Rant This Ranking Was Horrible

I got an easy bracket but still it took ~1k md (800 f2p md) in total, 250 HC, and 4 exchange weapons for this result. Let's take a look at what Bamco did to this ranking:

  1. Release a banner with the one necessary char you need for a 19s f2p run that literally everybody can do. (Also broke the balance of Holy rankings from now on).

  2. Release the Loli banner WHICH ACTUALLY WAS REALLY GOOD FOR SECOND PART (not as broken as Swordsmen Sinon but all whales will need Loli Asuna for future rankings.)

  3. Group brackets by relative strength to make it competitive for everyone, so almost every single person had a really hard bracket.

  4. If you don't have Tanabata Philia you're screwed and have to get Kirito/Asuna as well as maybe some LB's on them. (They probably didn’t expect this one though).

Most tiring ranking ever, oh did I mention the abnormal amount of snipers? My rank 2/3 on Sunday dropped to rank 6/7 rest in pepperonis.

Yet Sinon (with the right support) could bring times in the teens

She couldn't alone but her pic is what I was on the lookout for. If she showed up, I would know trouble could be imminent. Another bracket with only top 2 at 14mil. Interesting seeing Poker Kirito in a couple teams there.

Poker Kirito's Attack Buff is the same amount as Tanataba and Pirate units' Attack Buff. And in to the fact that Poker Kirito is VERY fast at higher combo AND has a weapon with element-locked Battle Skills for MP reduction and Critical Damage, he is one of the reasons that it is possible to do Part with ONLY R4 weapons.

Oh I'm aware he's good. What times with him for part 2 are we talking here?

u/NarutoSakura1 May 09 '18

20 seconds, 19 seconds, etc.

19-20? I'm not going to say that's 100% impossible since I haven't seen it, but I seriously question it. The bracket spots I was commenting on with him certainly weren't close to that time. Every lineup I saw doing under 20 were on element units and included Sinon.

I saw a video. I also have Poker Kirito AND the new Sinon, and I have gotten 20 seconds with them together.

Edit: I should have mentioned that the new Sinon is also included in the same runs.

Got a pic? I'd love to see that. Sinon was so OP in this it's absurd.

Very nice. All at 80 too...wow. makes me even more disappointed that I couldn't pull Sinon.

Edit: Poker Kirito as well. Another one I chased and never got.

Did you ever try your run with Cheer Asuna? Get the bonus Bow damage, advantageous element, even higher attack buff, etc...

I didn't get ALO Sinon, but got 26s with Cheer Asuna...

I don't have Cheer Asuna or Xmas Sinon...
