Telly is still one of the best tanks in game, Frigg is destructive and can destroy enemy team by herself + 2 strong damage dealers on wings
Also all heroes except tank are fast/v.fast
Why is mono purple bad on defense? I understand mono is bad in the RGB circle because it’s easily countered (attacker will be strong against you, you’ll be weak against him), but in the YP duo, it would seem that if an attacker used a lot of yellows to counter your purple, you’d say … “Great!” Especially with Ursena …
Expert players are better with building combos and since they can just dump as many tiles as needed into enemy . If going mono on offence vs mono defense, you only need 1 match or 4 tiles to kill most enemies…
On the other hand, current poll decided black mono is the best among recommended options
Mono anything is bad on defense because you essentially get none of the benefits of mono and all of the drawbacks. You don’t hit harder, you don’t charge at the same time, and you get slaughtered by even a 3:2 team.
I quite happily take a 3:2 yellow:red against Ursena and win most of the time. It only takes 6 tiles to kill her, even at +20 defense, and I can wait out the buff if she did fire. If I get 6 yellow tiles anywhere then Malosi prevents the reflection anyway.
That’s what I said, but mono holy would be too strong anyway. I usually don’t bring yellows vs Ursl, but in the case that the whole def will be purple, I would.
If Ursl will fire, I would try to wait and heal in between, but tile damage isn’t reflected, so your purple def will most likely die even without triggering specials.
Mono blue is the toughest because finely and cobalt can both wipe your team in one special…with Aegir and Krampus slowing you down you could be in trouble with a so so board quickly.
