Best Team Comps for Giant Surprise

Mario

Hero Sparks Role
MarioMario StarburstStarburst Mario's Dual Slingers allow him to keep his distance, allowing him to attack both the Giant Depleter and the other enemies in this stage. Investment in Mario's Technique Skill Tree, particularly Additional Hero Sight Charge and Hero Sight Cooldown Skill make him an offensive threat during enemy turns. Starburst and Exosphere improve Mario's Offense and defense respectively.

Luigi

Hero Sparks Role
LuigiLuigi VampastraVampastra Luigi will offer long-distance support, which will help draw the attention of the Flamin's Stooges and Ghostly Walkers. Similar to Mario, Luigi's Steely Stare can provide coverage during the enemy's turn especially if you invest in Additional Steely Stare Charges. Use Vampastra to heal when needed, and Reflector to reduce any damage aimed at you.

Rabbid Peach

Ugh, I hate coming here looking for walkthroughs. The last step being simply "defeat the enemy!" is not a walkthrough!
