Prepare Sujimon with Cool Attribute

Recommended Sujimon
Bogus Bunny (Evolves into →)	Wipeout Warrior (Evolves into →)	Jaws of Death
Beach Baller (Evolves into →)	Basket Case (Evolves into →)	Stress Tester
Campain Cruncher (Evolves into →)	Scarred Yakuza (Evolves into →)	Forsaken Samurai

Ace, the third of the Discreet Four, will have a Sujimon team focused on the Blaze attribute. Sujimon that have the Frost attribute will have an advantage over this type so make sure to prepare the appropriate team.

If you can't build a team with high rarity, you can evolve Sujimon from a lower rarity and use that instead. We recommend having Bogus Bunny and Beach Baller as indicated in the table above since these can deal enough damage especially once they reach their final evolution.

Sujimon List: All 150 Sujimon

Obtain Frost Type Sujimon At The Resort Gym

Obtain Cool attribute Sujimon by taking on trainers at the Resort Gym where you fought against Queen. You can get gachas at the same price and tickets as regular gachas, so collect tickets by fighting against other trainers.

Take On Managers To Get More Tickets

Take on managers you fought previously by having a rematch with them. Managers tend to give out more tickets than rival trainers in town, allowing you to obtain more gacha.

Ace's Disciple's Team (Average Level of 26)

Dojo Disgrace Lv.27	Bad Cop Lv.25	Hotstepper Lv.26
Groundsreaper Lv.25	Hateful Hakkeyoi Lv.28

Ace's Captain's Team (Average Level of 28)

Feast 'n Flyer Lv.27	Penalty Boxer Lv.28	Gainz Chaser Lv.30
Freakalele Lv.29	Oiled Baron Lv.30

Ace's Team (Average Level of 29)

Sturmworm Lv.28	Pandora's Boxer Lv.30	Abstracted Defiance Lv.28
Sparkle Juggernaut Lv.30	Swolympiad Lv.28	Dosukoi Gigantes Lv.30

Switch Between Sujimon So That Swolympiad Won't Keep Attacking

Swolympiad has attacks that consume a lot of SP that deal high damage even if he isn't low on HP. Your party can easily get wiped out if Swolympiad attacks every turn but you can counteract this by switching Sujimon so that Ace's Blaze or Natural Sujimon attack instead.

Ace will prioritize attacking your weak points, so having Sujimon with Cool or Natural Attributes can help in blocking Swolympiad's attacks. Cool attributes deal significant damage since this has an advantage over Blaze while Natural attacks won't deal much damage.

Substory Rewards

Get 10 Committee Agents After the Battle

After defeating Ace, a Commitee Agent will appear at the entrance of the resort. If you talk to him, you will receive 10 Committee agents which you can use to awaken Sujimon.
