- Shoutout to Lucidus for the fights, this was a fun matchup against a skilled opponent. Dude pulls off the most insane combo I've ever seen at the start, and has a lot of really clean catches and combos. I noticed that he uses cspear a lot while i'm in my long SA animations to keep the movement speed debuff on me which definitely hurts. I'm able to keep up though, and despite a pretty big gear advantage on my end the fight feels really good.
Bonus: I develop a reset combo at 18:12 using divine slam into JoL 1 and 2, with just counter to confirm the reset into my float combo. Unfortunately all my kd's were on cooldown but the bound on spear was enough to finish my opponent. Definitely a nice addition to the succ arsenal.
Reset combo clip: • Succ Valk: reset combo
Notes on the matchup: besides the obvious disadvantage in movement, I'm realizing that having only one spear really hurts our ability to apply move speed debuffs on the opponent. some succ valks will use spear for cc attempts, but I prefer to save it for combos so I miss out on a really nice debuff skill. and since prime just counter is garbage, i really don't have any other way to apply movespeed debuffs which is huge.

Nice video! If you're looking for a reset combo, you should look to add Shining JOL or Divine JOL from hotbar (third rabam) in your combo. GL o7
Thanks, I haven't figured out how the 3rd rabams fit into the succ kit so I'll def try these out!
@@pharmachillist I saw LarryFish also recommend just counter for re-cc combo in one of his training sessions. You have to time it right when opponent is standing up for it to work, which has some risk to it! But the 3rd rabam sounds interesting! Goodluck Pharma looking forward to more fights in future.
Yeah, i use absolute just counter for the initial reset while they're getting up, it's nice bc each hit can cc. i'm def gonna experiment w the 3rd rabams a bit and see what i can cook up, thanks!
BTW, using stiffness (just counter) is a nice way of resetting the combo. I just do my initial combo, then wait for them to stand up and them spam stiffness (most succ valks would do JoL and hope for downsmash for reset, but in many cases it will fail, and the opponent just gets up and runs away). I can then do the second part of the combo.
Nice video! Question: Does it really make a difference if you use ignore KD resist crystals or not? I see you have 2-3 of those in your crystal presets?
Thanks! Yeah that's a good question, I wanna say it's pretty impactful but I may be overdoing it a bit. A typical DR build should have around 61% all resists, and so with my crystal setup I have 44% ignore grap res and 51% ignore kd res. I don't mind missing a grab here and there but I wanna make sure I can hit my kd re-cc to get a full combo. And with this setup the kd almost never gets resisted, so usually all I need to re-cc is sharp light and I can save the magnus skill for damage and keep shining dash for catch attempts. I might think about dropping to 44% ignore kd res and swap in a red fang for more DR, but at least for 1v1s and smaller fights I like to have the ignore res
@@pharmachillist Thanks, I run only 34% ignore KD/grab resist. I don't have problems with KDs, but my grabs sometimes fail (either because of bad Valk grab or resist). I might add a grab resist. For 1v1s more ignore resist makes sense, but I play mostly team fights so I just play without ignore resist crystals and use DR crystals instead (some classes and builds can inflict massive damage, so I go full DR in teamfights).
