You can avoid using the ball despawn bug with Nian S2 and a less silly approach for the last wave, but I didn't think it was very interesting (Nian S2 holds for 35 while Penance breaks a ball + a standard wave 2 approach) so I went for the funny spawnkill. If you add better VG you can probably clear without VG attacking enemies, but I didn't think that was interesting cause with that DP output the rest of the stage is trivial. What's interesting about DP challenges isn't spamming more vanguards IMO, it's interesting when it forces you to change up tactics and evaluate different approaches by how expensive they are and when they need to be deployed. In this case, the total amount of DP to spawnkill the middle defenders is much less than the block route. But there is no way to get the DP to afford the spawnkill early on in the clear, and I have to put everything off until the end hoping I'll have enough DP. Every deploy I made was done thinking about how they'd contribute to solving the big problem I put off for the end + breaking enough Kristen balls to stop the boss.

ah yes the great healing defender, Myrtle, who makes up for her lower-than-average DEF with a passive regen and a heal skill and Fang, who has a slightly-higher-than-expected DEF which makes up for her 2-block
What a chad strategy. Faced the challenge in a way nobody expected to be feasible and came out on top. Now I kinda feel stupid for spending two days' worth of practice plans to clear this with an actually efficient team...
Hypergryph: *creates stage challenge that Defenders (and Guards) would be hard to use* The madlad: *made an all defender Ops (almost) run of the stage*
Somehow I got through this nonsense without realizing that Kristen's block count and damage reduction increased with the number of active star rings. After bashing my head against the Damazti Cluster for so long, I just kind of assumed that her being extremely tanky and unblockable was par for the course in modern Arknights Boss Design.
I still can felt that Vernal wind ex 8 where Kyo has to used blue woman even so!!! He even dare say if you get 4 defender in a row is a reset.... You know how much cost is😢
this was nice to see after failing this stage like 30 times trying to brute force aak+carnelian and constantly dying to the stupid lancer-car at the end
@@MindayKalana i sincerely thought that it would just multiply up past 99 cost and lock me from ever deploying them. Which is why i didn't even try to bring Mudrock in the first place. The more you know!
Nothing personal but after struggling with this stage for hours, because of the challenge, and then seeing this video I got one sentence for you. "F**k you, have a nice day 👍"
The challenge mode didn't really affect me since I could just run the same strategy anyways since Myrtle, Zima, and Bagpipe just printed enough dp even with the cost increase. I am still in disbelief that this guy kept on with defenderknights despite the limitation. Have to respect that imo.
The balls can despawn if they're not interacted with (or they just despawn anyways?) after a large amount of time has past. You can kind of see this with the "infinite" duration skills like Thorns s3 on Annihilation stages. The orange bar ends up ticking down to like halfway or somewhere around there. Seems like Arknights has an internal cap / limit on how long stages should last so things get wonky when you've stalled on stages long enough.

HG wants nothing "blocking" Kristen from her ambition
And yet my strategy is consist on blocking her with saria, ironic
Ling’s dragon: hold my beer
The strategy is amazing, but Saria soloing Kristen for a canonical ending is just the cherry on top
“Defender cost up”
The three most devastating words for this account
ngl the moment where Penance was placed down was kind of emotional.
ah yes the great healing defender, Myrtle, who makes up for her lower-than-average DEF with a passive regen and a heal skill

That moment when deploying noir corne cost the same as a normal mudrock
Saria soloing Kristen is not what I expected. Very impressive
Let me solo her
Born to block 3 enemies, forced to regenerate DP.
Bring only one defender was already tough.. And this guy bring full of defender+2 vanguard on his squad.. Youre amazing dude..
Myrtle and Fang are honorary defenders :)
That one Myrtle doujin is canon😮
What a real lore accurate clear by telling Kristen to sleep by bringing Blemishine!!
Bro put her to sleep 💀
The high DP cost is just to sponsor the goddamn Lone Trail project on god 💀💀💀
61/59 + saria holding off kristen is awesome
You can tell this man is a chad because the limit of enemies is 59 but this chad made it 61

