First thoughts, not having the emblems for Chick jr. and not sure Gunnar with of without C

[leejow]

From the previous top 10, 6 went with cGunnar out of 9 defense with him as a tank. So combined with Nodri Im going with the same kind of defense as shown below. Not 100 procent sure about the poppy’s yet but they do kick ■■■.

[WaVe]

@leejow this does make you vurnable to a purple stack.

I think I did well with this kind of defense last time, so let’s try this again:

[rebelsouljah]

CB Gunnar and Treevil. And throw in some fast heroes and maybe some DoT heroes.

[TolisK]

Treevil is only good in very fast mana tournaments. Otherwise he is a liability.

[sft1965]

This is what I am thinking of initially. Any thoughts or suggestions? Yes, I realise I am encouraging a yellow or purple stack, but what else are people going to use?

Or maybe this to force a 3, 2?

[Aryukell]

Howdy! I’m pretty new, so enjoying these 3* tournaments, even if I’m not very competitive yet. (Very happy to manage top 25% on the last one!) What do you guys think of this?

I have no other blue (except Frosty). Other levelled 3*, Bane, Pixie, Namahage, cRenfeld, Kailani, Balthazar, Tyrum, Nashgar

[Wimster8]

Throw in some fast heroes? Have two of them

[Aryukell]

Those options I wrote in the end is what I have. Don’t have Gunnar yet, cause RNG

[Slobix]

I was thinking something like these two, still haven’t decided though.

[Kalgaath]

If you go with this lineup I’d put def down Heroes on the left

[Gururch]

If you choose the Gato option switch his position with bjorn to maximize his status ailment block

[Gururch]

I would swap Balt for Gan Ju. He is fast and hits hard

[Gururch]

I like option 2 but swap out thrum for nodri. Place nodri as flank with bjorn as wing

[Aryukell]

Right, good point, thanks!

[Aryukell]

Aha, even if that means taking two purples?

[WaVe]

I would probably do:
Valen / maeve / nordri / karil / bane.

Frosty might even be worth considering, as his minions are a sort of healing, but those Christmas minions are not that bulky.

Because your heroes aren’t emblemed, you’ll start at at a similar level and most people won’t have good counters.

[Aryukell]

Thanks for the tips! I was thinking of Frosty at first, but the minions are so weak now after the nerf, sigh

[Gururch]

For me yes, since you have 3 blues mid and the purples are split. Plenty of cover For them
