle date/core dust
boxes, crates 
p5 mihara failed me
@oak hatch i dont envy your bracket, but rooting for you on the next match 
Insane comp
the strongest shield 
@tropic summit @tulip quest salad clap again
yikes my noah lived a core 4 vesti
Note: I don't have special items in my roster aside from Helm
Not as much as you for sure. 
kek
Can someone help?
the issue here is , we can do something about it, but ur unlikely to rise by too much
Not looking good for this group but maybe I can at least win next match 
right u dont have lapT
yea
1+2 should be easy W, 4th you won similar today, but his noah prob beefier
and 5th is kinda rng
3rd prob L
Investment Check Battle It came down to Moran vs Moran XD that 1 damage per tick so painful to watch
My soda prob dead preburst against scar
with swha help, maybe 
Idek what the opponent 4th team is, last ca someone won with it but soda does nothing there 
dunno, moral support
someone has to clean after fight

Besto shieldo indeed
People still do not trust besto shieldo
@gaunt pulsar does round 3 actually look that bad? We talked about this kind of matchup before when cindoro had it and sg team won
same dude that was bursting with centi, sooo i guess it's his thing
Well he copied it from doro the winner last ca and it worked there, team just doesn’t make much sense
yeah, found recording, sg lost there 🫡 they wiped the floor but still couldn't live long enough because rumani got indomed
Hmm maybe we talking about different matches but I’ve seen sg win it quite often, this is the same matchup here as the one in round 3
ah, didn't had that one
a little random still, but hoping and praying it will work out there too
Honestly don’t feel good about it since my sgs are still low investment but maybe and also my cindy is also against his sg so there’s that 
my matches https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPU9zltKDfE

it more about rng than invest really, played out really well in that one
cindoro vs doro last CA he lost similar one, but his sg team was really experimental so could be due to that
@umbral belfry how did you matches go?
I might as well lose this match tho since next one since I’m against cindoro 
cindoro is in here right?
Yeah he’s baron


yeah that one is prob
havent looked into it much but doesn't look pretty
Nikke Champion Arena Season 21 - 18 January 2026
F


hime op
All according to keikaku 
i lost
even though my team is perfect counter to fahren
Lol all of my teams lost except my weird Noah team
back to the dungeon 
I'm just happy that I got through advance stage even once. Have gotten to CA every single season since it started but never made Top 64 until now 
w improvement
no dungeon this time
Probably wouldn't have even made it this far if I hadn't joined the discussions here and started looking even a little more at some comps, other than the messy stuff I was trying to make on my own 
nice
how you losing if its perfect counter 
somethings wrong
Not only that, but seems like there is still hope for my SP arena and getting top 3. C3 and C2 are now held by the same guys as previous seasons. They usually don't challenge above them. C1 however is the strongest player, but I am the only one who can beat him (so far), and unless he starts gemming, which he hasn't done before, I might be able to switch back and forth C4 and C1 with him, enough to score more than C3, if C3 doesn't go above that 
Goated movie btw. Heath Ledger RIP is my favorite Joker actor after Mark Hamill in the animations.
@swift mango wait, did you already lose?
or did you get pushed into a different bracket?

cultured man 
But my opponent this time wasn't him
this is why i try to place my teams taking in consideration whole top 16 and not just the winner, cuz we are also have 63 more players against us
This guy's luck ruined it

Thanks,sorry some messages dont show on discord for some reason im just seeing it now
how were you doing that
i check the teams of each top 16 qualifier and then place them in a way that if they change the positions i could still have the chance to win
I could never do that
That same guy in C1 in SP arena, once again used 200 gems to push me down in Rookie arena
He has used 700 gems in Rookie... Seems unlikely he would waste 700 gems there for no benefit and then not gem in SP arena 
So confused why he is doing that, been in the same bracket since shuffle and he has never ever wasted gems before this season in either mode.
just take some time when CA ends and check their teams, some changes positions but other just go with the same teams
every CA i always go with different teams but lastly i keep 1 or 2
Also I have not even once attacked him in Rookie arena. I dunno if me showing respect for him there has actually turned into some ego disrespect thing on his mind 

