Aw junk, this new banner blows. I really need a blue that doesn't suck, and I'd really like it to be ranged :(

Yeah, that's what I mean. My only other ranged is Elise, who isn't very good anyway but my only other 5*. I got extremely unlucky with my other rolls and everyone is subpar three-star units. My red is Tiki and my green is Camilla, which seems to work out halfway okay even when half the arena fights I see have Takumi in, and I'm not willing to give either of them up. I'd drop Elise if I got a replacement though :v:

Yup! I use a team of full 40's now since I dropped Olivia in favor of my new strategy of just walling everyone off with Roy and Hector while Nino and Jeorge shoot them from behind the meatwall, and the arena has never been easier. I haven't seen a single takumi.

But, I also know that folks think male Robin is awesome (he seemed underpowered when I was using him, but that was as a four-star)

What's his IVs? I could see, like, +HP -Spd being positively horrendous. For me, +Spd -Res, he destroys sword lords at a distance and tanks hard if they get up in his business. Ever since bringing him up to speed, I basically have a 90% win rate on every map except for gently caress These Fences and Bullshit Lava Maze.

Yeah I am probably replacing Camilla with Nino. She seems way too good paired with a Rally Attack and other silly buffs

Camilla is pretty junk. Her mobility is ok, but she's crazy vulnerable to... well, everything, and since units can't fly over walls anyway, it's smarter to take someone who can just shoot over them instead.

If you already have a Dancer, Nowi will end up being more useful anyway. Mine's -ATK and she's still amazing. Beats Takumi 1v1 and walls stuff all day long.

Why are you running a red? It takes two people's units at random (one from your flist if available) and whatever you have in your first slot.

Because it was the unit in my first slot? I dunno man the stupid thing gave me all units that nobody in my flist had and I get the feeling that if I wasn't running a red, I'd have just as much of a chance to get a team of all blues or all greens. It's just dumb :shrug:

Depending on the reds you had the blues enemy had that doesn't sound unwinnable at all.

Lucina and some teal hair chick, versus Reinhardt, Lucina, and also RobinM :v:

Their placement was unlucky and difficult to bait so my own -res RobinM got alpha'd hard, and I shouldn't have to illustrate what happens when physical attackers engage RobinM.
