Speaker A
work best on Chou. In this current game, Chou's banned along with Lunox and some, you know, other overpowered commanders. So, we're playing it on Luo Yi.
Speaker A
The point of this build is to combine the Star Bell Fanatic with the Commander item. So, it works on Chou, works on Ruby, Luo Yi.
Speaker A
I've seen it on Karina. Although it's not the best, but it does work on her.
Speaker A
So, there's a lot of options for you. And yeah, I hope you guys enjoy the video, and live commentary will start in just a moment. Much love.
Speaker A
Alucard power is nice. Penny, but I'll take this. I'm going to, I'm going to do this. I'm going to take Purify.
Speaker A
Okay. So, if you noticed round one, we got a Foveus, we insta put him in the orb, insta put it on him.
Speaker A
That is because for Luo Yi orb, you get a random hero if you have a Scavenger emblem, or you get a random hero every two turns.
Speaker A
So here we got a random hero, it was the Tigreal that was right here.
Speaker A
Perfect. I'm going to sell him to hit 20. And then, I'm actually going to move, now that we hit it, we're just going to put this on Hilda.
Speaker A
All right. Looks like Guinevere is planning on doing necromancer plus scavenger, which is good for us because we are going to, you know, win win streak against her. Uh, the problem I see in this game. Okay, so there's another
Speaker A
Guinevere and there's another Nana. So, in theory that is, you know, three very winnable rounds.
Speaker A
I shall rise above all rivals. Put in a random monster. I'm going to look for scavenger so I can have scavenger on the board and in the orb. Uh, but anyway, we should win against Nanas, we should win against the
Speaker A
Guineveres. It's the Alices [music] and the Kagura that I'm worried about. Although early, um, we should be okay.
Speaker A
It's when they, you know, get their first Saber, first Karina, they do the bruiser, you know, when they get their first Aldous, or first Kido.
Speaker A
They could high roll Alice. There's a couple builds with Kaishin high roll. Uh, but let's see what he grabbed for card.
Speaker A
Okay, so he could do Kaishin. [music] If you take Alice power, usually you're going to low roll.
Speaker A
Um, but with Kagura power, you could really do low roll or high roll and be very effective. So, he has a lot of options.
Speaker A
As for the item, let's just take an attack item. What can we do to make this Hilda stronger? Guess add just [music] a random Astra.
Speaker A
Perfect. There is the Angela. We can put her in. Okay, we're looking for Starbell here.
Speaker A
Honestly, at this point, I'm going to double CC here. Thank you, Starbell. We're going to put the fan stick on Hilda for now.
Speaker A
Don't need these extra Hildas. She's going to be two star for the rest of the game.
Speaker A
So, right now it's 76. If it was on a one star Hilda, it'd be lower.
Speaker A
And then, you know, without this item, it'd be lower. Just keep in mind this number. Right now, it's 76, which means it's giving 76 attack to CC at the start of the round.
Speaker A
And we want to see how high we can get this. [snorts] All right, so this was a single scav, which means the next scav will be a double scav. What I mean by double scav is I mean that the scav in the orb,
Speaker A
which is every two rounds, is going to line [music] up with the scav and my normal scav, which is every one turn. So, what we're going to do is we're going to lock the shop with these guys and get them both. So, we'll get
Speaker A
seven gold in one turn by getting this scav and the two scav at the same time.
Speaker A
[snorts] I do see a purple card is coming up here. Our goal for the purple card is anything economy. If we're being honest, we want to hit level nine as SOON AS POSSIBLE.
Speaker A
I'M GOING TO STOP THIS GUY'S WIN STREAK, WHICH IS NICE. He's on power. That's good for us.
Speaker A
Well, I guess it depends. Let's see what he gets from. All right. And as you see, we got both Franco and Eudora.
Speaker A
And they're both going to be sold right away so. Apex weapons, honestly, this build needs a lot of items because eventually we're going to have items on a Lancelot inside the orb. And we're going to have, you know, we want full
Speaker A
items for our Gusion or Zilong or Badang or Fanny. So, we need every single item that we can find. Let's just look.
