I swear to God, You came in clutch because just recently I started to think to properly learn PvP (since I never give a damn about it) Keep up the good work and video, I really do appreciate your help!
And here I hope I can manage to reach rank 900 since I can safely buy AP without worrying of my tokens going out if BA were to introduce new student in the shop. Hoping I could reach my target in the first tommorow and work my ranks up until the limits.
I hope next season'bracket is better for me. I started playing 1 month before Blufes so I didn't roll for S.Shiroko because I wanted to do 400 rolls on Fest. When I was lv 50 Everyone was >lv 80 already. 90% of the player base below 1k in my bracket use S.Shiroko playing a different game. NY.Haruna killing my whole team in less than 5s. Absolute Misery.
@@RSRainstorm Nope. Best season rank is 270 thanks to a really really lucky streak. Usually I'm between 600-1000 rank and using my tickets to get below 500 to cash out.
Your first season after you start is rough since you probably don't have too many students built for flexibility in countering certain students and comps. I don't know how next season will be but usually I either pray NY. Mutsuki's ex gets off before NY. Haruna or sometimes I will throw Megu in the same lane if she is in D3/D4 and hope Megu doesn't get S. Shiroko'd before downing NY. Haruna. You can try a Red AOE dps in a special slot like Nagisa or Minori but usually when I have tried this I have trouble downing the tanks.
I use the same position for attack n def, still no Iori or Mika, I use two tanks to make sure I survive, but RNG likes to throw Mika n Iori on me to kill my tanks alongside the strikers, damage on health is way too much for my teams, not to mention the UE guys rolling over my f2p teams
How do you deal with evasion? Oftentimes, the attacks of my 5* Iori and Minori get dodged by tanks and Mika. I do have a Shun but she's only 3* and she often gets killed before dealing enough damage. Meanwhile, my 5* Yuuka, Tsubaki and Atsuko would get one-shot by those same players' Iori. How important is UE level? And which characters take eleph priority?
3 star T.Yuuka is fine actually. Buying it just make her tankier for raids in the future and help her survive longer against NY.Haruna if she targets Yuuka.
I don't keep track of that, maybe next time. I used it in the early month of the season, then my bracket know how to counter it, so I switch to another one.
I just realised that I never saw the current pvp terrain in-game, I only copied your formations with NY Haruna once season changed and never touched anything again, always skip battles of course. And still using all 5 chances per day is enough for me to be constantly in top 100. So are there relatively universal formations for atk and def I could use?
You need to be in top 20 I think to be able to remember someone's defense, because there are fewer players there. If you're going against a team blind, just don't put Iori at A1 if you see a D1 Marina defense.
@@RSRainstorm I see. So it's only worth refreshing if you also get the first time rewards along with the season reward like what I did this season. I'll take my time climbing the ranks next season then. XD
My Goal of getting Top 1st Trophy & daily Top 20 pyroxenes in current 5th Season is all ruined by S.Shiroko & worse part I don't have her... now I even having hard to stay in 200. Can you suggest a good replacement that can cut the cost of all Students same as S.Shiroko?
@@TheSecondKoan Ik I've been using her this whole time but she can't defeat that cost cutting of S.Shiroko with her fast cost regen. Imagine you're waiting for your one Student to use her EX meanwhile your opponent's 3 Students already used their EX skills. well that's how it feels like. & worse when they've NY.Haruna with them..
@@RSRainstorm I didnt see from where she came, just saw how Mika smashed my Tsubaki out of nowere after S. Hanako insta killed my Saori before she even do anything. She literally did 0 damage in that match.
@@041able Well for that, you'll need to record the run to see what went wrong, until you get used to it. After that you can spot what went wrong in a pvp in real time easier.
- For defense S.Hanako/ Nutsuki/ Iori depending on your brackets + Shun + 2 tanks. You can use NY.Haruna to suprise others as well. - For offense it depends on what your opponent is running.
@@billionaeris1183 Any dps can replace Shun, you just can't get your skills up as fast. For tanks we have Marina, Atsuko, Yuuka or Tsubaki if you don't have many gacha tanks.
