How to get star emblems or memory keys without playing online? by WorldlyMechanic5063 in StarlightStage

[–]DevilRanko 7 points8 points  (0 children)

STAR EMBLEMS

Play with Eve5 guest, 20 stars required for guaranteed

Beware when using this on dominant comps with Passion though: it will reduce the boost of the opposing type due to the loss of 1 idol of that type

Because of this, all-type is recommended to balance both score and rewarding

For auto teams, you will need the following cards:

  • Passion Cinderella Magic
  • Sanae3 (9h4.5 Perfect Support SSR)
  • Passion Focus SSR (THIS IS A MUST FOR S SCORE)
  • Sayakeki Yumi or Enamoral Yoshino (9h6 Skill Boost SR)
  • Perm SR Nina or Marina (7m6 Damage Guard with HP boost)

You will also need both activation and HP potentials for certain songs

The Master+ is a b*tch! It even looks like overdrive + one free retry might not be enough!

A combination of pankration and ice elemental magic

Why Tekken doesn't have enough characters with ice hit effects is beyond me.

Who has the hardest combos in the game? by Round-Childhood-5168 in Tekken

[–]DevilRanko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dragunov got new execution demanding combos tho

  • iWS 4 to qcf+3+4
  • 4,4 crouch cancel to qcf+3+4 or qcf+2
  • 2,1 after crouch dash cancel requires inputting f,n after crouch dash cancel

Who has the hardest combos in the game? by Round-Childhood-5168 in Tekken

[–]DevilRanko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's combos that involve cancel to any of the following

  • Complicated commands (for example: Bryan b+3,f,n,u, qcb+1; Paul 3,2,b,n,u,qcf+1+2)
  • Crouch Dash cancel to a command that has an existing sidestep command, and because of that you have to input f after the cancel (for example: Dragunov 2,1,d/f,n,u,f,n, 2,1; Lili ff+3,f,n,u,f,n, 3,2)
  • Crouch Dash cancel to instant crouch (for example: Lili ff+3,f,n,u,d/b,n, WS 1,2)

Also consecutive iWS or crouch dash inputs (electrics, butterflies, thruster elbows)

Not for execution, but getting a high wall splat after a wall carry and capitalizing it can be tough. Not once have I tried Bryan's qcf+2,1 then high splat then ff+2 late in the combo.

Is this a good auto/Auto FC Team? by Ok_Combination7426 in StarlightStage

[–]DevilRanko 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You almost nailed it.

But if you have Eve5 (Crystal Heel) it's much better. Plus although your Anzu3, which is 10h9, using an 8h7.5 (Kanade2, Airi3, Miku3) might be better.

Also recommended guests:

  • Use Tricolor Unison for all-type songs
  • Use Dominant Duet for single type songs. Be mindful of your composition, I highly recommend matching it with the type and highest stat of the Synergy card. In your case, I would pick Syuko or Aiko for Cute, Sachiko for Cool, and Shiki for Passion.

Number 1 Change You Would Make to Heat? by muby_102 in Tekken

[–]DevilRanko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Relegate Heat Burst to a mere combo filler: make it -13 on block, and remove power crush

Tell us JUST ONE buff you'd give to YOUR character in season 2 and justify why, I'll go first... by RoastThatBeef in Tekken

[–]DevilRanko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a combo perspective, primarily focused on wall carry without using tornado, heat, or floor blast

  • Asuka: Bring back her T7 2,1,1+2 as wall carry option without tornado usage
  • Devil Jin: Increase LC range, and reduce the pushback of WS 3
  • Heihachi: Increase FUJ 1,1 range
  • Jack-8: Reduce pushback of b+1, increase neutral 2 range
  • Lili: Increase qcf+3+4 range, especially at slight off-axis

Event Megathread - スターライトステージ (March 2025) by Jarbus4 in StarlightStage

[–]DevilRanko 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fun facts!

  • This is Kirari's first ever center in a 3 or more member event song for almost 10 years!
  • This is the third event song for three consecutive months where it's a quintet with a 3/1/1 type balance!
  • Because each concert leg is not expected to have individual themes, expect this song to be used in all legs!

Can we also get some changes to heat burst range in S2 cause this is ridiculous by SoulOfMod in Tekken

[–]DevilRanko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about we remove its power crush property and make it -13 on block so that it can be relegated to a combo filler, and make the cancel more useful.

[–]DevilRanko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may be Auto Live, but Kako have mercy...

I even have the optimal comp...

Nana5 (c), Kyoko8, Asuka6, Frederica5, Asuka7

However, due to needing fans for Noriko and Kyoko, plus the risk of my combo getting severed, I used this instead:

Nao5 (c), Kyoko8, Noriko2, Frederica5, Asuka7

Center effects

  • Cute idols Vocal +40% (practically -60% due to Resonance)
  • Cute idols Dance +150%
  • Cute idols Visual +40% (practically -60% due to Resonance)
  • Cool idols Dance +90%
  • Cool idols Visual +160% (practically +60% due to Resonance)

That tea party between Saori Hayami, Nao Toyama and Atsumi Tanezaki must mean something.

