Awesome video! When I started doing the challenge I thought Guinea pig would be useful but didn't think to use it in this way! Creative as always. I also want to mention that I made the silly mistake of getting Griffin Turn 5 and then forgetting and choosing the Fairy... it wasn't until a few turns later when I started to wonder where my Tier 6 Level 3 was that I realised what had happened!
This is why I love this game, there will always be insane and interesting things that no one has done before! Very satisfying snipes from the mantis shrimp
Yooo that’s my squad trying to get the alchemedes achievement. Funny enough I didn’t face your squad but another on that turn. Did manage to get the achievement on that run. Love your content man
12:00 "more power to them if they're still enjoying the game even though they're playing the same pets every time" My dude has been playing only treasure chest for days 😂
I don't think me grinding a challenge for a few days really compares to playing clownfish/jellyfish every game for over a year 😆If I had to pick 2 pets to play every game it wouldn't be those 2 😬
Hmm tough call. I guess maybe turkey and one of the summon lootboxes like orca or eagle? Then you can use turkey both for summon teams but also just to pivot in other pets and eagle/orca provides some variety 😅If it had to be early game pets then maybe something like flycatcher or aardvark that are unreliable but really satisfying when they pop off.
so crazy that you've kept going down with the turn numbers, very impressive. such a shame to see you lose to hippo, but Im glad the cute cerberus won. also insane to me seeing you get all those clips at the end, must be so many failed starts
I actually faced you 2 battles in a row in that game but the first one was cut off for time! Now which one is the correct pronunciation? Scave like cave or scav-ay? 😅
I guess with god like, perfect, impossible rng, the earliest would be turn 5? Let me think out loud here X3 you can buy 6 pets in rounds 1 and 2, which is enough for two level ups. If you burn them in round 1 or 2, you can get early mandarin and guinea pigs, so a 1.33 mandarin or a 2.33 guinea pig could be obtained before tier 2s can be rolled for. Could also farm gold in rounds 1 and 2, using all the traditional methods (pigs, marmoset, magpie, etc.). Could go full magpie team to get 1 level up and carry 5 gold over, enough for 1 roll and a buy on turn 3, or 2 level ups and 2 carryover gold, which seems comparable if not better (but again, requires god like rng, at least it's early X3). Magpie also tends to occasionally clutch out rounds with its' stats, especially when leveled as a 3/6, so could potentially nab a trophy or draw this way. with a god like turn 1 and 2, on turn 3 you need to buy 6 extra pets to get the level 2 mandarin and level 3 guinea pig. Gold is sparse here admittedly, though with even more obscene, completely nonsensical high roll every pet could effectively cost 2 via stoat, which would require 12 gold, which the extra gold from selling tier 1s or magpie carryover could fill in. fastest way to the level 3 map seems to be fountain of youth+level 3 guinea pig -> spider -> pill -> get griffin -> sell. Costs 4 gold initially, with the 2 level 2 magpie strat could sell them both to get that. but since you sell the level 3 on the spot, you do get some extra gold to buy something to try to salvage all that lost tempo lol. 2 turns later the map gives chest, pill level 2 mandarin. tbf, I have not played with it very much, and I'm unsure of the mechanics. What happens if you break the map manually? It says on break summon the chest in it's ability. If you ramp up the impossible rng to obscene, outright impossible levels, could pill the mandarin on turn 3, and spend the entirety of turn 4s 10 gold to buy another level 2 mandarin and pill it (realistically you'd need carry over gold from a swan/sell/magpie or something to roll at least once for that, holy cow X3). This would potentially land the level 3 tier 6 on your team before the opposition can even roll for tier 3s, which is mind boggling to imagine :0 I love this. Closest comparison is old pill eagle, but that costed four gold, and only required a 1/10 chance with a level up on tier 4 + a pill, it was really easy and basically became the meta before it was finally nerfed. But THIS??? In normal conditions it'd give you the tier 6 around or after the time you've unlocked rolling tier 6s anyways, and the obscene high roll and multiple health burning throw turns required to push that back to earlier turns more then makes up for it! The vast majority of runs even considering a turn 7 tier 6 will die horribly, and finally getting it is a worthy reward for either the extensive grinding involved, or the crazy high rolls this game is partially defined by. absolute madness, excited to see just how far regularly play can push those turns back :D
Yeah mathematically you can get really silly. But realistically it's a non starter. I've played hundreds and hundreds of games at this point and only had level 3 guinea into spider turn 4 a handful of times. Bearing in mind that the spider then has to be pilled AND also hit griffin just to get the tier 6 on turn 6...
@@GroundedSAPoh absolutely! I don't expect turn 4 to happen, ever, effectively impossible. Turn 5 is also really stupid and it'd probably require an obscene grind at best, and be effectively impossible at worst. But if all the challenge videos have taught me anything, someone will try, and they'll try a lot X3
You always say something about seeing the same players with the same teams. Don't you realize that you're playing the same combination of player and team over and over? That person may utilize the same combination in every build, but it's not the same iteration of their team. How many spider build teams of yours do you think are out there?? "oh, groundedSAP only plays a spider team". Dufus
I'm well aware that it's not the same iteration of their team, which is what makes it so unusual. Builds only stay in the matchmaking database for a few days at most, so all my spider teams will be gone soon. But bl00dshotrose will still be pumping out jellyfish/clownfish teams just like they have done for months if not years at this point.
I love when you construct a cool, synergistic build in SAP and a single hippo just crushes your hopes and dreams
Monkey has a lot to answer for
I love it when there's tons of different synergies and combos you can invent and evolve yet 99% of the fanbase goes "heheheh timger leempard snek"
So true 🥲

@GroundedSAP
True. I just thought it was kind of funny. And a year of jelly clownfish is deranged behavior. 😂 Keep up the good work!
Dziękuje / thanks for the inspiring content!
❤
My Polish is pretty much non-existant but I assume I can trust Google Translate on that one ;)
Leviathan with 4 30 30 fish is a valid turn 6 (even 5??) team now
Probably not a big deal if it only happens every 500 or so games 😂
I think I got a lvl 3 leviathan turn 9 which was pretty absurd
Ridiculous. A man of much patience 😊
It's wearing thin at this point! I would love to see a turn 6 though...

The relief was real 😅
This is too much cool man
😎
Omg. Pog. This is so awsome, how many tries?
Hundreds. Didn't count them all 😅Towards the end I did start counting the guinea pig transformations though, and spider was rock bottom 😭
@@GroundedSAP respect.
I am 12 seconds into this video and I must inform you that you are king for even attempting this 💪💪💪👑👑👑
I hope the rest of the video lives up to that billing!
@@GroundedSAP As always, top tier content. Your level of patience is enviable
11:30 why not take turkey instead of shrimp? would be +10/+15 in fight
Only if it survives. Mantis shrimp is just solid guaranteed damage and improves the value of the lynx.

I'm going to need more than science to go lower than this... 😬
11:50 Lynx is 9 damage and Mantis shrimp is 10 so I would copy the mantis until you got 2 more levels. I think 3 dogs is enough for the turn.
Especially with the Cerberus ability- higher chance that a front enemy will be taken down by an 8/8.
