I run 18-5 Z-hard exclusively now for gems. I essentially only play the round if I see Pilaf spawn. No Pilaf? I'll abandon and try again. I don't think it's worth running through for a measely possible 1-3 gems by Whis.

Obviously knowing that one of the corner ? pads brings you to a different path is helpful for step calculations. I'll do my best to land on Pilaf.

I can't play all the time, so there will be stretches of hours where I don't play. That's why I don't mind abandoning a few rounds and only playing the ones that guarantee Pilaf. I can easily get 50+ gems a day this way.

Team: Teq Jaco and Agl Golden Frieza for stun and block are essential to surviving without using too many items. The rest of my characters are either strong PHY or big hitters.
