Sully “The Pickle” McLeary: Plushie Round

by

Back when the Celestial Tournament was new, for some reason I worked out a strategy that involved only 2 pets.  I’ve re-tested and updated to make sure the strategy holds true here below.

Synopsis: Keeping Socks in the back row until the end of the fight helps keep his Unholy Ascension useless.  As long as your Banana Barrage doesn’t miss constantly, you should easily defeat dwarf ninja wannabe.

Goal: To defeat the tamer with 2 pets so that Elekk Plushie can be carried through the fight.

Sully “The Pickle” McLeary’s Team

 Socks with  Claw,   Infected Claw, and  Unholy Ascension
 Monte with  Huge, Sharp Teeth!,   Vicious Streak, and   Burrow
 Rikki with  Gnaw, hu16 Cute Face, and   Bloodfang

Your Team

 Darkmoon Monkey  –  Rake, hu16 Clobber,  Banana Barrage
 Imperial Eagle Chick –  Slicing Wind,  Adrenaline Rush,  Lift-Off
ma16 Elekk Plushie

You’ll start with the Monkey and use Rake and then Clobber.  Use Banana Barrage and Socks will swap out for Monte.  Use Rake to mitigate the Burrow Hit and then PASS YOUR NEXT TURN.  Monte will be back up and use Banana Barrage again.  At this point Monte should be dead and Socks will come back in.  Rake and Clobber him to make him swap out again.  Use Banana Barrage on the turn he swaps out.  Use Rake on Rikki and then Banana Barrage.  At this point you should be almost dead, so swap out to the Imperial Eagle Chick because you don’t want Rikki to heal up with Bloodfang.

Use Slicing Wind and Adrenaline Rush to finish off Rikki.  This should also make you faster than Socks so use Lift-Off to dodge the first hit from him.  Use Adrenaline Rush again to remain faster than him.  Slicing Wind until you’re dead.  Bring back in your Monkey and use Clobber and Banana Barrage.  Rake if you need it, but Socks should be finished by now.  You should be able to get Socks into his free Undead round, and bringing in your Plushie to soak the last hit will net you the win.

 

Dr. Ion Goldbloom: Plushie Round

Synopsis: As long as you’re able to finish off Chaos quickly, he won’t cause you much trouble.  Trike’s the only other pet that hits hard at all.

Goal: To defeat the tamer with 2 pets so that Elekk Plushie can be carried through the fight.

Dr. Ion Goldbloom’s Team

 Screamer with  Alpha Strike,   Feign Death, and  Lift-Off
 Trike with  Bite,   Adrenaline Rush, and   Horn Attack
ma16 Chaos with  Logic, ma16 Uncertainty, and   Instability

Your Team

 Bronze Whelpling  –  Tail Sweep,  Early Advantage, ma16 Arcane Storm
 Darkmoon Tonk –  Missile,  Minefield,  Ion Cannon
ma16 Elekk Plushie

Bronze Whelpling starts off the fight and passes his first turn.  Use Early Advantage and Arcane Storm.  Screamer will be under half health and he’ll swap out, so swap out to the Darkmoon Tonk and lay down an immediate Minefield.  Hit Missile twice, and then finish off Trike with an Ion Cannon.  You’ll get hit with Screamer’s Lift-Off, but after that lay your minefield down right after.  Bring your Bronze Whelpling back in, and since you’re faster, pop Arcane Storm again to finish Screamer.  Use Early Advantage and Chaos should die.  If not, you should have enough health to finish him with a Tail Sweep.

Lorewalker Cho: Plushie Round

Synopsis: There are lots of preparatory abilities on Cho’s team, so take you can take advantage of them by hitting them hard before they use them.

Goal: To defeat the tamer with 2 pets so that Elekk Plushie can be carried through the fight.

Lorewalker Cho’s Team

 Wisdom with  Peck,  ma16 Wild Magic, and  Rip
ma16 Patience with hu16 Broom,   Tranquility, and  ma16 Clean-Up
 Knowledge with  Tail Sweep, ma16 Amplify Damage, and   Solar Beam

Your Team

ma16 Nordrassil Wisp  – ma16 Light, ma16 Flash, hu16 Soul Ward
 Scourged Whelpling –  Tail Sweep, hu16 Call Darkness,  Plagued Blood
ma16 Elekk Plushie

Bring the Wisp in first and tear up Wisdom by using Soul Ward, Flash, and then Light.  You’ll have to pass a turn because all of your abilities will be on cooldown, but then just repeat the same rotation and Wisdom will be finished.  Keep the same rotation until the Wisp dies.  Your Scourged Whelping should be able to finish off Patience and Knowledge just fine.  Save Call Darkness for Knowledge because it does a ton of damage.  Having an guaranteed extra round on the Whelpling because he’s undead should save you from unlucky crits.

 

Wise Mari: Plushie Round

At first glance this fight didn’t seem too hard, but I found out differently when I started to try to throw teams at him.

