weekly check in! Uh...Don't mind the team I was goofing off in an off meta arena. Either way, been having lots of fun and only about 70 pts away from Emperor! Fighting!

Unit Showcase - Openers

A different kind of showcase today, today we are looking at a couple of my (not very fast) speed units. Let’s take a look!

There are two types of opener, debuff centric and buff centric. Please don’t look at my gold, I was speed checking gear.

Debuff Centric:

All are as fast as I can make them and keep certain stat breakpoints, but in general these are decent enough for rta. I dont really try to race unless I really think they are bluffing or I have a chance. Rinak is really fast, I know, but she isn’t an opener and functions more as dps. Same goes for Lidica (built dmg) and Briseria (also built dmg, but Renewed Will to function as a bridge.)

Peira is tech against other SPP and Hellions, as well as doing well in this meta with her restrict and unbuffable. Just gotta land them.

Hellion is the equivalent of a follow me indeedee in a trick room comp, pokemon players. To non pokemon players, she is the fastest form of non hard cc, like stuns or sleeps. Stuns and sleeps can be blocked via passive or DKS but not provokes! My most picked and highest win rate, incredibly fast cycle and fun to use.

SPP gives your team a massive tempo advantage. I once heard that you dont need to land your debuffs with her and to have her lower eff. Hello? Her speed down and push back combined with giving your team a speed buff can be absolutely pivotal.

Buff Centric:

My sweet cr push girlies. Frida is technically better but the swift attack buff and skill null can be amazing into units like bwa who want to rip your face off for trying to nuke units. Frida is specifically on Doctors Bag to save me from Moona by cleansing the seal and unbuffable so I can actually do my thing.

Both should definitely have ER but I don’t have that kind of gear..

Unit Showcase - Bystander Hwayoung

This build is still SO bad. This unit is notoriously difficult to gear at a good level AND she ate all my Hwayoungs. I’m really sleepy so let’s make this one quick. Good anchor, good against debuff comps.

Careful into Light tanks, not enough molas right now. Somebody please save me, every unit is eating every mola I own. I’m so POOR!!!!!

Milestone!

I made it to Warlord with a very positive win rate! Certified Wahoo moment!!

Barely in though, lets see if I can stay here. When i first got to champ, I went on a lot of odd loss streaks. I hope I can end Warlord but let’s see how it goes!

DP Aria - Continued Thoughts

My current win rate with the unit everyone is hating is 80%. Of course I'm not spamming her every game, because im not an absolute maniac, so I have to say a few things. "She only works if you have prexisting ER" Oh my god and grass is green! Very good, Maddy! ER to EFF is literally 100 to 0, where you need 100 more ER than your opponent to resist 100% of the time. So giving 40 ER to your 0 ER units isn't going to do jack shit. I don't know what you guys were thinking!

This was a close 1v1 where I was able to outpace the Elynav and kill her, through the push on s1, Durandal and the actual considerable damage of her S3. The shields helped immensely saving me from the injury as well. She couldn't soulburn into me for the increased and fixed damage because of the soulburn cost increase.

Once again, a close match that I won because she didn't have enough souls to soulburn at the time of her s3....

...which then let me close out the match with my unit advantage. She could only hit Aria, healing up to full and slowing down where my Shoux could lap. Once again, she saved me. This game is like competitive Pokemon. You have to be aware of your unit advantages, placements, abilities and how you interact with everything else around you.

She may not have a use to you, but that does not mean that she is useless to everyone. Get a grip.

Also,

Almost Warlord, let’s see how she settles after new toy syndrome and people figure out how to counter her. Or maybe she’ll get emergency buffed like Hellion Lua. Who knows at this point!

Unit Showcase: Disciplinary Prefect Aria

Once again, I changed my build. Turns out it felt like shit when they’d draft Mort! Who would’ve guessed! Anyways, presenting DP Aria 2.0! She has a couple of reforges left to go, so she’ll look better in a bit.

Durandal was still the right choice, healing arti’s feel like you’re just throwing. This unit needs cycle and a LOT of it. Pair her up with Hellion Lua, Urban Shadow Choux, Sea Phantom Poli, Lone Wolf Peira, etc or use her in full ER tank down. She is not a cleave anchor. She is not a draft like an insane person unit, like Brunka. You have to use your brain and draft her correctly.

She needs some additional help on her scalings or improving her self cycle but overall, she feels fine. People saying this unit is bad just want every unit they pull to be the next broken thing and give into powercreep. I dont want another Brunka or Rinak, she is fine. Not horrendously bad, not amazingly broken. Just…fine. And I think that’s okay.

Honestly, as someone who doesn’t have Belian, I love you Aria.

Unit Showcase: Empyrean Ilynav

Guess who I pulled yesterday! Time for the first unit showcase, I suppose. Alright, giving the run down: I tried a full ER build and well, it really felt bad. Mostly because her injury damage stacks up fast but if she's not critting....she's not stacking up that injury as fast as she should. In general, just a bruiser build with Bastion of Perlutia because I feel like that gives her a good chance to stay safe with the 15% checks. Also keeps her safe from Mr. Mortelix, who is still terrorizing RTA.

I don't have good bulky gear on pen just yet so she stays on crit. You win some and you lose some.

Still learning how to use her though, so I haven't brought her to RTA yet. Should be a no brainer but I want to limit test in Arena before messing around with her in a harder area. Also I saw reddit sweats today saying that Sea Phantom should be 300+ to be usable...are they fucking crazy? Are we playing the same game? Who is trying to outspeed Lidica's, Rinaks and New Moon Lunas with SEA PHANTOM POLITIS? Then again, it is reddit.
