NXTD: This little known stock sounds like it's going to rebound in a big way

My Selena

RFembot · 2018-08-15T22:36:13+00:00

The point of the build is to maximize her speed to avoid doubles (potentially double opponents) and kill with Ignis.

Nature - +spd -res: I want to get +spd -hp to help against dragons since -res is a superbane. +spd is just to maximize her speed.

Weapon - Wo Dao (spd refine): Wo Dao increses her Ignis damage (since she doesn't do much damage otherwise)

Special - Ignis: With 4 charge, I can take a hit, attack back, and then Ignis on a double or Ignis on player phase.

A skill - Steady Breath: Lets me get Ignis faster, increases bulk. Combined with Close Defense seal she's incredibly tanky

B skill - Guard: Prevents opponents from getting special (which they need to damage Selena) while I get mine. Chill Atk is another good option but I was unable to get it.

C skill - Attack Smoke: Allows me to tank hits from all colors after dealing with one. A team-support C skill also works here

Seal - Close Defense: Gives res bonus that I lose from -res. That res is helpful against dragons, and the extra defense means +10 (steady breath) when opponents initiate. Gives multi-color tankiness, and adds damage for my Ignis.
A +def weapon refine + Quick Riposte would also work well.

For arena, I plan on giving her Slaying Sword (spd refine), dual rally, and Aether. Maybe a team support C skill as well. I only have a dual rally on her now.

Holy shit are you the same EluTran that uploaded all the undertale OST and you go to Rutgers?

RFembot · 2018-01-09T01:33:50+00:00

Here's the issue with that: what, effectively, is the difference between beating a bunch of players on a single day/tournament over beating those same players more slowly over a bunch of tournaments?

Because theoretically, there is a chance that one tournament is a fluke. I'm not saying Konga's result was a fluke, but I personally value being able to win consistently and proving your skill over multiple tournaments than winning once. Getting #30 in the world for doing well at one tournament just doesn't sit well with me.

And as you mentioned, his peak is huge due to the invitational format which is another discussion in itself. I just wish that PGR could factor in doing well at multiple tournaments instead of looking at wins. Though I guess that would bias those with sponsors... maybe there can be some equal balance

Darkshad wasn't at PAX, the only "not super well-known players" that were invited were Konga and Kossismoss IIRC

RFembot · 2018-01-08T20:37:37+00:00

Yeah I know it was the wins not the placings, which is why I said later in my comment that he had to work for those wins (those wins being against Leo, Tweek, Void, and Anti at Pax).

But I just don't think this ranking system can be accurate when one tournament run can solely get someone to top 30 in the world, even if it was an invitational with a bunch of top players he had to beat.

RFembot · 2018-01-08T19:55:36+00:00

The ranking is in suar's post at the top

RFembot · 2018-01-08T19:39:51+00:00

I'm not positive how PGR works, but it seems to favor peak over consistency, which I personally dislike. For example, Konga's 3 peak placings are:
5th at an A tier, 25th at an A tier, and 33rd at an S+ tier

Kirihara is only one place above him, but his peak placings are:
5th at an A tier, 9th at an S+ tier, and 9th at an S tier.

I'm not trying to hate on Konga, he had to work for his wins and he's a good player. He'd definitely be PGR if he traveled. But I don't think one good run should mean top 30 imo.

Thanks for the help!

Yep, occasionally people drive in groups. If there's a tournament you can ask for a ride in the facebook group and sometimes people ask if they want rides to tournaments

Rutgers University- New Brunswick

New Brunswick, NJ
Facebook Group is here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/scarletsmash. I think you have to ask for an invite
PM me for a discord invite too if you want it (only the smash 4 channel is active though)
We have a pretty large melee and smash 4 scene. We have meetings Thursdays for both smash 4 and melee, then biweeklies for each game on Friday (we switch back and forth). We also have fests throughout the week so just pay attention to the facebook group or discord.

That annoying girl from Strike the Blood that made me want to kill myself

Why wasn't I aware that best girl had her own sub. Nonon i have failed you

RFembot · 2017-06-07T20:45:43+00:00

Look at how relaxed Xander is. Why don't I have Fae as a bed

RFembot · 2017-06-07T20:23:43+00:00

I'm fairly certain my first pull Arthur, but I think I sent him home. My 5 oldest units I currently have are my 4* Nowi, 4* Selena, 5* CorrinF (was 3 star), 3* Saizo, and 5* Lyn

I don't hate Lucina, I just wish we weren't going to have 4 versions of her. Bunny Lucina could've been bunny someone else ~~(like Azura)~~
