C Marjana vs Zenobia vs Octros

Hello, all! So I was very lucky and got these red 5*s. But as I am pretty much decided on the rest of my team - C Ariel, 2C Leonidas, Ahmose and Freya, I wonder which of these red ones will fit in the best and will be the most useful addition, considering I am new player and is my main team for all the purposes…

And for some reason I can’t build a poll on my mobile :frowning:

If it’s strictly about defense, I would say Octros. But for any part of the game you actually play (offense on raids/wars, events, titans…) c Marj is your best option. Elemental defense down is a very important special skill and there aren’t many heroes that do it.

Elemental defense down really shines when you’re stacking the color. But C Marjana is fast enough to reliably take advantage of this herself. And EDD is especially nice combined with a DD hero . . . like 2C Leonidas.

Octros is a solid all around hero. I’d probably lean towards him for a rainbow team, but C Marjana seems to synergize with this group well.

Zenobia is one of my favorite heroes - but she’s best used as a force multiplier for a solid Red team. You have the ground work for that with these three characters, but she isn’t necessarily the one to start with.

If you had a green tank, her ability to diminish red shields on defense would be worth considering. But I assume Freya will be serving that roll for you. (Personally, I use her a lot with C Jabberwock, which is a very fun synergy, but unquestionably niche.)
