Ace Of The Day
The Ace of the Day system is meant so that people using generic piloting objects to run a scene, instead of their own characters, have options for what kind of opponent they would like to run without overloading staff with requests. When a player requests the use of a temporary, generic bit, they also request which Ace of the Day build they would like assigned to it.
Unlike players, Aces of the Day have generic proficiencies, and are a B in any unit they are given. They are otherwise all built as Expert-tier pilots.
Below are the current Aces of the Day. This list will be updated as new ones are created or old ones are updated for new additions to Kantaisen!
List of Aces of the Day
Brave Ace
This ace is a morale build with a come-from-behind spirit. They do best when they take a hit or two and then turn it around. With Spirit (and Detonate) available, they use Defiance and Blocking for defense, and Prevail and Ace Attacker for offense.

Melee Ace
This ace is a melee-focused build. They expect to get in and get punching; they'll probably take a hit or two on the way in, and they accept this. Accurate close-in and with Blocking to improve the Parry they almost certainly have on their robot and enable Intercept while engaged, they use Precision Attacker to break down defenses and Ace Attacker to keep themselves pumped up.

Old Soldier Ace
This ace is ready to go from the start of a battle. All their abilities are built-in passives, including a heaping helping of Instant Hero. All their SCs except Daunt are self-focused. They do everything well but don't have any fancy tricks that activate later in a fight.

Oppressive Ace
The Oppressive Ace's game plan is to not let their opponent do their game plan. Clarity lets them take the lead in an extended engagement to make up for their average accuracy stats, and between Pressure and SP Regen they have a lot of SP to work with. With Pressure, Disruptor and Enervator, they hit their opponent and try to keep them locked down so that they can push their way to victory, using Alert and Strike to cover for their moderate accuracy until Clarity activates.

Sniper Ace
This ace is a ranged-focused build. Despite the name, this build works well with any ranged-heavy unit, not just snipers; anyone who would rather not get up close can use this build. They are very accurate and uses SP Regen-powered Valor to boost the critical rate; once a crit has been secured, Analyst and Disruptor keep the target on the back foot.

Speedy Ace
This ace is all about speed. Accurate and difficult to hit, they don't put out a whole lot of damage... until they get hit, when their damage starts to ramp up as they fail to keep ahead of the shots.

Strategist Ace
This ace is more than just a fighter. They will perform best with allies thanks to Commander and free-target SCs, and have dynamic hit effects that are best utilized by a group. SP Regen keeps them able to use the SCs, and makes them more affordably usable on themselves in a pinch. This build is suitable for squad-leaders.

Support Ace
The Support Ace is here to help! Using Charisma, they definitely perform best in a group, but aren't necessarily concepted like the leader (that's Strategist Ace). Even with SP Regen to fuel expensive SCs, they are only average combatants on their own.
