  • Some of these sequences could use fine-tuning, but I really gotta move onto other things. So, Eusine. I'm a Johto boi so this was a very easy pull for me. Is Eusine worth it? Well, no. Back on my assessment I told you he is weaker than SS Lysandre, but under that scope no Water-type gacha is worth pulling. It's like asking if SS Steven, SS Lusamine, SS Lana, etc. are worth pulling... well, no, because everyone has access to 6*EX Giovanni. Water-types have Cyrus, and 6*EX Siebold/Barry if you want to be more efficient.
    Eusine draws many parallels to SS Lysandre. His ceiling doesn't represent the epitome of Water-type damage, which makes him a hard sell. All things considered, I think Eusine is a fine unit with unique niches, even beyond Extend Range, Flinch, Trap and Blizzard. Eusine is all about utility: he is entirely self-sufficient, his Trainer Move can ramp, and he's got a whole host of gauge generation options. That's the angle we have to tackle. Eusine's strengths are a lot more pronounced in Gauntlet, where SS Lysandre is hopeless to perform solos for example.
    3/5 Eusine's greatest limit is the lack of Attack Trap 4. 5/5 also has Disarm 9, which is really nice for advanced gameplay like off-region Extreme Battles. I don't have the guts to invest so many candies into Eusine, so we'll roll with 3/5.
    [0:00] - Chase the meta? Or your favs?
    [0:57] - Water Peepee
    Eusine excels at eviscerating sidemons because B Surf has Extend Range. Extend Range units are remarkable peepee abusers because you get a three for one deal by enhancing them. That also means Extend Range Strikers get better value from 6*EX Support buffs, because their nuke damage gets diluted into their moves.
    This sequence was difficult. One of Eusine's flaws is that all his actions have gauge contention. That can be solved with Entry Freebie, but its location is inconvenient. I had a really hard time maximizing peepee within a ramp as well. Like, the tools are there: HS1 Raihan + a couple Propulsions would do the trick. In the end, and against every fiber of my being, I skipped the ramp to spread Trap evenly for efficient SE Next procs.
    [3:15] - SS Hau stacking
    SS Kris is more efficient than SS Mina for Eusine due to Johto Flag Bearer and Water Theme Skills. Eusine can execute a ramp with HS1 SS Hau. While Eusine can ramp, he is typically forced into Turn 3 clears because B Surf unlocks by Turn 2. That's why I don't think he wants the HS1 lucky skill.
    [5:09] - Blizzard Peepee
    I was disappointed with Eusine's Blizzard. Under optimal circumstances it threads BP Candice's output. A nice thing about Blizzard is that it can engage overdrive a turn earlier than B Surf. I figured this would be a good opportunity to show Eusine's synergy with SS Ethan: SS Ethan spreads AoE Trap and bears Johto Spirit, making them a natural pairing. SS Ethan has a 50% chance of ramping with his Trainer Move, so I ended up giving him HS1 to fish for a ramp with Eusine's Propulsion.
    [6:48] - Basic Team
    Eusine is self-sufficient, so he can afford any Rain setter. Holy shit Refreshing Rain 1 Viola real!!! This application is typically redundant because Viola is a pure tank, so you get more value from Refreshing Rain 1 Skyla, but Viola has the unique attribute of activating Trap and Buff for Eusine.
    [8:56] - DPS Focus
    Nuking with Extend Range Strikers is kinda pointless most of the time. You can do something else with your sync and get proportionate value out of the spread damage. Eusine in particular has a TON of utility tiles, amongst which are Atmospheric Acceleration and Gauge Acceleration on kill to smooth out rotations. This team can off-type by the way: • don't tread on the snek
    [10:51] - Cheap Ice
    Eusine can afford defensive Supports. Eusine's Blizzard modes don't need Hail to fix Blizzard's Accuracy because he has innate Piercing Gaze, however any weather benefits his Weathered Warrior 3. I went with OG Candice as a self-sufficient nuke compliment.
    [13:24] - Triple Strike
    Okay, hear me out. This was going to be a standard frogs showcase, but eventually it hit me that I didn't have to slot Champion Calem. Serena and Eusine are self-sufficient, and Serena is a good enough enhancer in lieu of the options Calem has to occupy. I used the third slot to amp offense with a self-sufficient Striker instead. A good enhancing Support yields a more structurally sound composition, but there are enough Water-types with broken Trainer Moves that a Triple Strike playstyle is possible now. Eusine is very handy for these structures because he generates a crapload of gauge.
    [15:34] - More Triple Strike
    Similar principle. Archie compresses Rain so he optimizes the team's output. HS1 Dojo Gloria full ramps by herself, which opened Eusine's energy for things like Soften Up 1.

    Is the upcoming SS Lysandre and Dojo Gloria banner worth pulling for? I do have water types fairly covered with most of the top choices you can think of

    • @Zinfogel
      @Zinfogel  Před rokem

      Both are broken, but I wouldn't bother until we have a better understanding of the new game mode

    correction: b surf is aoe without split damage. it does not have extend range- that is a passive skill.

    • @Zinfogel
      @Zinfogel  Před rokem +1

      It's a pedantic distinction - B Psycho Cut also has the same flag. All AoE moves that don't incur the AoE damage penalty are referred to use "Extend Range" because the passive is integrated in the move, much like how Sunsteel Strike and Moongeist Beam have "Piercing Blows" without the user having the actual passive.

    Crazy how someone can have both the best and worst sync move animation in the game.
    Well, not "worst". It's just brilliant, but lazy.

      I understood that reference.
      Impressive, your parents must be very proud.
