Godfest basics

When making the decision to roll or save your magic stones, you need to determine if the featured pantheons can benefit or complement your teams. Chasing for one specific monster is unwise as you will most likely be disappointed and should ideally have Godfests that overlap with many target cards. Remember all monsters that come out of the REM will qualify for Skill Inheritance so do not be too hasty when selling dupes. For a more detailed team building help, please refer to my Popular Leader’s and their Full Sub List Post which is in the process of being updated. Lastly, to find more information about a specific pantheon or monster, refer to my Master List to better refine your search. If you are considering to purchase any of the Monster Point cards, please refer to my updated Tier List for help and advice.

Introduction

The Heroines and Mayhem Godfest features some of the best Pantheon cards at a sad 3x rates. However, 3 Pantheons are featured per day so that may be some consolation, but GFE are also at 3x rates. In addition, all featured cards will come out at level 50 and +10 to a random stat. Non-featured GFE will not appear on those respective days.

Presently speaking, most players will be pursuing cards for the new flavours of the month: Dark Athena  and Kushinadahime . Sadly, this Godfest is missing Haku  but many other valuable cards are featured alongside Kushinadahime.

Unfortunately, and strangest aspect of the Heroines and Mayhem Godfest is that there is no gala occurring alongside. This means no Gemstones or even better focus on an element you crave. Instead, we have an additional Tamadra popping out.

Ranking the cards – Pantheons & GFE

These rankings I assign cards are my own and take into consideration the card’s value as a leader, sub, inherit, and possibly any niche role they fulfill. In order to rank in the highest tier, the card has to excel in their respective role and cannot feasibly be replaced by anyone else. This can also be thought of as a Best in Slot card and tends to have applications on the top tier teams.

Despite my best to remain neutral, there is always the potential for bias and you need to be able to examine a card and determine if it can benefit your unique Monster Box and situation.

Legend guide

Symbols condense the time spent processing information and here is a brief explanation for each one I will use:

S

The best of the best. These cards compromise a best in slot role on top tier teams. They are largely irreplaceable and tend to offer something unique that cannot be easily replicated. This mostly exists to showcase the jump in power between the rest of the cards available.

---

A

All of the cards in this tier bring tremendous value to a variety of teams as either leaders, subs, or inherits that are challenging to mimic elsewhere. For example, Green Odin  remains one of the strongest bind clears and only card that can remove 5 turns of awoken skill binds (outside of Odin Dragon ). It may not be paramount to your success, but is well worth owning overall.

---

B

This category indicates cards that have value, but are not as widely used/irreplaceable as the above tier(s). While they may make your life easier and still bring an additional layer of power to your team, they are far from necessary. With that being said, some of these cards could hold the key to your own teams as everyone has different tools to work with.

---

C

Cards in the question mark category tend to be those that are a luxury and are often not widely used for the average player. With that being said, they may bring niche value to your monster box or provide an additional option to use. A great example of this is Red Odin  who is a premiere button farming option, but with the addition of Red Tamazo , players at least have a “farmable” poison inherit along with the future implementation of Descend inherits.

---

D

This category indicates the bottom of the Puzzle and Dragons barrel. These cards tend to have almost minimal value as they simply do not fit in the current meta and are badly in need of a buff or new evolution to give them viability. With that being said, you should still keep them as they technically have the most potential for improvement (think Light Metatron ).

---

This arrow indicates if a card has moved up since the last posting/tier list. The category/bracket they are placed in will be their new home and each arrow will show how many brackets they moved up (eg. 2 will indicate they climbed up two rankings).

This takes into consideration the the + and – within tiers.

---

This arrow indicates if a card has moved down since the last posting/tier list. The category they are placed in will be their new home and each arrow will show how many brackets they moved down (eg. 2 will indicate they were demoted down by two rankings).

This takes into consideration the the + and – within tiers.

---

+

A + indicates that these cards are relatively stronger than the other cards in that respective tier bracket and are trying to move up and may do so if a minor buff or new card/evo is released that can full capitalize on their strengths.

---

No plus/minus

No plus/minus indicates that the card is in the middle of their respective tier bracket.

---

–

A – indicates that this card is relatively weaker than the others in their respective tier bracket and are on the cusp of being demoted.

Impressions

Both days feature amazingly powerful cards that have relevance in today’s meta but is sadly marred by 3x rates as well as no coinciding Gala.

Kushinadahime  could probably have a tier all to herself as she is simply overpowering (can be joined by Haku ) but that would throw off formatting and HTML confuses me. I write more about her HERE along with a sample Arena 3 clear.

Another thing you should consider before rolling is the soon to be announced Player’s Choice Godfest. I do not know when it will be announced, but it should be relatively soon. Furthermore, please do not vote for 6-star GFE and instead try to populate the list with pantheon cards as the rates for 6-stars has been historically low in PCGFs.

Pantheon tier list

Due to the way that Powercreep works and how GungHo does not actually nerf cards, I may have to do a soft reset in a few months where I demote everything but the very top down 1 ranking and then readjust if things have become stronger. Presently, I only demote cards if I have overvalued them or they have completely fallen out of the meta. However, this is not the case for this list’s ranking but may be something I do in the future.

GFE tier list

I feel that having a tier list that visually ranks the various GFE against each other when looking at their viability as a leader, sub, assist, or niche role is beneficial. Being able to cover numerous aspects will result in a higher placing along with their value in rolling dupes. This will attempt to rate these cards from a general box point of view and your individual situation will dictate just how important each card is.

Generally speaking, if a this is your first time acquiring a GFE, it will have at least some value and you should never sell a non-duplicate card.

This is an updated list compared to last time to reflect the new evolutions that have been announced/released in JP. Within each tier, the cards are in no particular order and is simply how they appear in my icons master list or after reshuffling.

Notable changes

 Anaphon

Anaphon should have probably ranked at least a B to begin with as she is a respectable leader and now has growing usage with the shifting meta towards dark teams. While a 4-element board has been historically unreliable, we are now using leaders with blisteringly high multipliers that do not rely as heavily on flooding the board with their primary colour in favour of pursuing 7+ combos to trigger the 7 combo  awakening. As such, Anaphon’s ability to produce heart orbs along with key colours for Dark Athena  and Kushinadahime  is valuable while being able to provide stat transfer through Skill Inheritance to Hakus .

Gadius  does not move up as his colours do not have merit on any top tier team.

Putting it all together

3x GFE and Pantheon rates apply.

 Conclusion

The Heroines and Mayhem Godfest has one of the best Pantheon line ups, but comes with the lowest 3x rates. Furthermore, with no colour Galas and PCGF on the horizon, it may be hard to justify rolling here.

Once again, I want to stress that voting for PCGF should be done for Pantheons and not 6-star GFE.

Let me know what you think about this Godfest, if you plan on rolling, and on which day.

Happy Puzzling!
