Late but better than never~ Defs was not as hard of a map as it could have been. Once Alear is by himself, he's much less of a threat @Diovani Bressan - Brave Marth has been carrying a lot lately, good to see him easily tank M!Alear's fists of fury. The Marth team is always on the upper hand against Dragons no matter how busted they are~ @GuiltyLove - Getting trapped in a corner with Alear seems terrifying, but it looks like he was actually trapped with the Pegasisters rather than them being trapped with him. Despite being a new dragon, Alear could not out-dragon Team Lilith and Grima! He's a whole lot less scary on his own.

Once I get the Divine Codes for it, it's the first thing I plan on getting. The Elises are at a point where they need all the help they can get.

I was very close to giving up, thinking it was just impossible for Elise Emblem to take care of Ike in any way. Null-C, Penalty Neutralizing, not to mention Canto Control making it harder to hit and run. Obviously, none of the Elises can tank him, none of them are Blue so we aren't able to hit him extra hard either. I wish I didn't have to end up going down this route, but 12 Paths of Pain+ was the only thing I could really make use of here. Which basically meant I had to spend more time thinking of ways to keep enemies alive than killing them. Took me forever to also remember that I could Gravity Ike to keep him in place since he doesn't cleanse penalties. Fortunately, the first two turns are free for chip damage and keeping some of the Armors alive wasn't that hard, either. I just needed HS!Elise to hold onto that Lethality so she could get the kill. I think I am gonna have to prioritize getting them better B and C Slots. Having two healers is already a major penalty in that they can barely get most new skills so S!Elise and HS!Elise are going to start having to carry a lot harder. @GuiltyLove - No shame in cheating, I had to do it, too. Frankly, the fact that she was still able to do so much damage is pretty impressive considering how hard Ike works to drag down your overall damage. So nice work! @Diovani Bressan - That was a pretty wacky strategy! But chip damage is one of the best ways to take Ike down and I didn't see Miracle coming at all. Really smarty idea! @SatsumaFSoysoy - Even though it's been a while, Lyn is still a beast at tanking one of the newest omega tanks. Sometimes the best answer if you can't beat a tank is just to out tank them until they can't heal anymore. Will be a godsend when we get a Fatal Smoke Seal.

Sorry for the late reply. Dazzling Shift lets you warp! And yeah, the double Ploys are super useful. I grabbed this one from Rearmed Sonya.

@GuiltyLove - Very fun team dynamics, the kiddos held up pretty well for themselves~

I didn't have much trouble either, considering Camilla doesn't have any kind of Null-C or anything like that. Just staying out of range is the only thing to really worry about. @Diovani Bressan - Nice and easy one-turn! Less warping needed when W!Marth can just kill on the EP. @GuiltyLove - Good thing the enemies on this map outside of Camilla don't hit particularly hard. The few times the Whitewings needed to take a couple of hits were no biggie, nice work!

Perne himself was a bit annoying but everyone else was pretty easy. @GuiltyLove - No problem for Team Macedon, either, a lot easier to get the map started when you don't care about the trenches.

Not often we can tank a Brave Bow~ @GuiltyLove - Nice and easy for the Dragon ladies. Hopefully we'll get a Green Lilith soon. Ooo OG!Maria was a nice addition to the team. Palla can pretty easily handle most of this map. I didn't know Est was already +4.

Need to backtrack and drop a few clears, but I'll start with the newest one. I had some fears after I lost Lunatic but usually just changing my strategy solves things just fine. I actually had a worse clear the first time which involved a lot of turtling around Marth, but I guess I messed with the AI in a way to get Marth and Lumera to separate, which made killing Marth a lot faster. @GuiltyLove - Good clear! It's a bit unusual to see Claude needing a couple hits to get the kill, but these maps do have some tanky enemies. Congrats on clearing with the almost Catria Emblem! Warping really helped on this map to stay away from danger when needed. @Diovani Bressan - The newest Marth joins the party! Though Winter Marth was actually the star of the show here, his refine is a lot stronger than I thought it was. Nice work! Maybe Emblem Marth will get more time to shine than Legendary Marth.

Yeah, I lucked into a Gullveig on a pretty low pity rate just to give it to HS!Elise. I figured it would be useful for these new maps to at least slow enemies down. Hope you can grab at some point! Wasn't expecting her to survive two hits from Alear, either, so that was pretty lucky!

Yeah, it's surprisingly come in clutch in several recent LHBs with the ability to provide Guard without having to attack. Since Holy Pressure gives Gravity, Elise's Staff's main selling point can still be pulled off.

Admittedly, this one was a little rough with just how much range these enemies have. Fortunately, they can be slowed down to some degree and Elincia really doesn't have an Enemy Phase to speak of. So as long as we kept our distance, the map wasn't super hard (though I did have to mess with almost all my Skills so thanks map). @Xenomata - Hope you enjoy your new games! It was fun having you around~ @GuiltyLove - Tanking Elincia right off the bat is both terrifying and impressive. R!Grima is no joke! Once she was out of the way, the rest of the map was pretty much a cake walk. I thought Elincia's own damage was scary, leave it to Catria to deal 125 damage without a special to her. She might be the actual Undaunted Queen here. @BoaFerox - So, I heard you liked Flared Sparrow. That clear looked a bit personal for Team Tana. Perhaps Elincia will think twice about warping shenanigans in the future!

Quite an easy fight...somehow. I still don't know how I cleared this one so quickly, it was right after reset and everything. I was only goofing around seeing how far I could get before bed and it ended up being surprisingly straightforward. @GuiltyLove - Still amazing how Catria can just one shot Abyssal level enemies, her Prf is so strong. Speaking of strong, Spring Maria feels super slept on lately so it was nice to see her tankiness here! @Diovani Bressan - The Falchion boys not even needing their Falchions to take out the Green Dragon! Very impressive! @BoaFerox - Nice new Skill for Dagger Tana, Flared Sparrow is perfect for extra chip damage during these one turn clears! @Sasori - Flare Raigh! He's picked up a new skill, too, I see~ And with the SS4, his merciless massacre packs a major punch. Lucius is an adorable addition to the team, too. @Yggi - Even without too many of the brand new, busted skills, the Judgral team is still plenty capable against these new LHBs!

Been doing a lot of work lately but I have time now to go back and tackle the recent LHB/MHB topics I haven't posted in. Wasn't a hard fight once Freyr couldn't make use of his buddies to reduce damage. @GuiltyLove - Rearmed Grima was good to have on this lineup. There wasn't much Freyr could do to her while the rest of the team chipped away at the remaining enemies. Nice to see the standard Whitewing lineup was still capable even without Grima's help with all the warping fun. Meanwhile the Dragon Lilith Grima combo team had little to worry about with their evil bodyguard. @BoaFerox - Always good to have a Dusk Uchiwa to take care of pesky Cavs like Freyr! @Diovani Bressan - Double Ninja Katana and a Shuriken Cleaver, that was a pretty brutal assault against Freyr and friends. @Some Jerk - A fresh face of some new lethal dancers! Larum tanking Freyr was admittedly not on my bingo board but I'm happy to see it was possible nonetheless!

@Diovani Bressan - Wow, mostly Enemy Phase clear, those aren't common, but with all the trees, it was a smart decision! Good job, Marth team! @BoaFerox - Those trees were no problem for the Tanas! Super easy clear for them!
