Help me set my defense

[Guvnor]

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
