A tank? Hah, Sgorm scoffs at the idea. Mr. Simp finally uses his swords for damage. Let's see it.

Terminology Explanations:
Skill CC: Any skills that have some form of displacing or controlling the positioning of the enemy. Useful against flinchable enemies.
CP Damage: Compound Damage, aka how easy it is for a unit's to cap. Named as such as it is a combination of innate skill scaling modifiers and the unit's innate kit damage modifiers.
Skill Speed: How long a skill takes to complete doing damage.
Skill Chain Ability: How long between uses of a skill it takes to use the next skill. This is a combination of skill speed, the duration between when the skill stops doing damage and when you can next use a skill, and other factors such as positioning. Kyle's S1 has the best skill chain ability of all skills in the game, capable of spamming it one after the other with no breaks. Nero's S1 finishes doing damage however he hangs in the air for a decent period, and his S2 needs you to be positioned properly else you will run back to use it.
Skill Combos: The ability of one skill to naturally progress into another. Gravein's S2 launches him up into the air, and his S3 can be used in the air for example.
Mobility: Whether or not skills let you move to a target in some way instead of just walking up.
Any others are pretty self explanatory.

The ruleset of the E5 tests is simple:
Pablo:
-No cap raise except for Tinkili's battle start cap(3k for 40s)
-Spirit Breath/Glass Record for SCT sustain
.The point of this test is not to show the highest level of potential, but the likely potential you will have if you are not minmaxing or uber lategame.
.Glass Record is a limited skill, of course, and I use it to make these tests go by faster! You can easily get a similar effect with just spirit breath and any healing spell spam, or use other means to generate SCT.
Lambda:
-Cap Raise from Tinkili's ult cap(5k for 20s per ult, 22s with G Bracelet) & equip cap from Scarlet Sword(2k)/Hale Sovran's Ring(1k)/Phantom Key(0.5k) for a total of 8.5k additional cap when ult is active
-Spirit Breath/Glass Record for SCT sustain
.The point of this test is not to show the highest level of potential, but to show more potential in a unit than at base, to see how a unit does with a decent amount of support
.This fight itself runs into issues for old units with lambda's mitigation. Even with every tool to cap, some old units just can't, and so in those cases the builds will be adjusted to let them cap, this meaning the need to sometimes take off the additional cap gear
.This fight also needs Gen to draw aggro to enable backstab, requiring the loss of a few seconds for positioning
Both of these fights have some element of luck towards aggro ai and other factors.
-Ideally for Pablo, the wave 3(group of 4) ui will have none of the pablos move close to each other. I do not have Theopolis nor a team slot for sgoroth or a black hole caster. I wish I could say I wouldn't need Tinkili to cap, for I would gladly swap her to change to one of those two to allow me to draw them into the center to not rely on rng, but I can't. Sometimes you will see multiple Pablos getting hit at once due to various factors, and because it is not practical to re-record each time I may estimate a time.
-Ideally for Lambda, Gen will draw aggro in the back and enable those in the front to backstab 100% of the time. Ai can be fickle, and it can sometimes be a hard balancing act to get stuff to cap. RNG also plays in when it comes to getting hit with the 'Seal' debuff after a Lambda ult, something old units might just have to face.
The purpose of these tests is NOT to find the exact perfectly executed times for each unit under the exact rules set. It is to find where a unit generally falls. It is better to rely on general placements of a unit to estimate just around where they fall for PDPS, and any further talk for how a unit performs as a whole will be discussed in the video subtitles or on my sheet as I add those units in. Units are more nuanced than just damage, and with Maze certain factors may drive their value in different directions as well. These tests are simply to find where the PDPS factor of a unit falls, and should not be used as a measuring stick for how good a unit actually is. These are showcases, not reviews!
With that said, thanks for reading this. I'd like to make the process and content itself as transparent and open to change and criticism as possible, so all constructive feedback is appreciated! I am also open to answering any questions provided they aren't personal or rude! With that, enjoy the vid!
