Fixing Aether Raids

I'm assuming it's not just me that's sick of coming up against a Wrathful/Dazzle healer, Reinhardt, Brave Lyn and a dancer? They can be dealt with, sure, but it's so dull seeing the same, unimaginative team, time and time again that I'm getting sick of the whole mode. If you're running this team, you lack original thought.

I was thinking the mode could be changed to limit the movement types for the defense teams so you have to think of something a little more interesting than the above. It could be implement so total movement of team must be equal or less than 2 x number of deployed units +1, so 9 if you're running 4 units, 11 running 5. If you're still unimaginative, you could run two cavalry but would then need an infantry and an armour. Anyone think this would be workable?

While I don't see Rein and Lyn that often I do understand some of the frustrations. Those three "meta" threats are easy to get by though. It blows my mind why people don't just run TA3 Gronraven (doesn't have to be Graonraven+) WoM and DD3 on Adrift Azura since she's a bonus unit. I'm pretty sure we've all got a 4* Roy, Cain and 3*Cecilia lying around.

Just like Arena, the higher your rank the less you see of those 3. From what I've seen, they're hardly present at 5,000+ Lift.

They are easy enough, if annoying, to get through as I mention in the post, I have TA/Raven/Bowbreaker Inigo and M!Robin with Vantage Rhajat. That doesn't change the fact that yesterday the three battles I could do were all the above combo, 2 using Veronica and 1 using Priscilla with Pain/Savage Blow 6. I'm only at 4500-odd lift so I'll hold you to them disappearing and the opponents becoming interesting once I've climbed a bit higher.

How do you deal with them when there's a sword horse overlapping their attacking range?

Good question...want to show a setup where they can cover the entire range of both ranged horses with a red and not let me attack into the formation?

In a pinch I do have LA Lyn with 39 spd, 30 def, 37 res, guard, brazen atk/res, and blue gift, and I brought hone spd on the team. So she'll probably survive long enough for me to get the others involved.

I can understand your concerns but i kinda understand that people, they just tired of losing lift because of defence. I wonder if i can be considered as one of them, because i do use Veronica, Aversa with B!Ninian and WT!Olivia.
Also i kinda happy to finally have use for Ursula in offence team, she is damn good against Rein and B!Lyn on player phase.

As for your suggestion, i think that is a nice idea, but i'm afraid that IS might turn AR into another arena so i'd rather have things like it is.