This is similar to yesterday, but he used ada to heal
That led me to defeat
He did lose 4 times in a row to my Rookie arena team a few days ago, but I have no idea how, since I have not changed my defense team at all.
And he has been going up in synchro at almost three times speed compared to me
Nah, i like cooking but i don't like checking everyone in 16
Is there a way to make it so that when replaying champion arena matches my team shows up on my side?
Label is the new PvP meta unit on the block, but fitting her into a CA team was... not so straightforward. Worse is that since she hard counters both Scarlet and Cindy, neither are good to run anymore, but building a brand new team would likely require a new non-electric B3 option which currently doesn't exist... Til then I guess I'm gonna conti...
Like this guy
thats how you develop your cooking skills
and create new cooks based on that
How do i know blanc links with vesti?
It's because most of my group are copying fahren, so i won't bother to check them again


Guys how can i know who blanc will indom?
lowest hp before she cast her burst
Does she indom one or two units?
only one
You can check stuff like that in the Union shooting range. after a few seconds pause and check the buffs
Whats the buff called
here an example
@versed mesa did u win
Ofc not
but thanks to that I got my cheer credits 
Uhhh, not sure, my Jackal teams have always been clear cut on who has the most attack so they get the link. So haven't had to check myself
always choose the believer path

@tropic summit i dont know why it didnt worked t1 was 951k against 1.042m and t3 969k against 990k also i get to lvl 460 yesterday so my teams wont suffer deficit as much as before
Well, it didn’t work because your vesti died before b2 even triggered
T1 noah died, but if you bench bay you're in deficit
T2 vestiTU is unlinked, as i told you to check whether she's linked else use the biscuit approach, i guess you didn't check
it's an headach making that matchup because we've to fit bay
do me a favour and invest CP in your pvp core units
I think we may be not in deficit even without Bay now.
And on t3 i did check double,tried it on mock too. Vestitu and helm had lower hps than siren
it's not the HP, it's the atk%, vestiTU is unlinked
@warm monolith
Iirc we wont be in deficit until 880k cp and we were 950k, Bay is 230k and the diff is 70k so 160k cp units would be enough
check if your biscuit fits then
and fix the other team indom biscuit indom instead, as long as you 2RL their noise dies
Dang,i accidently calculated hps...
how to win against this in rookie?
scarlet vestiTU trina laplaceT/emilia jackal, kill blanc in p2
My internet is so ahh. This is the reason why it tooks so long to respond
T1 noah biscuit lib rh swha
T3 vestiTU helmT blanc flex jackal, this time make sure vesti is linked since you already know siren can't be used
She is so close to 160k but i can ol her third gear(with todays daily refresh) and try again tmmr (out of attacks too) so she will be sufficent
flex can be anything, even bay if you need CP
Rail going for the mega fast libe
it's actually a 2.5RL lib, just need noah to B2 in time

tbh the curious part of that team is if moran is lethal'ed on trina buff with single buff lib
but i think she is
With no flex t3 its 761k and i need 837k,so flex unit needs to have at least 76k cp(which my every unit on syncro lol) so my only goal is to get 2RL(I hope my math is correct)
- take the enemy teams CP multiply 0.846, your team CP must be higher
- use https://nikke-deck.web.app/ to check speed
T1 needs to be noah 2.5RL with SWHA to be in time
T3 needs to be 2RL, you'll be regarldess because you're 98% to 2RL without even a 5th unit, as you can see here #pvp-arena message
Yeah,no i mean i know how to do the math of it. I multiplied the enemy cp with 0.846 and then i collected all the t3 units you said and then i subtrack the deficit cp from my flexless team cp to calculate how much cp does flex at least needs to have
that sounds way more complicated than it should be ok but do w/e you're comfortable with
now that's an interesting matchup, actually stalled a single buff ada-less vestiTU
now let's hope it matches an hyperbuffed vesti and the test is complete
if she survives that, your moran is gold
preferably against an equally invested whel like you
@jagged mesa look at group 6 
How did he change his defense again? I thought defense is locked for each SP Season?
Can I get some help with this one .. this time at least. I dont wanna try it myself and fail, only got 1 battle left for today
remind me, you built noise to have taunt priority right?
Yes, we built the noise together and she is 4% slower than Noah
i rolled the exact OLs on her u asked
oke as you can see he moved siren to p3

Yes, why did he do that? What changes?
meaning she now targets only p1 and you can no longer taunt her
Ohh
at that point it's actually easier, you move your noah from p1
so just need to mess with positioning in T1 case
Does it matter where I move my noah? Or who she switches with?
at the moment although you gonna need noah in T3 and indom in T1
Their team look slow 
Hmm, gotcha
bro you hit 340 odd sync and you thought def was locked? 😄
assuming we wanna triple win anyway, can take the easy way out and get T1 and T2 win
I swear I've read something somewhere about teams being locked for each season ..

