Help me set my defense

[AnRui]

Was thinking of using something like

Alby/inari/ursena/onatel/kingston

Suggestions?
How’s inari next to ursena? Conceptually i feel like could be a good pair

Hiya!

From the looks of things you’ve spent some heavy $$ in a pretty short period of time & have a lot of really good heroes!

I’ll offer up some GENERAL advice first:

@Guvnor

The first piece of advice - Focus on the 4*s

The best advice I can & will give is to focus on 4* heroes & pause the 5* ones (once you finish their current ascension tier). Reasons being:

1. 5* heroes are very expensive & time consuming to level-up. They need a lot of unfarmable materials
2. 4* heroes who are maxed are more useful than a 5* stuck at 3-70. 4* heroes can be used in more places (more tournaments & more challenge events) than the 5* who’s stuck. Additionally, the 4* hero can be emblemed up while the 5* hero just sits & looks dopy…
3. 4* heroes form the base of the game. In wars & raids, most players (except the very very advanced ones) supplement their line-up with 4* heroes.

My advice is to work on 4* heroes until you get 4x maxed rainbow 4* teams. This will allow you to get:
a) a good base roster to work from. Useful in wars, raids, tournaments, events etc…
b) a good understanding of your play style. What skills & hero types are best suited to you.
c) able to stockpile those extremely rare unfarmable 4* ascension materials (Darts, Tomes etc…)

Only once you got 4x rainbow 4* teams (15-20 maxed 4-stars) would I focus again on 5* heroes.

And also this thread is a good read:

Your Defense Team Is Good Enough

There’s a lot of focus in these forums on making raid defense the best it can be. I’d like to take a moment to point out another perspective. Please note this perspective comes from a player who can compete in Diamond league without much issue. This advice is NOT for those struggling to stay in Diamond. There are benefits to having a ‘good enough’ raid defense team. ‘Good enough’ for me means waking up to 2350-2450 cups. Hero Wanted Mission chest will fill more efficiently, because the fi…

back to your question!

Help you with a defence team

defence now:

`Alberich -> Richard -> Onatel -> Marjana -> Kingston`

Defence Future

Thres options I’ll put forward

Option 1:
Pretty decent one, using both healer and a fair bit of attack power
Alberich -> Tyr -> Ursena -> Onatel -> Kingston

Option 2:
More attacking setup than the last one
Kingston -> Tyr -> Ursena -> Onatel -> Marjana

Option 3:
Makes use of the Y-P-Y defence setup. Can swap alberich out for one of the right wing snipers
Alberich -> Poseidon -> Ursena -> Onatel -> Tyr/Kingston/Marjana

[AnRui]

Thank you pal, which of the three options you think gives the best results?

[SupremeAlienRaptor]

Try them each out for a day and see, otherwise use the one you have the highest leveled heros to fill out

[AnRui]

A little update…i got mitsuko, magni and telluria…how do they fit in my defense? Where would u use em?
How would u set my defense?
Also, my maxed red are grazul and marjana…where do i use my next lot of rings? Mitsuko , Jf or tyr??

@AnRui

Mitsuko, IMHO.
But leave her alone until you’ve got them.

Telluria is the best tank in the game, but if you use her you’ll have to drop Alby and Kingston… It’s a lot of change.

Guessing no more maxed since the pics in post 1?

In that case…
Alby - Richard - Onatel - Marjana - Kingston

[AnRui]

I have +8ursena forgot to mention her and magni

[BubblesUK]

Okay so Ursena now maxed changes things.

Though TBH it probably just pushes Onatel off defence since she really wants to tank… Ursena just does it better.

Magni maxed is more complicated…
You’d have to take Kingston’s emblems for him to run iy, which pushes Kingston off defence.
If you do that, Magni flanks and Marj wings normally - but then you have two blue flanks which isn’t ideal.

[AnRui]

What about poseidon/ursena/telluria/magni/marjana or kingston/onatel/ursena/magni/tyr?i d have to share emblems but that’s ok

[BubblesUK]

Are all these maxed?

If not, play with what you have maxed first… Choose hero’s based on attacking capabilities and build the best defence from what you chose for attacking.

[AnRui]

Not yet but i have all the mats to upgrade em…
I just dont know which to upgrade first

[0zombiestomper]

I can’t find the prefect fit for your team, however I think that a center of defense with Mitsuko flank - Telluria Tank - onatel flank would be interesting for mana control. With that you could add 2 fast snipers as wings to add a bit more speed and punch.

It’s only an idea though
