Boring but I think I go with these five in this crazy tournament

Who cares? The objective is to place in top 1% and not put out the most creative defense or whatever, since there’s no award for that. Btw I’d swap Zuri and Ludwig’s positions around.

I’m most likely gonna go with this:

Yeah yeah boring cliched snooze yawn blah blah idgaf ok? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

@rho Why do you two put the revivers on the right side?

Maybe i’ll try Toto - Cao Cao - Alfrike - Zhuge Liang - Lu Bu …maybe.

Rather than rehash something that I’ll in no way be able to explain eloquently, I’ll simply repost @genuineness’s amazingly detailed analysis here

Not even gonna bother to do a def team as I will be out in 2 days. I cant compete with all these 5* teams. Good luck to those who can.

Mal sehen was für ein Team ich stelle



Debating swapping out the reds for ccLeonidas and Anne, but the cSanta/Khufu combo has done me well in the past. If they go off, Lu Bu’s minions will be pointless because everyone will be dead.

Gonna go with this …

This is my first 5* rush with Ludwig and Khufu maxed, so I’m giving this lineup a whirl

Looks like I will be running this bunch:

Remember the power of cleric superior talents to reflect Alfrike. It makes this often overlooked lady powerful this week.

Ehh… why not…


The basic. Yea I could swap Oceanus to Kara/Prof but I want to see if this works aswell so I can use it in vf war aswell. Alfrike might not be fully lb’d before the end of the tournament sadly.

Don’t have much better heroes. So I’m trying this

O : 4:1
D : 2:0 - C Alby, Sobek, Ludwig, Inari, Skadi

Lost against the ‘generic’ Kalo, Ludwig, Alfrike, Khufu, C MN.
Didn’t expect to face this kind of defense on 1st day, but surely I did.
Went with the team I use almost always against def like this - C Sabina, Athena, Proteus, Sobek, Faiez.

What happened? - starting board notthing but yellow, green and red. So I fired Faiez. Alfrike fired twice, but before she fired 2nd time, I could fire Athena and Sobek and hurt front 3 a lot + Sobek gave his passive DoT. 2nd time Faiez’s block was already gone. Everyone was mindless except C Sabina, I was able to fire her and she blocked Lud’s taunt. I was somehow able to get rid of both Alf and Khufu and there was a safe spot to ghost tiles. I needed at least 1 blue or purple match. In next 3-4 turns, surely I got none of those matches and C MN revived Khufu. C Sabina’s buff block gone, Lud fired. Khufu fired, next turn Kalo and my heroes were super dead. Did what I coulld, but tiles refused to come.

Matchmaker gave me an easy start to the tournament, with only one Alfrike tank. Went back to the Matilda - Ludwig - Lepiota trio in attack, backed by Mother North and Vivica/Wang Yuanji.

First 3 matches were easy if time consuming. Fourth match was against a Ludwig tank flanked by Kullervo and Sobek with Kalo and MN wings. My Ludwig died from hits from Kullervo and Sobek, but MN brought him back and finally managed to send everyone to the Abyss to die.

Toughest was against the Alfrike tank in the last match of course.


Sent Alfrike to the abyss before she fired but LoTL’s minions kept cutting Lepiota’s mana just as she was about to fire. Vivica and MN kept the multiple cubed Ludwig alive just long enough to finally win in overtime.

Defense is 0-1 so far. Anything above E will be a bonus :grin:

Good luck everyone!
