⚔ [07 Aug 2022] - 172th Raid Tournament - 3* Rush Attack, No Holy/ Yellow

Day 3:

O: 4-1 (12-3)
D: 9-0

Can’t believe i’m still in it. saw 5 trees today, 4 wins and a loss to close out the day to a defense that looked a lot like mine, but 2 trees instead of just one. won against a two tree defense in the next to last. it literally comes down to ‘did you get the green tiles to charge your Faiez (or Shrubbie, if you’re using him) or did you not?’

D still undefeated at 9-0. currently in 1% with 8392 points, rank 3325.

I will not be surprised if i am out on the first battle tomorrow. This tourney just seems like one big roll of the dice every time, did you get your tiles or not in the opening board. anyway, good luck on day 4 if you’re still in it!

This is worth reposting. For anyone who sees the trees as too OP, their kryptonite is a hero available in HA5! Congrats.

That happen to me as well in day 2 :rofl:. But I am a bit more lucky than you in that attack :sweat_smile:.




Me too :rofl:. I might go back to use my C Ulmer team.




Not exactly, Shrubbear alone can’t take that many Treevil hit. You need both Shrubbear and Faize to survive that.

Well you also need 7 green tiles pretty fast haha.

I’m just opting out of the 3* rush from now on.

There’s no skill to this now, it’s just who can fire Treevil first and the fact you need 7 tiles makes it just a starting board decides win or loss. I either win or score 0….

This is genuinely a rant, my actual first ever in Raid tournaments but I’m done with it. I apologise to those hitting my 3 Treevils too. There’s no fun to be had in this.

I’ll give myself a 4/10 as it’s polite, doesn’t blame rigged boards or greedy devs and has no swears.

I feel the same away after today - I lost them all vs Treevil´s tank, as he went off twice, and I couldn´t charge a single of my heroes. Rush is just…Rush. :confused: It´s so vital to be able to get those 7 tiles within the first few moves.

I’m not gonna lie, I found it to be the same before, but since I found out how to counter some fairly OP heroes in this tournament format (Tree and Faiez obviously), it’s definitely a lot easier to handle. Tbh I need 7 green tiles pretty fast to charge my Shrub and Faiez, what is very luck-dependent obviously. They are very needed in almost every offense team.
There is a lot of luck required as always in rush format and even with best counters, I can’t win everything, though 2 of my looses were actually my own mistakes in team composition, surprisingly.
I might go 1-4 tomorrow, who knows, it might happen.

Oh I have all the tools, all +20 and LB as well.

But you don’t get 7 tiles and it doesn’t matter at all which is where the frustration sets in.

I got a 0 against this pile of nonsense. Could not get a 7th tile in 3 of the colours I had so I just had to sit there and set them off again and again until I was dead.

There’s no skill there, it’s just “look at opening board and it decides whether you’ve won or lost”

Day 3 and went 5-0 despite facing 11 Trees :sweat_smile:

Attacked with a 4-1 team of Faiez - Maeve - Treevil - Maeve - CB Tyrum in all matches except the one with a Gramps tank where I used Faiez - Bauchan - Treevil - Waqas - cHawkmoon instead. Got my 7 tiles early in all so were easy wins. The toughest match was actually against an Aqeela flanked by 2 Treevils simply because of her dodge to her flanks. Once I could kill her, it was pretty simple.

Defense is 8-0 and somehow I’m in to Day 4 :stuck_out_tongue:

Day Offense Defense Score Def Score Total
1 3-2 2-0 (A) 1647 900 2547
2 7-3 6-0 (A) 4771 900 5671
3 12-3 8-0 (A) 8498 8498

Good luck everyone!

Do you really face total 11 Treevil today ? Could you post all those defense team ?

Oops. Didn’t get the tiles today. 1-2 and I’m out. One of those losses didn’t even have a tree.

See you next week!

Oh, that is probably that the most Treevil in a days I know :rofl:.

Treevil as a tank is difficult to kill. Two Treevils are very difficult to kill. But Treevil and Faiez are a whole different story. I encountered those two 3 times today. Combine them with a mediocre board and you’ll get killed instantly. I’m out.
I want Faiez!

And what about “Joukahainen + Treevil + Faiez” like this :rofl:

Joukahainen will destroy your Faize …if you have Faize :smile:.




Is that one this player ?

I face it today in 1st attack but my board is good :sweat_smile:.

I don’t even know what Joukahainen does. :stuck_out_tongue:
I have just checked and well, I don’t have either, I just have one sad Treevil.

Yes! The same one.

Good for you!

I wonder whether I get bad boards in tournaments or I choose wrong heroes or I play the board in a wrong way or everything combined^^. I rarely survive till Fridays, usually I’m out on Wednesdays… :thinking:

In fact, you can easily counter enemy Faize with CB Tyrum.

I really get good board in that attack. Purple diamond at start. My purple fire twice. It is very fast win. Even my greens don’t have a chance to fire :rofl:.

I also have both Faize and Shrubbear that make big different.

But who know I might get like what you get tomorrow :rofl:.

I used C. Tyrum and Belith, also Helo and Shrubbear. But I couldn’t charge them or that was just not enough. In those kind of tournaments you choose rainbow teams, 3+2 or mono? In this one I tried to choose heroes with the best skills, no matter their colour, but maybe I should stack colors more…

I’m out already day 3 and I’m out.

These 3* tournies are a great challenge, a lvl 40 can outdo a lvl 60/70 if the higher player made past mistakes….feed, feed, feed
Which is kind of why I enjoy these 3* events.

You can also take cBelith along with Faiez if you are facing Joukahainen, and then he just does damage if you can get them both charged first… big if.
