Used an 1.1 valen in stage 1 and he almost died to the mobs there… So I figured my unleveled 3* plan wasn’t really good and I decided to try 3 fully leveled 3*. (Which worked)
Had to use some items (usually I use bombs in stead of dragons, so have plenty stored), so the board quickly dried up.
CRen was the main damage dealer and did a great job mana controlling the bosses, staying filled on mana even when there were no purple tiles; this also meant I could send off-color cascades without much fear to work the board to purple. Gil-ra did a nice job of softening them up and blunting the boss hits. I took Bjorn to hit them hard, but he was the first leveled hero to die, so all he really contributed was getting me to the final stage with minimal damage, as he nuked mobs in stage 1 and 2.
In all seriousness, the Aifes were quite useful in the first level as disposable damage sponges. The hits they took didn’t affect the heroes I was invested in, allowing me to survive. It also meant that I had another color of tile damage, even though it was minor, so off-color cascades did some minor damage.
This was fun and helped me save even more heroes for later in TOL.
Thought I’d bust out my OG Sharan, but she only lasted two hits on the first mob stage. Oh well, Alfrike got the job done with the use of a few minor mana and healing potions
Thanks to all who played. We hope you enjoyed this forum challenge event and had fun playing the game slightly different, whether you win the prize or not.
As of this post, this event is officially closed. Not counting posts 1-4, there are 23 entries. To select the winners, we will use our trusty friend Discobot to roll a 27 sided die three times. The post numbers that are randomly selected will be our winners (assuming said person only posted once in this thread). If posts 1-4 is rolled (the instructions and bumps), that individual die will be rerolled.
My understanding is SGG reached out to each winner last time. I believe it was an in-game email. I would expect that.
You can always share images when you get your prize. One of the winners in the inaugural one is in my alliance and she shared a screen shot with me. Plus SGG told me when they did it. I think it was about a week after, maybe two.
