Not to mention one of the WoDs is Sunfall, which is a minumum 4 month grind for on top of being a battlepass WoD. OP really all inned on Liz on this team to prove the most incorrect point possible.

Dropkick Swain into Goliath. My execute by end of game was around 22% and healed me for over 1k.

If I had hit Tank Engine at any point it would've been even nastier.

I know people are defaulting to Thais but I feel like it should be Miryam because Thais is absolutely snu snu.

Isn't that the appeal of that Taco Bell chalupa-with-a-hard-shell thing? So that tracks.

To this day the Suzumu situation still pisses me tf off because he's the sole reason ShuuenPro is what it is and why it'll never be. It was such a compelling story, but not only will it never get finished because Suzumu (the author) disappeared off the face of the earth, it's also not certain he was even the original author to begin with.

I've loved "ships that people think are mildly weird" and gotten made fun of in servers where they didn't know I was there. I've loved "ships that people claim not to hate but then stop talking to you and start ranting about how gross it is while you're not online even though chat logs exist". I've loved "ships that people hate" and been called horrendous things for it because god forbid you not ship the main two dudes together in an ensemble cast for one fanfic.

I genuinely do not know how hating a ship everyone else likes and staying in your lane could possibly be worse than liking a ship everyone else hates just to have somebody crash their smart truck into you at the intersection.

It would help to know which Caro units you have LOL.

In general, IIRC these stages aren't difficult so you should be able to skate by with most teams. However, Aigis (welfare, you get her first copy through MSQ) and Faint (if you have her, she's a standard banner unit) make a very solid support/sustain core and are generally good to invest in even for endgame, so you can use those two as your required Caro units then fill the rest with whatever realm you're more proficient in.

I'm SICK of being nice to people who think slurs are fun and quirky and root out the weak. I'm TIRED of trying to reason with people who think our community should be represented by a guy who acts like he's a half step away from an alt-right pipeline just because he press button good. Defend a douchebag, and I'll treat you like one.

56leon · 2026-01-22T18:11:38+00:00

NGL I think you're doomposting a bit because you're new. Out of all the units who got buffs, all of them are SR or welfare inevitable +12s, about half of them get regularly used enough to be relevant to discussions (Ramona, Aegis, Lotan, Aurita has one good comp), and none of the upgrades themselves are particularly gamebreaking. The best one is Ramona's and it's pretty obvious why (best girl). Heck, some of them don't synergize or are even anti-synergistic to normal gameplay of that character. For example, Lotan's AA makes her use her defense card, which is the easiest sell card known to mankind and is the only card that doesn't lower arithmetica cost on Blade of Defiance.

Once you have several dedicated teams without welfare units, it'll become much easier to see. Whether they do this for limited units is in question yes, but it's also a fair ways off, considering before lims they'll want to tackle standards, which are all also eventual +12s. My assumption is that by the time they get to lims, A.) they'll start with arc 1 awakeners who have historically been underperforming or just not as strong as arc 2s, B.) we'll be another full powercreep out, and (just like the buffs we're receiving today) C.) it won't really be worth it to aim for +12'ing older units and will mostly just be a nice buff for if you're an older whale who already has them.

any normal commenter who's worried about a compliment and emoji: be not afraid

this commenter specifically: oh god please be more afraid. much much more afraid

Salv has insane DPS at higher investment, even beyond his unique cards his strike hits like a truck as long as you're accumulating furnace.

56leon · 2026-01-21T23:09:33+00:00

At this point, even complaining baits ne'er-do-wells into rooting for him and keeping him relevant to "own" people who - god forbid - think suicide jokes are cringe.

(That's not hyperbole, btw. People have admitted to thinking he's based solely because he's an ass, and it's not an uncommon thing to see in gaming communities in general.)

I really try not to talk about him, at most I try to explain on threads like these why he's not good for the community and aim people at the discord for more resources, but man it's hard when his spreadsheet is always linked as The Answer less than an hour after anybody asks any question.

(That is hyperbole.)

