Tips and Tricks[]
Role & Strategy[]
- Plot Twisted is a defensive fighter with a Signature Ability that allows her to resurrect once and deal massive damage when punishing opponents from her DEBUFF stacks. She also gains five stacks of THORNS, allowing her to reflect 100% of all damage taken for twenty seconds.
- Plot Twisted's first Signature Ability makes her a menacing defender if you don’t deal with her properly. 5 stacks of THORNS reflect 100% of the damage dealt back to you and most offensive variants simply cannot survive that.
- The best way to deal with it is by preventing Plot Twisted's resurrection. It can be done with either HEX with variants like Death Wish, Red Velvet, PRECISION hits with variants like X-Bot, Windswept, or Parasoul with special move EGRET CALL, or so called Permakill tools with variants like Biting Cold, Shear Force, or with Robo-Fortune or Umbrella Level 3 Blockbusters.
- Another (less optimal) way to deal with it is by removing THORNS with moves like CHAOS BANISH or variants like Summer Salt, preventing THORNS from applying with CURSE debuff or variants like Stand Out, or by utilizing DEADEYE to ignore THORNS all together with variants like Blue Streak.
- Her second Signature Ability gives her a niche on offense, as by stacking multiple debuffs her damage output increases significantly. With just 3 debuffs Plot Twisted gets a damage increase big enough to surpass any other Squigly raw damage output.
- Marquee Ability: DEAD ALIVE is the recommended Marquee Ability, as it can provide other teammates FINAL STAND to increase the longevity of your defensive fighters and stall for time further.
Stat Investment[]
- General Investment: As a defensive Squigly, Plot Twisted is best built with HP, Meter Gain, Resistance and Defense.
- Special investment: No Special Investment is needed for this variant.
Rift Battles[]
- Plot Twisted can be a difficult opponent to defeat in a Rift Battle defense team with catalysts such as Frost Armor and Return to Sender. These two catalysts make her a formidable defender that can reflect damage, resurrect and reflect even more damage.
- With continual resurrection from her own ability and Return to Sender, Plot Twisted can punish opponents with an unblockable Tier 3 blockbuster that is most likely going to defeat opponents due to her massive damage boost from the DEBUFF stacks.
- The combination of both her abilities with the two catalyst makes her difficult to properly counter. CURSE and HEX are not a recommended option as upon Return to Sender activation all debuffs will be reflected on you. PRECISION is an option, but if Squigly is inflicted with at least 1 debuff it will not prevent her resurrection (though it will prevent THORNS from applying). This leaves Permakills as the best option, the best users of which are Death Wish with a Level 3 Blockbuster, X-Bot with its Level 3 Blockbuster and Shear Force as they all also have tools to deal with Frost Armor reflect and many other catalysts in the process.
Trivia[]
- This variant is a reference to Alice Liddell from the game American McGee's Alice, which is based on Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland with its caption being a direct quote from the Cheshire Cat within the novel.
- Her caption is the exact same as Mad Malice's.