Speaker A
We'll go Apex weapons here. We'll level up to seven at the end of the turn.
Speaker A
All right. Be happy. Let's get anti-heal just because there is a Kagura in the game.
Speaker A
So, it'll be very beneficial for us. All right. So, it's going to be a double again.
Speaker A
Actually, that was a single. So, yeah, this one's going to be a double. So, now we're going to lock shop again.
Speaker A
So, we're going to get Nana. We're going to get a Hilda. Both will be sold immediately.
Speaker A
And then we'll do master for Hilda here and weapon master. Give everyone 5% life steal.
Speaker A
Let's get rid of this guy and this guy. Let's sell them. Let's. All right. So, this guy is going Kaison.
Speaker A
He has scout, but he does not have echo master. So, if he had echo master, I mean, he wouldn't be 100 HP if he had echo master.
Speaker A
But, he would have, you know, one star Gatot Moskov or X.Borg right now. And he does not have that one, so I'm going to level up to eight, by the way.
Speaker A
We get both. Perfect. We just sell them. Let's in this. Our winter [music] crown is always good.
Speaker A
Ancient wrath, holy crystal, feline blade. Honestly, I like all of these items. I think ancient wrath for the eventual low beta.
Speaker A
We will get enough items for the rest of our team eventually so. And we're actually leveling at a really good pace. We have win streak. We're getting three gold per turn.
Speaker A
We sold our excess focus. And we also have two scav and scav an orb.
Speaker A
So, we're actually at a very, very respectable pace for leveling here. Like we're even with the nanas farming echo manser scav.
Speaker A
This guy's gotten 30 gold from taking damage so. Oh, okay. So, let's get greedy here.
Speaker A
Let's put in three scav. I am not going to lock shop because I think [music] I would. So, the max gold we'd get for a double here is, you know, four, two and two.
Speaker A
I think we could get lucky and get more than that, but I guess we'll see if it pays off in the next turn.
Speaker A
Here's Saber Karina. Makes sense. He's going to be low rolling those guys. He also farms echo manser though, so.
Speaker A
[groaning] I think that's good for us. All. All let's see. Four gold. Let's see if we can get more than. Oh, I guess we'll see after the pit box.
Speaker A
Okay, best thing here would be a winter crown. Looks like someone left the game.
Speaker A
Seven of us. Winter crown taken. Let's take a rapid skill cast. That'll be good for Gusion later.
Speaker A
I'll make this place my palace. I think we got the Lylia and the Martis, I believe.
Speaker A
Uh, that could be wrong. But it looks like it was four golds so it ended up being about the same.
Speaker A
Let's let it go again. And we're. Again, we have three scav right now. We have win streak.
Speaker A
We're on our way to level nine. I want to see what is this Gwen doing. Okay, so him and the Nana [music] are both farming Echo manser scav.
Speaker A
So they'll be nine very, very soon. Oh, and then this guy's also farming Echo manser scav.
Speaker A
Okay, so there's three people in the lobby going Echo manser scav. Which might explain our sustain. I mean, we're going to lose now.
Speaker A
Usually on Lylia I'm not as high in HP, so I will take it. Again this build works best, I would say, on Chou.
Speaker A
Because you have the Chou item is a bit better. And he is stronger. I'm going to do a double lock here.
Speaker A
I'll get Zilong and Lancelot. Lancelot will eventually be the [music] guy in the orb.
Speaker A
So we definitely need him and then Zilong. I think we're going to go the Zilong Dragon Caller version of the. That's the one that's most popular right now.
Speaker A
The Melissa one is also good. So, I guess it just depends if we get, you know, Badang or Melissa [music] first. We can go either one if we're being honest.
Speaker A
I just want to check the. So, his is expert and what his name is.
Speaker A
Moskov. So, this guy has to go Dauntless MM or Defender MM. One of your has more options.
Speaker A
We
Speaker A
Trust funds. If we're being a 100% honest, I think trust fund would be the way to go.
Speaker A
Peerless Valor. Pretty good. Very seal good. I'm going to gamble on this though. This is either going to be 12 gold or, you know, if we get a two-star Gusion or Lolita or Zilong, that'd be awesome.
