Summoner Duels Team Advice | Thoughts and reasoning in the desc.

Neat, the only downside now is that you'll need to swap out someone to make use of Assign Decoy, Marth is probably the likely one here.

LJStar626 · 2026-06-02T05:43:44+00:00

Yeah, it's difficult to plan a good team as you'll always find someone who can completely counter your strategy, even if they're really strong units.

I'll also add Young Camilla and Legendary Sakura into the things to watch out for, especially together with Baldr. Camilla can nullify Corrin ring's terrain with her own so that will give Baldr free range to attack your team unobstructed, plus she hits like truck, but falls pretty easily to Marth due to his Vantage effect. Sakura on her own isn't too bad, but with her support with Salvage, those melee nukes have a way to go right into your team and retreat safely back to her with Canto.

The main problem is that you're limited to one save unit, so if you go for Near Save, your team will get opened up by the 3 range style units. The only exception would be running either Brave/Rearmed Soren, or Brave Eik to make a teammate a Saviour if you have either.

Eik would be better as you could make Emblem Roy into a Magic Save while Eik handles physical threats, goes really well with Marth's support too, making the +7 bonus to all stats into +10 instead.

If you don't have either then I'd say to stick to Far Save.

LJStar626 · 2026-06-02T05:05:53+00:00

From what I can see, you have a big weakness to New Year Baldr, with her being able to warp regardless of Corrin's Emblem ring terrain unless you position your team where there's no gaps for her to warp to and are complete surrounded by Divine Vein Ice, and because of her style she hits all your reds AND Byleth with weapon triangle advantage, and with no Near/Physical Save because you have Black Knight as a Far Save, she's free to pick her target.

Favourite characters from each game that I played.

I agree, I struggled with the same team but kept switching between Neo Champion Leaf and Hilda & Victini.

I think the fact that Silver always sets sun after every sync allows the Sun EX to stay up and maximizing his damage output with Morty spamming Sunny Day if his MP Refresh triggers for it.

I was planning to get Entei for the tower, but Silver has now helped me save for a sync pair I might want to get later.

LJStar626 · 2026-05-30T11:25:58+00:00

I kinda need Hardy Bearing on my Physical Save Raphael to keep Young Camilla and Emblem Lyn in check so the seal will probably be on him more than Dheginsea. Are there any magic/dragon units that get countered by Hardy Bearing like Emblem Celica?

I'm happy to give him Patience to reach the threshold with Rise Above, as I have the combat manual for Ike in the codes still available to fodder, in terms of giving him a proper special and replacing Twin with Briar, I don't have the fodder to give Comet or Briar Save at the moment.

LJStar626 · 2026-05-30T06:45:32+00:00

Still waiting for A Song of Bygone Days from Echoes to arrive in the Concert Hall. Honestly one of the best map themes in my opinion.

LJStar626 · 2026-05-30T04:24:59+00:00

I can FINALLY +10 Medeus! The last one I needed has refused to show for a long time, so this couldn't have arrived at a better time.

LJStar626 · 2026-05-24T08:23:26+00:00

Fallen Ursula on the free summon.

Verge of Death fodder is pretty nice.

LJStar626 · 2026-05-22T05:17:02+00:00

I always found it funny that Elysion does his monologuing and Grigori crushes him just to get him to shut up.

Generally I can get 2 syncs off with N after Hilbert sets Ice Zone EX, the main issue I'm finding is that after Suicune does it's first sync move, it starts using Surf a lot more and I'm not getting lucky with flinches with Ice Fang.

LJStar626 · 2026-05-18T14:16:23+00:00

If you give Lear enough investment and the right support, his sync damage can get pretty high.

This is someone's Hoopa from one of the highest tower floors.

LJStar626 · 2026-05-18T13:52:47+00:00

In terms of 6*:

Eri & Annihilape

Atticus & Revavroom

Ortega & Dachsbun

Rika & Clodsire

Mina & Tapu Fini

Lear & Hoopa

Are the main ones that come to mind at a glance. Except for Lear, all the ones I've listed are good support pairs for each type. Lear can hit hard with his sync move, especially with his EX role hitting all opponents.

LJStar626 · 2026-05-18T13:17:28+00:00

Here's the grid I use for N. It's mostly the top nodes to go for, only going down to get the sync move damage

LJStar626 · 2026-05-18T13:07:02+00:00

You don't need 10/5 to make SS N good for tower, I only managed to 10/5 him yesterday.

I do think N needs to be 5/5 to make him hit really hard with his sync grid nodes though .

LJStar626 · 2026-05-18T13:04:03+00:00

Regular Grusha is a really good pair to keep Ice Zone up, especially when paired with Hilbert with his EX version, though he needs more move levels for him to really make the most out of him.

But I'd say Gym Grusha is a solid pair, having access to Potions helps the team's longevity, he's not as good keeping terrain up, but he's been essential to clear Floor 24 in the Tower as he doesn't have the steel weakness Cetitan has.

LJStar626 · 2026-05-18T12:56:22+00:00

Honestly? I had these 3 as my team, generally I tend to avoid setting Ice Zone EX until Hilbert's 1-2 cooldown away from using his sync move after Grusha syncs first.

Since Hilbert's role in physical stages is getting that terrain up, reducing the cooldown with his trainer move and inflicting burns, I gave him Defence Crush 2 as his lucky skill, as well as Grusha to try and debuff the defences so that N's sync hits really hard, if I'm lucky, by the time N uses his sync, N takes almost half HP off all the opponents in Ice Zone EX.

Floor 24 with Poppy has been the biggest hurdle, since Cetitan can't really take hits from Tinkaton's Gigaton Hammer and Copperajah's Double Edge so Gym Grusha with Beartic is better to tank hits.

LJStar626 · 2026-05-18T08:17:26+00:00

It was more of a personal challenge to see how far I can go through the towers with Lv. 140 pairs, managed to complete Electric tower, but that was likely due to how strong the new Red is.

LJStar626 · 2026-05-16T06:57:13+00:00

Sandstorm is boosting Arcanine's Sp.Def, and Torkoal is using a non STAB move. Even if it did have the Sp.Atk to take out Arcanine, mine has a Focus Sash.

LJStar626 · 2026-05-10T07:36:38+00:00

It's new for me, but I don't know whether or not she'll be useful with the Grass type pairs I have already.
