readier
Better set up
Readier is the comparative form of ready, indicating a greater degree of preparedness or willingness than something else.
If you are readier than your opponent, you are more prepared to act or respond.
She was readier for the interview than she had been for any previous one.
The form *more ready* is also acceptable, though readier appears in both formal and informal contexts.
