Last week was in the mountains, so tourney was not my highest priority, but this one should be fun. I was thinking going with a blue tank because I have couple of nice red options to go with double red behind. :slight_smile:

Thoughts?

Other options that could be considered:

I used c.Renfeld in one rush tourney, and scores were good. Also I have c.Hawkmoon+7, but I believe Grevle as a healer and my other red options are better rn.

Hello, Slobix.

I missed you in the last tournament. I’m sure you could have got a good result. Hope you had a wonderful time in the mountains. :wink:

I’m not particularly friend of passive (semi passive in case of Kvasir, as the minions deal little damage) tanks and it turns me mad when there’s no colour restriction. I’d use the costume Gunnar as a tank if I had to choose, as there are less cleansers than dispellers, and if you combine him with Grevle, Melia and Bauchan, it could be hard to beat.

I’m not an expert, but that’s the choice I’d make. :man_shrugging:t4:

First travel in a year, it was really great - thanks! Some skiing as a bonus. :slight_smile:

Regarding defence, Bauchan is really great tank here, but I’m afraid if he’s tanking it would be too risky to put Sudri in the team as well. Hm, c.Gunar with Melia in could be an interesting option. Gonna wait and see what others will do, so I might get few ideas. :slight_smile:

First draft, maybe something like this (listened to @Silencio ) Could give Gunnar 7 nods on the talent grid…opinions welcome :slight_smile:

Defenses of the top 10 from the last 2 times this tourny was ran. Keep in mind all the new heroes and costumes that have been added since then.

Hi @Jules_Winnfield :slightly_smiling_face:

I suggest:

  1. Ulmer for the quick damage to all + defense down to start
  2. kailani to get the +defense and shared damage
  3. definitely shrubbear (built to be a tank)…wait, what? I’ve never seen that…ursiina? Hhhmmmmm…
  4. jahangir for damage to all +DoT
  5. renfeld

Just my thoughts…

Best of Luck

Way too passive, the center three is what does the heavy lifting even in rush, and apart from cRenfeld you’re just asking for all those buffs to be dispelled. Bonus that purple has both a dispeller (Tyrum) AND someone to completely counter Kailani with (Gill-ra). Definitely need to beef up the firepower.
