[Randy]

If this is the tournament, I think I’ll go with this:

Valen should be +17 by the time it starts. Still going back and forth on Melia or Tyrum for left wing.

[Guvnor]

Tournament de Guv

First pass at the UNCONFIRMED tournament:

Edit;
Last time I went with the below & got a day end defence score of: E,A,A,A,A

So couple changes to put in Bat & Kavisr. May change bat out for Rudolph tho yet…

[Lexxtarc]

My team if the tournie is without Green

[Randy]

That team looks familiar. It’s like giving a to myself .

[Purpeyes]

Snap snap crocs are gonna get you!

[Guvnor]

OP updated.

Now confirmed the rules for this week.

[Sabrar]

Nothing too original.

[GDIBass]

I think I’m gonna roll with this one:

[Dwimmerlaik]

Nordri tank, Valens flanking, vodnik and Gato on wings. Full blue to take advantage of Nordri elemental debuff, Valens at flank for further defense down.

I was thinking about Ulmer too, but his slowness is bad

[WaVe]

I had this in mind:

Gunnar without costume for defense up, as no healing.
Other options:
Melia (+3), another bane with costume, Cochin (+12), gato (2 times, +1 the ither 3/50), valen (3/50), Balthazar (3/50).

Could go all blue?..

Unfortunately, I have only 2 slightly leveled 2* troops, and 1 unleveled 2*, so adding in some purple and yellow would probably be stronger.

Gunnar with or without costume?
Tyrum cleanse or dispell?

[sleepyhead]

was also thinking of a Blue center and Yellow / Purple wings

Björn over Balthazar as Björn hits two
Melia over Bane as she hits all

[bhushan]

Similar idea, just using Kvasir for his minion heal, and Nordi instead of Valen.

[Olmor]

@WaVe

Gunnar with or without costume?

Costumed if you pair him with AoE and without to couple him with snipers.

[Gorann]

If you’re bringing Kvasir, presumably it isn’t so important to have Gunnar in his defence role?

[Vikingblood80]

Defense set:

[Sabrar]

You want Nordri to shoot before the others, I would suggest reversing the order from left to right if you want him on flank.

[ApollosEmpire]

No Gunnar at all so I’ll use what I have- will have nordri maxxed b4 raids start.

[ApollosEmpire]

IS GUNNAR GOING TO BE THE “BEST” TANK IN THIS ONE?
It looks like there are GUNNAR tanks, and then those of us thAt don’t have GUNNAR LOL…
Who else could be good for this tournament? Not just tanks, but heroes in general? Here are my 3s - I tend to really struggle in bloody battles… @Guvnor you gave me a like on my defense and I appreciate that… If you see another hero in my 3 mix, could you lmk? That goes for anyone else too @CoreyOfTheIsland- your def suggestion helped me grab an A 6W 3L…
MY 1ST RUN DEF

Other 3s by element

*Keep in mind if there’s another hero that isn’t fully maxed yet like BAUCHAN- they will be by RT start if they’re that much better than what I have *
LMK what you guys think
