Mama's Little Tactician

Heya, it's ya boi with the curse of pulling Roys! (Seriously, I get these things nonstop. If anyone needs TA, hit me up.)

Anyhoo, I just pulled a +Atk -Def M!Morgan from a free summon. I love Morgan: he's my favorite child unit ever! A lot of builds just say to make him an offensive sweeper and call it a day. However, one look at his unique weapon tells me not to do that. So... I made a build I like to call:

A Takumi by Another Name - M!Morgan Build

Grima's Truth
Ardent Sacrifice
Growing Wind
Close Counter
Vantage 3
Spur Def/Res 2
Close Def 3 Sacred Seal

By making use of Grima's Truth and an AoE special, Morgan can become "A Takumi by Another Name" that targets Resistance and can buff his teammates reliably. Ardent Sacrifice is a reliable way to ease him into the range of Vantage while his Close Def 3 Sacred Seal as well as the Def boost from his unique tome helps him to better survive a hit. It is recommended to give him the Water Blessing in order to keep his speed at a high level for avoiding followup attacks, as Morgan can likely take one hit, but not two, from faster reds such as Ryoma.

Morgan's purpose on the team, true to the quirk of pitfall traps related to his character, is to set up a giant trap for his team to close in on the enemy. After he attacks once at a group of enemies, he can abuse Vantage as well as his amazing Attack stat to kill the already wounded enemies (thanks to his AoE special) as well as beef up teammates that can finish the job for him should he need it. Even if the strategy is not as effective as planned, Spur Def/Res 2 is put as a failsafe for squishy teammates that might need a small buff to survive.

Recommended team composition for this build is Fjorm (to supply the Water Blessing speed buff and to tank blue mages), an Infantry Pulse user (to help trigger the AoE special earlier), and a nuke that can dispatch high Res units that Morgan himself cannot kill with his trap.

Does this build seem worth investing into or am I wasting time? I already burned Takumi to give my son Close Counter, but I didn't really use the pineapple otherwise, so... Thoughts and feedback on this build are much appreciated! Thanks!

EDIT: Oof, this got buried under the wave of "zomg new banner whatchu get" posts lmao

thats essentially the same build i have with my morgan! growing wind was swapped out with moonbow for consistent damage but overall your build is a good mixed phase build! his weapon really helps too, i know some people would prefer a blade tome but i feel his weapons debuff is really nice. the build is worth it, at least to me, since morgan is pretty tanky for a mage with close def and can tank hits from a lot of units provided theyre not blues or speedy units like ayra.
