The deeper you get into GBF, the more you’ll start to realize that a lot of content demands specialized setups. As you get stronger and stronger, your toolbox increases, and it can be tough to have an idea of which tools to bring to which scenario.

I often recommend players look up setups, but beyond just glancing at Advanced Grids on the wiki, the proccess of finding them can often be nebulous and hard to understand, especially for a non-Japanese speaker.

Usually when looking for something, I begin my search on YouTube. Most good setups tend to have a reference video to go along with them, and you can often find “B-Tier” setups as well from players missing core pieces.

I also recommend you use the shown setup as inspiration. Just because someone recorded the setup and put it on youtube doesn’t immediately make it good. Furthermore, no setup is immutable, and most of the time you can make reasonable facsimiles that will perform just as well. This should be your starting point, not the end goal.

Anyway, in this post I’ll provide you with a small tutorial on what keywords you should be searching on YouTube to find what you need.
