laa (league addicts anonymous) How you doing in the "League"

[Horsting]

Being in time pressure and dealing with the other two contests, I forgot to battle the last opponent and do a screenshot. However, I became 2nd with 7290 points and 24.3 average in 300/303 battles.

The only real problem was @Darkyz_ who was set to be 1st soon after start, being the only one with 0 lost points til phase 2, and then 6 the last time I checked. There were some other previous 1st players, but none of them did serious this week, some also still struggled to understand GS5, with girls at wrong positions.

I get 7th, without M.Booster and a lot lv differences

[mdnoria]

Finished 1st for the 1st time 😀.

Used 2 cordys, 1 chlor, 1 ginseng all week long and 1 AME for the last 30 fights.
Thanks to the lost points functionality of one of the scripts, I knew that I had a shot a 1st place since I was the one with the less lost points in the top 15.

My league bracket was easy again which helped a lot.

This week, I have FrostBurn1 in my bracket and some others 10+ top 1 players so I will be happy with a top 4.

[DvDivXXX]

------------------
D3 run #170  2023/11/02-09 (Denma Week 1 retroactively)

Another top 4:

No idea who won between @Tom208 and @Testiclese. I know Tom had already passed me over by a fair margin by Thursday morning (CEST/server time) and one other player passed me over after that (can't imagine it was anyone else than Testiclese). So one of them won, the other also got a top 4 and most likely "Fabio" with the super obnoxious font stayed at #4.

Not much to say, I rushed most of the league in Phase 1 although it turned out that Phase 2 let me build a stronger main team than I expected. Didn't have too much time to track opponents and I lost a lot of points to Reflect teams (even with chlores to soften the blow).

Congrats to you both in any case. Hopefully Tom will have a more recent screenshot or at least an answer to the main question: did you win?

Good luck have fun this week, folks. Stay safe!

I haven't crossed paths with him in league since the radical meta change we had due to the introduction of GS5. I guess he unfortunately didn't get the memo that defense teams are actually a thing now, as most top 4 contenders would score perfect 25 points nearly every fight (without needing 4 cordys) if it weren't for those pesky Reflect teams punishing you for hitting hard.

Oh, I've got the memo. I just don't care much at the moment.

Problem is, that my team isn't strong enough to be competitive. That's it. Extreme micromanaging and thinking long and hard about the new meta won't get me anywhere. I don't know if I've just missed the obvious big red button that everyone else in the Top 15 seems to have pushed to get a perverse stats boost. That's absolutely possible, because I didn't pay much attention during the last months.

The only other explanation I can think of is, that the whole light bulb thingy gives whales and koban millionaires a huge advantage until players like me catch up again. But as I've said, I don't really care much about it anymore. The game's UI gets more and more annoying for me every few updates (one of the last updates blessed me with not being able to change my champion teams anymore and all my usual tricks won't work), there are more and more ridiculous koban and real money spending events and I just grew tired of it. At least a little bit. I'm seriously considering going full F2P and enjoy the harem I've build instead of participating in weird rat races anymore. I mean, that's the whole point of the game, isn't it? Not the artificial PvP stuff or hoarding dozens of different resources.

My league results since the last big update were mixed. After a funny season with *lots* of monsters in my league (I got 13th) the girl skills update came and I got 1st, 1st again (without AM-/LM-boosters and on autopilot!), 2nd, 3rd... and after that I usually finished somewhere around 8th place and Top 4 became completely unreachable.

I'll have to see if I can get into the Top 4 again as soon as I can afford to give skills to more than 2 mythic girls. But this will take a while.

Thanks for your detailed update. I can see where you're coming from, and it's a lot healthier to take it the way you're doing than too seriously as some of us. All the best to you regardless.

Not wizardry - Tom208's Hentai Heroes++ (OCD) Season version - it "highlits names according to their tier 5 skill" - that's how it stated in change log  - colours are different - there are also green, golden & blue

This week I ended 5th. It seems this is the most I can reach with my current setup unless luck put me in a weak group.

