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.

[EPMars23]

Going to give this team a try. My 4* purples are not great. Definitely not a lot of firepower.

[WaVe]

Let’s try this:

@EPMars23 I think ferant should be tank. He needs to fire asap. Brynhild is quite a good flank for him; fast healing+ undispellable.

[leejow]

Was thinking of this defense, I have Ferant but without emblems so dont think he’s sturdy enough.

[Bwang]

Obviously I’d be suggesting regular Kiril for the double buff boost.

[Dudeious.Maximus]

First draft

[u2371]

I will go with this defense

[Gururch]

I was thinking this lineup. I don’t have great purples for this tourney. I’m interested to see if the minions do well with ghost form. More of an experiment… .

[EPMars23]

Forgot about Wren! Have to have him in a buff booster tournament.

[Control_Freq]

This is my first draft:

[Gwniver]

My Dark Heroes are not great either. None LBed, none with many emblems on at all. Not a fan of this tournament, I need my Mist Hm, what to do Oh well, good luck all

[Sam-I-Am]

Currently going with this:

i also have Proteus +17, Kiril +16 or cKashrek+19 i could put in, but not sure if they’d be any better.

it’s kind of nice, I’ve used these last couple of 4* tournaments as an excuse to finally emblem up my key heroes that i use all the time. Tibs and Caedmon have been waiting for emblems for a long time now.

[Control_Freq]

I think this is my last draft:

[Sabrar]

Anyone have an idea what is causing the huge difference shown in my rankings?

[PlayForFun]

Try reloading the game. It will refresh the rankings.

[Beendead25]

i had something very similar. Kiril, Sabina (c), Tiburtus (c), scarlett, proteus. so far no one has hit me on defense. but 5-0 on offense.

[Beendead25]

[Sabrar]

I have reloaded many times, I did my hits hours ago. This is not a new issue, I had this happen multiple times previously.

[Liam_K]

Much better start than the last tournament. Went with a mixture of 4-1 teams depending on the opposing tank. Used the Green team 3 times (Anton - Brynhild - Wren/Caedmon - Xiahou Dun - Almur), the Blue and Red teams once each.

The single loss was against this max LB, max troops team

Board wasn’t the greatest but I think I would have won against a lower TP team. The high HP made them very hard to kill. It came down to my Caedmon vs Franz and BT in overtime so not a zero

Defense wasn’t attacked yet, despite all my trouble rushing to level XhD for this
He is pretty good in attack though with his riposte dispelling minions

Good luck everyone!

[u2371]

Day 1

O : 5-0

Go with 3-2 stack

Blue : C/CB Kiril - Grimm - Sonya
Red : Guardian Falcon - CB Gormek - C Boldtusk/CB Gormek/Scarlett
Green : Buddy - C/CB Caedmon - C Caedmon/C Melendor
Purple : C Rigard/CB Sabina - Proteus

The board is very good today. Get 10 tile in first 5 turn in every attack. So, easy win

D : 2-2

Unexpected get few attack since my 4* defense is always attacked by 5 times in the first hours when the tournament.
