Special Rule: Rush Attack

@zephyr1

Rush Attack makes all hero specials of any speed Very Fast — it doesn’t require Very Fast heroes, it turns all heroes into Very Fast heroes. Heroes that are normally Slow or Average can become quite powerful in this setting.

So the question is what purple 3* tank will you use and why Treevil?

Mine is +20 and LBed and has 1.1k+ HP and over 600 defense …

[Kilted]

I don’t have my treevil levelled yet so I’ll be going with an old style line up I think.

LB Maeve - Grevle - Chochin - Gunnar - Bjorn

[Wimster8]

Probably a bit like this…ready to rumble

Want to add Bauchan who has 20 emblems and LB but who is going to leave

[WaVe]

Nasty defense Wim. Funny how Treevils name gets translated.

You can sub out tyrum, put Maeve in wing, and bauchan in flank? His manacut combined with treevils slow will surely hurt; and you’ll get family bonus.

[Slobix]

This is mine:

And yes… 3* rush attack tourneys may be ruined forever now.

[PlayForFun]

We will need to learn how to counter Treevil for sure…

[Slobix]

I guess I will be going with these guys, with few other options s to consider. Maybe Noril+20 instead of Bjorn?

Mana generation slow + mana cut could be really nasty.

Noril instead of Bjorn could be an interesting option, to fight against attacking Treevil.

What looks better?

[Danoh70]

Figure Helo might be better than grevle to hopefully be able to counter the other teams Treevil. You know they are going to be everywhere.

[Chaka]

You’ll want to counter treevil. For this one I’d go helo

[Aabbott21]

I don’t ever focus on 3* or the 3* troops for tourney but its the best I have.

[Wimster8]

Tx WaVe! Appreciate the feedback!

[Tidyup]

Would helo even be of any help here? Against 1 treevil yeah sure, helo could handle it. But how about multiple copies of treevil?

[Mr.Sabaton]

I will go with this :

[WaVe]

I didn’t get Treevil (I didn’t check the end of the festival and figured I would have today as well… Oh well, maybe next time.).

So who to tank then? With no yellow, it sort of has to be purple. Maybe Bjorn LB?

But I don’t feel bjorn is punishing enough as tank… Other options:
Maybe Oberon (or in costume), or gillra as a poor mans treevil?

[Shunt]

Going to try this I think. I’ll have Treevil done with 20 emblems before the event starts but I’m one aether short of LB for him, damn.

[Mr.Sabaton]

In your place i would go with Sudri, Gunnar, C. Renfeld, Grevle, Bauchan/Forsty.

[Kilted]

What I am using.

With some reworking I can maybe get emblems maxed for Chochin and I’m only one aether of LBing him? Depending on war loot if I get worth doing then quick max? Or LB Bjorn instead?

[Aragorn_God]

Hopefully just one Treevil is allowed

[Alkaiosz]

I don’t have treevil, thank you MoneySG
