Art director Nicholas Maxson-Francombe acknowledged the burgeoning anime rivalry, saying there&#8217;s &#8220;constant posts of the score constantly going up between the two.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I dove into the X timeline to see if I could reconstruct the ongoing DPS race.

Paris <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SandfallEorys\/status\/1915678760185061684\" target=\"_blank\">appeared in the replies<\/a> as though summoned by the emergence of a worthy challenger.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Are you in NG+ ? I won&#8217;t say a lot but there might be something out here to do more than this,&#8221; Paris said. &#8220;I&#8217;m the current holder of the record at the studio so I&#8217;m watching out for my throne you know.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Undaunted by Paris&#8217;s omen, BltzZ11 and fellow contender Schrodingersba4 entered the laboratory to concoct a build that could unseat Sandfall&#8217;s champion. First, Schrodingersba4 crossed the 688 million threshold. Then, BltzZ11 dropped a screenshot of a staggering 1.1 billion damage attack.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Parry this,&#8221; Paris said, almost tripling BltzZ11&#8217;s numbers with his standing record: a <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SandfallEorys\/status\/1917250403298599387\" target=\"_blank\">3.2 billion damage attack<\/a>.
