Aw yeah.

My first Assault run, full Advanced. The finale had an F!Grima that didn't bring her Cancel Affinity, so I sent Lyon and S!Camilla with their raven tomes to go to town on her. Putting QR3 on L!Ike allowed him to bait and beat the NY!Azura and Camilla. S!Camilla blasted Clair. Final score, 5,136.

Cordelia hit an HM milestone in the run.

I've been banging my head against the wall for hours now, trying get a single no-kill run. Current mood: Dancers should be banned from Arena.

Just this time I want to enjoy having such a score D=. 
I admit that it is just luck because of Camilla, I can only say that I am very happy with those 4. Not only do I have a scoring team, I also can say that with this teams there is little room too mess up on this range. 

There is nothing much  to improve the score as an f2p. Only saving orbs and getting lucky on legendary banners can improve the score. Which is not worth it for me, now I want to save up for Rinkah and pull more for gameplay and fun projects.

Did my last minute AA streak and managed to get mostly good-scoring matches this time. Even with no blessings in play for me this week, I'm managing to hang on in top 3k. Still safe in tier 20 for the week as well (with Soleil+4 instead of Effie for that).

Also ran into this on my 7th match:

Let out a cackle as Alm and 1 dancer were still available. All those poor +10 Myrrhs have been erased.

Season 74 Results:

Score: 3,652
Defense: 616
Rank: Tier 20 --> 20

Canas was one of my most anticipated units in this game, and has thus far been a 40K feather investment.  Enemy-phase builds are my jam, and he got the star treatment despite his underwhelming stats and crippling merge potential.  He served his purpose well in both his TT, and in a pinch during my main arena run.  Setting it up isn't reliable, but 49/54/39/34/43 stats are pretty fun to work with on an infantry mage with CC.  Res Tactic doesn't function on this team of course, beyond simply being a 240 SP skill.

Hopefully I can get some more Nanna merges from the next legendary banner for Razzle Dazzle shenanigans.

About 330 orbs spent on colorless, and not a single Nanna.  I pulled every other staff unit multiple times, but not the one I'm looking for...

Arena Assault:

Rank: 3,814

We're slowly creeping our way back up to 3K.  Tiki should be +10 by the end of the month, so we'll see how that contributes.

Had some trouble getting my streak in regular Arena this week. It's definitely this rotation of maps that gives me the most trouble. But I got it after several dozen crests and a lot of rage. lol I was also worried that my score would drop drastically with no blessings or legendary hero bonus unit, but I managed to float around in the top 2500 pretty easily. I did run a slightly less practical build on my Celica to boost her scoring potential a little bit more, but with the stat bonuses, she did her job just fine. And the AoE special actually came in handy quite a bit. 

AA took me a few days as well. Once again, I had to hand out a few more blessings to some of my more commonly used counters. I'm still not sure how I feel about this system overall, but it is nice trying to use some different units instead of the ones I always use. 

For Arena, I ended up with a score of 3668. And for AA, I got 5188 (so close to 5200!!). Both were good for around rank 2300. And then 10 defense wins. Wow.

Nice, both Ice Dragon and myself have run into that team before as well. It appears it has changed a little bit with some new skills that have been introduced since I saw it.

 

 

Dang, Not having the Water season to boost my initial team in AA saw my rank go from the 50-100 range all the way down to the 500's.

Offense score of 3662 (T20) remains in T20, combining with a defense score of 634 for max rewards.

I ended up rolling with Sharena as my bonus unit this week. She rounded out a team of Marth (Altean Prince), Caeda (Talys's Heart), and Myrrh. Caeda and Myrrh carried, as intended. I might go full fliers again next week with Camilla. I just realized there's a full 4 seasons with this bonus rotation, plenty of time to use all the teams I can come up with.

Went down to tier 19 as always. I'm starting to have my doubts of whether my team will be able to stay in tier 20 without dual rallies when I'm done with merges because my score is starting to stagnate. I guess Moonbow isn't going to cut it so I'll switch back to Aether when Cordelia and Sheena both reach +10. On the defense side, I only got 2 defense wins which makes sense because I've been playing with my skills quite a bit for GHB/BHB/LHB stuff so my defense team isn't really consistent.