junko has immortality that is even longer than marina, but her base hp and evasion stats are lower, so she is more likely to get bursted down on top of that her attack speed is slower and her immortality has a noticable activation delay, making her survivability worse at least her ex is damn powerful - if her ex skill lands 2 out of 4 hits (not counting echo hits from sub skill), it will shut yuuka or atsuko down, along with a backline without regard to armor type there still are better options, just because junko will get nuked by nyharuna and nagisa
@@smellslikeanvil9257 there's a Junko enthusiast on youtube and I tried to copy it but nah almost all his units are UE50 that are backing Junko so I just use her occasionally. 😅
Junko has high damage, quite a lot of dodge, and persistence. So, after a successful battle, she's often the best/second best damager on my team with 90k+ damage consistently. It feels great to watch her EX run right up to Iroha's tank and then...BOOM. Also, sometimes all you need to end a match is about 24 more seconds of dakka. I actually use her as an off-tank with a 50% success because you kinda need her to have low hp to get the best results. So she has to be in front to soak some damage. That's where you find her first problem...she has to survive long enough to proc persistence. The only problem is, Shun is her hard counter. One snipe that actually hits, and she goes down. Then you get to the second problem...this season had a freaking high number of dodge tanks in the top 100. Marina, Yuuka, Tsubaki, Atsuko... Junko's accuracy is above machine gunners, but it's definitely too low to hit the dodge tanks. Like 30% - 40% accuracy? She needs to be paired with S. Mashiro to drop the dodge tank's evasion enough to up her hit chance to something more reliable. S. Mashiro is a great Tsubaki ender. But misses Marina too frequently. And Yuuka is heavy armor so no chance of a OHKO so need Junko to assist. The big problem is that if you choose S. Mashiro...you lose out on a support AOE like Iroha or Nagisa. So if they knock out your striker AOE early, you're often left with no AOE to finish their backline. Good luck having your tank take out their team. Tldr; Junko can clean up if she survives. You have the best chance of winning against a team with Iroha support (blue tank). You'll have a horrible time against Nagisa support (red artillery). You'll have a strangely fun time against S. Ayane (yellow helicopter). As said before, Junko needs to be in the front to take advantage of her skills. (More damage with lower hp + Temporary invulnerability at less than 20% hp) Except that's why she goes down so quickly. A team that is built around her will require certain specialties and will expose some critical weaknesses. - As I said earlier, Shun is her counter. And every team runs Shun so you're crossing your finger and hoping she's in another lane or Junko dodges like 3 attacks. That's about how long before AOE finally starts going off and wipes out someone's back line. Hopefully not yours. - Beware of Nutsuki. For some weird reason, those rockets can OHKO her on field maps. It might be much better in Indoors where Nutsuki has no terrain advantage. - She's dangerous to Iori. That interval between Iori shots is long enough for her to proc her temporary immortality. And because she's red light armor, Iori's yellow penetrating attack isn't effective against her. - Dodge tanks are annoying. She's best against Yuuka though due to type compatibility. Doesn't solve the Marina problem though. Her EX has two disadvantages. It doesn't go very far. And because it's a line, it can miss the important targets depending on where their tank is positioned. It'll hit the tank, but can whiff the backline if the resulting line is too high or too low. It's too late for me, but I actually recommend not upping her hp with gear and stuff if possible. She'd proc her basic with a tap from a stray shot then. Otherwise if she's beefy, she'll either take a strong hit, or several moderate hits, and collapse before having a chance to proc the temporary immortality. Then again, you do need extra health or a stray mortar from Hibiki or rocket from Iroha is enough to OHKO her. So YMMV. If you're asking my placement, I sit in the 100 - 20 range. I did reach up to 4th. But I have NY Haruna and Shun. So I had a solid team already, Junko was there to help, not to carry.

You mentioned buying T.Yuuka elephs. Why? I have a 5 star T.Yuuka, so I was wondering if perhaps I need to start buying them again.
3 star T.Yuuka is fine actually. Buying it just make her tankier for raids in the future and help her survive longer against NY.Haruna if she targets Yuuka.
that makes your job easier tbh, make her ue40 because her shield will get fatter, you'll have a comfier raid too when you need her

@@nousagi5837 It doesn't work against good single target dps like Iori btw, while I haven't tested it against S.Hanako.
Nice to see all these counters, but how do I guess them when only 1 student is being shown?
You need to be in top 20 I think to be able to remember someone's defense, because there are fewer players there. If you're going against a team blind, just don't put Iori at A1 if you see a D1 Marina defense.
Keep screenshots of the players you attack, you'll have a better chance of winning the second time around.
I used to document all the names of players i fight with their names and students listed + a screenshot and put them all on a discord channel
Does the first time rewards for climbing the ranks apply only once per account or per season? I was thinking about refreshing that's why.
rewards for season resets every season
How good the rewards are in pvp?
7000 pyroxenes for first time clear, and 30 pyroxenes daily if you are in top 100. The pvp coins can be used to buy AP from the shop.
@@RSRainstorm only 30 for daily? No additional just like in raid the higher your rank gained?
@@peaveejay2700 Well it's 45 if you get top 1.
Just wanna ask. Is it still worth to rush to rank 1 using pyro refresh at the start of the season if you already got the first time rewards?
Uh no, not worth it, you spend more pyroxenes trying to refresh actually. Assuming you can reach top 10? by the time the seasons end.
@@RSRainstorm I see. So it's only worth refreshing if you also get the first time rewards along with the season reward like what I did this season. I'll take my time climbing the ranks next season then. XD
My ue50 Minori is finally going to see some use!?
She's ok on defense if you don't have Marina.
What do you run for 4 tanks? I'm thinking Yuuka, Atsuko, Marina, SMiyako. No idea about special tho
S.Shiroko + S.Mash or replace S.Mash with Iroha if you can't take out enemy's backline students.
@@RSRainstorm any other alternative for smash? i don't have her
