COMBOCOPIA Fight Modifiers​

PLAYER + ENEMY​

FALL SHORT​

Suffer a stack of SLOW for 10 seconds when reaching 2 COMBO HITS.​

​

AMPLE-TUDE​

Gain HASTE for 20 seconds when either Fighter reaches 8 COMBO HITS.​

​

FAMILY FEAST​

Gain 2 random BUFFS for 20 seconds when either Fighter reaches 20 COMBO HITS.​

This PF favors the multi-hit characters (like Annie, Big Band, and Squigly) and fighters that thrive on buffs and blockbusters (Mean One Peacock and Stand Out Eliza will be well-fed). I haven't played much to develop offense/defense strategies, but it seems it might be good and bad to do long combos if it gives your enemy buffs.

What do you think of the first-ever Combocopia?

 

[BallotBoxer]

I understand why there hasn't been much conversation about this PF... there isn't much to it. SLOW only bothers low combo fighters like Beowulf and others briefly on their way to getting HASTE. Simply a Blockbuster-boosted bash to brute-force your way to the top (not unlike Painwheel's Gold PF No Pain No Gain where damage increased meter). The +20 combo trigger of two random, often inconsequential buffs never really factored into the fights.

So easy and lacking danger, I expect beginners to have climbed the milestone ladder higher than usual.

As for the relics, nowhere near as hype as debut Death Wish Umbrella for motivation. I'm saving my Dinnertime Diamond Relic for next year!

I like to think the Devs are taking pity on us by alternating 'hard' PF modifiers...I mean after Costume Party, I appreciated an 'easy-er' 150M climb. I mean, 150M is still a challenge depending on the strength of your collection and time allotted to play (meaning, there's still plenty to do on a day-to-day basis in SGM outside of the Event PF).

Agreed; The Diamond Event Relic having an 'exclusive' fighter certainly set a precedent. Any future Diamond Relic w/out one will pale in comparison...

It's back! And it has a few changes!

INTERMINABLE INDIGESTION​

Gain a stack of permanent MIASMA when reaching 40 COMBO HITS. MIASMA is removed when TAGGING OUT.​

NEW FOR 2023​

• Diamond relic renamed. Dinnertime Diamond Relic --> Dressed Up Diamond Relic
• New modifier "Interminable Indigestion"
• Relics from previous year no longer update their prize pool. My leftover Dinnertime Diamond Relic transformed into a Dressed Up Diamond Relic (2022). This loot table adjustment was made for 5.4 (27 June 2023)

The easy PF has gotten easier! Time for Annies, Big Bands, Squiglys, and Umbrellas (and other high-combo characters) to shine. Usually the combination of low attack power and multi-hit moves would be a detriment (feed the enemy's BB meter), but long combos now rewards you with HASTE, 2 BUFFS, and now permanent MIASMA. Just look at Squigly and Painwheel who can turn into Vaporwave Vixen Fukua with just a BB3.

EDIT: 12 days in and I am yet to trigger Interminable Indigestion. Either the enemy dies before getting to 40 or something is bugged. Take Squigly's BB3 Rage of the Dragon, which gives an easy 120 hit combo. One would reason that qualifies three times for the permanent MIASMA buff. Nope. You get nothing!

Who's your go-to high combo fighter?
