Atk+, Res- or Spd+,Res- for Zelgius?

I recently pulled a Spd+, Res- Zelgius trying to go for Brave Celica. The one I'm using now is Atk+ Res-. His build is Alondite, Swap, Black Luna, fierce stance, bold fighter and goad armor

Go with +atk.
BUT
if you want him to get quads with bold fighter then +spd.

but IMO go with +atk so he can dish more damage.

You can't get Quad strikes with Alondite and Bold Fighter. You can only get Quad attacks with Zelgius by using a Brave Sword with Bold Fighter. And since Bold Fighter ignores Speed, if anything, there's even less reason to run +Spd if you have Bold Fighter.

I'd honestly go for plus speed. It bring him to a point where he'll outspeed most units and double destroy them in the process. I have a +spd Zelgius myself and I think he's great with it. Losing the atk boon really isn't that big a loss as 52 base Atk is still fantastic in my eyes.
I also run Heavy Blade on him. Trust me, it's outstanding and way better than Fierce Stance imo. If he gets hit and doubles the foe, he can proc Black Luna on literally every enemy attack he outspeeds. It's amazing. It makes the use for bold fighter unneeded and let's him use Warp Powder for better mobility.

I highly recommend the +Atk -Res one. I have the same IVs, and have been using him ever since his debut banner. The thing is, Bold Fighter is by far his best build. And if he already has guaranteed doubles on offense, then Speed isn't useful for anything except preventing doubles. Which isn't that important for him.

I personally run Brazen Atk/Def 3, Wrath 3, and Armor March for maximum low-health destruction lol. Bold Fighter is on my list to hopefully give him.
