There is 7 cards I want in the final poll and I will pull whatever stones I can save up for it. I am non iap until I start working again, and if those pulls are enough Uriels and Gadius, Xiang Mei. Otherwise You Yu for me.
Right there with you. I can use 10 of the top 25 easily. I'd almost prefer going You Yu since I already have two blue hypermaxed cards (Rukia/Sheat) which would make a fully hyper team a trivial endeavor since I'm sitting on two 297 mules and another 1/2 way there.
The skill up event was kind enough to me. I managed to max skill Cecil and he's done great work in my A. Pandra team. The Cecil/D. Valk combo is up there with Zuoh/Aketchi for a strong burst mid dungeon or Cecil on his own as a mini burst + heal barring some light orb trolling.
All told I skilled up, D. Kali #2 (yay Ra Dragon can drop Ichigo!), every non REM FF drop, Terra, Cecil, Seraph Lucifer (Thanks Kanetsugu!), Sheen. No luck on Castor because I'm sitting on enough dark cards that unless I need his SBR he gets bumped by 6 other cards on valid teams. I wanted to skill up Bartz but his sword just wouldn't drop. And even still I'm not sure how useful he'd be on Sylvie/Freyja compared to the rest of my green box.
EDIT:
Forgot to mention I built some jammer teams for kicks since I finally evo'ed Gainaut. I tried a few different jammer configurations (rainbow, all dark, Urahara lead) and the results are obvious but interesting:
Rainbow Fenrir can deal an absurd amount of damage if the RNG gods love you. Underlevelled in Endless a 400x was doing millions of damage. I missed the screenshot since I wasn't expecting skyfall to cooperate. It's inconsistent as hell and if you have any other rainbow team use that. Sakuya, Ra, Ra Dragon, Kali all worked more reliably as leads.
All Dark Fenrir basically focused on me having three fenrirs so I always had jammers available. With a couple utility subs (Yomidragon, and D. Valk in my case) 100x pretty much at will but against non gods the damage wasn't anything I couldn't pull off with A. Pandora and I sacrifice a ton of utility (HP/RCV too) to make it happen. Actually a great farm team but if you can put it together you probably don't need to.
Urahara is a different sort. Basically wood rows and Algedi subs. If I can get Algedi skill ups I think I'll actually run with this team when I feel the urge to change it up. Giving up the HP/ATK/RCV boost of Norsebound is still difficult once you've gotten use to the buffer but the damage potential and ease of use can't be denied. The team was Urahara leads. Perseus, and 3 Algedis. Once max skilled the team will be able to pump out as much green and jammers as I need, Perseus is there to cover SBR, bring more rows, and generate hearts to either clear binds or just not die. In a dungeon with no resolve or OHKO pre-emptive attack enemies I can see this team working very well. As long as I don't need a delay, or shield, I should be able to burst everything down. The Urahara hastes will keep the Algedis up, Perseus covers cleric duties while also bringing a couple rows
