The strongest teams

Answers

Strongest.. in what sense? Do you mean the strongest as far as raw attack damage, or do you mean strongest in special triggers, like Ignis? Or perhaps you mean strongest in both offensive AND defensive capabilities?

Need more info before deciding to play the game.

I know strongest can be confusing, I just posted an example of what I think.
It's more like, make the most OP team you can. Team that could clear different content and be very good in Arena Offense.

We would need much more information to give you informed decisions, because the “strongest” is a very different idea for each person.

Personally, most of my “strongest” teams are theme teams such as (insert name here) emblem. A mixed team could be interesting.

Edit: I will do an interpretation.

Armor: Sheena with a tank build, slaying axe+ with res refinement and a def boon speed bane, she would run a dual rally, Ignis, DC, Wrath, a tactic skill, and QR3 seal.
Infantry: gotta go with Soleil. +ATK-DEF, Firesweep build with heavy blade seal. Tactic skill also.
Flier: Cordelia takes this one with a +SPD-HP build, summoner support and a quad strike build to bring her to the next level. Also runs a tactic skill. Guidance seal for mobility.
Horse: sticking with color theory, Elise would get my vote here. +ATK-DEF, wrathful dazzle combo with slow+ and Miracle, run an attack boosting A slot (either a bond or just ATK+3, her native recover+ as well as another tactic skill, and she would run an attack seal. With that build and max merges, she would be at 57 attack before any buffs, and after buffs she would hit 63 attack and 42 speed. That flower would destroy everything it touched.

This team has a wall in Sheena that can hit 50+ def/res, two killing machines in Soleil and Cordelia, a transporter that would be Cordelia, a healing killer in Elise, and a very sound structure that could become a force in any format.

I'll start first with a try at armor emblem :

- Hector (LA) +atk -spd
Berskerer Armads
Swap
Aether
Distant Counter
Vengefull Fighter
Goad Armor
Distant Defense Seal

- Lyn (LA) +spd -hp
Blarowl +spd
Draw Back/Swap
Iceberg / Moonbow
Close Counter
Guard
Armor March
Spd+3 seal

- Zelgius +atk -HP
Alondite
Swap
Black Luna
Steady Breath
Boldd Fighter
Ward Armor
Quick Riposte Seal

- H!Jakob +atk-spd
Brave Bow+
Reposition
Aether / Ignis
Death Blow
Bold Fighter
Ward Armor
Armor Boots Seal

I thought the idea was to use 1 unit from each movement type that's considered to be the strongest.

So Effie or Chrom from Armor Emblem, Cherche from Flier Emblem, Frederick/LA!Lilina/Sigurd/LA!Roy from Horse Emblem, and Soleil from Infantry.

Effie and Chrom have the highest attack of all armored units.

Cherche has the highest attack from Flier Emblem.

Frederick, Lilina, Sigurd, and BowRoy have the highest attack in Horse Emblem

Soleil has the highest attack in Infantry Emblem.

Shows what I know. xD

Lol "the idea" was? The question was asked by Moshi, and he just showed you his interpretation.

I just corrected the statement, lol.

I see. With your mixed team, triple (someday quad?) tactic may be very good.

For me, strongest means best survivabilty and tanking. For others, strongest may mean OHKOs and ORKOs.

In my opinion, the strongest possible team would have to be Armor emblem. They have the highest BST, and highest defenses. Sure, they are slow to move, but with the right skills they can tank anyone.

They would not really on offensive power to kill, instead would take hits and retaliate with Ignis/Glacies bombs. The frontline shield needs Guard, and the back lines renew HP and buff or grant movement.

Here's what it looks like in practice (my defense team below). But not perfect yet, as I don't have all the resources. I need to give Lyn Renewal and possibly CC, and give BK Guard. I also need to give Sheena DC.

I know there may be better defensive teams out there (like dragons or Hector), but this was the best I could do with what I have.

I use this team in arena offense as well. For me, defense is the best offense.

I partially agree with what you said. Strong to me is not only the survival aspect, but moreso the ability to be a tank that can take hits and then have a cannon to fire back with. A wall is good, but a wall that kills is even better. Why use a regular fence when you can use an electric fence? Why build a regular wall when you can install holes to reveal the offensive side of the wall? A good defense is solid offense, but a solid defense that uses said defense with its offense is the best offense. Ignis for everyone!

I like the idea of having a team that is super hard to kill and can take so many hits before falling :)

That's exactly what strong means to me. Bladetomes and glass cannons are powerful, but not strong, as they can fall pretty easily on the defensive.

Defensive tank teams are strong because they can defend well, and they can hit even harder when doing so, lol.

Fae with a defense boon and SBAether(Able to tank almost anything, especially with a fortified tile)
Sigurd with DC(How many sword users can actually survive and kill an optimal Reinhardt with their counter(barring tinyhands having Swordbreaker)?)
Zelgius since he's got that unique warp powder that helps him overcome the limitation that armored units face
Cordelia. Need I say more?

