:left_speech_bubble: Before and During the Tournament: Share & Discuss Your Teams, Thoughts, Feedback, and Questions!

:speaking_head: Some topics to start off with:

  • Do this week’s restrictions on hero/troop rarity and elements make your bench depth better or worse suited to this Raid Tournament than Regular Raids?

  • Are there heroes you’re likely to use for this Tournament that you normally don’t make use of anymore?

  • Are there heroes you plan to power level for this Tournament, or level before the next time a Tournament like this one rolls around?

  • Do Costumes affect your team selection at all?

  • What are you thinking about using for your Defense Team?

  • Are there heroes you expect to see on Enemy Defenses that you think you’ll have a harder time dealing with than usual because of the restrictions or special rule in this Tournament?

  • Which of your heroes will you be likely to use on your Attack Teams?

  • Will the restrictions or special rule of this Tournament change your usual approach to color stacking or team building?

  • Are there elements of this week’s Tournament that are unclear to you?

  • Do you have feedback on the Tournament matchmaking?

It’d be good to be a different one as I clearly remember all the Kunchens from the last time :thinking:

Going to see so. many. Kunchen. Tanks.

I think I’m going to stack dark and use Chameleon on them.

Despite my objections to facing him, I’m going to ride with Kunchen myself. Thinking this is how I go:

Kunchen tanks seem like a job for Miki. I think I’ll go with him as a Tank and Elena + Gregorion for flanks. Rigard + Boldtush for wings as healers since my only 5* healer is Viv.

That one time a year where Quintos is useful. I am thinking maybe:

Isarnia, Grazul, Quintos, Azlar, Costumed Rigard.

Quintos is squishy though so… not sure he can survive long enough even if no yellows.

If this is the case, I’m okay with it because my yellow is pretty weak.

Still going to mainline a Richard tank.

For all those people who were complaining that JF sucks, I expect he will be quite good on offense in this tourney to combat kunchen.

Last Time

Didn’t put up a defence or posts last time this specific combination occurred but the last 5* rush attack I set the below defence and it netted me an A or B grade defence the whole way thru
… hopefully the Yunan & BK combo comes thru again!

Ok, for the upcoming Rush tournament (5*, no yellows), do you think it is worth bringing Kunchen to 3/70 (currently at 2/60) or keeping with Costume Rigard?

Also planning on Ursena, BK, costume tibs (if I don’t take Kunchen) and zeline/vela.

Thinking if I take Kunchen, I can leave out tibs and rigard and put in proteus.

Thoughts?

You’ll be matched with opponents based on your strongest 5 eligible heroes for this Tournament — so in all likelihood, attackers you’re matched with won’t find a 3-70 Kunchen particularly troublesome.

That’s what I’m worried about. Costume Rigard has been good to me. Just trying to get feed back on if it’s worth power feeding Kunchen. Thanks.

If you had a massive quantity of feeders and ham stockpiled and wanted to take him to 4-80, then I could see the argument.

But I don’t think a sprint to 3-70 will do much for you, at least on Defense.

There’s maybe an argument that you’d like him on Offense, but I’m inclined to think you’d probably prefer other options there too.

I lack the tabards or it wouldn’t even be a question. Thanks again.

Would you take jabber over zeline or vela?

Not having either Zeline or Vela maxed it’s hard to say… Jabber is a fast sniper who can hit hard…

Zeline and Vela both offer DoA and debuffs (plus DoT from Vela) so it’s a tough choice…

Sorry that I can’t be more cut & dry haha

Appreciate the input.

Probably use this…
