These are my current teams. For RA Grodin will replace Parvati I just don't have the team cost yet. D Meta will be on L Kali and Beezlebub will replace my second Haku on my Devil team and lead.

I didn't prep for these uvos, so I'll have to wait a week to collect materials. I'm already ready for Tamadra village again.

I wish Sasuke didn't eat blue orbs.
Also got shrekt by the mythical difficulty of the rare monster guerilla dungeon, didn't expect Unicorn to hit so hard. Bye bye 99 stamina

I've yet to hyper max a single monster.. =(
D Meta is at 185 eggs and one of my Sonia's is 140. Now I'll move over to Kali...

Same here man, my highest card is lu bu with +73. I do have +83 stored on carbuncle which will be going to Kali. At least you have a lot pretty good teams to work on hypermaxing.
Why didn't you focus on one monster? It'll be faster to +297 and your friends will use your monster more often.

You get an extra team slot every 100 ranks.
Gotta wait until Friday for LKali's dubs. Back to grinding Gabrielle skillups

I started with Ronia then got A D eta and was all excited till I realized no hanzo meant then team was doomed(It was) then I went back to Ronia and Now she's just a farming team and there arw way too many 297 Ronias so I'm gonna stick Beezlebub in there dor my 30 hyper maxed Ronia friends. L Kali has my eye now. I just need to stick with her.

No one cared for them since they were a pain in the ass to evolve. Having to invest so much time and box space to get all the materials for a set of evolutions, it was just better to run super versions instead of dealing with pengdras, so they made it way easier to do so plus upped the amount they gave.

Hanzo-less Dmeta is only getting better now that more things are getting double dark rows, double skill boosts. You still have to deal with the terrible stats if you use Hamahime instead but mid tier content should be very doable. Hope you are at least using it as an easy KoG farm team.
As someone who never had a team capable of running supers, this is huge. Just need to hurry up and get to tech dungeons now.
You can make an easy super kings team for beginners with at least 2 poison users (or ignore defense skills like Ra/Bane). You will never see more than 2 super kings, the other enemies have weak attacks.
Nowadays I just crush their defense with a double Athena team and 2 prongs.
Maaaaan...this was so much "work". Cauchemar Desc was tougher than expected, took me 3 attempts. Also used 2 stones to get enough exp so i could level him today.
No PCGF for me....but im happy with my current units and need to work on leveling up/skilling my teams
Now i need to look for Parvati friends.
Uub sounds nice...which makes me sad that we will never get the DB cards :-/

Just cruised through true endless (for the first time ever) with an awoken Lakshmi team. She is an absolute beast! A single Andromeda active on a favorable board can be 10 million damage easily. I love that she can still do decent damage even when you can't activate 25x as well.
Got my Lkali now I just have to get good with her
Man I guess I'll just keep on running through endless until I can consistently activate her leader skill. I've tried all the tricks of compacting, getting rid of uneeded orbs, but halfway through matching I always fuck up and mess up my whole plan.
Also Lubu ult should be very helpful for my Beelz team. Just need to get my cost up more so I can add my second Ronia.

I wanted her day 1 because i have been saving so much evo material for her as well as exp fodder for Cauchemar and CuChu ....so expensive.Yea, I noticed that you already it. You are in quite a rush. It's no big loss to get it next week
Anyway, didn't know cauch was one of those lvl 70 evolve monsters. They're a pain. Already had to go through the motions for Chu Chu a couple of days ago, haha
When you think about it you need like 8 million exp for max lvl Parvati.
Hope you join soon as well.
Her rcv is insane. Awesome.

Would suck if you messed up the recipe for awoken Parv hahaha, that'd be over 3m exp and a lot of effort-stamina down the drain

Does she play like a burstier, less tanky Blonia? I'm looking forward to putting her team together but it'll be a while.
When do we get the new uevo UI. Should be soon, right?

Part of it was in 7.6 (made it more clear when you have an incorrect recipe and let you know what you messed up) while the rest was in 7.7 (let you select uvos from the evolve menu).
Okay playing with Parvati is fun. She hits hard even without an Dmg Enhancer. Have to get used to playing her but its already quite different than to what im used to. With her i have plenty of "useless" orbs who just are there to increase my combos..made me realize that before i only played combo leader like U&Y were you had to clear specic colored orbs...with Parvat you have more freedom how to clear the board, where with Rainbow leaders it often feels like you only have one max two choices.
As expected Verdandi boards work very good with Parvatis active...would work even better if i had someone to break fire orbs. I will try a run with Astaroth later.
Played Parvati/Verdandi/Verdandi/Perseus/Kushinada
I wasnt too interested in skilling up Perseus before - but his active worklich really well with the 25x activation. Max skill would be really helpful for longer dungeons. Extent Time Awakening on Perseus and Kushi is also very useful for creating optimal boards.
Will have to try some other units but so far Kushi and Perseus work very well. If i improve my combo skills this should be a strong team.
What does your team look like ?

