Ice Risers and Ice Blow are bad at the very beginning of the game due to Neku's low attack, but have high efficency than Shockwave, so they end up doing more damage end-game. Ice Risers/Blow also gets in the light puck bonus quicker, comes out fast and it juggles. The low power, low amount of uses and rather long charge time makes up for it and those pins are still good.

Sample Deck-
1. Piercing Pillar [S]
2. Shockwave [S]
3. Turbo Gauge +
4. Grave Marker [S]
5. Force Rounds [T]
6. Cure Drink [B]

First use the Piercing Pillar [S] pin to launch an enemy up with Turbo Gauge you can do this twice, then continue slashing to activate the Shockwave [S] pin and continue pushing enemies back. If you start slashing again you can activate Grave Marker [S] and once again keep enemies immobile. If an enemy is far away, or you’re waiting for something to reboot Force Rounds [T] will do some quick damage. The Cure Drink will provide HP recovery.

Looks good . Just a question though, do the Ice Blow and Ice Risers cause a frozen status to the "noise"? Or does it just inflict damage?

Thanks

They just do damage, but they knock enemies that it hits up.

The Piercing Pillar [S] psychs are useful because of there effect of pushing enemies back.

Alright, i get it then. How often are you going to make these? Like once a week or something?

I was thinking once a week, but maybe every 2 days or so, or when I can. I don't want to review too many in a short ammount of time but I don't want to take forever between each one.

I like my Ice Risers since it currently deals the most damage out of any pin in my deck (unless there is a car in the field for me to throw). I use it at the start of the battle and then use my other pins while it reboots. If I alternate between the other pins it works well, although the one use each reboot is annoying.

Once I find a more powerful attack with more than one use it's gone, but for the time being it serves its purpose.

I've only gotten Ice Blow out of those three. I don't really like it though; it's only got one hit and doesn't seem that powerful. I prefer pins that you can attack enemies with multiple times.

Ya Piercing Pillar was one I used in my deck for a while until I found some better pins. I'll construct a sample deck for people, cause there are ways to get more uses and faster reboot.

dang i was hoping there would be another riser pin that did more damage.
i liked em but the low damage and high reboot is offputting.
can we do pins that you tap enemies to shoot next?

Sample Deck:

1. Piercing Pillar [S]
2. Shockwave [S]
3. Turbo Gauge
4. Grave Marker [S]
5. Energy Rounds [S]
6. Cure Drink [B]

They're excellent pins for fighting piggies tbh.
The knock upwards is very handy!

Piercing Pillars [R] are alot better, because of there higher attack, and number of hits.

There are a few pins that make the reboot faster, and allow more uses.
And yes, we can do Energy Rounds [S] next.

To me, for now, this all seems so confusing but I suppose that as soon as I pick up the game it will all make sense.
