Apprentice Chef Deuce Card Analysis

Basics

To start with the basics, Deuce is a SR card. He’s a Defense unit, has a max HP of 12,344, and a max attack of 3,710. I'm just gonna address the elephant in the room first. His attack is atrocious. It's not the lowest attack for an SR unit, but it's still very low. His HP is high because of that as is the way these cards are balanced. His HP is actually closer to the SSR average than it is SR so that's extremely nice.

Spells

On the spells-side of things, he’s got Forest Strike and Fire Shot 2.

Exam Rankings

For exams, I’d give him a B for flora exams, X for fire, and F for water.

Skills

This card has damage cut. On spell 1 at level 1, he has a minor damage cut to foes for 1 turn. At level 5, it’s for 3 turns, and that's it.
He doesn't have anything on spell 2.

DUO Magic and Buddies

Deuce has Jamil with a modest power boost as a buddy. His other buddy is Sebek with a minor HP boost.

Build Guide

To Groovy Deuce, you’re gonna need 3 Spade Candy. Spell 1 requires green items and spell 2 red. I'd build spell 1 first. That skill upgrades and it's the only skill he has so like, yeah.

Comparable Cards

So let’s chat about similar cards to Apprentice Chef Deuce. First up is New Years Attire Cater. They're both defense, have the same spells, and have damage cut. The biggest con to this Cater is no shared buddies so that might affect teams. But still, he's pretty close to Deuce even down to fairly similar stats.
Another option is Apprentice Chef Grim. They're both defense, flora/water, and have Jamil as a buddy. Grim lacks damage cut which is his one con. But still, also a good comp to Deuce.

Teammates

So let's talk about potential teammates. Dorm Sebek will give this Deuce a buddy bonus, so yippee. Deuce can give buddy bonuses to Striped Ribbon Grim, Rabbit Ortho, and Labwear Malleus. Dorm Ace is another option that gets buddy bonuses from Deuce, and also Deuce activates his DUO Magic. Labwear Riddle gets a buddy bonus from Deuce and they also share Jamil as a buddy.

Final Thoughts

My favorite thing about this Deuce is his HP. He's within the top 25 highest HP in SRs at rank 25. He's going to provide some nice budget HP padding for teams, which ultimately I think is the best thing about this card.
