You can't put swan on fishes anymore 😡😔

Arrainoas a good pick but I doubt it'd be able to land enough hits with the cupuere giggling around

^^^^ yeah, cupuere is still faster than aqox even with water gale

I just thought swan still worked but I guess not

A smart cupu would give themselves a defensive ststus plushie and be unkillable

However, if you’re against a cupu that isn’t doing that, poison and burn are the only things thag can touch it. you want to prioritize low bite cooldown OR lots of statuses, and ideally already have one or both of those statuses WITHOUT having to add plushies, that way you can uh. add more plushies. (:

You also want to not need oxygen, otherwise the cupu can just stall out the fight until you need to go up for air, then menu.

You won’t mind getting hit by it, but it attacks really slow, so i wouldn’t recommend relying on defensive ailments.

Cupuere: 185 sprint speed, 80 swim speed, 135 stamina, 35% block injury, 100% block bleed, 50% block poison

Slaiorn: 2 poison attack + radiation + 3 defensive poison, slightly below normal bite cooldown (.7) . a drawback is that it has only 148 sprint speed, but if you get enough hits on it before it runs away, the cupu will run out of stamina due to the poison and be forced to fight you. i would put on two pig lantern plushies for this, more poison could be redundant.

Zwevalisk: a slightly worse version of slaiorn in this case

Any anklebiter with no oxygen bar + burn or poison plushies, i guess? maybe with defensive paralysis and other statuses, like gryvilla. hp REALLY isn’t an issue

You can’t brute force it well, or efficiently stack it with injury, so i would just stick to what i recommended

Sticky fur boosts bite by 65%, it’ll be hard to stack ailments without it just leaving

Slaio would be good if it wasn't heavily out paced

Cupuere counters aqox, try it by yourself

Literally nothing. as there shouldnt be

Nah I’d win
