I’ve found good counters against many common defence teams and have therefore tried to make a difficult one myself. My current defence team is left to right: Zimkitha, Ursena, Guinevere, Kingston, Seshat. The team does well. I rarely drop below 2500 cups, but I’m a bit surprised How often people take me out. Three questions:
Which team would you use against this defence?
Can I improve my defence team? My maxed 5*s in addition to the mentioned 5 are: Vivica, Joon, Anzogh, Hatter, Alice, Isarnia, Misandra and Khiona (Marjana aproaching). Maybe Alice? Which order would you recommend
I have 5 mysterious tonics. Would Tarlak deserve acsension? (only available alternative would be Margareth). My alliance fight 9* titans and an occasional 10*. I use Miki 3/70 or Emblemed Wu Kong, so titan-need is not desperate - but I think maybe Tarlak would be useful in green-stack raids and thus worth ascending? Or should I wait for something better?
Your defense team will never gain cups. You will always lose. Attacking teams can stack against whatever you put there so it won’t matter.
You want to make a defense to sustain cups. Which right now it sounds like is around 2500. Maybe a tweak and you would stay around 2550 or so but after 2400 it really doesn’t matter much.
As long as I got four or five purple tiles in the first three moves, I’ve got a good chance of a win. I’d then charge everyone and freeze one flank and snipe the other.
I think Alice hits harder than Kingston so maybe I’d drop her in, but I don’t know if the secondary effects synergise particularly.
If I were you, I’d change the order of the defence team to Seshat-Zimkitha-Guin-Ursena-Kingston.
Seshat dispels so she should fire first so as to remove buffs, such as riposte, from the attacker.
Zimkitha should fire earlier in the battle so she should be a flank.
