Just an idea ive had to run the same tank through the whole alliance. Fresh alliance just starting up , with only two rules. Hit the titan and use flags if opted into war. Team power of 5500 preferred ( I’m 6630 currently) come grow with me and shape this alliance from the ground up. Welcome all who have and use Ludwig. Second limit break would be ideal but you can work on that. Ive thought how hard it would be to deal with the same tank from 30 different teams×6 teams( for war)!!! My name is chris. Mention it at the gate.

Good luck. Hope to face your alliance in war sometime. 6 Ludwig tanks would be quite fun to battle against

I have raul… The 4* blue minion guy who dispelled with minions, fortuna, Sabina, Ray… You are right … I don’t have enough heroes to fight six ludwig tanks… But there are plenty of counters.
I’d love to give you your chance! Odds of the average player having six dispellers and having them ready to fire at the correct timing is pretty slim. Ranked almost in the top 100 last hero league and have yet to lose if Ludwig fires against anyone ( even teams of all toons) and I’ve been around over 3 yrs. So I’m hoping to give you a shot at your hopes. Lol
There are counters to every single hero but im assuming like you that the average player doesn’t have six counters to one specific hero. Better than different tanks with multiple options for difficult counters for each. Same reason most alliance coordinate a specific color for tanks to limit options
throw on neema and 3 waddles, a roughian… and a partridge in a pair tree… probably not as formidable as you would hope… but chances are ya’ll would be in the top 1000… and teams at the level would probably struggle.
Always a negative Nancy in the bunch . Nothing new in today’s age of kids who grew up behind a computer screen
Maybe I should’ve added “me” to my original comment. 6 Ludwig tanks would be quite fun to battle against, for me. Could well be a nightmare for others but personally, if I see a Ludwig tank on the board these days then I’ll likely attack it. If I see 6 then I’ll likely attack all 6 if they’re the right level teams (I wouldn’t attack teams that are too weak).
Do I have enough yellow heroes to cope? As most people have been running purple tanks on war defences for the last few years now, yes I do.
Do I have enough dispellers? Oh, Yes…yes I do
But that’s me. What you’re planning on putting together here could well be a living nightmare for many.
One tank has been done before. Someone did an alliance where everyone ran Salmon Loki tanks and another where everyone ran Guinivere tanks and both looked like a lot of fun from the defensive aspect too. I see no reason to believe this wouldn’t be the same.
I’m not trolling you or trying to put you or your idea down. I honestly think it would be fun either way. Personally, building a defence around Ludwig these days could be fun, especially in Rush and/or with the right devastating heroes either side of him it could be quite the bother to crack. But it would also be fun to go up against personally. Either way, it sounds like fun, I hope you have lots of fun doing it and I hope to have fun if we meet on the battlefield.

Good luck with your alliance. Uniformity is a good strategy and it has been used in top alliances for as long as I can remember. A couple of them where players have deep rosters, even try to use the same exact defense, not just the tank.
All the best.

Thanks for not coming on here with all the negativity. Being positive on here is very refreshing and different. Thanks and happy gaming!!!
I think in all the time I’ve been playing (since April 2018), I have only seen one war opponent that all had the same tank. Arco. And we got crushed by that Arco team.
An all-Ludwig tank alliance might work in Rush, but he is easier to handle in other war formats.

I’ve seen screenshots of wars between top teams… like top 5… and they had 30 identical teams on the field. It sounds incredibly both daunting and boring for the opponent.

I remember way back (like WAY BACK) when top players on top teams complained about fighting Guinevere tanks over and over again every war. Was way past my pay grade at the time. But I remember how annoying she was when she first appeared, so I could imagine the frustration. Then there was that Gravemaker/Telluria/Vela era pre-nerf. Never faced a team that was all GTV, but I heard there were some.

I’ve noticed that with the second limit break that Ludwig normally fires at least once. Last arrow war one hit or full clean of my team took 8 flags. I use Ludwig at 90 and 25 emblems flanked by grimsteel at 90 and 24 emblems and lemonwood at 90 and 23 emblems, xiamara at 90 and 21, and shimmerscale at 85 with 20. I have never lost after Ludwig fires. Grimsteel buffs both attack and defense with a hefty heal. Lemonwood attacks ridiculously high even w/o grimsteels buff. Xiamara hits hard and shimmerscales minion hits like a special skill every turn. Last hero league i was just outside of the top 100 and used that one team the whole event despite facing 7 to 7.5k teams. If Ludwig fires i win period. Sure counters of every single hero exists but if 30 tanks were all the same you limit the options even further than a specific color. Coordinating color tanks is tried and true method which limits options but taking it a step further in my opinion limits the options even further. Maybe I’m wrong and no one will want to try this strategy and I’ll fold this attempt but i think it’d be cool and frustrating as hell. I played with a top 200 alliance and my team normally was in the top 5 of most flags cost to kill!!!
Good Lord! Now that’s a hell of a team there. Grimsteel is a living nightmare and Lemonwood is too. Not sure you need them to fire more than a couple of times for it to be game over especially with Shimmerscale and Xiamara sitting in the wings.

It may only work in Rush war. In all other wars, Ludwig tanks are easy prey…
A few easy to acquire counters: itham, c2.Sabina, c2.Sonya, Felton. Then the 5* heroes: Neema plus a Dispeller, El Nadaha, Chakkoszrot, Daemon, Change‘e.
And the mana controlers… it will be a massacre.
Happy gaming
You would need two dispellers. One to take away taunt then one to dispell his flanks. Sure plenty of four star counters but you have to hope they’re not killed before they can do their thing. And who has 12 dispellers and when you bring four stars into a match with five stars who are fully leveled you risk them getting clipped off easily. Not sure where that would land but i can speak from almost the top 200 in alliances and if it was as easily as everyone believes why was my team always in the top 5 of hardest to kill? I can only speak from experience and everyone else can speak from conjecture and what they believe to be the truth. If it was so easy to counter then i should of been smashed on the regular cause its so easy. In the last 10 wars i may of been one shot maybe two times . So my experience from being in a almost top 200 alliance is vastly different from what others say it’d be. And that’s across all modes of war except equalizer. Maybe your level of play was higher than my level but top 200 isn’t that low and something to be content at. I think we were at 220 or 230 at one point. Maybe your above that and congrats if you are ! Just my personal experience and not conjecture.
Your other heroes are strong. I actually suspect your Ludwig tank is the weak link in your whole team.
Everyone has different rosters, different playstyles, different heroes they like to battle and hate to battle against.
Personally I would love to go against 6 Ludiwg tanks with my PTP account. Not all dispeller solutions, some of the teams are strong enough to just ram their way through. My favourite team is a combination of Lord Loki, C Sabina and Felton - that will beat Ludwig tanks 95% of the time.
My 2 FTP accounts would definitely struggle vs all Ludiwg teams as they just don’t have the roster depth to counter.

Based on my recent experience, you will be accused of being negative… So as a melancholy Dane once asked… whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune…
I mentioned Neema plus any dispeller.
With Neema firing first, Ludwig is not able to cast his taunt, only the mana buff. Here comes the dispeller into play.
Another anti Ludwig hero is Iris:
Fire her one turn before Ludwig fires on him and his neighbors. Then he fires and his taunt and buff will be dispelled at the end of the turn.
My favorite anti Ludwig is:
And Felton combined with an Taunter will work too
Last time I checked we were ranked in the top 70 in Hilaria‘s war based Alliance ranking.
In the game we are no 86 at the moment, but one member is out at the moment hunting titans.
Happy gaming
