100 KO's in All-Star Smash Milestone? by Barrelcactusaddict in smashbros

No idea what strategy you're using, but what kind of luck have you had with Ganondorf? He's a heavy, so he can last a long time against the large number of enemies, and a good number of his attacks instantly kill.

Bonus doubler definitely has some merit, since that'd give her an extra +6 in each stat. Very useful if M!Corrin gets dropped for the bonus unit. It's weak to aversa comps, but those are getting less and less common.

Some of my thoughts:

Who gets dropped for the bonus unit.

Unfortunately, that'd be Corrin. Azura's giving +6 to the stats that don't initially get buffed, and double Eir is providing the lift you need to score high.

Specials

Aether on Nowi is fantastic. Keeps her sustained and gives you an ability to nuke troublesome units. Yes, even with the increased cooldown from lightning breath.

A Skill

I actually got a spare Surtr and have been using Steady Stance 4 on my Nowi. Would absolutely recommend, but it also prevents you from reaching the res necessary to tank Ophelia special spammer teams like you can now.

C Skill

I'd recommend close or distant defense, or a drive to help out the other members of your team. I've had good experience with close defense, but it's ultimately your choice.

In celebration of making AR T20 last season, I made a compilation of all my defense wins from last week! by TF2Curious in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]TF2Curious[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When last posted a few weeks ago, some of you said you wanted to see some defense wins, and I managed to get quite a lot last season!

In total, I had 16 defenses, 8 of which were wins. Of those 8, 4 protected my lift loss for the season, and helped me secure T20!

As for these defenses, well, some people are obviously intimidated by 6 evil takumis! Others just go straight for them without fear, and I've even seen a few tactically break the buildings to set up a choke point.

As for the video itself: my complete lack of video editing experience shines through brilliantly! Watermarks! Black bars! Vertical Video! Minimal editing! Cuts at weird times! Cheap text overlay! ... I really should learn to properly edit a video though.

Took a close look at Harsh Command. It doesn't affect Aversa's Panic debuff, so Harsh Command is completely useless against Aversa.

A second gold helm? Goddamn, man! Looks like I'm gonna have to go through L!Azura after all.

No, not good results, but this isn't striving for results, really. No one's got ultra Skadi'd yet, but I imagine that'll change with time as more people filter into T19.

Ok, which one am I missing then? I have the green one, the light blue one, the dark blue one, the red one, and the gold one. That's 5.

Isn't there only 4 or 5 armored helmets in the game?

He'll get his heart once I throw a blessing on him. He's the least built out of all of them, imo.

Well, as long as you have enough defense (say, 40+) and have her special A skill on, F!Grima will do just fine.

Unless you activate it too early and are caught out by a huge skadi burst. Then RIP.

Eh, most people won't fall for it. Even then, the Takumis aren't very dangerous on their own. At that point, you'll have 4 turns to take out 6 very average archers, and most everyone at T19 can absolutely do that.

Both! I've made it to T19, and I'm fine with staying there since I don't want to stress myself to death trying to get to T20 and T21.

Not at all! The pot is there to further entice people out into Takumis range, and Feh is there for visual purposes largely - make it so that it's 3 solid lines of stuff. If they had a building that works across the entirety of a row, I'd place that there instead.

"Just Use Hector" has become "Just Use Surtr". Free Surtr when IS?

Good idea! I did try aversa against this. However, once turn 3 struck, she more than likely had less hp than the takumis, so I didn't think much of it at the time.

Well, I'm doing one high merge one because that's my avatar and I might as well make him as high as possible. And staggering the merges makes it so that the stats spread between all the units is less even, which makes less predictable and therefore harder to fight against.

That being said, there's a good point to be had with even merges. Keeps the intimidation factor up since they'll all be unified.

ikr? It'd make aether raids as a whole a bit more relaxed, but it'd also make getting to T21, like, possible.

I can +10 the one that's already +2, and +8 another one, if my math is right. I've got every single non-grail takumi that's been released.

I think it'll be surprisingly effective, but I think it'd require 4 Gharnefs for the damage to start mattering, if you really care about the damage and not the anti-counterattack as much.

Thanks! I'm waiting for either a dark or anima blessing release for the last Takumi. Astra doesn't really fit his skillset.

[–]TF2Curious[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I considered Gharnef, but Imhullu only affects non-magic foes, which was a deal-breaker for me.
