Draft 1. I’m trying to decide if Marcel is worth breaking rainbow to bring.
The rainbow option looks something like this:

(Ignore the troops!)

[Kilted]

I’d wanted to have my Scoratek ready for this but he’s too far away. ABIT of thought will be needed on this.

[TolisK]

Im thinking going like this.
Fiend heroes rule the bloody battles. I just don’t know whether I should put my second Scoratek in the place of Mielikki.

[NewGuy143]

Thought about using this setup myself

[NewGuy143]

I’m fond of rainbow when it’s available.

[u2371]

From previous 4* all color buff booster, I found that stronger hero and synergy have more effect than color configuration. And healer isn’t necessary for defense if you have enough fire power.

Detail

I go with this team

@u2371

I will try this defense. The color configuration isn’t good but use strong heroes. Not sure if it gonna work or not

And end at B grade with 30+ attack

@u2371

D : 57.8% (30+)

Seem to stay between A and B grade cut off.

---

So, I have 2 defense team set up for this tournament.

1

2

Which one do you think is better ? I prefer the Wilbur tank one.

• 1
• 2

[u2371]

If I were you, I would try

Marcel - C Tiburtus - Mielikki - Bellerive - Ametrine

Do you have any other fast/average hit all like C Wu Kong or C Kelile or exceptional powerful hero like Cillian ?

[FraVit93]

It’s a shame that my Mielikki isn’t ready yet…

My defense is Sonya* - Franz - Ferrant - Tiburtus* - Griffin

[u2371]

@FraVit93

It’s a shame that my Mielikki isn’t ready yet…

Me too. My Mielikki just get her last ascend yesterday .

[Andrewbook]

@u2371

Do you have any other fast/average hit all like C Wu Kong or C Kelile or exceptional powerful hero like Cillian ?

The only one of those I have is C Kelile, but I don’t have any emblems on her. Rogue emblems are tight around here!

[Andrewbook]

What about putting Li Xiu at tank? I was surprised to see her tanking I’m several of the top defenses last time.

[Andrewbook]

IMO very slow heroes will next get off a shot at flank unless they are doing poorly enough that any other hero would win the match as well. I’m sitting Franz out for this tourney.

[Andrewbook]

@u2371

If I were you, I would try

Marcel - C Tiburtus - Mielikki - Bellerive - Ametrine

I’m looking at this now. I think cb Sonya for the cleanse will be better than Amertine, and was thinking I wouldsepersteTibsand Marcel to get defense down on both sides. Why are you thinking the same side?

@FraVit93

It’s a shame that my Mielikki isn’t ready yet…

When I pulled her I actually checked the tournament calendar and leveled her eighths date in mind. I finished yesterday!

[Roland56]

I’m probably gonna go def drop heavy like one of those top defs previously -
Griffin, Buddy, C Tibs, C Li Xiu, CB Grimm. Would love to have C Wu, but the costume evades me and in red 4* I have literally no fast hero with emblems, C Kelile has no priority for rogue emblems and I have better rogues to give emblems to, C Colen feels too slow for wing. Also I don’t have a whole lot of minion/fiend summoners in 4*. Buddy and unleveled Scoratek, which isn’t my leveling priority.

[FraVit93]

I were finishing Silvaria, have to level from 0 Whaker, Jing, Mielikki and now him:

Mielikki is the next in line anyway while Mielikki#2 will be the last one

[Liam_K]

It’s Bloody Battle, not Buff Booster. Cillian’s Revive won’t work

[u2371]

@Andrewbook

The only one of those I have is C Kelile, but I don’t have any emblems on her. Rogue emblems are tight around here!

Any only one of those have to be at least 80+20 to be better than Ametrine.

So, Marcel - C Tiburtus - Mielikki - Bellerive - Ametrine

@Andrewbook

I’m looking at this now. I think cb Sonya for the cleanse will be better than Amertine, and was thinking I wouldsepersteTibsand Marcel to get defense down on both sides. Why are you thinking the same side?

From my experience of using C Caedmon on defense (I don’t have C Sonya), cleanse have smaller effect than firepower.

On defense, the heroes fire whenever they can. The attack can trigger than or wait to apply ailment after they fire.

So, I think Amertine is better than C Sonya since she do more damage.

@Andrewbook

What about putting Li Xiu at tank? I was surprised to see her tanking I’m several of the top defenses last time.

#2 with Li Xiu tank and C Wu King at right wing might work. I know Li Xiu is good tank but I think Anastasia is better tank.

@Liam_K

It’s Bloody Battle, not Buff Booster. Cillian’s Revive won’t work

Yes, but at least mana stack still work. The problem is my other choice is C/CB Caedmon. C Wu Kong will not be good since there are already 2 yellow.

I use C/CB Caedmon at wing in 4* bloody battle many times and not very successful.

I never use Cillian in 4* bloody battle but I think he is a bit better than C/CB Caedmon since he do more damage even he is slow.

[Trixtopher901]

This is what I’m going with, the magic bonus seems useful

[L33tVortex12596]

Torn between these two
