Anyone want to give odds on PoG weekly being “defeat 25 Ludwigs in tournament”? :stuck_out_tongue:

the Tweedles seem to like Ludwig quite nicely. Of course, my luck I wont get a single dark shield to match

Everyone is gonna have Ludwig + Alfrike. Such a boring format.

However, some people don’t have Ludwig…

The weird thing about no holy rush, I never actually use Holy on my offensive team anyway so it doesn’t bother me. I usually go with a purple/green combo, which sometimes works nicely.

I dont have lots of good slow heroes to use so i will just use my raid defense team i think

I’m almost considering putting Thalassa as tank just to annoy people who are using mindless attack and especially Alfrike on the offense. I really don’t like this tournament format because it’s even more predictable than 3* rush.

Something like this:

Would like to somehow fit in LotL though, she usually works pretty well in vfast.

…and that’s why I always combine my Alfrike with LB2 cSabina :wink:

Good team, but (for Rush) I would still consider another tank…

And that’s why Ukkonen is there to prevent dispels :smiley:

…but unfortunately (or fortunately) he does not prevent buff blocking :wink:
Although people often underestimate 4* heroes, so they may simply not take Sabina against your defense.

1 Like

Yeah, there’s that. Reflect is one option but there’s only so many spots available in a team. Maybe I should replace one of the dunes heroes or Celimene with LB2 Kitty.

Here is my roster if you have any ideas for my lineup

You have plenty of good heroes, but unfortunately no one with a mindless attack. For me, the best tank would definitely be Hel, but she doesn’t have any LB, so she’s probably too fragile for this position. Maybe Ludwig? Passive, but with good flanks he can do a lot.
(In general, it is difficult to set up a defense with heroes that you do not fight on a daily basis.)
And I would still put Kalo on one of the wings, even though he’s only 4*, but he can cause quite a stir during Rush.

1 Like

Yeah sadly, I seem to struggle with purple aethers because I have too many heroes needing them, 4* and 5*. I have 2x Rigard and each costume Lb2, I think they used too many.

For Hel, I only have 21/35 Aether 1, for example, then would want her costume doing too. Maybe I should focus on her next for my purple to LB…
i want to try out Frog Prince on my defense for Rush, but if I use MoNo and kalo, then FP is too many green

Maybe it’s naive, but during Rush I usually don’t care about colors - special skills are much more important. If you wanted to use MN, I would be more concerned about the lack of “cleanse” (Kravekrush is definitely much more popular after the last SE - although those who had more souls took better cards :thinking: ).
I don’t know if having Fizzcoil on LB1, this FP is so necessary, because he doesn’t have any LB yet…

Haha :joy: the most fun of rush tournament

Waterpipe, LoL for mana control and Marjana C1-Marjana C2-Khufu for damage. Works well so far. Haven’t encounter any lunar heroes so far
