Day 1
O: 5-0
D: 1-0 (uh oh, @slobix effect )
No easy autofills even on day 1, in fact already fighting cap teams with LB heroes from match 3 onwards! Used exclusively (c)Caed, Hansel, Mist, Marcel, Almur, and Griffin. Actually only used Marcel in one match since I realized average speed doesn’t sync well with fast heroes especially when you want Marcel to fire before hitting them even harder with specials, or the board just dries up after 3 matches.
Went 3-2 for 4 matches, then last match against a cBoril+20 LB tank decided it was probably a good idea to go 4-1 because look at this hunky dwarf:
That’s Heimdall level defense stats. x_x
Figured probably needed the combined power of at least a 4 stack for tile damage, so went Caed-Almur-Hansel x2-Mist
As for the team itself:
Was almost tempted to go purple against cLi Xiu, but decided in the end getting rid of cBoril so I could start ghosting was more important. Opening board not too many green tiles, but spotted a diamond that was 3 moves away and that basically set the tone. With Almur’s debuff, even Hansel does 400-500 damage with his special, and Caed hits like Marjana so it was instant death to the right side. cGrimm got tiled out in short order, so it was just cLX vs my full team. Should be easy right? Get this, she dodged 3 specials consecutively. If I still remember my statistics right, that’s a 0.8% probability event, so statistically I’m more likely to pull a 5* than this happening.
Well whatever, the specials didn’t do damage but Hansel’s witch killer proc’d, so just kept sending tiles into her to make hit herself, and eventually some green tiles came up to finish her off.
Have to say, if heavily stacking green one should absolutely bring Almur, his special bare tickles but that -54% elemental debuff is simply brutal. Specials do heavy damage, tiles do ridiculous damage.
Defense is 1-0 for an A but a serious case of the @Slobix effect since it could’ve gone either way, and is the difference between an A and an E. Seriously SG please fix this, it’s quite ridiculous.
