[05th Apr, 2020] 50th Raid Tournament - 5* Buff Booster, No Green/Nature

Nope, only one of them is leveled. Got QoH, Guin, Kunchen on +18 node but no big snipers. All my snipers are not emblemed or green. lol

Time for Isarnia to shine. The more buffs you layer on, the more damage she will do ;). Plus no greens!

Hopefully Magni doesnā€™t hold me back too much- he should be ok for this setting though.

Iā€™d swap Drake and Grazul - she buffs, which boosts Isarnia damage, Drake doesnā€™t.
Plus in attacking defences, healer wings are ineffective.

Ideally leave Marjana at homeā€¦ No buffs and no punishment for the expected blue stack.

Magni is a good choice - good attack and adds a buff.

Ok great thanks, I have done this.
I have 3 sets of 4* troops for my Ice/Blue heroes, only one is a Mana Troop - who would you suggest giving it to? Miki?
Ravager Warriors (mana troop) = Level 8
Imperial Knight Lords = Lvl 6
Imperial Knight Lords = Lvl 4

Total Team Power with this setup is 3923.

Not sure any of my dark options make more sense there. Sartana+7, Kunchen+17, Panther, Dom, even Proteus+20. My thinking is that rogues are good in a corner and if she tempts people to bring blue so much the betterā€¦

The thing is, thereā€™s no punishing blues unless Mitsy has her special upā€¦ Even then, thereā€™s several dispellers (including in blue) and tiles will still wreak havoc.

Itā€™s brave to encourage blue with how many buffers there are in blueā€¦ But good luck with it :slight_smile:

Fair point though would Sonyaā€™s debuff work against Mitsuko? In any case which of the purple options would you put there? Iā€™m not a fan if Kunchen in the corner. Sartana would be ok but would panther be better with her dispell 3?

I plan to use this training.

Sorry youā€™re right, it shouldnā€™tā€¦

Tbh Iā€™d probably go for Panther but either Panther or Sartana would work.

Sonya does not add debuff anything to opponent, she dispell/clear opponent buff, and yes Mitsuko reflect including dipeller from blue.

I confirm that Mitsuko reflects Sonyaā€™s skillā€¦ I learned that lesson painfully, when I used Sonya to try and dispel Mitsukoā€™s blue reflect. Poor Sonya got murdered, and three months later she still refuses to talk to meā€¦ :slight_smile:

Right thatā€™s what I meant. Thanks for the correction.

In The Endā€¦I think Iā€™m going with this: 2 fast purple wings 'cause yellow has no dispellers + Mitsy for buff and counter blues stacksā€¦hoping my Ariel could hold the center :sweat_smile:

Since Vela is stuck at 3-70, this is what Iā€™ve come up with:

Iā€™m hoping that Fridaā€™s Paladin Def buff and Magniā€™s Def buff at Fast speed will keep them going until Rigard can get the heals startedā€¦ and incidentally, +88% Attack once Rigard fires, too. :wink:

Element Link from Frida gives +NatureDef (useless in this case), but adds an undispellable +20% attack for 4 turns to the three Ice heroes nonetheless.

I tend to prefer Ursena closer to the middle so she fires when the other team is more fresh to do her maximum damage, but with the No-Green rule, she just isnā€™t as durable (that is, sheā€™s vulnerable to stacking) as any of the Blue heroes, so I donā€™t want to make it easier for someone to punch a hole in the middle or flanks.

Other option was to put Kunchen in there somewhere, but that just reduced the damage too much. Rigard Costume is wicked strong for a 4* and gives +48% attack from the special itself, and another +40% for applying two buffs to my heroes. I think that is better than Kunchenā€™s bigger single-shot heal and -Def to enemies.

Good gaming!

Youā€™ll need to put emblems on for that :+1:

Looks good otherwise, not sure about Ursena wing but depends what else you have.

Iā€™m torn between Boril and Richard (no costume, though). Both arenā€™t heavily emblemed. Decided to put Boril as a tank at the moment, since he, well, buffs. And he can be pain in the ***.

Richard is the beefier tankā€¦ Boril at flank will probably still fire and buff Richard.

Richards attack debuff will overwrite an enemy attack buffā€¦ That may or may not be timed well enough to remove a buff, but itā€™ll make a difference.

I dont think special attacks are color sensitive. Pretty sure Marj on defense does the same special attack damage to blue heroes and green heroes.

I think Grazul and Magni are my only 5* heroes with buffs unfortunately. Lol had no luck after so many pulls getting telluria but I suppose she isnt even in this tournament.

Itā€™s more that two red heroā€™s encourages heavy blue stack and thereā€™s no strong hero to blue tiles - thatā€™s what I mean by no punishment for blueā€¦

Itā€™s basically gifting a weak target to the attackers blue stackā€¦ bringing one you can get away with a bit, especially if it brings buffs.

Bringing a yellow encourages attacker to bring dark, which would then be weak against a dark hero on defence.
With Drake, thereā€™s currently no punishment for bringing dark tile damage - so makes sense to balance out with a dark if you have one?