ye both T1 and T2 are 3RL'ish
CA
Hit me with it. I'm out of resources, but I got almost all PvP nikke built at this point
we both had some wild ones it seems
just need to know, do you've rumani built?
I tried this. Only a bit close to winning
Yes, although no perfect OLs. Perfect OLs are very few on my PvP
I got the Noise/Noah OLs
Snow White is actually a monster 10/12 perfect OLs .. 2 OLs are acceptable. She is disgusting.
Vesti is nearly perfect.
she doesn't need to be fully built
She is full OL, but not ideal OLs
assemble these teams and show CP
(you're on the left)
ok you can run them CP is in range
blanc was still alive, you're not in deficit correct?
considered she's tanking scarlet s2, vesti ele weak and laplace + 2 small splashes, that's amazing she even breathes
Yeah I barely got by I thought I would win for sure but turns out my snow white can't kill moran easily
ye sacc it
That’s good my Moran helm set going up again sw Moran
may I ask how to calculate that? enemy's combat power is 1886584, mine was 1645319.
yeah no deficit, it's enemy score multiplied for 0.846, you need 1595 so you good
that blanc must be high core and on high tempering SR15
Experience may vary my snow white is pretty weak. Have sr14 doll cause cursed and only 1atk roll. Unsure if x4 atk would make the difference. Also I think Emilia was bad idea I'm too fast imo
the only thing that can kill moran easily is another moran 

at max core and perhaps with that tempering, it might be
can you share your box or link it?
need to change approach
These team should work.
T1 should be safest, max ammo cindy preferable
T2 requires ele on vesti or else dont run
T3 requires enemy snow to have lowest hp in link, so vesti gets to burst instead but snow has indom and you win

You may be right about that
or a super laplace maybe
kara already cooked, go ahead with his strat: #pvp-arena message
good, went as expected
remember if he does that again with siren, just switch rumani with noise and noah position as needed
will try this. thank you 
vesti to some degree (true damage)


Ideally, he realizes he simply isn't as cool as me (Or has a Railtracer on standby) and gives up 
it wouldn't have been this close if you gave me your cs and scar crit dmg


Thank you for the help @glad meteor and @tropic summit. I tried the 1st option first and it works
. I might do something funny and use gems and use the other 2 but need to save gems.
@tropic summitHello. Guy from yesterday did minor swap but I'm not sure how to approach it?
try to kill t3 with 2rl cindy? probably will not work because cindy burst is delayed and t3 is 2.5rl atleast?
same me too k


their B1 in T2 is vulnerable, can make use of that... or can stun blanc in T3 to prevent their indom
Have the CN overlord in my bracket. The guy I'm facing now literally copy pasted the CN guys teams in the same exact spots so surely if I win this next one I'll also win vs CN 

look out there's a rat next to you 

assemble these teams and show CP
last check run T3 in shooting range and confirm SWHA and siren are linked, siren must've more HP than SWHA
there is not much proection for T1 right so my cindy team should be fine?
okayy sorry just a s ec
ye T1 is glass cannon scar-ros, defender team is direct counter, it can stay as is
t1 and t3
CP is gud, check links in T3 and HP on SWHA and siren then you good to go
checking shooting range
siren must've more HP than SWHA
siren has more hp
nice, only links left then
Railtracer casually playing 127 pvp accounts at the same time, without ever logging into any of them

crazy jackal and jumping jackal on swha and siren
oke so swha is confirmed indom target, go get em
also I've wanted to ask whats current meta rookie def?
@glad meteor what a time for arena... you can run 2RL indoms with enough burst gen to slot a siren... i fear the future 
mine is kinda outdated with basic noise+noah stuff

More more more
1RL Nero/Moran coming soon surely
imagine 99% damage reduction at 1RL
Guys could i win against this guy , i already beat its third team but im not aire about what to use to counter its second team
you need 2.169k, deficit, highly suggest you try hitting someone else
there's no real rookie meta def, all of them are beatable
try running this
Meanwhile i have same defense since 4 months ago
99.99% 

