Okay, so I tried Challenge 10 with Gabriel. It's totally, completely, entirely doable. Maybe even easy. Except for one thing.
Vishnu is impossible.
Gabriel cannot kill Vishnu. Ever. Part of that is my fault. The way I have my team build there's too much of a damage disparity between my strongest unit (Gabe or Reine depending on whether there are any prongs involved) and my weakest (Snow White). My damage is too lopsided so I can't knock him down by half his health bar per attack like I was hoping. Part of it is not directly my fault though. If he wasn't green I could do this. I would be able to chip him past his 10% regeneration, and I would be able to knock chunks out of him consistently without using Beyzul. But as it stands he is green, so he's completely unchippable, so I have to kill him in two turns. Which I can't do. I've been fighting him for almost 90 turns now and it is theoretically possible with an absolutely flawless Ryune board, but even then I have to combo way beyond my pay grade to get giant rows.
I really feel like this is just the game taking a shit on my team. It's almost like Vishnu was formulated specifically to beat Gabriel. I know just about everyone struggles with him, but as a stall team I should have an edge when it comes to the enemies who can't be bursted just like burst teams have an edge against things like Satan. But nope, he's got exact counters to everything I can do. And he's in virtually all endgame content, which means Gabriel just can't ever clear anything in the challenge 10/ultimate arena range.

I mean, I haven't lost yet. Maybe I'll get extremely lucky, but it's much more likely the RNG on his attack patterns and the orb drops will align against me before then. But if it comes down to it
and this is absolute madness so I shouldn't even ask
does he renew his shield after 999 turns are up? :V