Speaker A
All right, two-star sword. We're just going to get rid of him. As for the items, grab four axes. This is from leveling to nine with Apex.
Speaker A
And a little crystal. It's a little long explanation. It's a high loss. It's roll. Okay, Badang. Okay, let's get rid of Scathach here.
Speaker A
Let's put in Badang. I'm going to get Scathach out of the water. Put Lancelot on Badang with the Kayson item. With this, I no longer require the services of Hilda.
Speaker A
And then I need Veda. Quickly try and find some two stars. That's why two star one.
Speaker A
Then these items are good. He was still rolling, so that's good. We're both in our transition phase, except I'm full strength right now.
Speaker A
He's still finding his stuff. I was lucky enough to find my people very fast so get rid of this guy. Don't need him.
Speaker A
Don't need him. Need either of these guys. Okay, we'll go the bruiser or not the bruiser. We'll go the dragon caller version of the build just because I have Actually, there's another person buying Zilongs. Who is it?
Speaker A
This guy is emergency riff. That's going to be a problem. Lancelot Kayson. This guy has some I think these people are going to be eliminated, so we're going to stay the course.
Speaker A
Going to stay the course. Of course, if I get a two star Badang this game is a lot better right now.
Speaker A
Should move a lot of these items around. [groaning] Okay, and I also need to remember we need to look for Lancelots. Uh the problem is when Lancelot is in the orb, I he doesn't appear as something you own
Speaker A
here. So, it's, you know, quite easy to skip. Uh but that's okay. We'll figure it out in a sec.
Speaker A
There. So, now we need one more Lancelot. Could we move the things, the items, sorry, to a, you know, two stars Zilong instead?
Speaker A
[music] We could. We could. I think I'm going to keep it on the thing though.
Speaker A
So, here's our build right now. 6 4 2 2 [music] 2 1. If we get a plus one, I'll throw in a bruiser.
Speaker A
I'm just curious, what is the number on the higher? I guess we'll do Zilong instead.
Speaker A
[snorts] That's a very beefy Zilong. I have anti-heal, which is the, you know, the counter to Kagura.
Speaker A
And he only has a one star Lancelot. We're going to knock him out straight up.
Speaker A
Best case scenario would be whoever gets knocked off she's still alive. That's unlucky. And we need one more Lancelot. We're going to go into the fate box here.
Speaker A
Or we can look for a damage item. Or plus one. Or, you know, crystal.
Speaker A
We can use We can use defender crystal. That is possible. It's like That's not going to be the Items, not really much damage items. I might just take gold.
Speaker A
No, we're going to take Selena. Can't go wrong with Selena, so. Here's another chart topper.
Speaker A
Quick roll. Another quick roll. Another roll. Okay, here's the two-star Lancelot. So, yeah, right now we're at 300.
Speaker A
Slow with the battle. Oh, we're at 366. And that is without items on the Lancelot. We're going to, [music] you know, get some items here and boost that number up even further.
Speaker A
Again, we're quite far from, you know, three stars along or anything like that. Ideally, you have a two-star Badang by now.
Speaker A
And you have everything for him. And at that point, the numbers around 400. And then if you put items on the Lancelot, it can get up to 500, so.
Speaker A
This would be a huge round for them. It looks like they're wrong. I believe I still face worker on Give me a sec. Yeah, still have face worker.
Speaker A
We're going to knock him out here. That is huge. It looks like This guy's buying his Zilongs.
Speaker A
Enemies coming. Phylax activated. Let's see. He has so used He has Zilongs. How about this guy?
Speaker A
This guy has the Gushans. This guy has [snorts] Kasha. You better watch out. Mhm.
Speaker A
I don't have any two stars yet, which is worrying. There's two Badangs left. There's five Fannys.
Speaker A
So, I think we'll be okay. But, we'll have to see. I popped my face with her.
Speaker A
I also popped his face with her. Nice. Nice. I guess Kadita could 1 v 9 this here, but I'm feeling pretty good, especially with this little lifesteal. Ooh.
