I was lucky enough to pull Mitsuko recently and because my alliance uses red tanks in the war teams I was thinking to use her as a tank. The flanks are not decided yet. The problem is that I have no idea how to build a team around her.
My current team (from left to right) Rigard, Boril, Gormek, Melendor, Jackal. Only Rigard and Melendor are maxed the rest of the team are only 4/34 and above.
I have some summon-only four stars flank candidates:
Miki
Proteus
Gadeirus
Jack O’Rabbit
Danzaburito
Merlin (eh)
Ameonna (eh 2.0)
Some classic four stars I have as candidates:
2nd Melendor
Li Xiu
Chao
Caedmon
Kiril
Boldtusk
Little John
Cyprian
Tiburtus
Every classic red 4*
I have Magni, Sumitomo, Khagan and Marjana but Magni is too far away from being levelled and I do nit want to double the tanks colour.
Do you think that a Caedmon-Gadeirus flank duo could work? (so Rigard the only heal-all)
What about a glass-cannon Melendor?
Li Xiu + Proteus flank? But then Rigard and Jackal are out…
I’m not sure…
How would you build the best defense team out of this roster?
What four star heroes should I aim to pull? I’m not spending a lot but a 10 pull is acceptable.
I would also like to know how would you beat a team like that?
Dispell, Mana freeze and Dot, Mana cut and splash damage, Mana cut AoE, cleanse and big heal.
If you find Proteus lacking on defense you can go Merlin. In either scenario you’re really screwing the attack of the enemy with the mana controllers which buys you time in the war scenario. Time is on the side of the defender as the arrow barrage wears them down or the field aid heals them up. For the attack boost the impact is more immediate.
Due to the presence of BT, the attacker would definitely think twice of bringing monoreds and instead get their blues to immediately dispose of Mits and the orc healer. As such, you let Mitsuko do her own thing against blue attackers. Even if the enemy brings monoreds, they cannot kill a maxed Mitsuko with 3 tiles, which later on allows her to do some damage and reduce mana to 3 targets.
Something like Rigard, Li, Mitsuko, Miki, Proteus… So even if the attacker brings dispeller(s) it’s pretty likely it/they will be hit by one of the mana reducer by the time Miki uses his skill. This would perhaps solve the team’s weakness: lack of damage…
This would punish a blue stack with bad board beyond imagination… My Colen is still a baby but I think he is the easiest to replace by a hitter or a “screwer” like Jackal, Proteus or Li Xiu… interesting idea not less… Thanks I will think some more about this…
Wouldn’t do that setup for war def. The alliance I’m in did a mono def war for funs, and our lovely opponent jumped onboard and went mono too. Hilarious but I’ve never seen so many oneshots.
It would depend on the level and refinement of the opponent of course, but it’s a very very risky def for war.
In war with coordinated tanks you stack after either flanks or skill sets or both. Mono makes that way too easy (well, 4+1 but effectively mono as the off colour is a healer).
She’s a good tank! Inexperienced opponents might go blue on her. Not coordinating her flanks makes it harder to stack for them, especially if they’re yellow and dark. Keeping the mana cut pressure up is also good, with Proteus and/or Li. I think you’ll do fine with her :).