@worn ridge assuming you still wanna try on deficit,
T2 is weak to noah biscuit cindy helmt rumani, up to 20-22% deficit
T3 you can nayuta vestiTU it, they've only p1 and p2 damage, nayuta trina liberalio/vestiTU RH SWHA/HelmT, up to 26-30% deficit

Ty for the tip mi always wasting my daily last attemp im always beaten to rank 5 when its about 30 secs left till reset
sounds like a sniperino
lovely strategy promoted actively by SU lack of QoL
clearly
havent keep up with the meta for a while but how tf did lib has 8/8 pick rate in a kr group
AOE nuke/good dps/burst gen
but you are libe no.1 fan, you should know
ik what she does and doesnt but im looking for mu changes that brings her userate up
couldn't have said it better
she directly counters stalls
slow cindy included
better win ratio than scarlet and SGs probably
at that point statistically you'd pick it up
p2 mihara
he wants to ensure she dies
for popping le DoT
taunts
ye he traded with that risk
p2 = hard to not killeroni
p2 = tauntable
CA is all about gambling you get the right matchup
don't really blame him
Well she 1 taps without a buffer against just about anything maybe besides moran? Noise/bay gets deleted
I wonder how much this is just commander level bias 😄
humm... so if label have decent use rate, its should be beneficial to lib
not like i can even ca without doing spa as a full-time job and burning thousands gems per season anyways.
3% frame vs lower % frame, easy choice

Hey all, my friend is having issues dealing with these teams, any suggestions? https://prnt.sc/8ULOQlopUsz5 https://prnt.sc/MrseZBSYGWlK
I put my maxed out Nayuta in slot 5 with this and its been killing everything
I was calculating beforehand and t1 is in deficit sadly. My team is 871k and i need 881k at least
So close
Also t3 is 3RL without flex but i can make it 2RL i think
top, bottom
invested blanc assumed, if she isn't probably have to move her to p3 in top party. SWHA should be the lowest hp inside jackal link for her to be indom target.
suggest not to set up this parties as def
Also @tropic summit t3 vestitu/thelm/blanc/trina/jackal 2RL 990k enemy and at least 838k needed and with trina its 883k should i run trina? I can also run tlap instead
Cool cool, I'll test it for him later.
hey guys why bay cover didn't take this?
Milisecond late maybe?
but there is literally cindy portrait showing up, doesn't it mean it activated?
Okay, so I sniped C1 with my second free ticket before reset... He is online, but he didn't take it back... I dunno why he would have been online for any other reason than to counter snipe, but he didn't... 
there is no easy solution to this i guess? all RLs would need to have better CS?
Could try adjutant cube if you aren't quite hitting a breakoff point for CS% to push for that extra speed
lowkey working I'm not even gonna lie
your time is UP, FOLIAN TIME
I do think he wins LOL
I told @wet crystal in pie discord that I'd trade a loss to being back in your sp and he said no 
I bet on you just saying, I better get my credit boxes 
nice
am i not good enough
wheres the self belief? the MANIFESTATION?
folian I'm literally saying you win!!
it worked only on the noah copies, that self belief bordering delusion
do u wanna join the pie discord
it's open to everyone 
your trick worked for me 
its ok i hardly have time now, im slammed at work 😭
i still dont even know what label does

speaking of work, back I go 
1 ada vs 5 nikke at 25% deficit, WHO WINS
You're losing ofc

brother i cant even make it past advanced
im evne bouncing between c3 and c6 now in SP
Can’t slack on farming stars for BAde frame 
everybody else full sent their cd boxes (and spent $ im pretty sure)
im holding strong for new story chapters
I mean you still have to hope cd/h milestone actually moves low enough
Otherwise you are only getting +1 cd/h anyway
i heard some people say its confirmed to move before mc hard

