My aching blood! +10 Odin Showcase

Hey Reddit!

I wanna show you my first +10 - Odin. A bit unconventional perhaps, but he's a lot of fun to use! I decided to focus on Blarblade and his good/decent bulk

IVs: +Atk/-Res, would actually like to get +Spd -HP (Not +Atk? Are you mad? Nah, Blarblade does enough. +Spd lets me dump the speed seal for something nicer.)

Weapon - Blarblade:

Kind of a given for him, I also have Owl (With MCorrin!, for +8 to everything) but no matter how bulky or fast he is, he just doesn't hit very hard without a special or multiple Drive Atks. The problem with the Owltome set is that he is so fast he doesn't get doubled, meaning he can't get a 1 round Bonfire to secure a kill.

Special - Aether: I need points, and he actually pulls it off more often than I thought he would.

A - Close Counter:

Odin has good bulk because of his HP, and it lets him enemy phase dragons and armors that would otherwise roast him. Wouldn't switch this out, ever

B - Def/Res Link:

Tried for Tharja and ended up getting both the other focuses, Def/Res Link is very much the cornerstone of this build as my entire team carries Reposition, this can both be used both offensively and defensively. Odin has okay mixed defenses backed up by his HP bulk and decent speed, so he can live through a lot and even fire off an Aether for more sustain.

C - Odd Atk Wave:

Effectively +12 attack on Odd turns, I much prefer Even because combat mostly happens on Turn 2, but its nice nonethless.

Seal - Speed +3:

Would like to get +Spd IV so I can run a different seal, perhaps Close Defense or QR or something.

Now this was my GC/Brigades/VG/whatever set, which I also run in case I DON'T have a mixed team. If I do have a mixed team (My Arena core is Camilla/Ares/Odin, so it is mixed) I run Tactics Emblem to support Odin instead. In that case, Odin runs this build, which drops his self-buffing as he doesnt need it.

Honestly, the Tactics team is 100x more reliable because there is no need for me to play with turns/repositioning to buff Odin. Camilla carries both Atk and Def Tactic, Ares has Speed, and whoever is bonus runs Res. Odin alternatively also has Res Tactic just in case.