Synopsis: You can’t let Carpe Diem live too long, else he’ll Dreadful Breath your whole team into oblivion.  Spirus hits really hard with his Arcane Blast, and as usual, being faster than your opponent is key.

Goal: To defeat the tamer with 2 pets so that Elekk Plushie can be carried through the fight.

Wise Mari’s Team

 Carpe Diem with  Grasp,   Cleansing Rain, and hu16 Dreadful Breath
ma16 Spirus with ma16 Arcane Blast,   Healing Rain, and  hu16 Soul Ward
el16 River with  Whirlpool,  Pump, and   Dive

Your Team

 Tiny Flamefly  –  Alpha Strike,  Hiss,  Swarm
 Lil’ Bling –  Inflation, ma16 Blingtron Gift Package,  Make it Rain
ma16 Elekk Plushie

Your tiny Flamefly will easily take care of Carpe Diem with a Swarm and two Alpha Strikes.  You’ll then need to immediately swap to Lil’ Bling to deal with Spirus.  When Spirus uses Soul Ward, use the Blingtron gift Package to heal yourself up at any time.  Use Make it Rain and then use Inflation for continued damage.  It might be close, but Lil’ Bling will finish off Spirus.  The last part of the fight involves setting up your Tiny Flamefly to finish River.  If Gift Package and  Make it Rain are both on cooldown when River enters the fight, just pass a turn and then use Make it Rain.  You’ll most likely die at this point.  If neither are on cooldown, start with Make it Rain.  Use the Gift Package (which will heal you because River’s underground), and then use inflation.  When you bring your Tiny Flamefly back in, make sure you are the fastest pet in the fight.  If you aren’t, use Hiss.  Constantly Alpha Strike-ing will finish off River.

Chen Stormstout: Plushie Round

If I was putting together a team of pets to frustrate the tar out of my opponent, this team would be right at the top of the list.  There’s so much luck involved that someone like me who prefers a clean predictable fight that may take longer over a shorter fight that might not work has to just roll with the punches.

Synopsis: This battle is a giant mess.  A 25% chance to be stunned (yeah right, we all it’s 90% when used by an enemy battler), a two-round sleep, 25% chance to miss, and giant damage with Barrel Toss.  This is quite a tough fight.

Goal: To defeat the tamer with 2 pets so that Elekk Plushie can be carried through the fight.

Chen Stormstout’s Team

 Tonsa with  Bite,   Headbutt, and  Chew
 Chirps with  Flank,   Lullaby, and   Locust Swarm
el16 Brewly with  Brew Bolt,  Barrel Toss, and  el16 Inebriate

Your Team

hu16 Flayer Youngling (h/s, p/s, s/b) –  Triple Snap, hu16 Deflection, hu16 Kick
hu16 Corefire Imp –  Rush, el16 Immolation, ma16 Wild Magic
ma16 Elekk Plushie

Start off with your Flayer Youngling and use Deflection.  This will block the incoming Headbutt and assure you don’t get stunned.  Hit your Triple Snap and then Kick the incoming Bite.  The preloaded Chew will still hit you.  Triple Snap twice more and then deflect the Headbutt.  Use Triple Snap 2 times more and Tonsa should be dead.  At this point, you have Triple Snapped 5 times for a total of 15 possible hits of 140-150ish damage.  You’ll need at least 9 of those Snaps to actually happen to make it sure you’ve made it through Tonsa with enough health left over for Brewly.

When Chirps comes in, the first thing he will do is use Lullaby to put you to sleep.  This causes no damage, so you can safely leave your Flayer in until he’s asleep.  Swap to your Corefire Imp immediately after and use Immolation.  Cast Wild Magic right after that and then just keep hitting him with Rush until Chirps is defeated.

Brewly will come in and the first thing you should do is use Rush for a guaranteed hit before you’re drunk from Inebriate.  You’ll be able to use Rush 2 more times before you get pelted with Barrel Toss and die, and you’ll probably only hit with one of them due to your chance to miss.

Bring your Flayer Youngling back in to finish the fight.  There are a lot of variables near the end the fight here, so use your avoidance tactics wisely to finish the fight.  Brewly always casts Inebriate after it falls off, so use Kick to block it and get 2 turns with 100% accuracy.  Dodge any incoming hit that might kill you with Deflection and Triple Snap when Barrel toss is charging or you have nothing else to do.  I would imagine your Elekk Plushie is level 25 by the time you’re taking on the Celestial Tournament trainers, so you can even use him to take a hit or two while squeezing an extra hit in between the damage-free rounds of Inebriate/Barrel Toss/Barrel Toss hit.

The maddening thing about this fight is all the chances to miss, dodge, sleep, or be stunned.  The above strategy takes as much of the RNG as it possibly can for a very high percentage of winning.  Headbutt is always dodged and Lullaby is taken by a pet that is intended to be swapped out.  Inebriate gets off only one time, but that’s four rounds of 25% chance to miss.  Out of 20 tries, I succeeded in finishing the fight with 2 pets 18 times, so I’m calling that good enough.  Let me know in the comments below if you have a better strategy!