I couldn't save since all 3 of my main opponents went full on leveling spree. Needed to catch up on the CP boost they all got before mine. 
maybe i should open just a bit until 401?
Depend on if you can clear CC at 401
If you have to get to 410 to clear you save no box
pretty sure i can
Though I'm caught up on chapters so for me new chapters are only a small increase per box
i cleared previous CC with 7/7/7 ein too, if i open to 401 i might not even need to level ein skills
but i probably should anyways for MC hard
welcome to the hard mode grind
Just try to push as hard as you can at deficit before using boxes
im at 47% deficit
i still want to save for the 102cd/h jump though
I've cleared both normal and hm already 
oh so its mostly small pickings for you then
im trying to save for that yuge jump so i can jump 20+ levels in one go
Yeah
+3-4 cd/h don’t matter when you get credit bottleneck 
Too true 
ive been hearing about the credit bottleneck for a while and i havent faced it yet
i was promised id be short on credit like 80 synchro ago
I think I will hit it in another 150 levels
So many Nikkes to overload for SR and now PvP
You only hit it early if you buy cd
Credits run dry fast
550-600 should be the normal time you hit it
It was around that for me yeah
🙋
yeah deficit a bit too heavy on the cindy team, try liberalio instead of cindy and fit at least 1 buffer
if you got quantum lvl 7, this could work
lib should hit harder than cindy in this specific case
the noah bis lib rh swha team can be on deficit, T3 needs to avoid deficit, use w/e that keeps vestiTU linked
to check link run that team in shooting range / campaign and check "jumping jackal" buff on the unit
- start battle
- pause
- click on the unit and read the buffs
cover is intact, B2 didn't go off in time, remove cindy for liberalio or vestitu (need SR15 + tempering to attempt surviving rosa with an attacker, avoid using that B3 unit in p1 and p2)
this is a scenario of opponent with CS% while you don't, get helm 8CS% asap to avoid these situations
rumani and trina could both use 11%-15% asap
(11% to enable noah resistance to siren, so it also helps situationally in other teams)
another issue to inform you about is cindy in p2 against enemy RLs, you're making them burst faster, as they hit 3 hitboxes instead of 2 (cindy decoy)
that's 1.25x extra burst gen, particularly bad against jackal, they're likely around 1.8-1.9RL because of that
to put it simple, their fastest charging RL will kick them in something faster than 2RL, because it will be sufficient to hit the gen needed to burst sooner
thank you 
ahh yes i forgot about not putting Cindy in p2, but it was working before but i guess his CS made it a problem
you have 0cs on rumani or trina? 
helm is even less expensive, 8%CS and it does the job on most teams
clip RLs need 11% to start being impactful
then again in this chat we've seen ppl running vestiTU with less than 3%CS and s.anis with ammo OLs
just checking
no cs on rumani or trina is what ruins it for him here actually, helm alone wont save, he is too close to scar
and cindy in p2 doesn't help
those 2 together are probably screwing him
nah, not so much here, but yea it's a bad idea to run her in p2 
oof 2 frames gained... 
add adjutant on rumani and trina for ultra copium?
i'm just trying to check what his cs is
from frame data seems like:
enemy:
trina 15%, jackal 15%, centi 11%
his - rumani or trina 0 , and helm/bay whatever, if he had trina and rumani on 5% or 8% he actually could be few frames faster where it matters, but i dont like 30fps videos to check that stuff 
how much CS% you giving to enemy team?
i'm assuming 15% on their batteries, theoretically graph shows bay before scarlet still
i'm thinking it's cindy p2 afterall the gamebreaker here perhaps?
i dunno if nikke top considers cindy position for extra burst, probably not
gonna remove the 8% from helm to confirm
ye the 8% is useless here
This will be okay to go?
T1 and T3 wins
T1 direct counter
T3 you slightly outspeed, but it needs scarlet to be siren resistant, so check her ammo requirement
if she doesn't meet ammo requirement, put jackal p1, keep team 2RL with trina and scarlet and use a different flex than RH
for now i have initial rolls on both of them and only trina got single line xD
as expected, only 1 on one, need 5 on second one then it would change something there, but still probably need 8 on both, or better 11
gotta get those CS% lines
nah it doesn't
they also may overestimate scar counter, they count all hits she receive and return exactly 30% of those as energy, 30% isn't exactly 100 to be so sure it happens 
Is the ammo count for Scarlet to avoid Siren stun between 27 and 33?
from memory 40% ammo is still fine, 60% is iirc max before she's no longer covering when stun happens
32 ammo max
here you go
lowest should be 20
Well shit
I have one ammo line for 64.82% which puts me at 33
it's not gamebreaking, you can most of the time work around it
i used to run flex alice p1 to catch the stun in scarlet's sted
Yeah, most of my enemies not even running Siren
you can also use RH flex p1, she can B1, then stunned and allows for B2 and B3 to happen
since scarlet and cindy 2RL on defense are no longer viable, even less reason to mess with her ammo
realistically on attack you can deal with it as above
Yeah I won't reroll her ammo just for pvp, since she still has her uses for me on pve side
Not that I have the rocks anyway even if I did 
@dense kindle 
Hi Hime 
I fear that this is where my story ends

