I've been trying to compete with the higher ranked P2W players on my server (currently #5 in Ranked as a F2P) but I'm a bit unsure where I should be going now to try to continue to compete with them. Our server is starting to hit 70's and I'm starting to see more ninjas I'm less familiar with. I was capable of beating the #3 spot last night (by sheer luck?) but I am not confident in my ability to hold this spot. I have all blue summons, and now giant Katsuyu. I'm mostly concerned with if this is the best I can do as I am right now and what I should seek to be doing going forward (get such-and-such a character; or when I get X, replace Y; etc.)

I tried seeking help in another thread but it seems to be neglected...

Update: I have since pulled Giant Katsuyu from Summoning, and C, GNW Temari, GNW Kankuro, Ao, and Torune Aburame from the Kage Summon. This post was last edited by 114***@google at 2017-5-29 10:10

Hello again!
I'm currently number three on my server but I keep exchanging second and third place with another player about 1/3 of the time I challenge him. We have similar power, but my team performs inconsistently even without me shuffling my teams around. I've been toying with ideas for some teams of ninjas I don't have yet (namely, Jigokudo) but I'm not satisfied with a lot of the stuff I come up with. Specifically, I'm not happy with my current middle team (Sasuke / Hinata / Mabui / Yagura). Almost all of my good ninjas (mostly awakened /cultivated) are Water or Lightning which means as it currently stands, the shields do not consistently go to the same characters everytime. Right now there's only 1 character who ISN'T Water/Lightning on this team (Jirobo).

I've been trying to find a way to put Utakata together with Yagura (my current idea is alongside Akatsuchi and Shurado) but I can't find a way to get a healer on that team AND complete the chases unless Azure Fang is there and if she's not there, Chojuro isn't getting Poison on his standard. G_G If I had a better reviver to put somewhere I'd feel happier letting the team go without it because of Akatsuchi's shields and Yagura and Utakata's self-healing.


I've also been trying to figure out a way to build a Chakra-swallowing tank team centered around either Choza (whom I'm 79/80 on) or Jirobo. The idea would be to move Mabui to this team along with either snake Cloak Kabuto or Jigokudo (whomever I get first really) and then I guess 10 Puppets Chiyo? Apart from being currently impossible for me to actually build, I can't figure out how to make the chases work.

"Not the best." Is there anyone in particular that would greatly improve the strength/versatility of my line-ups to make it better? (I wish you had X so you could do Y, or you want to do Q but P would be more effective).
I'm running Sasuke and Jirobo right now because my Mei's barrier is overridden against both people above me, and the two allow me to prevent some poison/chaos from Mei/Danzo, but they also usually eat some round 1 interrupts from Ao, Guy, and Neji meaning that usually only one of them actually works. I don't know WHY this is happening. My Mei's initiative should be higher than both of them from inspecting their initiative runes, but theirs always goes off second.

I haven't fully trained Choza, so he isn't performing as well as he could. Here's some attempts with a mixture of old and new units, with some information on myself and my current rival.