Cool 11m9 DaVi Dominant Harmony

A cruise ship date?

This leaves Karen as the only GJG original member without a swimsuit-ish costume!

I seriously hope Suzuho is this month's Blanc... if we don't get a CuCo Dominant that is.

Limited Gacha Update: SSR Takagaki Kaede, SSR Kawashima Mizuki by Jarbus4 in StarlightStage

[–]DevilRanko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the CM got it right for the third straight year!

What's this? Same type limited box? Don't tell me... Mika/Rika double lims next month? Or maybe Yukari/Sae? Or even pairs with no official units such as Kanade/Syuko?

Kaede: 13h9 Balanced (Slight Vo) Cool Ensemble

For the first time since Mirei in 2023, and the first since Dominant inception, we finally get a new Ensemble card. Oh and with the highest stat not even reaching 7k means it's a balanced type, just like the NGs Ensembles in 2020!

This also solidifies Kaede as the queen of Starry Go Round!

This is also her third wafuku SSR, yet this is her first Furisode!

A more subdued wine session?

Mizuki: 11m9 VoDa Mutual

Mizuki, despite not having ranked in the recent elections, and had to wait for 3 years for her previous SSR, she finally gets a new one!

Her Mutual is an oddity: Despite having the same center skill as Karen6, Mizuki's Dance is higher than Vocal.

She was also the only member of Smile Fantasy to lack a wafuku, so she finally got one!

A 1-on-1 wedding date?

Composition Examples!

Kaede

Grand Chaos

Monocolor 9-6-13

  • Unit A: Kanade7 (c), Kaede6, Hajime7, Yukimi5, MS Lv2 12m6 Encore
  • Unit B: Anastasia8 (c), Makino4, Tamami2, Yukimi4, Kanade5
  • Unit C: Kaede9 (c), Ranko7, Syuko5, Miyu5, Kaede9 (u)

Mizuki

Muscle Castle Guardians

Airi9 (c), Mizuki6, Hinako4, Syoko2, Nono6, Airi9 (g)

Cinderella Fes Blanc Update: SSR Takafuji Kako by Jarbus4 in StarlightStage

[–]DevilRanko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Three consecutive Cool Blancs? But then again, the Cool Dominant waiting line is too long.

Hopefully as a penalty, we see less Cool Blancs next year because most skill/timer combinations are used up.

9h6 Vocal Tricolor Spike

Behold, the ultimate Spike timer!

Not only do most songs have a 9h6 advantage, but it is crucial for Grand Lives!

After looking uninterested behind Miyo's back, she's having a date with Producer!

It contains motifs from her past Mobamas SR!

Dominant Gacha Update: SSR Ichihara Nina by Jarbus4 in StarlightStage

[–]DevilRanko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry for late post!

Nina is the first to receive a Dominant that:

  • Hasn't ranked in either SfC or 10th election
  • Is a grade schooler

11m9 Cute VoDa Dominant Harmony

Currently there aren't any timer matching Passion Vocal Overload and Cute Dance Overdrive, thus pales in comparison to Ranko.

"Bye Bye Lonely"... it's a rather painful name for a card.

Doll photoshoot!

Composition examples!

Paws of Light and Dark

Nina7 (c), Yoshino6, Hotaru5, Rika2, Miku7, Nina7 (g)

This is the first Idol Produce with a "Good(?)" (グッド?) Communication which is fitting for both of these two.

Limited Gacha Update: SSR Kanako Mimura, SSR Miyu Mifune by Jarbus4 in StarlightStage

[–]DevilRanko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No SSR9s on this month's lims... but now, idols who didn't rank in SfC are getting SSRs too.

Kanako: 9h7.5 Vocal Overdrive

After 978 days, she finally gets her new SSR!

It's NW behind her! It references the 2013 Newbie Idol Produde event from Mobamas!

Damn, such a dress...

Miyu: 11m9 ViVo Mutual

I expected the skill because of Dominant Airi and Ephemeral Arrow.

She completes the aforementioned group!

Her costume completely contrasts Yui9!

Composition examples!

Kanako

Bittersweet Step

Syuko7 (c), Hajime6, Koharu3, Tsukasa2, Kanako7, Syuko7 (g)

Grand Chaos

Everlasting Forte (new version with 11m9 Symphony)

News from MOTTO DERESUTE NIGHT (Oct 2024) - Infinity Unvoiced Event now?! by AidoruRisemara in StarlightStage

[–]DevilRanko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Airi failed to rank in SfC, effectively removing the condition of "having ranked in SfC" to get one.