carry on my legacy 
I think i lose too at least according to voting 

Hime lock in







I'm out this time. 
Tough luck
All because my SW stronger than last CA. 
I lost to slow cindy cuz of this reason lmao
looking for some feedback if any, here's my box: https://www.blablalink.com/shiftyspad/nikke-list?uid=MjkwODAtNjk0NzgzNDI1MDUyOTc3MzU1OA%3D%3D
- 3rd team is just auto right now
- I'm aware that Cindy might face issue with Label
Odd quirk I was wondering about. If I have SBS or any other Wind ele unit linked with Jackal, would VestiTU actually do more damage to them all from ele weakness?
T1 bad
Youre feeding so much
No. But the shared dmg would be more if you hit the wind unit ofc.
T1 feeding? What
Youre making your opponent significantly faster
No I mean how? None of them are smg/mg/ar or am I missing something
Cindy in p1 is making the opponent burst after 1 shot
Even if they didnt, noah taunting to p3 is giving 25% more feed
Whats your suggestion then
Ok, I was assuming so. I changed my Rookie team that used Cindy, because of one guy who kept gemming, for some reason, and just hitting and winning it constantly. Changed to SBS, but then suddenly another player who hasn't attacked me in weeks came in even with a CP deficit or barely above. I'm assuming my SBS was getting killed too fast from a Vesti maybe even while linked. But not sure.
He stopped attacking when I swapped Cindy back
And count on sw to dps? Will surviving to get her 3.6s shot out be a problem? But ofc we have noah invincibility
Isnt that siren weak
I see
She wont taunt until burst tho
The dmg shared is based on the P1 unit being attacked. If P1 is SBS, then all linked units will share the increased ele dmg
Cant run that team tho, swha is the only built unit
It can be worked towards thats fine, is noise built?
I asked u about this before and u said siren will stun Noah 
Your positioning was too far iirc
There is some delay for retargeting
It was Moran p1 and Noah p2 
I mean yea definitely will work towards pvp units but that will take a while lol
Thats why im looking for something more intermediate

My knowledge is ever increasing
Next in line for pvp investment is probably blanc, then Noah
Noah first
And then the battery. Will be a while until it reach moran/noise lol
Blanc is usually in p4 or biscuit protected
Batteries also arent high prio for overloads
Noah is a battery, snow is, helm is, lib is
U were right before tho and now u are wrong so that’s not increasing 
Ive used that comp with vesti
Noah moran vesti bisc helm
Take a look at this 2 rl on both positioning, Moran never taunts for Noah
Ah got it cheers. SBS was in P3 so that wasn't it then. Then again could have been an indom on their Vesti, again if they were using her, though would assume so
I’ve done tests on this many many times
She’s supposed to survive or how am I supposed to test stun 
I ran a weak team on purpose
Is this pre-burst? Moran has no taunt pre-burst
Anyway is there any immediate improvement can be made for T1?
2 rl Moran Noah, Moran can’t stop siren from stunning Noah which stops Noah from burst
why does P1 cindy feed btw
@oak hatch
Her decoy skill will make enemy rocket launchers hit multiple targets, super bad and gives them way too much extra burst gen
Right?
That’s p4 siren tho so targeting is different
Siren in p1-3 would just die, I cant test that
Cindy’s decoy is weirdly position on her right. Near P2. So opponents attack P2 which is more targets = causes feed
Your case is just noah re-taunting at a bad time. Its a cs% issue
Her decoy itself also acts as another unit
Hence why she feeds in p2
Poli is another unit that feeds when shot by rl
guess I'll go with this for now, siren weak but at least better than cindy p1 I guess
My Noah 12 cs
u can ask kuwon about it, we had a whole conversation about it and came to conclusion she won’t have taunt prio
My noah is 5% cs
Replace ada with biscuit
biscuit only has R15, tank CP too much
Your noah will just die
Move Centi to P2 and its good
Yeah well kuwon is a stinker
All I can say is Moran may still protect Noah if siren is in p3-5 but p1-2 has already been tested where Noah got stunned
hopefully survive until burst, at least for my bracket
yea thanks, now I wait to see if I could defend my c3 with this lol
does cp matters in arena ?
Its what matters most
also that's what I'm currently using in arena, any imporvement I can do ?
so there's no way to bridge the cp gap (my nikke's are lv313 and most of my opponets are 400+)
I didnt say theres no way
there is... 
You gotta spend alot of money in that case
lmao, I'm f2p x)
Also depends on your invests ofc
that's not counting if he has proper meta teams or not cause if it's Meta
Thats why I said depends on your opponent
If they're running 3 campaign teams you get to become captain ahab
@tropic summit yeah, not enough to kill from full hp.
It's sad but it is what it is. Would need to chip SW or helm a bit with counter to kill without Crit. 
Maybe it's enough if there wasn't 40 level difference. 
Maybe I need 1 more line Ele
that 43% defense from snow working
It's because her sequence attack some how dispel Rosa concealment while Scarlet counter not
Double working
I may need to roll for 4th ele on rosa
so Rosa can't hide from Snow interesting
That's why people use SW in Scarlet team.