Speaker A
Nice. Perfect. Two-star Gusion here. Two-star Badang. Okay. This is what I want to show.
Speaker A
And there's a two-star Fanny. Perfect. Okay. So, it's 366 on him. It's 444 on Badang. And again, this is without items on Lancelot. So, what items do I want to add to Lancelot? We can add Maybe we can add one Molina.
Speaker A
Actually, let's add Let's add BOD. And then, let's find two, you know, strong hybrid attack items here.
Speaker A
We're just looking for the biggest numbers. Biggest numbers. Has claw plus 20? I'll take it.
Speaker A
Plus 15 for spell blade. We'll take that. We'll take Lancelot out out of orb.
Speaker A
511. That's huge. Keep looking. Okay. So, 511 attack. He is giving that to every single Starbell on the board. The CC is going to have 600 attack.
Speaker A
[music] This Mia going to have 600 attack. This Fanny going to have a thousand attack.
Speaker A
[music] Uh the dream scenario of course would be have a Starbell crystal on Zilong so he would get an extra 500. Let's just show this off. Fanny thousand, Mia 600, CC 700.
Speaker A
Badang almost 1400. Another strong strategy. So, we popped the card passive. Okay, I kind of need him eliminated so that I can You're going to need some help.
Speaker A
star here. Give it your all. Could get three star Lolita though, so Slow with the battle.
Speaker A
Might have to be a three star Lolita. You'd better Leave it to me. Everything else is contested.
Speaker A
This guy has [snorts] uh the Gushions. This guy has not much of anything. I need to buy a Themis. That is I didn't even see that. Five. Okay, so he still needs a while.
Speaker A
And what about this guy? And this guy of course is buying the Zilongs. Hopefully he gets knocked out.
Speaker A
army to stop me. But it's going to be it might just be me against [music] him in the end because uh he has Nana passive still, so This guy has a lot of Gushions though, so I think big win. Again, the phase
Speaker A
morpher in the orb is very very helpful. So, we're thankful FOR THAT. REALISTICALLY DOUBLE KNOCK OUT THIS GUY.
Speaker A
HERE'S ANOTHER chart topper. Leave it to me. Fate has it. This guy going to have to roll down for a three star.
Speaker A
If he does he's going to have to sell some stuff. I don't think he's going to be I have almost Gusion denied. If he If he looks like he's getting close. Okay, he's selling his Gusions. He sold down his
Speaker A
Gusions. He needs two more Yins. Please sell those along. Or is he just going to hold it till he denies? I think that's a bad idea.
Speaker A
He has no time. I think we can knock him out here. And then this guy going to start to buy those demons. If we don't knock him out, hopefully we get a double knock out here and the game is
Speaker A
over. All right, we're going to lose to this guy. That is okay. He's far from three stars, so.
Speaker A
If we find a three star of our own, we'll be fine. He has first dibs.
Speaker A
With plus one, I guess we could add a bruiser crystal. We could add defender to him.
Speaker A
I think we're going to go plus one and just add in a random bruiser. Don't know if that's going to help.
Speaker A
It's better than nothing, so. I'm going to get rid of Who do I want to get rid of? 36 HP?
Speaker A
So if I do have to roll down it would be next turn. I probably want a three star Zilong.
Speaker A
Lolita is the closest, so might have to be I'm going to sell lucky right now.
Speaker A
And then I'm going to move my people. I think I could realistically win this if I just had a different mindset when it came to positioning.
Speaker A
So, let's see if the bruiser and the positioning makes a difference. Well, the round is this round I'm probably going to lose it still, but actually we could win this.
Speaker A
Perfect. I forgot I had phase warper in the orb. We'll take the win. Um if we had lost that round, we would have just gone for the three-star, closed it out.
Speaker A
Thank you everyone for watching. Hope you enjoyed the video. If you did, please make sure to like and subscribe.
Speaker A
This build does work on a wide variety of commanders, so I think it works best on Cho, so if he's open, I highly recommend giving this build a go. Good luck. I'll see you in the next video or stream.
