Are there heroes you’re likely to use for this Tournament that you normally don’t make use of anymore?
Are there heroes you plan to power level for this Tournament, or level before the next time a Tournament like this one rolls around?
What are you thinking about using for your Defense Team?
Are there heroes you expect to see on Enemy Defenses that you think you’ll have a harder time dealing with than usual because of the restrictions or special rule in this Tournament?
Which of your heroes will you be likely to use on your Attack Teams?
Will the restrictions or special rule of this Tournament change your usual approach to color stacking or team building?
Are there elements of this week’s Tournament that are unclear to you?
Do you have feedback on the Tournament matchmaking?
Here is who I am taking into this next tournament on my main:
All my 3 star yellows have very little emblems or none at all. Expecting to see a lot of Briennes and Melias in this one. The protect talent on Pallys counts as a buff I am assuming?
When it comes to Buff Booster, Gunnar is one of the best tanks IMO. I’ve had great success running him in the past.
Flanking with Melia, backed up by Mnesseus with a small defense boost. Mnesseus to dispel too since the attacker also benefits from attack boosted buffs.
This time I’ve put Chochin in place of Balthazar; I figured that having his wide area attack on flank will be valuable with the attack boosts provided to spread damage all over the enemy. Put Namahage as my other wing; he hits very hard even without a buff.
I love the 3* tournaments. Find them to be heaps of fun. My defence is below. Trying out Bauchen for the first time flanked by Gunnar and Brianne. Double Melia in the wing for the final element of Buff Boosting.
No idea how my defence will do, especially with a new tank in play.
I will set a grade A defense (I’m sure in proportion of 99%). Bauchan tank, flanked by two fast greens and 2 fast blues as wings. The greens will be Mnesseus and Hisan I think. Mnesseus is a must set, since my tank will attract a blue stack, therefore Gunnar. Of course, Belith may also be an option, but is average. Besides, I rarely set healers in defense at raid tournaments. And I use only these 3 colours because I wanna cancel the attacker advantage on yellow, especially. Melia is also a must have in any offensive line-up at this tournament. The main reason I don’t set any purple. I don’t set yellow either, because is the worst colour for a defense. Kailani is slow, Melia’s special is offensive.
Like I said many times before at buff boosters tournaments, it is not only about having buffs. It is more important to not let the enemy have them. This is why any defensive line-up should have a dispeller flank. And like the bloody battles, the speed is very important. Slow tanks/flanks will only result in heavy defeats. Gunnar may look good on paper, but green has 2 dispellers faster than him, so it’s hopeless. Gil-ra is a good tank, but shines only in rush attacks tournaments. At this tournament, not so good with Melia out there. Of course, no matter how we analyse, any colour has advantages and disadvantages. I always choose A > D (advantage > disadvantage). What a coincidence, because I always also choose A > D(attack > defense). “Attack is the secret of defense” - Sun Tzu. That’s why my defenses are always most fast and lethal, using healers only in AW.
Good luck everyone! Since all colours are allowed, we need a lot of it
I could set a few of the defenses in this thread, most seem pretty solid, tho sadly no Buchan to tank for me and mnesus isnt levelled yet. I’ve come up with this instead. Any reason it’s terrible?
Nice argument @Scarecrow, so Belith is not best fo flank? No healer?
So based on what I have, can be like this?
Valen - Brienne - Bauchan - Mnesseus - Gato
Gato in wing is not efficience, because he can block ailment nearbly.
Yeah, I use Vodnik, the best 3* wing in the game. As wing may be the only 3* hero one shot/one kill. The enemies will likely have a lot of mana when Vodnik fires.
Well sadly I do not have Vodnik, I just doing 5xpull in pirate, the only I want is Valeria, and I get Valeria is enough for me. Next Pirate maybe he will come to my roster, I hope.
OK, based on my roster, which one is best?
Valen - Brienne - Bauchan - Mnesseus - Gato
or
Valen - Brienne - Bauchan - Mnesseus - Melia/Bane/Squirel Wabbit/Namahage?
