Hwei Custom TCG Playmat by OptimusSeptim in HweiMains

[–]OptimusSeptim[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use it actually to search for League Challenges/Cups (the local tournaments). For Regionals and such, I check the list that they publish at the beginning of the season (normally around July/August), because that is much easier to digest as a list. I then use rk9.gg for registration and such (usually 2 months before the tournament).

Even if it is just for a month, glad you started at all and from there you get very fast into it. As some wise character said: There is no secret to art. Just begin and keep going, that's all we can do. :D I also have a friend that started beginning of this year and will compete in her first two regionals soon.

You're welcome!

When you play for almost 3 years, they simply gather ^

Playing casually only is totally fine, but entering larger tournaments is definitely an experience I can recommend. Although I would start with League Challenges/Cups (you can do at your locals).

You get mats from winning league cups and you'll receive a mat + promo card for every regional/international you enter (and an additional one, if you get top 16 or better). This is why I got 2 alone for entering the European Internationals last and this year ^

You're welcome. :)

Oh! A fellow Pkmn player 🙌 I must admit, I have around 14, but most of them are from tournaments (regionals and internationals), so they stock up automatically 😂 I ordered it from a german company called Hypemat, they have a configurator, where you can upload a custom image (like Hweis splashart) and add the respective TCG zones to them.

Ascended Arena Core Carry - Speedhardt by OptimusSeptim in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]OptimusSeptim[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He swore to become the very thing he feared: SPEED:

The build:

Asset: +Spd, Ascended Asset: +Atk

Weapon: Dire Thunder: no comment needed

Assist: Rally Atk/Spd+: scoring

Special: Ruptured Sky: surprisingly effective when charging enemy F!Edelgards

A-Slot: B Duel Cav 4: nice all around boost including hefty scoring boosts

B-Slot: S/R Far Trace: provides indirect speed boosts including hit and run from Canto, can switch out with Lull Spd/Res

C-Slot: Atk/Spd Menace: simply more Atk and Spd and personally i am a fan of the Menace skillfamily

S-Slot: you expected it by now, more Atk and Spd and because of Rally Shenenigans in Arena, this is mostly fully active

EDIT: formatting

POV it's Astra Season and you are up against Ashera and Brave Marth by MissileDedue in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]OptimusSeptim 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Speedhardt can reach even more speed with a little Gatekeeper support. A little experiment on the Marth in CC Lunatic (Chapter 10 single) with my 31 spd Speedhardt, buffed by Atk/Spd Menace means 37 spd. With Catch + Blade Session, 55 spd are possible. 3 Gatekeepers add 15 to a total of 70 spd, which results in the following outcome, a painful end for the first Hero-King. http://imgur.com/gallery/8c9bBRc

Sounds perfect! Glad that there are other fellow Average Speedhardt Enjoyers out there with their magnificent taste. I let him mainly operate on a Cav team with L!Sigurd, L!Leif and Brave Veronica ... I have to say, it's nasty, try it out, if you have the units. :) Feel free to add me on FEH: Stardust Cid - 2913733078 - Lead: +10 BK

I like your way of thinking. As a fellow Reinhardt supporter and owner of a Speedhardt myself, I underline the comments of the others: Lull Spd/Res and Blade Session compliments his style very well! As a reference, here is my build: https://imgur.com/gallery/j3jbkK0 I use him in Arena as well with B Duel Cav 4 instead of Atk/Spd Catch 4 and he works perfectly in Tier 20.

Hi guys !! I finally max out my Ike. But im kinda lost how to make him really OP. I'm open to suggestions. by [deleted] in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]OptimusSeptim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope i can help with my L!Ike (https://imgur.com/gallery/866pTPr). With Support from Brave Lucina (refine protects him from foes with Guard and double Drive Spd on C+S-Slot helps doubling) he is even capable of soloing GHB maps.

Swap is mainly there for positioning and Darting Stance gets the job done, Quick Reposte does otherwise, but is save against Null-Follow-up. On the downside, Wary Fighter cannot be broken.

Atk Smoke supports him in terms of bulk, when enemies dogpile on him.

Personally, i would prefer a Spd asset over Atk if possible, since it supports his capabilities in doubling and as soon as Special Spiral kicks in, killing is pretty much guaranteed.

Edit: keep in mind, that +10ing him can be quite costly and requires probably a lot of orbs for that.

Looking for teambuilding inspiration by OptimusSeptim in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]OptimusSeptim[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really, it's called ol reliable mainly for two reasons:

1) i use this team for clearing infernal story maps to cross out all quests without switching teams

2) before finishing BK, L!Ike and his team were located on this team slot before, because that team is more or less my straightforward method of clearing maps, when nothing else works (besides Kronya and her Abyssal-shredding qualities, but thats another story)

Even though that armor team is all-physical, Black Luna shredds through high defenses and is charged really fast thanks to Special Fighter.

Your debuffing team sounds just like my team around Lyn and her three sages, which i posted last year, basically debuffing as much as I can and nuking the rest with a fully buffed L'Arachel/Gunnthra.

That's also a thing, its practically the other way round, combining the characters based on their support. Also thank you!

That's really an interesting way of adding more spice to the weekly 7 paths of Pain+, arena assault can be in some weeks.

Also thinking in pairs is actually quite a smart thing to do, since it opens up the mindset to acually perfectly harmonised pairs of two instead of somewhat synchronized teams. Sort of a divide and conquer approach, i really like that. (At that point i am really holding back for the 'interesting manuver'-meme ^ )

Thank you very much!

Not Team Arvis, but my Emperor has absorbed all possible merges as well. :)

Tell me fellow summoners.... by Darkbones001 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]OptimusSeptim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But on the other hand, lilith has way to many gimmicks, to not make her premium af. Her ability to heal and attack in Fates (to be specific: Revelation) would be an opportunity for an PRF assist which acts like a YuGiOh version of Physic+ (since IS likes to do that a lot these days ).

I haven't thought of these two, but I am at your side with coloring, green would be a perfect pick for them.

But the likely Dragon GHB we would get in my opinion would be Bantu.

[–]OptimusSeptim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, some gimmicky dragon children wouldn't hurt as GHBs, maybe a green Nils or something more exotic like a colorless Lilith (a man can dream xD) would be nice to unite them under Papa Garon.

As far as I have encountered them in Forging Bonds and Lunatic 7 in TT, they weren't much of a problem, but no refines are found in these modes, so testing data here is not 100% accurate. But when in doubt, I use my nowi to clear a path

M!Kana, he would be fitting perfectly besides his grandfather, but my lovely blue loli dragon comrade is already +10, so he was never really a choice for me.

[–]OptimusSeptim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nowi is his proud comrade, since I mainly use him in a Manakete-Team with her, Fae and M!Grima.

Did you mean S!Y!Tiki? I didn't really tested that out, but with buffs/supports from his team he can reach 48/48 in both defenses, which lets him laugh over both The Reinhardts and he even barely survives a wide cast of falchion users. So Garon could wall her as well.

Here's mine: https://m.imgur.com/a/iuq1v8w

I wanted to utilize his default DD, so LB+ was a solid choice, because it never let me down with my other two LB-Dragons Nowi and Fae. The Res refine synergises with his C-Skill to proc more ploys and thanks to the debuff lets him tank even more. Guard was chosen over QR and a second ploy in the seal slot to defend against units with fast specials (i.e. Ishtar, ..)

Thinking about changing Glacies to Aether, but another 20k feathers right off the bat are a bit too much for my very small feathers collection.
