Pretty easy 5-0 start to the tournament. 4 of the 5 defenses had a healer in it.
Used an attack team of Anastasia - tCaedmon - tCyprian - c2Li Xiu/tLi Xiu - Greg. Switched Li Xiu to the Wizard version whenever an extra dispeller is needed. Faced 2 tCyprian tanks but not flanked by Toons so a bit easier to counter. Haven’t needed to bring the Shark in.
I started with an 4-1. Lost against a team with two Zhou Lus with two other minion summoners and a Greg. There were a few too many minions to make head and tails of what was going on exactly at several points of the fight. I don’t expect very much from this tourney since there are quite a few heros missing in my roster that would be very good here.
5-0 on the 2nd day as well. Much tougher teams today, though only 1 full Toon team.
Switched the attack teams a bit more today. Core is still Anastasia, tCyprian, and Greg with who flanks tCyprian depending on the defense. Used 2 Reds in c2Colen and tGormek against a 3 Green defense, and brought in Shar’Khai for the first time in the last match against a tLi Xiu tank flanked by tBoril and tCyprian. Was a bit lucky in the last match that I could kill her and the flanks before they could fire.
Toughest defense faced was probably the 2nd one which had both Glass Caedmon and Glass Grimm. As mentioned above, they bypass tCyprian and neighbours’ riposte. They also have a chance of reflecting the spreading Bleed from Greg’s Mega Minion, but I believe the risk was worth it.
4-1 again today, or 24.9/25 if we are counting heroes killed. Such is bloody! Defense started 2-0, currently 7-3, yet was 2-2 at the time of counting. Feeling a bit unlucky overall, but still decently well positioned for the week.
The offense went better today, so that I am at 9-1. There were two very close battles against toon/glass teams, but thankfully I managed to squeeze through.
As good as the offense is going so bad is the defence doing with 1-8 at the moment.
Day 1 was annoying, i simply got no tiles and kept getting hit, but did ALMOST win, i killed 2 and took most of the health down for the others - I think Li Xiu + Colen ruined me.
Today was weird, I genuinely thought at least 2 or 3 i would lose, and honestly almost quite 1 or 2 because of the lack of tiles, but I somehow won everything.
Another 4-1 for me, so an 8-2 in offense so far.
One fight against LB2 toons I managed with some luck to win, another one went the other way round.
Defense now at 5-0, so should be AA then.
Another loss today, against a maxed and memblemed Caedmon that annihilated my LB1 Caedom and Toon Lie Xiu but lucky to have survived bloody Wednesday. Overall:
O: 13-2
D: 2-0 (A)
As feared, the glass costumes reflected the Spreading Bleed from Greg’s Mega Minion. But that same Mega Minion also proved to be the saviour by both absorbing the Bleed damage as well as slashing the remaining defenders while I ghosted tiles on the right.
The other 4 matches were not as tight, but tough nonetheless. Took more time than usual selecting heroes to counter the defense and in moving tiles, and it paid off with more wins. Stayed with a 2-1-1-1 attack, bringing in Abacus Gormek once against a cMielikki tank. In 2 of the matches, got a Yellow diamond from the first move and Anastasia’s fiends did the rest.
