I’m at a loss for this. Thinking should be using green. My options are Peters +18, Caedmon+20 and unemblemed Wren. None of them seem great tank options. Will need to put some thought into this one.

Considering this

Other thought is this one

rebelsouljah · February 27, 2022, 8:38am

Oof… guess I read the Feb 22 calendar wrong. I was prepping for the 3* rush tourney. I guess that’s what happens when February and March have the same dates.

So in prepping for this 4* bloody, it looks like I really don’t have a solid green tank. Guess I’ll need to do a limit break blitz on Marcel.

WaVe · February 27, 2022, 9:24am

I think Marcel as tank? I’m guessing buddy still is the best tank for this format (damage, debuff and minions), but don’t have him.

I see some almurs in the previous round, but my marcel is way stronger.

@Kilted definitely no on the second option, as green has enough dispellers and boril is weak to green. Not sure what the better option would be though…

Kilted · February 27, 2022, 9:49am

Thanks, I’ve also been toying with just going mana control and using

Proteus / Mist / Peters / Gretel / Merlin

WaVe · February 27, 2022, 10:10am

That’s already better, although i would swap proteus and mist, due to better colourbalance and mist being fast.

Rockstar · February 27, 2022, 10:55am

I am thinking about this

Other options are

Is there any of the above better option to be replaced with current defense?

Blord · February 27, 2022, 10:59am

How does Franz fits in this tournament or is he just too slow ?

u2371 · February 27, 2022, 11:22am

I will try my LB Buddy & C Li Xiu

Grajek · February 27, 2022, 11:35am

I go with him as tank, Marcel is here to do dmg so hes better on flank

FraVit93 · February 27, 2022, 12:45pm

@Blord he will never be too slow, he is the best tank for this format.
@Rockstar Personally I would filed Frank-Marcel-Buddy-Li Xiu-Ingolf

Rockstar · February 27, 2022, 12:57pm

Thanks a lot. I will put ingolf then

Trixtopher901 · February 27, 2022, 4:30pm

Probably going to go with this team

leejow · February 27, 2022, 4:48pm

You think Franz is not to slow as tank? Currently got this as a lineup, Mist can slow them while Franz and Marcel gain enough mana to fire was my thought. Franz isnt fully levelled yet but a beast already.

FraVit93 · February 27, 2022, 5:23pm

Having the heroes I would field him as tank.
He may be very slow but his bulk is enough to last and in this format if he hast he kills.

Li Xiu-Franz-Marcel as center will be great, other good heroes would be Anastasia, Ceadmon, Tettukh, Hansel.

I wouldn’t use Almur but one of them.

@others With Mist and Griffith around I have long since lost faith on riposte heroes other than Ferrant.

Theo87 · February 27, 2022, 5:30pm

I’m going in with this team. Was thinking on putting Gretel instead Liu, but Liu has better stats. Should I add Gretel instead?

Slobix · February 27, 2022, 8:16pm

My choice for this tourney. In the past I had some success with Marcel, Jack, Mist and c. Tiburtus in bloody battle, let’s see what will happen this time.
