Only have 2 five star ice Heroes. Thinking about using this team. Any thoughts are appreciated.

I thought about using c Kiril as well. My only 5 star ice Heroes are Richard (cb) and fenrir

Option 1:

Option 2:

Leaning towards Option 2; I have a Yellow and a Purple at flank; Lepus is safely tucked away in wing; although I have 3 support heroes to 2 snipers, hopefully the buffs even it out.

Other Options:

IMO: Isarnia too slow; Sartana < Sesh due to Sesh’s dispel and minions; Rana doesn’t buff or hit very hard; and I don’t trust the AI to aim Malosi well.

@Vikingblood80 may I pick your brain again please? :slight_smile:

Sure.

I am not a fan of Inari on defense…she is simply too passive…that said I think option 1 is better.

Aegir - best tank…do you have a blue critical troop for him? Even if it has lower level…then higher troop can go to Lepus.

Seshat - monster :+1:
Aeron - good choice on healer this week

Joon vs Malosi :thinking: On offense Malosi will be a beast this week preventing buffs…on defense may be Joon is better as he hits harder. Poseidon would be best choice for yellow sniper this week.

Option 1…don’t see any better.

Think of going with this: @Sleepyhead

Last time I went with

Sonya Athena Richard Kiril Victor

Which changed between A and C for a final C rating.

I have gone with this:

A lot of my 5s dont buff so this is my least favourite in that format.

not sure about Ares in a tournament where Blues will come out a lot. Maybe Victor in place of Ares? Then the buff extends to all as well. (also thought about Domitia, then realized you won’t have any buffers in your team…)

Probably swap Poseidon and Mist…Richard and Poseidon firing after Mist will do more damage when hitting the same target…

thanks a ton! looks like Aeron / Joon it is. and yes, Aegir will get my crit troop so Lepus gets the top mana troop :slight_smile: good catch.

Agree, Malosi best used on offense, while Joon better on defense (harder hit, the blind would affect anyone).

Yes that was my thought as well…but I love critical on defense…I could simply use Kiril as last time. Tyr could be an option…but again red.

Domitia buffs 3…at least…only 1 buff

Thanks for the help. Maybe something more like this?

Could be. Then I would swap Grazul and Poseidon because of mana speed. Double red flank will be very vulnerable to blue stacks…probably favourite attacking color this week.

Richard: level his costume for the bonus. Hope you get a 4* troop.

Red troops : Now you messed up your red troops. The lvl 15 troop helps Grazul to fire 1 round earlier. Do you have a critical troop for Boldtusk?
