I wonder how they'll differ to begin with, especially since they're apparently getting two evos.

i guess this also means chinese girls are getting buffed to maybe x4

Kirin to 6x pls  :3


I wonder if Horus will get something too.

Kirin already got a subtype

Horus should probably get one too

Apparently, Isis is getting a leader skill buff to bring her in line with the new Chinese ult evos.  Not sure what yet, though.

i can confirm this is a thing, it's in a tweet somewhere.

no one else was mentioned, so horus/bastet are probably not getting shit

I wouldn't mind a Bastet buff, but I don't think she needs one.  Horus certainly doesn't.

I would, however, like a second ult evo for Bastet.

No, he's still among the best leaders in the game hands down

I hope the buff actually buffs her upper burst potential otherwise it would just be pointless. She doesn't really need an easier activation condition like atts + hearts since she's already the easiest leader to activate for x9. She needs a way to actually have a chance of beating bosses that have over 3 million hp without stones. Everyone else has Gravity + CTW + huge combo, but Isis has no Physical CTW or gravity and even if you get a huge combo with her it still doesn't hit very hard because she has the lowest multiplier.

Actually she seriously just need better subs. :/ No physical echidna, gravity, or ctw is the real deal breaker of her vs Kirin or Horus.

I dunno. Isis can work in tricolours, chinese girls cannot.

Horus on the other hand, while I would agree seems better for most situations, is absolutely completely inferior to that new chinese pair god which basically horus with hearts included...which incidentally also would work for tricolours too.

What I'm saying is horus is completely and utterly obsolete in every way for leader skill compared to that god than isis even remotely is to anyone else. And isis can cure 3 turns (it is 3 right?) of binds on the whole group on a cd of 3 while being bind immune now, so I wouldn't really discount her as a leader-only god anymore.

That's essentially what I mean, yeah, Horus is just feeling underwhelming with all the new gods coming out. He's just starting to feel obsolete. His active skill isn't really good for the Rainbow and his Awakenings are like... Mediocre, at best. The lack of a subtype really hurts him too.

I would, however, like a second ult evo for Bastet.

If anything, I think Bastet's only upcoming buff may be delicious G/L Genbu being healer. Otherwise I think there's reasons why her leader skill isn't really changeable at the moment. (I.E. Dropping the combo req or increasing damage threatens Oku a bit- though since they're giving JP2 ultis now, I don't see why they couldn't buff him too)

Horus... Honestly? He has issues now. A lot of better options are popping up. I don't think he's in as good a place as he could be, and I think he's not really on even ground with a lot of other burst teams. He could use a bone really.

isis can cure 3 turns (it is 3 right?) of binds on the whole group on a cd of 3 while being bind immune now, so I wouldn't really discount her as a leader-only god anymore.

Isis can cure 2 turns on 3 turn cooldown now. Which, while still kind of a small amount, is way better than 1 turn and straight out the -best- cure heal in the game for turn efficiency and only challenged by shower of healing use against stronger binds isis can't handle. She's also the only smaller bind heal that is bind immune.

Isis is in a really great position right now, basically. She might even make it in the next popularity godfest!

Looks like Isis' buff will be involving hearts

I'm guessing 5 orbs + hearts = 4.5-5x


Also dat team build. Berry Dragon will work a lot better with Isis' buffed leader skill and with BOdin and Isis actives you have so much healing on top of over 22k HP. Basically a tankyish burst team. I want :3

So basically, Ulti Ra with the benefit of not being orbtrolled as much, but without the potential benefit of getting x7?

Also, it's long overdue but I finally evolved my Suzaku in excitement for ultimate evolutions WHENEVER WE HEAR ANYTHING MORE ABOUT THEM COME ON (please be physical please be physical or healer I have enough attackers)

On this- keep in mind she has a subtype while ra doesn't. Otherwise that's pretty accurate.

So her actual top burst would be something like x60 with 4.5x and king slime, meaning she can actually hit harder than Ra with that if she wanted too.

in short Isis for god queen if that happens.

How the hell did we get to this point.

The thing is most of the other Egyptian twilit evos have movement time but also some more useful awakenings than resist.

Meteor Volcano Dragon get! Which means I now have control over Hearts and Dark Orbs to turn into Red. that should make bursting slightly easier, especially since the Meteor Volcano Dragon adds a whopping 20k damage on top of it. It's already at level 32 so its stats are good enough.

Already have my second Flame Keeper (and luckily got invaded by a dark keeper floor 1!) to go with my Echidna, now just wait until tomorrow to get a Carmine Mask (Unless I luck out in the Blazing Highway) and then two rubylits and EoS Echidna get!

(Then I'll have to find a way to get Keepers of the Rainbow and Mystic Masks reliably).

The plan is underway. Unfortunately Hera is a late bloomer so it'll take a while for the stats to start rolling in, but this is a start.

Let's see how the Tower of Windy Woods team is doing--



yeah kind of badly I still need to finally get Top Droidragon and then three more flame ogres to have a chance against Ceres :fail:

Two rounds of metal dragons. Not a single high or king. That's five rounds of metal dragons this week with no benefit on a 2x king rate.

This is why I have trust issues, gungho.

How come you're leading with Odin and not Andromeda(not complaining, I can use BOdin with I&I farmwise)? I think at that point you could use more utility than anything else. Like a Kamui, Hatsume, or even a Siren/megalo.

I can't generate enough blue orbs to use Andromeda lead, and Bodin gets me pal points. I would like more orb changers, but my blue knight hasn't gotten any skillups and I don't have a Hatsume or Megalo. Siren is just too meh.

Siren's gotten a lot better with her ult. She can easily replace Megalo unless you want physical typing.

Well, trying to burst down the keeper of the Rainbow certainly won't work, even with an almost full board worth of enhanced red orbs and Menace to give me enough time for a second shot at Rowdy's orbchange (plus TAMADRAPurin) I still barely got him to 40% HP.

Even Tyrannos's Magma Breath wouldn't have helped. So I need a new strategy.

Teaming up with Odin is pretty much a free win vs RKeeper (although kinda slow)

Well GOdin makes anything a free win with enough patience :derp:

If I combine my Pierdrawn's 30% reduction and GOdin's 80% reduction how much will that guve me? My math sucks because it gave me a 104% reduction and that can't be right.
