Emblem Ike Builds and Best IVsComment

What is the best premium fodder C Skill for Emblem Ike? I want to make him as tanky and overpowered as possible. Willing to sacrifice any unit to give for him.

I'm also not sure how i missed that he has distant counter built in 🤦🏼‍♂️. I had just finished making a few runs using him, & we wasn't countering, so that's what made me post that. Looking back, i guess it had to be staff units that he wasn't countering against...?🤷🏼‍♂️

>>1 ahh, nevermind, i had been using him without laguz friend. Now, i see that it gives him his special no matter what, & makes ths opponents attack first (i already knew his special did this, but it wasn't always active for me, & i guess it only activated when i was attacked).

Would a near/far save not be useful on E!Ike since he works best on defense? That, or a counter seal on him? I haven't used him against top tier people yet, because I'm still unlocking all his skills.
