Making a high investment 'trash' tier team

Report

Answers

I wouldn't call anyone trash bar Henry, and if only because of his horrendous Atk. At least Odin can make use of his Spd and become a 60ish Atk threat (and even if it's still underwhelming for a Blade Tome).

Characters aren't trash; people just lack creativity.

Oliver is too good. You should build up Odin instead (although it's easy to build him up). Jakob from colorless is also the obvious choice. Don't really know about greens, but Arthur is kind of bad (but he's more kind of obscure and underused).

Is Navarre trash? His stats aren't that bad, It's just that he doesn't stand out among sword units.

And Clarine is actually very good if she has an Atk boon. If you're talking colorless, it is defintely normal Jakob, as whatever you give him came from a better unit.

Green has very good units in general, and the only ones that could be considered bad would be Arthur, Narcian and maybe Gunter? Even then, they aren't that bad to be called trash tier.

I forgot about Gunter when I made my suggestions, but is he really not considered trash tier? What does he have to offer anyone outside of a horse team? Come to think of it, what does he offer to anyone who has ever pulled a Frederick?

Nothing really, he's just a slightly worse Frederick, I wouldn't call him trash tier because Frederick is pretty good, and being slightly worse isn't that big of a deal

Merric was long considered trash but he can be quite decent now with his new weapon. I don't know if that disqualifies him from your team. Depending on how masochistic you are, you can always try Boey but I feel like his build would be too similar to Oliver.

I've always been open to building Boey but I can never get good IVs on him. Until I get one that's not -atk or -def or vice versa but +, I don't want to bother :/
Also, I'd rather build him with a CC raven Tome so he couldn't be that similar. Oliver would be the magic tank and Boey would be the physical tank if I went with him for the team.

I do like your attitude!

I kinda tried to use "underwhelming" units myself, my strongest tank is Olivia, my best sweepers are Jaffar and Sakura and Azama and Clarine both have full SP, merges, builds and Merrit on my list, too.

I know, those are unit which aren't considered horrible (well, Jaffar and Sakura are considered horrible on Gamepress, but people have no imagination), but none of them is as appreciated as he/she deserves to be.

If you are ok to build a "trash" unit, which is actually pretty awesome (like your Navarre sounds), I'd advise you to take a closer look at Arthur. He can become really strong in the right hands, but most people ignore him.

Oh, and as an admirer of creativity: You MUST build a 5* healer! I'm having my Sakura at 5-6 currently and she is so fun to play. Good thing is: healers are generally underrated (except for Elise maybe), so just take one you like and go for it. I don't know somebody with a good 5* Lucius yet, but I have seen insane Lachesis, Sukuras and Gennys for example.