Tried to pick one of each movement type, and couldn't think of a colorless to add, since most colorless are fairly predictable. Brave Bows, Firesweep Bows, Wrazzle Dazzles. There isn't as much variety there.

Well, everyone has different opinions as who the "strongest" is
For example, on flier emblem: azura isnt that great offensively but having sing makes her one of the "strongest" green fliers Cherche and Minerva are often competing for the green slot as well, with Cherche having better damage output, and Minerva having speed and survivability, neither is "stronger" than the other
And then the mage fliers, S!Corrin, S!Camilla, and H!Nowi Camilla and Nowi have more attack than Corrin, but corrin has more speed which makes her "stronger in terms of a blade tome build but weaker in any other build

Either way, what I would consider the "strongest flier emblem would be something like this:
S!Corrin (blarblade), Cordelia/Tana, Cherche/Elincia/NY!Azura for the last 2 slots depending on preference and availability
I personally am running no elincia, even though I have her with +Spd, and i do fine in all of my battles, especially since everyone just nukes and azura sings them to let them nuke even more the only thing elincia has over someone like Cherche in this team comp is the ability to quad, but that only works in desperation range and she can barely take a hit so in my preference i think Cherche is "Stronger" than elincia for both of them doing similar roles (Also ive played Awakening and I like cherche more so im kinda biased there)

Iprobably said it wrong.
Just make your strongest team of each type :) Or mixed emblem if you prefer !

Well in that case, I’ll do it right here.

Horse: full blade emblem. L’Arachel/Eirika/Cecilia/Elise, Hone on Elise/Cecilia, fortify on the other 2, standard blade builds on each, wrathful dazzle slow+ power build on Elise for the purpose of maximum damage output and auto full heals with Recover+. Elise would be +ATK-DEF, Cecilia the same, L’Arachel runs a +SPD-DEF, and Eirika runs +ATK-DEF. The team would destroy everything that didn’t nerf the magi buffs, and Elise would kill Brave Lyn/weaken her to where she would be killed by another unit.

Armor: full winter team. Tharja would run an owl tome as a speed bane res boon, Chrom would run a Brave build with an attack boon and HP bane, Robin would run a Berkut’s lance build with DC to show he can do it better than Effie, and Winter Lissa would run slaying axe with a refinement for resistance, DC, vengeful fighter. All 4 would use ward armor. All 4 would have seals to suit their needs (Chrom with HB, Tharja with close def, Robin with distant def, Lissa would run panic ploy)

Flier: this can be done in 1 of 2 ways: all out offense or super tank. So I would need to make teams with respect to each.

For offense, a team of Elincia/Cordelia/Cherche/Caeda would be used. The first 3 would all have Brave builds (the former 2 would be quad strike builds, the latter a deadly single round build), the last a super powerful meta killer with a refined Wing sword and a strong special like iceberg. The first 3 would run seals with respect to what they want to accomplish (Cordelia and Elincia would run either attack/speed seals, Cherche would fire off an attack seal), and Caeda would be solid with a close defense seal so she can hit harder on enemy phase with her special and be able to survive much longer. All 4 run goad fliers. An alternative would be a straight bladetome flier team with NY Azura for mobility purposes similar to my above horse blade team.

For tank fliers, Michalis/Tana/NY Camilla/Myrrh. Michalis would run a build along the same lines as my own masterpiece, with a refined Hauteclere, reposition, Ignis, iotes shield, QR, and a heavy blade seal. Every first enemy phase striking with 40+ ignis damage is insane. Tana would be a general tank build with her native Vidofnir and skills to send her stats through the roof. NY Camilla would be a tank build as well, with her native blade and a traditional tank build with bonfire and spd/def bond to go with renewal 3 and the iotes shield seal. Myrrh would be the flying dragon tank with DC, QR, and a panic ploy seal. All 4 would run either goad or ward fliers, most likely goad to increase the firepower of the tanks and then slap a drive def seal on Tana and put a spur def or res seal on Myrrh. They would be tanky and ferociously powerful.

Infantry has so many options that it would take a long time for me to state, and my full mixed team is above.

Wow pretty nice toughts on this :)

I really like your flier tank team ! Maybe I'll try something similar someday, it seems very strong and fun to play with, I just lack Tana and Camilla for the moment.

I've got an armor emblem team which exists of the following units:
Black Knight: Brave Sword+ Pivot and Black Luna
Sturdy Blow 2, Bold Fighter 3, Fortify armor/hone armor and quickened pulse.
B!Hector:I used his base kit and give him the atk/def 2 S seal.
Amelia: Slaying Axe+ with attack refinement, reciprocal aid and Luna.
L&D3, Renewal 3, Armor March 3 and Attack +3 (i have a +1 Amelia with 58 attack, nice huh?)
And at last:
LA!Hector: With Berserk Armads, Reposition and glimmer.
Distant Counter, Vantage 3, Armor March 3 and Quick Riposte as S seal.
