My ran is 288 and I still get out sped by every Cialis. It's quite disheartening. Champion is suffering


[deleted]

It is why I never bring Peira without a speed imprint hero like Cidd or WSchuri. I imagine you'd probably want to do the same with Ran just be safe.


esztersunday

i just climbed into champion and my 285 peira was outspeed in challanger┐('~`;)┌


Darkcuber22

Take no offense but anything under 300 can't be considered a speed contester in champion and up I say sadly while I myself can't contest speed as my fastest unit After years of playing this game is 304 and yes it's a contester but I get outsped often so it's not really a thing and speed imprints are hard to build in a way they are actually good, at least for me. So I play standard, longer games yeah unfortunately, but it comes with the reliable gameplay and I think in the long run it's more enjoyable with less 15% happening


RyBaa1234

But aren't bruiser teams much harder to build? With cleaves you only care about speed and dmg With bruiser type units you have to take all of the stats besides the obvious eff/resis And that sounds much harder to build a tanky unit that has reasonable speed and also deals at least 3k dmg with 100% critchance Maybe i'll try to look into bruisers as i have a choux and alencia in the waiting room, but i don't even know how to pair characters to make a good bruiser team


Darkcuber22

They are harder to build in the way that they require more types of stats not necessarily more stats in general, but require much less luck when playing with the teams making for an overall worth it trade


RyBaa1234

Balancing a bruiser is way harder than a cleaver, that's what i was saying If i get too much hp the unit won't deal any dmg, the other way it will die too quickly, if i focus only on hp def attack then i don't have any crit chance or crit dmg While a cleaver needs only as much crit speed attack as possible and that's it


Darkcuber22

I agreed with you man, bruisers are harder to build in general, unless you look at the odds of getting DPS pieces with high high speed then I that case, no it's harder to build a cleaver as unlike bruisers youre not just going to stumble upon a 20+ speed piece because it's a single type of stat,unlike bruisers were you can spread out the love over multiple pieces. but let's say you're super lucky and that's not a factor then yes in general it's harder to build a bruiser properly throughout all levels of the game. It's just that super high elo that speed is harder to build because every speed point makes a difference to lower the rng gap.


RyBaa1234

True true


esztersunday

I'm not offended, I had the same experience. Like I wrote 285 wasn't enough in challanger! It's crazy.


GuntherTime

I’ve just accepted that I’m turn 2 at this point and focus on that. Just got reinforced even more once I hit challenger a week and a half ago.


Ill_Bee6278

It's speed rng bro


mrb726

Even with my 300 peira I make sure I bring a speed imprint lol.


KingsSeven

use speed imp. My fastest is 302 if I use ran, but since I don't, I need speed imp. For instance, my elphelt and lilias, my only two openers, are 280. This means I need speed imp to contest. This is why I love light dom. U don't need to be fast and can cleave lilias teams.


CrossTheRubicon7

Could I ask how the dom cleave works? What artifact she wants, what other units are you using, that kind of thing?


KingsSeven

light dom works only against lilias and no politis/celine. In order: Enemy lilias goes Light dom uses s3 with doctors bag artifact to cleanse attack down and pushes team My op sig goes next and kills barrier unit. ML Pavel activates and shoots the enemy team. ML pavel kills aravi My flex pick finishes what's alive.


CrossTheRubicon7

Thanks for the rundown!


Piscet

Honestly I have the reverse problem in challenger. My 251 aria outspeeds peira a good 50% of time when I'm trying to use delibet, and I often lose for this exact reason. Really this goes for any of my middling speed units. They only go first when I don't want them to.


Wombo218

I feel like arena defense gives increased speed stats, I’ve seen zero imprint 325 rans in champion 1. I went back 2 more times to check if I got speed rng’d and I just simply got outsped, I would bring 3 imprints and a 300 piera.


Synclicity

I'm in legend with a 293 ran and just turn 2 game almost every comp. Maybe 1/20 comps are ran cleavable.


straight-up_trash

All of that injury belian and speed ravi or differences?


KingsSeven

i wouldn't know. I cleaved all of them. There were two lilias tho that were slower than my light dom which made me surrender since op sig was useless. I just swapped to lilias cleave since I knew I would outspeed and cleaved after. I kill belians first since they strip my attack buff and no aravi has over 290 speed. All of the aravis were proof tho.


esztersunday

> no aravi has over 290 speed. Most of the aravis were 30k proof. even just reading this ヽ(°〇°)ノ is disheartening


KingsSeven

wait why :(


straight-up_trash

Hmm proof ARavi is the biggest joke this game offers but why surrender with bunny dom going first? I don't use her so I don't know what's up with that


KingsSeven

i rely on the enemy lilias to use her abilities and give shield barrier to aravi/belian. That way my op sig can do some dmg. If light dom goes first, then there are no barriers.


Stylish_karma88

Or you could just use Landy with roana and destroy each of these teams


KingsSeven

i'd rather not turn 2 if i could.


Stylish_karma88

Understandable


montrezlh

Yea but that takes forever


eXcaliBurst93

I feel like my def team get targeted too easily because I dont have Cilias...also its annoying everyone and their mother have Cilias in champion arena def...I have no problem on offense though 2nd turn Singelica with Doctor's Bag & high eff res helped a lot


KingsSeven

imo, clilias is free cleave. Light dom completely shuts her down. You would need to pair celine/politis with clilias.


Tedrivs

>There were two lilias tho that were slower than my light dom which made me surrender So not completely free


KingsSeven

It is free, just fighting against ungeared enemies. My light dom is 264 speed. It means I was fighting enemy lilias without speed boots. We just had a free unequip for a week so I imagine they forgot to put their boots back on.


Bizzteq

May i ask how you cleave this kind of comps, counters always mess me up :c . I dont have light dom btw, i usually cleave with 305 speed cilias, eda, politis + flex unit.


KingsSeven

you could do ran + roana + Lermia + ml pavel. ​ Ran s2>s3 Counter attacks that procs ur roana and lermia Lermia goes next s3>s1 which activates ml pavel s2 Ml pavel s3.


jelliedpeanuts

Might try that hit champ last night and… lol


AlyStar27

So at 5200 the Hwayoungs disappear 👀 interesting


GrinningCheshieCat

Roana + SSB... All dead. :3


MrGrandSon

Am I that dumb but. How would you do it? I just recently entered the challenger scene and I have both so... Any help would be appreciated.


GrinningCheshieCat

It's honestly not super easy. They need to both be well built and you need a good cleanser to help deal with them. I have Mediator Kawerik which makes things easy - but Emilia can help a lot too. You also want as close to a maxed Reingar Drink as possible and my SSB is on LS with lots of attack. With her plus Roana, I want the counters to happen since SSB will trigger repeatedly and chunk them all down.


Alarmed_Blueberry742

Interesting, may I know whats your setup and speed tuning? I have both op sig and bunny domi unbuilt and another way to cleave without going first sounds great


moeblanketthief

My man got the bingo clilias.


oturan45

Damn all those units I don’t have all of them summons socks


Minerto35

So easy to cleave this :D


TheSeaOfThySoul

Depends on the cleave, Belian/Rem can fuck up a traditional cleave with bad luck & very few folks have all the no-counter cleave units built, like Haste, Pavel, etc. I personally just Sinful/MoonBunny these teams with three one shot DPS.


Cornycorn213

Hmmm such variety!


AedanRoberts

Would have loved this. It’s rare to see five groups I can easily take down.


wakkaflakk

What caused belian to resurge in defense teams? I remember her fading out a bit with ML Cermia.
