I hate the grandmaster

I've got him down to 17%. I've been trying for 3 days now. Farming arenas day in and day out to collect enough units for team revives only to go in and take 2 or 3% of his health because he will NEVER EVER EVER throw his sp1. That's it he just doesn't. I'm honestly a hairs length away from quitting this game altogether bruh

Don't give up!
It's a tough fight but definitely worth the struggle! Get ready to party when you beat him!
Also, do you start baiting immediately after he gets a bar of power? If you wait until he is closer to two, it’s much harder to time the baiting properly. Also, it’s almost always worth failing one of his prompts in order to properly bait the special 1 and avoid the sp2. Some people hate to get a single token of blunder, but instead just get fully KOed.
Maybe talk through it a bit with us, and keep plugging! The first time at any big fight can always be tough, but it should get better!
Keep it up, Summoners!
Will be waiting for when you beat him. May your rewards bless you
I'd be curious to see what team you're working with too. As others said, a specific champ and some potions might be better off than a team revive. For me, Doom was throwing major damage. But also at the reverse control phase, I went with buffed Juggs so I could get through more than one grandmaster special cycle. I only revently went back and explored this thanks to buffed juggs. He really helped make this fight enjoyable compared to when I first met him and he took my lunch money. Don't give up now that you're this close - just pretend you're still in an eternity of pain (which it might feel like right now, but you'll be so happy and relieved when it's finally over).
I’ve been fighting the GM lately on my quest to explore Act 6, and what @Squirrelguy is telling you is right. When I am struggling to bait his SP1, I vary things up. I dash back, then push him back to his corner and create space, I’ll leave myself open for a second while preparing to evade, etc.
The GM is going to try to catch you off guard with his specials, so if you’re going to play things safe by blocking and dexing in the corner then you’re not going to get the result you need.
High risk high reward.
At this point you got him, get into his head, tell him "Alright big fellaaa, show me what you got" when you dex his attack, give him a laugh and tell him "is that all you can do" that will apply a taunt on him, trust me he will throw sp1s like crazy. You are on top of it. He is already down when he entered the 3rd phase and he knows it.
Good luck mate.
Personally I remember Hyperion did it for me. Lots of patience and take a break if you need it.
Don't play any arena, nothing for a day, then come back fresh to try again.
Do not quit, you can do it.
First account, burned through ~25 stashed revives and like 900+ units worth of revives and health pots.
Second account, used about 10 revives, no units required.
Moral of the story, once you get practiced at it, it becomes much easier.
I really wish there was a way to practice the different phases of this fight other than having to burn through all your revives and units.