Like Moonlynx said I don't care much for girl skills, I don't have the bulbs and the time to search for the best team each week, and also I don´t want to burn hundreds of millions of Ymens every week to reclaim the bulbs.

At least have one white or green orange mythic with maxed tier 5 skill (shield) on first position of your team(s), if this is not the case yet. This alone makes a larger difference than any other skill, GS3 synergy or whatever, which could require a weekly skill reset.

That is easy to setup so I had it done some weeks ago.

White or BROWN (physical). Green gives reflect

 

P.S. I was too lazy to compile a report, so I’ll write it like this: HH - 3rd D3 league, CxH - top-15 D2 league (top in Nutaku), PsH - 43 (I think, I’m 90 percent sure) D1 league

I'm having a duel with Rylarth this week...

@Rylarth what do you expect your score will be?
I'm expecting about 7,595 points. I did a small mistake today, that might have cost me 2-4 points.

Too bad that I couldn't reach 7,600 points.

Edited November 15, 2023 by OmerB

[Rylarth]

i have only used 1 LME so i have been kinda chilling best i can get with 3 fights Left is 7539 but thats seems unlikely since my Last opponent is kinda high Leveled i also think i could have done better if i fully commited to using 4xChlorellia all the time since i use the shield Skill right now there is only two boosters that makes sense in my opinion when using that since its based on your ego making your shield stronger only ginseng and Chlorelila affect your total ego since cordys dont boost your ego i consider using 4xcordys in in combination with Shield skill to be Less effective

It probably depends on your team and bracket.  I'd agree that'd be my assumption, if not for the new booster sims.

Half & Half chlorella (2) and cordyceps (2), plus an LM, is currently suggested to be the best option for me, if they're boosted.  4 chlorella plus an LM is best if they're unboosted.

Whether or not they're using reflect on defense, makes a big difference.  Using cords in that scenario just hurts yourself more.

I'm using a 40% shield.

I'm not a whale nor a koban millionaire, but just a player who learned how to put the bulbs into a good use. I put few hours a week, to plan my team, putting the bulbs and the girls gear into their best use. I only started to get D3 wins after the addition of the tier V skills, so for me it was a blessed change (although I admit that I liked the skills more prior to the addition of the 5th tier).

Anyway, my point is that you can win the league, or at least get top 4, without spending much or having gazillion kobans, with the bulbs we're getting from the season, Daily missions and contests. It works for me.

Keep in mind that you currently do not differentiate between boosted and unboosted opponents. And filtering it, will lead to a too small sample size to get general results. With shield, Chlorella in relatively stronger against weaker opponents than Cordyceps. The stronger the opponents (including boosters), the stronger Cordyceps become, in average.

EDIT: Other topic: The bug with season team girl equip being applied to all league girls has been solved. There was a related patch note entry and I just verified that my defensive league stats do now match precisely the offensive ones.

EDIT2: Hum, now (AFAIK this was not the case in mid day), the league table shows the offensive stats, including AME bonus, and immediately changing when one changes the team, also without using any scripts. I hope this does not mean that the defensive team stat bug is only masked, instead of fixed 🙈. I do not like this at all, as now one cannot check defensive stats at all, only with the help of another player in the same league.

Was it a relaxing week again this week for you ? I'm sorry for your bracket luck, but you bring out the best in me, the only two perfect weekly scores I ever got were against you... despite your Reflect team😏

Of course not, where would be the fun in that ? 😈

If you give all the tips and tricks to everybody on the public forum, everybody will play the same way and the RNG will reign (even more) supreme, with an edge to whales that have the most girls/bulbs/equips, nobody wants that...

Keeping our most recent findings in private among my dear clubmates is way more gratifying so we can dominate together, between people of taste and talent 😊

Wait, why is that?

If I'm clicking on myself in the league (admittedly using -MM- League++ and zoo's HH++ scripts), I can see my defence team and defence stats, am I not correct? 🤔
