Quick Summary

I cooked up this team during the LCB Regular Check-up BokGak event to make use of the bonus event currency IDs with a team I had on hand... which happened to be Heishou-Rupture themed. It is not optimal or easy by any means but I found it an interesting setup to try. Not as serious as other builds I make, but i think Variety is spice of life.
This team revolves around the EGO [Gregor] AEDD, which provides the unique status

Spark Discharge. It has several Rupture

Rupture units that have powerful, nearly garunteed gloom skills, making their attacks Rupture

Rupture neutral or higher. It is intended to be used in Boss Encounters and Miniature Dungeons first and foremost, with limited applications in other content. Other EGO listed are merely suggestions based on resources and status application.

Usage

The main goal with this team at the start is to acrew as many Gloom and Envy resources as possible so that [Gregor] LCE E.G.O:: AEDD can use [Gregor] AEDD as soon as possible. Alternatively, use Superbia to apply

Spark Discharge Immediately on the first or second turn while the rest of your heishou setup.
On the same turn that [Gregor] AEDD is used and

Spark Discharge is applied, you must either retreat a Heishou unit via [Hong Lu] The Lord of Hongyuan's counter skill, have [Yi Sang] LCE E.G.O:: Lantern killed, or both. Any option with bring in [Don Quixote] Heishou Pack - Wei Branch, who will open up the following turn with an S3 against the

Spark Discharge'd enemy that will immediately kickstart your Rupture

Rupture stack in tandem with [Ryōshū] Drifting Blade of Hongyuan for the rest of the fight. Other Backup units exist to make use of a pre-existing rupture stack to finish the fight quickly should they be substituted in. Remember the basic rule of Rupture stacking: It is better for an ID to do nothing on a turn if doing otherwise would prematurely ruin a stack.

TL;DR

Use [Gregor] AEDD with Gregor. Make sure an ID is retreated or killed the same turn it is used. [Don Quixote] Heishou Pack - Wei Branch subs in and bonks the enemy for a lot of rupture application. Use your gloom skills as long as

Spark Discharge is active. Use [Gregor] AEDD as often as possible from then on.
