## Modifier

### **Silver Prize Fight**

**Tips & Tricks**

* **Offense**: This particular modifier is a great example of a snowball effect. If a side doesn't get debuffed for a long enough time, they'll get strong defensive buffs without any timers. AUTO-BLOCK especially can be rather annoying by cutting combos short, and BARRIER's extra health can make already tanky fighters even tankier. There are multiple ways to deal with this modifier:
	+ Debuff the hell out of the opponent. Both buffs are removed if the enemy gets inflicted with multiple debuffs, making it a normal fight again. For this purpose, Prototype is an excellent variant as her Blockbusters have a high chance of inflicting POWER SURGE.
	+ Remove the buffs. They aren't permanent, which means a buff removing move like Chaos Banish or Drill Tempered can make quick work of them, the former being especially effective due to the buff removal being guaranteed while also debuffing the opponent in the process, delaying the arrival of more modifier buffs.
	+ Beat them before it becomes a problem. Since the buffs need some time to come out, simply using brute force and finishing fights quickly can be effective. In this case it's good to have a back-up in case the snowball effect becomes too great to handle with brute force alone.

### **Gold Prize Fight**

**Tips & Tricks**

* **Offense**: This modifier offers an interesting risk-reward situation: While blocking a hit, there's a chance the blocker gains a stack of ENRAGE for 15 seconds. This gives the one who blocks more DPS to work with, making some fights easier. However, here's the catch: If you get to 5 ENRAGE stacks this way, half your health gets deleted and all the ENRAGE stacks get converted into GUARD BREAK, making the victim significantly easier to open up and finish off. This can be used to the player's advantage by constructing long blockstrings in the hope of getting the opponent to 5 ENRAGE stacks and sawing the enemy's health in half in the process. This gives the enemy a bunch of ENRAGE stacks to work with if it fails, but on high streaks this mostly just amounts to more chip damage. On the other hand, if the player finds themselves blocking a lot, it's very possible to trigger the modifier themselves and basically remove their current character from the game. Caution is advised.
* Variants that gain ENRAGE very easily like Sheltered, Thrill Shrieker and Infernal Twin can be detrimental, as gaining their ENRAGES makes it easier to turn the modifier against them if they get defensive. Thrill Shrieker's access to long blockstrings due to her character type makes it more worthwhile, but caution is very much advised while playing these variants.
* Characters with access to long blockstrings are superb at taking advantage of the modifier by continuously sending half of the opponent's health to the Shadow Realm. These characters include Squigly, Annie and Filia to name a few.

### **Diamond Prize Fight**

**Tips & Tricks**

* **Offense**: The modifier for Annie's Diamond tier Prize Fight promotes managing your health and finishing fights quickly in order to prevent getting STUNNED. Both sides will gain a timeless stack of POWER SURGE every 5 seconds while fighting the same opponent. Stacks gained will not go away unless either the variant uses a BLOCKBUSTER, gains 5 stacks (and gets STUNNED as a result), tags out or has a debuff cleansing ability. This makes healing and IMMUNITY prime targets for support in order to heal back damage taken from POWER SURGE or stopping the stacks from getting to 5 respectively.
* Debuff cleansers are natural picks for this Prize Fight as they can just cleanse their POWER SURGE stacks before they can become a problem. Summer Salt is especially great as her debuff cleanse is relatively easy to activate while still having a lot of offensive value.
* A strategy the player can use is to have two damage dealers in the team who can frequently tag out for each other when the POWER SURGE stacks are close to being a problem. Variants who can reduce tag cooldown can help with this, but as none of them are particularly great it's better to pick a more general support.
* Dream Band is a notorious defense fighter in this Prize Fight due to his insanely easy access to IMMUNITY, making him immune to the modifier. In order to counteract him the player can use a source of CURSE so he can't gain the IMMUNITY. Purrfect Dark is the prime candidate due to her CURSE being timeless, nullifying his Signature Ability entirely.

* **Defense**: Debuff cleansers and Immunity users thrive in this Prize Fight due to their ability to mostly ignore the modifier. Model Leader and Rose-Tinted both clear the team's debuffs every 20 seconds, which basically makes the team they're on immune to the modifier's Stun while they're alive. They also offer a good amount of defensive support aside from the cleanse. Dream Band as mentioned in the offense section has exceptionally easy access to Immunity on defense, allowing him to ignore the modifier while the player team gets worn down by it. Pairing him up with the two cleansers mentioned earlier will also patch up his main weakness, Curse, while supplying him with a couple of defensive buffs to reset constantly.
* Variants that can inflict Power Surge will make the modifier more harsh for the player team, as it substantially increases the rate at which they'll get stunned. Robo Fortunes with the DDOS Marquee Ability are brutal on defense because of this reason. Wunderkind, while not inflicting Power Surge reliably on defense, exacerbates the problems the Power Surge will cause by draining the player character's health and Blockbuster meter upon reaching 3 stacks.
