SS Brendan naturally draws comparisons to SS Kris because both raise team SpAtk, Crit, SpDef, and SMUN. But where his praiseworthy individuality comes in is with his teamwide Free Move Next and with his condensed 1/1 TM. The latter is what gets highlighted in this showcase, and allows you to take the Half Ally MP parameter while still giving the team +4 SpAtk, +4 SpDef, +3 Crit, and 2 SMUN stacks. The nature of the condensed TM also grants him the liberty to actually get to work clicking Luster Purge twice to further intensify ally damage output, as opposed to spending separate turns buffing the team with trainer moves. His Head Start 1 grid tile also assists in preserving ally SMUN and Free Move Next against the pressure to attack created by Half Ally MP, as can be seen when I decide to skip Lance’s action on the 2nd round of ally actions to play around Blizzard.
