Nice easy 5-0 start to the tournament. Going with speed again, attacking with a 3-1-1 Holy stack of Kvasir/cKvasir, Poppy, Bane. The other 2 slot was switching between cTyrum (against Treevil), Tyrum and Joukahainen (against Shrubbear), or Aqeela and Whacker (if I just need damage). Boards were good so not much trouble, especially against teams with multiple Slow, Very Slow heroes.
Trying out cKvasir for the first time in defense. He doesn’t block minions, but as a Paladin he feels tanker and his minions have more hp (18%) compared to the original (15%). Currently 1-0, so we’ll see at the end of the week how the experiment went.
Offense 4-1. 1 match against treevil. Starting board was bad, and second match made an off-colour diamond, after which another off-colour diamond formed and exploded; massive cascade followed without my colours… Tree fired; cleansers not ready, and basically it was over…did manage to kill treevil before the end.
My defense was not attacked yesterday so I got a C grade, unfortunately.
Day 2
offense: 4-1
Defense: 0-0 (so far)
Total
Offense: 8-2
Defense:0-0
Today I had a Treevil battle, he was left wing and he didn’t fire before I killed him.
My last match was Sally flanked by treevil both sides, again I was lucky and killed both before they fired.
In the match I lost, I only killed the tank, I basically failed because of Kvasir and Gunnar on flank. I would have won if Gunnar didn’t go off because I did get enough tiles to charge specials again and also to hit Kvasir
It was not a “great team” but board was terrible
Completely lack of yellow tiles an not too much greens throughout the battle deprived me of a chance to win. Treevil just doesn’t forgive a bad boards… (screen on the other phone - it will be later).
I keep running 2 attack teams, either 4-1 with 4 yellows and CB Mnesseus or 4-1 with 4 purples and CB Mnesseus. Bloody battle 3* is one of my least favorite tournaments, so I think I’m doing pretty ok so far.
I faced 3 Dolgoon tanks in a row today, I was like, game keeps giving me Dolgoon until I loose against one and it happened… Lost the third defense with him as tank. Annoying little brat, I tell you.
Five more wins today, though a bit tougher teams than yesterday. Same attack strategy as yesterday Tyrum/cTyrum - Poppy - Kvasir/cKvasir - Whacker - CB Bane
Faced 2 Dolgoon tanks. The first one was easy with a big cascade to start the match. The 2nd one was flanked by Sally and Treevil with Gnomer wings. Couldn’t stop him from firing multiple times so my snipers weren’t doing much damage. Luckily the flanks were slow so by the time the Yellow tiles came to kill off the tank, I could finish off both Sally and Treevil before they fired.
In 2 of the matches faced S5 teams with Rekhetre and Faiez, and the last team even had Lemur and Aderyn for 4 healers. Must have been auto-filled
Defense is now up to 6-0 so things are perfect so far
Well, today was painful. It turns out that without the right tiles a good team is not going to get very far. Or, as my mental sound track would have it:
No sense in breaking it down, i’m already out. i had a bad Day 1 with 2 losses, picked up my fourth loss on the last battle today. My non-LB’d barely emblemed 3s just can’t hang with heroes with way better stats than theirs.
D (posted above) is 5-8, at least it won a few. probably would be doing better if Kvasir was emblemed, etc.
good luck the rest of the week! see you next time…
Well, all I have to say is WOW for Day 3…
Day 1 my defense was not attacked so I got a C, then Day 2 it was attacked once and I won so Day 2 was an A, and so far today I was attacked once, so 2-0 for an A again.
Day 3
Offense: 5-0
Defense: 1-0
Total
Offense: 13-2
Defense: 2-0 (C, A, A, ?, ?)
Score: 9027 / top 1%
Most of the matches today seemed like I was going to lose.
I managed to get very lucky with tiles on them all, not necessarily starting out with enough tiles, but eventually getting them. Even when Treevil fired, I was still able to win and only lost 1 hero!
I have been doing 2x Purple, 3x yellow each match.
Aqeela today was MVP, she fired and helped my Bjorn kill 3 people. He had about 50 health, and he dodged 2 or 3 specials!
My Attack team is:
Bjorn / Aqeela / Kvasir / Sally / Poppy
I tried a tile damage heavy team with cb Brienne, but didn’t get the tiles after I activated her.
With the encouragement of Rosalina the pig from the Sing 2 song stuck in my head (“if you want it, take it”), I bought back in to finish the day in what could only be a pity matchup against a team with multiple healers.
O: 11-4
D: 9-0 A-A-?
My defensive score has me in the top 1% at the moment even with the 4 losses.
Took my first lost in the 3rd match today against a cMnesseus - cKvasir - Dolgoon - Aqeela - Gato team. Countered with cTyrum - Poppy - Kvasir - Joukahainen - Bane. Board had more Blues and Purples than Yellows, but probably would have survived against a slower team. The opposing Aqeela and cMnesseus fired multiple times, and her passive did a ton of damage as well. Still managed to kill the tank and right side of the defense so got about half the possible points.
Defense also took some losses but still in the A rank at 8-3
I go with 3 green 2 yellow. The board is bad in different way. It is start with good amount of yellow and green but they never fall more and dry up with red and blue. And when I am about to charge my yellow. The unwanted cascade trigger enemy Treevil. I mean 3 red tile and 3 blue tile vertical cascade right under enemy Treevil . He fire and I didn’t bring cleanser. I manage to kill tank and left wing before enemy Treevil fire again and I lose. However, my 3* cleanser are C Tyrum and Helo. The purple tile appear in the least amount when compare to all other color. If I use purple stack instead of green, I think I will lose with 0 . And Helo never be my choice in bloody battle. The only one that can make me win is “C Mnesseus” which I didn’t have .
I don’t know why but this tournament seem to be exceptionally hard that other 3* bloody battle.
D : 8-7
Getting much better now. My defense isn’t bad. It is just unlucky . Not sure if I end day 2 with D or C grade.