Wait for tomorrow.
That's a way I would describe it, yeah. But honestly, I find that most of the time blonia's tankiness goes totally wasted (meaning that the rcv is so stupidly high as to be worthless... There's no reason to be healing for 50k wwhen you've only got 24k hp).
To put some numbers to it, my Lakshmi team has close to the same hp as my bsonia team (~25k), but the bsonia team has 11.5k rcv compared to Lakshmi's 6k rcv (which will improve to closer to 8k with plus eggs). I find this to be enough healing though honestly to tank just fine.
The damage of the Lakshmi team is astronomically higher though, I've hit over 2 million damage per card on the lakshmi team with only two rows, five hearts, and a couple of other combos. Those kinds of numbers only happen with bsonia on bsonia+bubblie actives, and even then only if you get a favorable board.
Even when you don't have rows, the Lakshmi team can use prongs instead (especially since I have Karin and blodin). A two prong blue plus five hearts is a half million damage hit from blodin alone. The Lakshmi team also had tons of blue +orb awakenings, which leads to even higher damage.
To whoever asked, the team I used was:
A.lakshmi / Andromeda / bd Karin / ult amberjack / blodin / a.Lakshmi
Probably 750 plus eggs total on the entire team.
That Ronia team seems kind of split between dark and red rows though.
Why not just do that on Thursday
Might still be a while.
Almost feels like gungho has to up the difficulty of the content again or perhaps add some new/more difficult normal levels.
While I have been very happy with my Urd team (urd/urd/hino/valk/theur/urd) I have also been slowly working on my Lmeta team.
between the enhance for A.Venus and DQ both coming today, I decided to see what damage I could do - I ran KotG - why not.
Friend Lmeta spiked over 3.5 million (alone) with just two rows an a few other matches.
team was Lmeta/DQ/A.Venus/Arcline/ChibiValk/Lmeta.
edit: I wish they would modify Blonia to make the team viable again.

Waiting for people to roll through new descendeds (ha!) with the new ultimates and talk about how easy it is. We're about two months ahead on ultimates and skill updates now compared to where everything was in JP when Sonia Gran came out.

What makes Blonia team not viable?
The randomness in the mythical descends for the most part makes them somewhat hard to roll unless you make specialized teams - but the new awokens are pretty great in comparison with what we have been dealt so far.
its entirely subjective, but my blonia team is currently the last I use for anything anymore. It has less damage, less spike, less hp then all of my other teams at this point. Certainly the RCV is the best, but who cares about healing 75k each time if you only have 26k hp.
this will change a little when odin's enhance becomes live, but I don't think its enough.
My current "standard" team is Blonia/blodin/blodin/hermes/bubb/Blonia (I have many viable alternatives for blue/physical when needed)
- depending what you are doing, say spiking on the boss - dependance on blonia is dangerous. too few or too many orbs kills the multiplier. without two full blue rows your damage will end up <600k with the multiplier - it just doesn't cut it, and with a 15 turn (max) cooldown you are spiking once per run.
- compare this to urd or to Lmeta - urd activates every 9 turns and while it is also prone to trolling, you generally use urd -> second changer so you are much less prone to trolls. Lmeta? valk is on 5 turn cool down, with Venus on 5 cool down and DQ on 8 - you have multiple options to spike multiple times.
Lu bu, Urd, and Lmeta can run KotG nearly 100%, blonia 70%
I'd like either a time extend on blonia, tpa or increase in her atk multiple to make the team competitive - (maybe a better word than viable)

Why the hell is Yomi so high in voting?
And I'm also debating on uvo'ing LKali #2. 3 on a team isn't really necessary, and she makes for a great non-dupe leader. At least uvos can be reversed/redone.

CTW skill I'm guessing. Lot of Kali players want her. I'd prefer D Kalinthough I need to get better at making a Prong to go along with her combo.
I can't agree more that bsonia needs a tweak to make her relevant in the current metagame. Honestly i don't even use mine any more even though she is hypermaxed. She still blasts through old content, but in the current meta new content she doesn't have enough HP to really be an effective tank (and therefore take advantage of her ludicrous rcv) and her damage is absolutely pitiful outside of a good bsonia board + bubblie which only happens every 15 turns at the max
Her rcv is just way too stupidly high, so I think that make it hard to balance. I can literally heal zero to 25k with a five combo that includes a single heart combo in it, which means 99% of the time it's all worthless overhealing. I hope she gets a uvo that makes her more worthwhile, because mine served me well for 9ish months. Honestly I'd trade half of her rcv for a sizeable HP or damage boost, but that's easy to say as someone with a bodin and max skilled amon on the team.
For those of you that are interested in the power of awoken Lakshmi, here's a damage-porn shot of my Lakshmi team after a simple karin + amberjack combo with no damage boosters - a total of something near 19 million damage if my math is right. It was a less than ideal board (only two blue rows), but i did get two three orb blue skyfalls. I can't imagine what it'll be like once blodin enhances blue orbs.

I wonder how well informed the people voting on the PCGF are. We obviously have a very deep knowledge of the metagame as well as advance knowledge of future archetypes thanks to lagging behind Japan, but somebody who just gets updates from the PAD Facebook page probably knows less about what to look out for. Hence shitbird and catte not doing so well in the poll despite them both being top 10 leaders in Japan at the moment.

I need 30 dragon plants. 11 Dragon fruits and 15 dub-topalits to evolve my 15 baby tamadras and feed them away.
My Kali team needs 11.
My Verdandi team needs 16.
bah.

It kind feels like you pulled too much and expanded too fast, instead of focusing.
And example team you could do is
Verthandi GZL Liu Bei Liu Bei Verthandi
Once you level them up... (and get the G/R ult of Liu Bei)
EDIT: You have some options for L.Meta
L Meta DQXQ Raphael (White Knight thing) Valk
L. Meta (Valk or DQXQ) Raph (White Knight) mini Sun Quan
I think you have plenty of other usuable teams in that box, as well. (L. Kali looks like it could work pretty well with your box.)

Well I wasn't ready for the Parvati Uevo. Need to collect the orbs, but green ones have been stingy recently. I have all the orbs for Lakshmi, but need a Noah and need to evo sigfreid.
Was able to evolve Lubu however which will be great to add another row to by dark devil team and the bind immunity will be helpful as well.
