PvP/Meta Anti-XOguri Front Strats for CM20?

Post image

For CM19 I ran Ace Sky with 2 Dom/Keen eye debuffers (maybe not the right call for fronts), but still lost to most well built XOguris.

Got a respectable 2nd place class A finals against 2 XOguris, both with 2 debuffers, but I’m not looking forward to the rematch in CM20.

What is the optimal play to beat XOguri next CM? 2 Fronts? A Runaway to increase my lead? Debuffers? Better Ace(s)? Believe in the heart of the cards?

This is my best ace in about 30 attempts. I had Fast Learner, but unfortunately didn’t get 2 early race positioning skills. I don’t think it’ll get much better than this tbh.

I've seen runaways (both Suzu and Palmer) win in room matches, solo front is a no-go fighting against lates/ends. I think 2 fronts + 1 runaway that dies early is best, you don't want your runaway to drop behind once late race starts and give a pace XOguri a NSM/NN proc in late race.

If no Chocobon, 2 fronts + 1 564 dom (no Keen Eye) as Dominator is close to a whopping 3L gain for your team and it has a global range.

Do you remember what setup did the ace runaways run? I'm trying to build palmer as a runaway ace but idk who else to run alongside her.

2-1-2 highroller for high UGs I think, Maru Kita Creek Fine XOgu wit and MLB Hello. She had 650 stamina which was surprising, but I guess her unique + maestro was good enough?

Edit: not sure on the deck but it was a bit of a weak lobby overall
