    I wouldn't call SR Naoe Kagetsuna "really popular". She's perhaps important to a regeneration heavy build, and the only SR general that gets used much at endgame. But she's hardly essential, and she's never been a regular part of my team.

    Personally, I build heavily for speed and damage. If someone else builds heavily for speed and damage, I'll probably have more speed and more damage and win. Aargaez is the most notable other high speed, high damage player, though it is what a lot of players try for to some degree, perhaps partially because it clears most PVE content the fastest.

    In PVP, some people build instead for reflect damage. Rimuru is perhaps the purest reflect damage build among strong players, though EarthCrimson and Temp lean pretty heavily in that direction, too. I tend to lose to a strong reflect-heavy player, as I might hit for 20k troops, which instant-kills my general from reflect damage, while their general survives because of Takenaka Hanbei or some such.

    Reflect-heavy builds are vulnerable to builds that go very heavy on regeneration or lifesteal with more moderate damage. A heavy reflect damage build relies on killing high damage players with reflect damage, but the reflect damage doesn't kill a moderate damage player who can regenerate to compensate for the reflect damage. That's how TruelyNice beat Temp in the finals of the daimyo tournament two weeks ago.

    But someone building too heavily for regeneration and lifesteal is open to being destroyed by a high speed, high damage build. Regeneration and lifesteal don't help if you're getting one-shotted. That's why last week, even though TruelyNice was the defending daimyo, I wiped out his entire team in the tournament before he even got to attack.

    There is some degree of rock/paper/scissors to it, and winning daimyo depends substantially on luck of drawing opponents you match up well against while avoiding the ones you don't.
    It does look like Rock/Paper/Scissor. I wonder what good build suits me. Oh well, time will tell. Thanks for the info, Master Semaphore *bows*

    Guess I need to hunt gets some regen then. Thanks again.

    Edit: Tried to look for Mononofu wikia / guide but seem to be incomplete. I found this item at Arena and curious what this Bullhorn Helmet do.