Wrathion: Plushie Round

Synopsis: Wrathion has a fun looking group of pets flying behind him.  Cindy does annoying damage if you leave her up too long, and Alex can be tough to get down because he has so much health and has a heal on top of it.  Also, watch out for Dah’da’s Elementium Bolt, because it will stun you at very vulnerable times.

Goal: To defeat the tamer with 2 pets so that Elekk Plushie can be carried through the fight.

Wrathion’s Team

 Cindy with  Diseased Bite,  el16 Blistering Cold, and el16 Ice Tomb
 Alex with  Breath,   Ancient Blessing, and  el16 Flame Thrower
 Dah’da with  Shadowflame,  Roll, and   Elementium Bolt

Your Team

 Black Lamb  (h/p, h/s, h/b)-  Chew,  Comeback,  Stampede
 Scourged Whelpling –  Tail Sweep, hu16 Call Darkness, hu16 Dreadful Breath
ma16 Elekk Plushie

First off, a word about the Black Lamb.  You should be able to use any critter pet with Chew and a damage double-r effect like Gu’chi Swarmling or Elwynn Lamb, provided that you have at least 1500 health.  Don’t use Beasts with similar abilities like Little Black Ram, because they don’t have the stun immunity that a critter does.

Starting with your Black Lamb, use Chew and then Stampede.  The double damage buff will hit Cindy for 1000+ damage, and finish her off easily.  Your Stampede will end after Cindy has had her free undead round.  Alex will come in next and the first thing he’ll do is heal, so you have a chance to repeat the same combo that you did for Cindy.  Use Chew and then Stampede again.  After Alex turns your lamb into a chop with her Breath a couple of times, bring in Scourged Whelpling.  Use Call Darkness right away for big damage and then Dreadful Breath until Alex is dead.  Dreadful Breath will be hitting Dah’da as well, so when he comes in he’ll be half health or lower.  You should be able to finish off Dah’da with a Tail Sweep, Call Darkness and one turn of Dreadful Breath.

This fight took me the longest to find a viable strategy that was reliable.  Some strategies I used worked fine 50-70% of the time, but unlucky crits caused my team severe pain.  The below strategy has worked for me 10 times in a row, so I feel really good about recommending it to you now.

Synopsis: Bolo, Yen, and Yi hit REALLY hard.  Not only that, every time they hit you, they heal up from the Human racial ability!  Yi is the fastest of the bunch, so bringing someone that’s faster than him helps a LOT.  Your Molten Hatchling must be a s/s breed which means he has 341 speed.  This makes him faster than the 319 speed of Yi.

Goal: To defeat the tamer with 2 pets so that Elekk Plushie can be carried through the fight.

Taran Zhu’s Team

hu16 Yen with hu16 Takedown,  hu16 Blackout Kick, and  Feign Death
hu16 Bolo with hu16 Punch,  hu16 Blinding Powder, and   Rampage
hu16 Li with  Triple Snap, hu16 Bandage, and  hu16 Spin Kick

Your Team

 Molten Hatchling (s/s) –  Leech Life, el16 Cauterize,  Brittle Webbing
hu16 Flayer Youngling – hu16 Blitz, hu16 Deflection, hu16 Kick
ma16 Elekk Plushie

Start off with the Molten Hatchling and cast Brittle Webbing.  Use Leech Life to heal back the life you just lost and you’ll get stunned.  Pass your next round and then use Leech Life again.  Cauterize the big hit you just took, Brittle Webbing, and Leech Life will bring Yen under 50% health.  At this point, you want to swap to your Flayer Youngling because Yen will Feign Death at the same time.

With your Flayer Youngling in, start with Blitz.  Kick next to interrupt Bolo’s Rampage and then use Deflection to block the Blinding Powder.  Blitz twice more and Kick to interrupt Rampage again.  Blitz once more, and then Bolo will blind you.  This is fine because you will use Deflection on the next attack.  This just gave you a round of free damage.  Blitz one more time to finish off Bolo.

During the Bolo fight, you may find that you killed Bolo earlier than what was expected.  This is fine as long as you have either Kick or Deflection up.  When Yen comes back in the first thing he will do is try to stun you.  Use either Kick or Deflection to avoid it and then Blitz him down.

When Li comes in, your Flayer Youngling may or may not get some damage in on him.  Just Blitz until you die and bring your Molten Hatchling back in.  Cauterize right off the bat.  Use Brittle Webbing then Leech Life right after.  Brittle Webbing is your only ability off cooldown, so use it and then Leech Life again.  Cauterize is off of cooldown, so heal up again with it.  One last set of Leech Life – Brittle Webbing – Leech Life should finish Li off.  If he heals near the end, just keep Leech Life-ing and Brittle Webbing him to finish the fight.