Imagine trying to hide but all places gets hit by a Missle in War
She got hit scarlet sword strikes and fing died but still hiding. 
yeah this is reasonable, i've had the same issue
costs linking rosanna or adding more pre-burst damage / buffs, makes SWHA even more precious on defense
Shift up even thought about making her tanky vs Rosa with that Defense buff
they've really thought about this
spoiler: they didn't, they don't account for these things, fairly sure it just happened to be this way
T1 is ok on speed but lacks anti nuke, still if you don't have much else it's not a bad team per se, consider swapping centi with trina, since trina can synergize with cindy
T2 trina is not a defender, won't synergize with biscuit, centi would if that was your idea here. SBS is a weak choice for B3, especially as i see you've SWHA, consider swapping them or using an instant nuker instead of a DPS oriented B3. Expect most teams to die if their 2RL doesn't have indom, anti nuke, nuke resistance or a nuke of their own
T3 unproteced noah in p1 and siren in p2 as your only B1... both wind codes... this is a vestiTU wet dream or a SG based team dream, lib is also a weak choice as her B3 is a delayed nuke, doesn't help it's a 3RL. Reconsider
Tips:
- your defense is as good as your 2 worse teams. Opponent here will likely skip T1 and focus on your two weaker T2 and T3, essentially this means your units in T1 are wasted
- consolidate in 2 strong teams, both 2RL or 2.5RL if possible, 3rd team can be CP pad until you've better pvp core units
- for the CP pad, consider p1 nayuta/crown, if crown add biscuit in p4 and then full pad it
yeah t3 was monstly a filler,
for t2 who(s considered as a instant nuker ?
BiS B3 for defense in most situations:
- vestiTU, best B3 on defense in most situations
- SWHA, unlike vestiTU won't be instant, but is close to and especially a good choice if you got nothing else, ideally needs to be indommed or behind noah or at least noise bay
- double buffed ein, trina buffed scarlet** (keep in mind label can now deny these, so pick others if available)**
- single or no buff cindy** (suffers from the same above if 2RL)**
- liberalio, but needs to be indommed or behind noah, weaker but possible behind noise/moran bay
and thats with sw debuff + noir buff + sw/counter tick...
I've got no pulls for label anymore and didn't get her :'(((
what's BiS ?
i think the def increase part is def out of nowhere for pvp purpose even if its not that much
it's fine, she's not necessary, makes your life easier if you're without noah and indoms to deal with scarlets, you've noah
best in slot
I went for this
swapped trina to T1
used noah on T2 for anti nuke
looks like a good upgrade
T1 improved synergy
T2 gained anti nuke and far more threat
T3 will do, if you've nayuta can use her in p1, move siren in p4 and alice in p1-p2, crown can stay p3
awesome, that wll do
does it still work even tho it's not even RL4 ?
opponent now can't easily campaign team against it as nayuta is blocking p1
your only B1 wind code is also away from vestiTU splash range pre burst
attack is based on what you facing, situationally you'll need a noah team against one and a indom/fast nuke team against another
and rely mainly on the first 2 depending on my opponent
1-5 in order of strength? or vesti+sw+slow cindy?
- noah biscuit is good for matchups where you need antinuke
- the other team, ideally a 2RL fast nuke or indom, can deal with the 2nd or 3rd weaker team
if you don't have already, wishlist/build blanc to SR15, same for jackal, and bring them to 4OL, 4/4/4
this allows you to run indom teams
example of a SBS indom
btw should'nt I swap alice and vestTU because in T3 she's not bursting
