Alright guys, in this thread I’ll be doing something a bit different: posting (possible) counter strategies to popular lineups, including my own for good sport
Bc I’m lazy and it’s late, I’ll just start with arguably the most important part of a lineup, the starting three arks.
Opponent’s Arks … Your Arks
Cyberwyrm … Destructor
Vortexor … Metallodius
Triphoon … Vortexor
Anything metal … Scorpionix
Anything else … Golgemios
Anything else … Vegitiger/Raioh
Gremknight/Stunner/Heavy Hitter… Cyber
Shadowstalker/Stunner… Vortexor
Stunner …Mechadino (faster than chopper)
Golgemios …Kill it with fire B)
Gigarock … or
Scorpionix/Vegitiger …Cyber/Vortex/Triphoon and use stasis then banish
That should cover the majority of popular starters and their variations.
Have a team that annoys you? Questions are encouraged; advice will be given by all
dont forget to add sapherion for cyber triph vortexor. sapherion covers stego, earth trios, and wind trios
and sapherion isnt counterable, unless of course, you start with a water trio which is pretty weak in the beginning. it can basically counter anything as long as one air, earth, or fire ark is out.
here are some combos that you could add counter for
ss minespider
shadowstalker stunner terrorfish mossgolem
cyber kami terrorfish
stego charc
any of the armys (easy, just destroy each water you see before the army one comes out.
Just know on Charca/Stego a Chopperbug can annoy them badly, Terrorfish dislikes Angeleon because of Illuminate, Just keep banishing or knocking back the ones you don’t like, Army teams banish/Scramble to counter or Frillzeon and Cryowyrm are weak against Destructor
A strategy I use is also sorta good but easy to counter: Halopard/Tremorback/Don Penguini and before my iPod got stolen it hadn’t lost to much, including OMs, simply because no one worries about Halopard and everyone attempts to take out my attackers first.
Shadowstalker would stun with chopper. After you kill it, (you have to unless you have knockback which i would’ve killed before terror or chopper came out), you’re stunned and terror comes out. Terror uses endbringer, my other ark sacrifices itself, Mossgolem comes in an siesta.
Endbringer didn’t kill all monster, every stun monster won’t be killed by this attack (so raioh/chopper/minespider/gremknight…) but SS/ Moss /terror seems to be a badass strategy !
