Best users of sorcery blade?+ Enemy Phase laevatein

So I have multiple yogurts, and I honestly don’t care for, and none of them are that great anyways either being -speed and -Attack so I wanted to just user at least one as fodder, but I personally have no clue who to fodder her off to. I imagine it’s best on a distant counter unit (or a enemy phase unit) because of the requirements of adjacency. I do have a few units in mind, like A full on bond Sharena meant for enemy phase? I also do have a defence boon lagjarn (with I think a Res or speed bane) so maybe she is good with it. Can someone gimme a suggestion for a unit

I just realized that Innes is probably great with it (maybe?) as an even better mage tank, besides, he is an enemy phase unit mage killer as is

You could make a makeshift male fallen robin by putting it on a unit with high attack so no matter who you hit you still chunk them. Not so much Laegjarn because her attack isn’t that high if you had Laevataein now she would start to one shot people with max buffs and sorcery blade. So just high Atk units that can take a hit.

Well, first off, wait till 3.0 for any big fodders like this
Second it's physical infantry only. Not even armors can use it.

I think it's best on units that will fight high def targets, but do not need their A slot.
And units that want/can be next to allies easily
One character that comes to mind in Takumi. If there's one unit that's able to stick with allies it's him.

Fjorm might also be a good choice, it might help her fight physical units better.

And lastly since normal Ike doesn't already come with the great breath skill, sorcery can allow him to stand out.

It combines well with atk/def bond or enemy phase seals.
Just make sure to run dual spurs/drives on your mage. Make the mage fully boost the user of sorcery blade.

Yup. The unit gives up some stats by throwing away their A slot, so making sure the mage buffs the sorcery blade user makes up for that.

Take Takumi, he needs more speed to shine, so giving the mage spur/drive speed really helps him a lot.

Maybe everyone sucks with Sorcery Blade? You run the risk of giving up so much damage you can't properly do the role you were originally supposed to do. This is my problem with it being an A slot skill. Whenever I run calcs units just go to garbage half the time. I mean sure you can kill those low Res sword lords now... but couldn't you already? Just hit them with your mage. And vice versa. The only people i would ever try to get it to work on would be the Askr Trio/Fjorm because those are the only ones who you'd baby enough for this strategy to work in the first place.

It would have made most sense as a B slot, as most of the time your A slot defines your specificic role, and then your B slot improves upon it

This is exactly what I was saying! I just wish you were here on release to back me up. It'd be a nice change from the usual offense focused B slots. I'm sure many would still choose desperation over it, but I can tell you now no one have been choosing it over their Fury or SS.
