This Week’s Restrictions & Special Rule

Elements Allowed	Hero Rarities Allowed	Troop Rarities Allowed
No Nature/ Green	or lower	or lower

Special Rule: Buff Booster

Each buffs adds an attack multiplier!

@zephyr1

Buff Booster adds a stackable 20% attack buff to each hero for each active buff on that hero. Using heroes with special skills that grant buffs or multiple buffs can lead to very high attack boosts. These buffs stack with each other and normal attack buffs.

I think Passepartout as a tanker or a flanker with Krampus as a tanker will be sick in this 148th tournament. We can’t use green heroes here. While sending purple, yellow, blue or red tiles to charge your attack team, the board will be filled with green tiles. And then, Passspartout will fire his SS. Huge health boost & enormous defense buff by his skill and huge attack buff by buff booster will kill you. Maybe Zircon will be also sick, too? Anyway, Krampus, Passepartout and maybe Zircon will be sick in this tournament IMHO. This tournament will surely be tough for me. Good luck to you all!

[Cerevan_the_Omni]

Zircon even better since he is undispellable

[masaroozzang]

Wow. I forgot it. If he fire 1st skill or even 2nd one, he will be sick.

[FraVit93]

On no-blue buff booster Ferrant/tank Hanitra/flank did well, this time I’ll try Aegir/tank Hanitra/flank.

[TolisK]

Im thinking of this!

[Wimster8]

Let’s try this, some doubts about Hanitra or more firepower with LB Zekena, advice always welcome

Or this with Zircon

[Kilted]

I’ve more depth at 4* in blue than 5.

Decided to go with this currently

Thoughts as to why picked this:

Frida for debuff, EDD, plus same year HotM as Anzogh so all share buffs

Anzogh for some heal plus HotM buff with Frida

Richard as very sturdy, reg side chosen due to chance of talent buff.

JF for lots of buffs, burn, Def up Vs blue, reversal of Def down

Sapphire for damage potential

Considerations:

Seshat for Sapphire gives another dispell plus addition of same year as Anzogh/ Frida

Poseidon for Sapphire gives extra buffs and protects against any mana or special skill blocking

Isarnia for Sapphire keeps the blues and gives reg Def down ( no blem though)

Kiril for Sapphire gives extra heal plus buffs

CKiril gives heal and survivability plus overwrites most common buffs

All LB and +20 except Isarnia who is just reg 4/80

[Slobix]

Hm… Looks like I have some decent options for this tourney…

For example:

I have few more heros that could be added to the mix:

Having in mind the 2 combos I made and this pool of 4 heros - what would you do?

[Luna]

First draft

I think this may be the only option as I haven’t got many other options! Could replace Xnolphod with Alexandrine but she is not emblemed!

I think, most teams will have Krampus as tank!

Good luck everyone

[ntewinkel]

You have Krampus. So not much else matters as that’s the key
But I personally like ML over Glenda and I’d rather have Ariel at the other flank instead of a holy hero. Get that healing plus mana generation booster and Krampus will stay fat and healthy. White Rabbit is always annoying. I don’t have a preference for the other wing.

[ntewinkel]

If you’re going to use one ninja, might as well use two, I always say. That family bonus is worth it.

[ntewinkel]

I wonder how many pairings of Krampus and Mr. Pengi we’ll see in the top teams. Both ICE plus the family minion bonus and what Mr. Pengi does with those minions.

[KingArchur]

I think regular Krampus is better.

[Nightmare2048]

Thinking about this.

[WaVe]

This? At 4/75+20 kiril is comparable to my 4/80+10 5*. Could also put him in costume to debuff the enemy. Could also put magni in somewhere (tank, with a fast hard snipe and a buff?)

[Liam_K]

Think I’ll risk going for a no healer Defense

Will emblem Frosth more before the tourney starts. Can get him to 18 if I can find the ham Hope I don’t get matched up with too many Penolite and Skadi owners

[FraVit93]

Prof should stay to Krampus’ left.

[bob365]

I try with this team.
I think heros position can’t be better.

[Luna]

I would love to face your team I’m a Skadi owner

Just teasing

Joke aside! Yes I have Skadi and CGormek
I think that will be the tricky bit of this tournament

Skadi versus krampus + pengi!!!

May the boards with you all