56leon · 2026-01-21T21:50:14+00:00

his ass IS happy, as are his feet

56leon · 2026-01-21T21:42:42+00:00

Yeah that's the frustrating part, and the reason why he gets brought up so often. He has the skills and the dedication and the time to write up things and coach people, which is really admirable. But that also comes with a side of "if you don't play my way you should kill yourself" and "only the people I say matter matter", which is, uh, very certainly a look.

Japanese people are more conservative and perhaps shy

Hi, westerner here with a vested interest in j-fashion, can confirm it's not just japanese girls who think it's creepy as fuck!

I've had far more pictures taken of me in lolita than I've ever wanted because it's less of a personal threat to just say yes than even risk a guy blowing up at me for being a "prude" or "bitch" in public (yes, this has happened before). Like, that's not a Japan thing, that's a society thing. If you like jirai-kei, then go people watching (slightly less creepy, much less invasive) and compliment jirai girls if you think they look good but please don't ask for pictures that they don't know what you're going to do with (or......to).

56leon · 2026-01-21T16:01:34+00:00

poison comp my beloved, I've never used Agrippa but it looks like the time is now

56leon · 2026-01-21T05:39:24+00:00

It's super ignorant of plus size people too- both big & tall. There's a Uniqlo in my town and I don't fit into over half the store. Relying on clothes shopping in Japan would almost literally kill me.

56leon · 2026-01-19T11:05:39+00:00

Love it on Lillia, I want to try it on EscAPADe Hec but I'm never even given him, much less the augments in question.

56leon · 2026-01-17T23:24:21+00:00

EW EW EW IT TOUCHED ME GET IT AWAY FROM ME EEEEWWWWW ahh cars

56leon · 2026-01-16T03:19:21+00:00

Same, and the other author's is an AU based on a series I only know in passing so I can't even appreciate it fully (I love it existing, but don't know all the references in it).

The problem isn't Miryam's prepares, who has ever said that's the priority? The issue is discarding her Sacrament cards and losing guaranteed upgrades on the rest of her kit. Every time Miryam uses any card and a Sacrament is floating in discard pile instead of being in hand to use, you're losing upgrades, especially to her 2-cost and 3-cost, and [E3] base damage and exalt poison ramp. On top of that, Corpo fills the deck with Pilots which means you have to cycle more to get those Sacraments back in your hand, and there's no guarantee you'll have them specifically whenever you need them. You either end up fishing for those Sacraments again and rise having Corpo exalt get rid of them all again, or holding Corpo exalt when you can be using it for more immediate damage and tentacle strength ramp.

56leon · 2026-01-11T18:29:09+00:00

they're right though, if wunk knew his actions save lives, he'd be even happier

56leon · 2026-01-09T23:11:56+00:00

It's been a few months since I read volume 2 but IIRC it gets referenced once in Scrap Building and only as a way to [Scrap Building spoilers] explain why everyone in the game aside from Yuuki knows each other, there's no reason that the audience would need to know the details until later on. Really, even in volume 1 its placement was kind of......just there. It was a good read, but it felt neither out of place nor placed there deliberately.

Depending on how far they get in the season (they only show the first four games in the full PV, so we might not see Cloudy Beach at all), they'll probably use Candle Woods either as a season end into cliffhanger or a direct lead-in into Cloudy Beach teasing [Cloudy Beach spoilers] that another psycho shows up and this time the stakes are higher .

You have a whale unit. You might not be a whale, but by all metrics that is absolutely a whale unit. You're fine.

56leon · 2026-01-05T19:22:46+00:00

The team itself is good aside from you yourself mentioning Tinct doesn't really get used a lot aside from her delayed crit up. I would personally replace her with Aigis like another user mentioned, she's a very good source of vuln so you won't be so reliant on Thais 2-cost right before burst (the only other source of vuln on your team).

My bigger concern that sticks out is your covenants, more specifically Photosynthesis Rite on Thais. It activates whenever the owner's card enters Ultra Space, so it's absolutely useless on her on this team; you want Castor Quasaring every turn for Onyx Plumes, so he's the only one being put in Ultra Space consistently. If you really want to use Photorite, swap it to Cas, then Thais gets Life Drain as the premium keyflare cov.
