Distant Counter on WT!Reinhardt?

I have a +Spd -Res WT Reinhardt, and I was wondering what A Skill I should put on him. I have both Hector (+Atk -Spd) and an LA!Hector (+Spd -Atk), and since Hector now has Berserk Armads, I can't really find myself using LA!Hector anymore. Should I fodder off LA!Hector? I also have an extra Dorcas with mediocre IVs, so would Fierce Stance be a better choice?

I'd prefer to have a more Enemy Phase Rein, especially since he has a perfect 40 hp stat. One use of Ardent Sacrifice will get him into the sweet spot so that both Vantage and Quick Reposte will proc, leading to a quad counter before the enemy's first attack. If I use DC with that strat, should I put Luna or another special over Moonbow to help guarantee the kill?

Thanks in advance.

I've seen multiple people ask this question, so I will give the same answer.

If you want my honest opinion, it's not worth putting Distant Counter on him. While he can make good use of it (since he can have Hone/Fortify Cavalry buffs to up his survivability), he really does not need it unless you're trying to make Reinhardt into a solo unit. There should be other units on the team that can handle tanking ranged units while Reinhardt can handle melee, hence the 4-man squad.

Of course, I can't stop you from putting Distant Counter on him. Hell, I put Distant Counter on my Donnel (although he's my current 5* merge project, so...) so if you REALLY want to, if you REALLY feel like you should do it, then by all means go ahead. Just be aware, however, that until you get more DC fodder (or if you want to fodder your +Atk Hector), then you won't be able to fodder it off to any other units that could make use of it (arguably better) than WT!Reinhardt unless you fodder off said Reinhardt.

I'm a fan of Fierce Stance, Vantage, and QR seal. He can still kill most units on initiation but his enemy phase has 4 guaranteed attacks, and when his health drops he attacks first.
