No Healing!?! No red?

Oh man licking my fingers , this is about to get messy!

Freya - Sif - Telluria - Freya - Skadi

Bring your minions :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m not sure about that, didn’t we depart fairly completely from the cycle last week, going from a 4* Rush Attack All Elements to a 5* Bloody Battle No Holy/Yellow?

I confirm @zephyr1 this is no longer a normal cycle or last week was an exception ?

I don’t know, but with the small change last week and large change this week, my suspicion is there may be a new cycle in place.

We’ll probably be able to better infer if that’s the case when we see what the new format is tomorrow.

Damn if this is true that Frigg I caught would be sooo useful in here. But no tonics so no chance.

What’s interesting is for the past two tourneys, they are both first timers because the particular combination of elements+modifier (4* rush no red, 5* buff no yellow) have never before appeared in the previous cycles.

So this leads me to believe we are indeed in a new cycle, and probably one that’s trying to fill the voids in certain combinations that has never been set before.

Correct. The one before also deviated

That’s just standard text in all of these :stuck_out_tongue:

I suspect it’s time for new text, but we’ll see soon enough.

If you go back to the early threads, I used to have different standard text in the template back when we didn’t know there was a rotation, or what format was coming. This is copied from #5 if you want to adapt from it:

The allowed elements and hero/troop rarities, as well as the Special Rule will be available once the Tournament opens for joining and setting Defense Teams.

Extremely rough draft, 99% likely to change

Or maybe I should just go full yurplle instead…

Roster:

Help? :sweat_smile:

I will try this!

Do you think I should try tanking with somebody else?

I have like 90% of the four star heroes…

I will probably swap Lil’John and Rigard… thoughs?

Starting 4:

Options I am considering (also have tiburtus, kiril, grimm+20 but their skills interfere too much)

Had been considering Sapphire but VF isnt good for ninja. Caedmon and Sonya interfere with Wilbur. Leaning Peter’s but not sure. Final option not pictured is Rigard with 8 emblems.

All elements allowed is too many options…

Gullinbursti will surely shine, but mine won’t be leveled in time (at 3/40 now). Oh well, he will be ready for the next 4* rush.

My first idea, but with many good options, this is very likely to change:

Options:

@rho I like your gullinbursti choice. Mine is unemblemed do idk what to do there. I like the idea of Rigard or ©Rigard definitely. Buddy could be a big pain. Kiril will be a punk. Bt will make things tough. Seemed like in the last rush attack that 2-3 healers were tough teams to beat. Idk tho. I think your team looks good on paper.