No changes in AA, still in the top 10k.

Trying to knock out area early this week and tried giving my Effie a shot on the main team.

(I know it's not impressive since it just reset, just 33 looked nice)

I'm surprised I had no trouble without a red unit, despite the plethora of +10 Legendary Hectors I ran into. That sure didn't take long for the whales to swap him in. Camilla was a champ and destroyed them all. Even without the bonus buffs I think it would have been be fine since Cordelia can poke for good damage on green armors to help out if needed. Effie actually did nothing the entire run and Peri got just 1 kill. Camilla and Cordelia are a beast combo.

And here I am just being happy to make the top 20k cutoff at 19717. :P

Wind and Fire teams are all horses so I don't have the slightest hope of returning to T20, will just cop my demotion. On the plus side, got a defense win already. I went to the dark side after a defenseless week a couple weeks ago and built a team around Guidance F Grima.

Already got my first defense win, so I can give my Cordelia Emblem a last chance. 

Could finish my arena/5 streak first try, the score doesn't matter since its 20->19 week. AA gave me a  defeat on match 5 and 6 already. 

@Alkaid Cool rank!

Tonight's Assault: 5,076. One death, Y!Tiki fell against Caeda danced up by NY!Azura. I was paranoid that if I had fielded my archers, she'd have danced and wiped more than one of them out. Sad thing is this is still better than when I was chickening out and playing 5/6 Intermediate matches after my Advanced run. Once again, I forgot to use my items.

More than made up for it against my final opponent: Cordelia Emblem + Selena. This one was a nail-biter, I was fielding Arthur (4+10 budget anti-lance), Oscar (unmerged), Lyon (unmerged), and Performing Inigo. I forgot to check if Bridal Cordelia was running Cancel Affinity, and thankfully she wasn't. Arthur and Oscar kept Lyon safe from the lance Cordelias, leaving Lyon to safely get rid of Bridal Cordelia. Selena held up longer than I thought against Oscar and Lyon, but ultimately succumbed.

I finished my normal arena run with a score of 3,612. Should be good enough to go back to tier 20, also got a defense win already so I'm free to change my skillsets for future GHB/BHB clears. 

I had a pretty busy day so I just did the 3 quest runs in AA. I'll do the full run tomorrow although I don't like the Fire/Wind season that's currently going on. Let's hope I'll be able to stay in the top 10k at least.

welp i  broke the 5200 line in AA with the new legendary Hector... 5278 and that Team had far from optimal Skill point setups. Wasnt even 4 armorers

 

EDIT: I also want to note that dealing with quadruple Lector with 4x ward armor + dual rallys and no armor boots to seperate them is shit without an Armorsmasher weapon on a green or red unit... In AA i would have just picked out Sanaki or a Firesweep bow user or a Healer or someone else but in Arena I was fucked lol

Wouldn't Zelgius be able to chew through them thanks to Black Luna laughing at high Def values? I also imagine they'd have a bad time against Tiki, but I'm not sure if she scores high enough to get into the score range that throws around 4x Lector +10.

they werent all +10. And as said i wasnt in Arena Assault but in regular Arena so :/. I mean i can deal with him, but my red sword unit cant handle 4 of them without back up or some healing lol

My Cordelia emblem doesn't get any defense wins (got a fast one with my regular Arena team), I changed to a Summer team with Tana, Corrin, Frederick and Cordelia. 

Quite happy to not meet quad Hector teams. My Roy wouldn't be able to deal with them all.

Yeah, I know. Just mentioned them because they're high-scoring, all-purpose Arena choices that I think can reasonably take on four of them without an issue. Zelgius is physically tanky and Black Luna lets him out-damage-race them. Steady Tiki can just drain tank to victory and TA3 Tiki wouldn't even take damage while wrecking Hector on the counter.

Today's assault: Blew it against a Cordelia Emblem, with Eirika replacing Selena. Whoever that was, your team is easily as cancerous as the Flier Emblem that screwed me out of a deathless yesterday.. Ragequit and took the three-streak rewards for the day.

Building teams of counters is easily as exhausting as a full Genealogy chapter where everyone is Arden. Second runs of the day are still for suckers.
