Magni or Richard?

Hi guys,
I got Guinevere from Avalon event and I am trying to setup the best raid defense …
I am only doubtful about the Blu hero to put in the team…now the team is the following

But I would replace Magni with Richard…a Richard I can emblem to level 10.
Do you think that’s a better choice?
I think Magni is not so strong regarding defense and HP…even if he hits hard and has Fast mana…
I also have Athena.
What do you suggest guys?
Thanks

Mark

Magni’s HP is fine. His defense is low but will be buffed fairly often.

Issue with that defense though is that your 3 front heroes all have dispellable buffs, and there are tons of purple dispellers.

I agree with above that Athena is the best choice overall, maybe not the best defender though if that is all your are worried about.

Athena is deadly against Titan and in attack team but I am doubtful regarding raid defense…isn’t she weak?
Please slso consider i cannot give her emblems because she shares them with Zimkitha.
So…is Athena still the best choice for my team if compared with emblemed Richard and emblemed Magni?

Without emblems especially she would be for sure the worst of the 3 on raid defense. Just curious why that is most important for you though? It’s the least important to most. Not much gain to be had from it, but its your game. She will be a huge help to you everywhere else and it’s not like people are going to stomp all over your team just because she’s in there.

If you want the best flank I’d say Magni, I’ve experimented with Richard there and I wasn’t too thrilled. He’s not that great if he doesn’t go off before the enemy heroes do. Richard is much better tank than flank.

Well, it is important for me because I believe rainbow team on defense is the best choice…so I would like to choose the best blu hero I do have in my roster. Just that. Sometimes Magni doesn’t perform fine at all so I am wondering if I can improve solidity of my team with another Blu one

Sorry, I might have misunderstood you I thought this was a question of who to ascend. If you already have everyone ascended I still think Magni is your best option at flank, medium speed flanks are not ideal IMO.

Exactly Solipsism, I do already have all those heroes.
Sorry, I have not not been clear enough when I posted my question.
So you suggest Magni as best flank among those heroes. Ok. Thanks a lot for your help

Magni, no question. Your team would seriously lack damage with Richard in his place and Magni’s defense buff would make Guin and Elkanen that much harder to take down.
