Wow, congrats on getting Wise Oracle from the ticket!

LRs were introduced about 5-6 months ago and are now RRs in addition to the occasional summon; 1 copy for top 500, 2 copies for top 100. Some are very OP but they’re not really the norm since they have such a high deck cost. You’re not going to be able to easily fit more than 1 into your team if the rest is GUR unless you’ve upgraded your castle past level 10 to build additional barracks.

Custom skills are 3rd skills that you can create with materials from the EH panels and equip to LR cards. Here's a video example of making and using a 3 star one.

Abyssal archwitch hunts are a new type of mini event that usually takes place around the end of the month. You basically try to reach the highest damage you can with 50 cards in the Thor deck, using a combination of booster cards (usually the event and summon cards from that month) and high attack cards. Video of last month's AAW hunt.

New levels of EH were added a couple of months ago, including advanced+. The main witch has high defense and 20 million hp. Plus, the elemental waves are so strong that they’ll knock an off element max defense GUR down to several thousand hp in one hit. The servants have nulls and aoes too. The simplest way to get through advanced+ is to try to turnskip your way through the whole fight. Even then things can go badly if RNG doesn't favor you and you can't get a turnskip early.

Overkilling in EH is still the best source of points although the highest points have shifted from using salvo teams in advance to salvo/multihit combo teams in intermediate. Attempts to overkill in advanced+ still fall short of the 360-370k points per fight you can get from 15 million overkill in intermediate; the highest I’ve been able to reach so far is 342k.
