Cerephina the charitable

Okay so when I started the Cerephina fight my entire party was around level 50 (I got lucky with caits)
I had to use an ALMIGHTY OLIVE on that fight. I had an easier time with LYBLAC and that was with one party dead, half of the living ones on half, and basically no SP on anyone! Why in gods name did the devs think making the boss passively inflict a bunch of stun lock debuffs (sleep, comatose, paralysis, kind of blindness) would be a good idea vro😭

Help me build an OT2 timeline

What I know:
Partitio’s chapter one happens before Healeaks is abandoned (NPC selling medicine has Malaya’s spright)
Eir’s Apothecaries visit Lostseed before Throné’s chapter 5 (travel banter)
Assuming Castti recovers all memories after her chapter 3, Throné’s chapter 5 occurs before her chapter three
Castti’s chapter 4 probably occurs before Partitio’s (Ori talks to Castti during a cutscene and we can infer from the flame indicator on black screens that the Fellsun Ruins flame is extinguished immediately after Partitio’s chapter 4)
It's likely Oboro was invited into the Moonshade order by Claude since in his journal he claims he was approached by a man with a copy of the Book of Night, meaning Hikari’s chapter 1 must happen before Throné’s chapter 5 (copies of the book are most likely very rare since otherwise Kaldena would have been able to aquire a complete copy without her string of murders. Oboro says in his note that he reached the end of the book, suggesting the copy he read was complete. Claude and Harvey are the only named, active affiliates of the moonshade order who are male, and Harvey was literally on the opposite side of the world)

Please help compile this and any other random stuff into a semicoherent timeline

Question about mewtwo X

So I used to be an avid fan of this game and played it often, and recently I’ve been getting back into it on a fresh account after at least half a year away from the game (last I played on my old account Miraidon, Ho-oh, and Charcadet twins were some of the newest licenses). On both accounts, my main has ended up being Mega Mewtwo X (and Alolan Ninetales from time to time), and in my experience it's an extremely strong pick! The mega eating your Aeos energy is... unfortunate, but I get around that by playing hyper aggressive and just wiping out anyone on top path so that my ally can score easier. What’s more, there've been multiple times where I’ve ended up sitting in front of the enemy base and 1v5ing without dying, which makes me wonder: Why does no one else play this guy? The highest I got in ranked was ultra three on my old account (where mewtwo still put in decent work), but across both my accounts I’ve only ever seen another mewtwo x once. Is it actually just bad and I’ve only been playing bots or is Something else going on?

Need help improving a deck

I’m pretty new to yugioh and when I started playing on MD and Duelingbook, i decided to play shining sarcophagus since i saw a review on the archetype by TGSAnime a while back. The deck is ok but it really underperforms against meta decks (which surprises me since it over performs whenever my opponent plays offmeta) so I’d like advise on how the deck can be better against the meta stuff. Decks I see most often are branded, mitsurugi, kewl tune, and occasionally sky strikers or radiant typhoon, and I can’t play dominus impulse due to the attribute lock. Duelingbook deck list is included below
Main deck:
2 dark magician the magician of black magic
2 archfiends advent
3 ash blossom
2 berry magician girl
3 dark magician girl the magicians apprentice
3 effect veiler
3 gadget trio
2 moremarshmallon
3 silent magician zero
3 silent swordsman zero
1 gandora-g the dragon of destruction
3 future silence
1 harpies feather duster
1 magical stone excavation
3 shining sarcophagus
1 gaze of timaeus
1 ties that bind
2 turn silence
2 dark magic mirror force
2 stronghold the hidden fortress
3 super polymerization
2 droll and lockbird
Side deck
2 ghost belle
2 ghost ogre
2 mulcharmy fuwalos
2 mulcharmy purulia
Extra deck
2 dark magician girl the dragon knight
2 dark magician of destruction
2 dark magician the dragon knight
1 dark magician the knight of dragon magic
1 the dark magicians
1 dark paladin
2 ebon high magician
Total: 48 main deck, 8 side deck, 11 extra deck

Hand Trap timing

So I’m sure everyone is familiar with Ash Blossom, Droll and the relevant meta decks. However, I’m a new player and I don’t know what cards are cards that I should look at and immediately think “gotta ash that!” anyone have any tips on what cards are big ash/Droll targets?

Need cheap rpgs

As an avid fan of Octopath traveler 2 I need turn based rpgs to play before I finish deltarune( the alternative is just sitting through OT0, the absolute peak of mid IMO) please help and please keep it cheap because I... Am broke as hell. Currently I have access to a Switch 2 and a laptop, so games need to be available on the e-shop or steam (I’m not comfortable pirating games so please don’t recommend games that require that)

Obviously decent/broken, the question is how much

Picture is just a stock image I found online since I couldn’t find good card art. Main reason for brokenness is you can target extra monster zone to lock your opponent out of link summons or if it's a deck like elfnotes that cares about specific zones you can screw them over. Also, it's one less place to put a monster on their end board

Please rate my Octo 0 team

Just starting bestower of fame 2, managed to breeze through most of the game due to encountering a bunch of caits and getting over leveled. I’m pretty happy with my current setup but I’m open to advice on some improvements I could make

Looking for slow transformation books

This is a VERY niche trope as far as I know, but if anyone has any recommendations for books where MC starts human and has a detailed transformation into Something inhuman, I’d appreciate the recommendation. The only series I’ve found that fits that vibe is Bioshifter by Natalie Maher, though I had to stop that one early since the ending caused me to have a mental breakdown (read it, you’ll understand) I’d also appreciate fantasy books specifically, and since I know someone will say it, I have neither time to read nor access to the animorphs series. Thank you to anyone who replies!
