Gangrel: Plegia's Mad King Strategy

Watch Out for Debuffs!

Several enemy units on the map have ways to debuff your entire team, like Panic Ploy 3 and Chill Atk 3.

Be mindful of how your units are positioned and what buffs they are giving to each other.

Alternatively, you can use a skill like Harsh Command+ to cancel out the debuffs.

Watch Out for Gangrel's Special!

Gangrel's Special will be triggered when he attacks, possibly one-shotting your unit. As much as possible, defeat him first with a melee unit.

Use Flying Units

This map has several forests that may make navigating a little difficult. Using flying units will help with this, and since there's no bow unit on the map, there's no fear of any weapon effectiveness.

Use Units That Cancel Debuffs

There are some units that nullify debuffs by themselves, so it's very useful to put them in your party. Such units include Fallen Ike, Idunn, and Legendary Chrom.