dp cost plus, block reduce ,tittle ban are the worst challenge condition ngl
Operator atk down is also worse (CW EX7 CM)
Hp reduce also sucks
At this point, might as well say every CM conditions are the worst
I still can felt that Vernal wind ex 8 where Kyo has to used blue woman even so!!! He even dare say if you get 4 defender in a row is a reset....
You know how much cost is😢
Nah, block reduction is cool
You're soo OP with all of your defender make HG put that condition on that challenge mode.
"My wish is true and noble, Saria... dont stop me now."
- Kristen Wright
*"I wont.. cant say the same thing about them."*
"I won't stop you... but they will"
HG is watching this,
next challenge, Defender ATK -75%
AU where Saria stopped Kristen from drifting to space
Good to see people still using yugioh 5ds music, that series kicks ass
all i have to say is your music choice never dissapoints
mfin jack atlas battle theme holy shit and then mmbn music
Watch this blow up like what Near Light did!
I’m callin it!
Kristen: "Saria, let me in! Let me iinnn!!!" (probably)
bro make kristen have 2 balls
Lowlight giggling and kicking his feet and saying "mad, Tums?" after designing this CM
This guy took it personally
This is where Mumu comes in clutch lol
Have her clone a defender with 4 block count at 0 DP cost xD
But anyways, insane play as always ^^
you can destroy those balls?!
i guess its a bug
if the balls stay for long enough, it just despawns
It's a feature surely
A defender ban would be more devastating than a triple cost defender🤣
Pre-amnesia doktah fr
Also its magical to see Saria solo the boss in this one
You happy, HG? Tums whipped out myrtle
Incredible work! Noir at the end screen where he deserves to be ! o7
Cherry on top is the lore accurate Saria-Kristen fight lmao
What an absolute legend.
Woow niceeee 💞💞💞💞💞💞✨✨✨
Love the Jack Atlas theme 🔥
I love how this is a fight against a bug as well

Myrtle and Fang just sitting in the timeout corner lol
“HIGH VALUE DECK”
Battle network 4, perfect pick
me : suffering from this stage
ppl: oh well
Myrtle working to the best of her ability there
When you think about it, you're technically getting a discount for ops like Penance and Mudrock.
I mean, Penance's cost didn't even go up on redeployment! What a bargain!
2 balls is gone, and its not mine
People, where are 2 balls?
imagine if there were no cost cap :')
Wait, this entire time there was a cost cap?! D:
@@selensewarthey're capped at 99 dp cost, because you're also capped at 99 dp stored

Myrtle the ultimate Defender. 😎👍
dont know if this run is a testament to myrtle being myrtle or you being painfully hardheaded
ฉันมองเห็นความเป็นไปได้ เมื่อคุณวาง Horn 😊
Soooooo..... Lore ending I see nice clear with alldat high dp cost
Because
jokes aside this level is savage
WHAT THE HELL MAN
FIRST I'M HEARING ARK MUSIC IN MD VIDS
AND NOW IT'S VICE VERSA
Im so dumb for not realizing i could use Penance like that to charge her skill using those orb thingys
Hoshi s2 also works. albeit slower.
Amazing clear! Props to you!
Wait, we can destroy the balls? I finished the event without knowing that
*FULL DP STANDO POWAHGHH!!!*
They broke him
HG broke him
They made him use vanguards
also tf even is the ball despawn bug that’s goofy lmao
We need DP count increase more than 99 and DP cost challenge exceed 100 too, maybe DP tag x4 cost in the future 😅
NO WE DON'T
woah woah... calm down, Satan.
Do not let him cook. Please.
I mean, DH-EX-4 already has 4x Defender cost and DP Down 4 is just Annihilation.
Who's we ?
A have a question for a God... WHYYYYY
This was awesomeeee

How did you get rid of the Planetary Balls completely off the map to prevent Kirsten from spawning more Celestial Balls in phase 1?
Jack atlas？？？？
wheres mudmud
this clear made me remember my cat
cat: Boss, where did my balls go?
me: To space my dude...
I haven't got it... where did 2 balls on the right side disappeared in the end?
The max enemies are 59 but how did you killed them in 61?? Bug?
