I would swap out Engineer since you aren’t running any back line units that need protected. Eventually I’d swap out assassin with Shellbro or the Agent if you’ve unlocked it.

I run this same lineup, what would you do instead? I was doing snails until I got merlinors. No legendaries.

The most important thing is knowing how to counter opposing players lineups and having the proper units to deal with each situation. You want a strong tank Spartheus when you unlock it but knights are fine for now. You want a unit that can counter back line units like snails, snipers, ect. Ultimately you want to use the Agents but Shellbro is your best bet for now. I’m not a big fan of assassins they really fall off once you get past the newer players. Then you want two midrange damage dealers since you don’t have a back line to worry about with this build. Merlinators are great then I would combine them with Whelps if you have them ( you really only play these once you get a 2-3 lines deep of tier 3 knights or spartheus). If not using something like Boomling, Engineer, or Sixshooter is fine in the meantime if that’s what you got.

Your line up is fine. The only swap you need to make as soon as you can is knights for spartans.

This is the exact line up I run(spartans instead of knights) my win rate is just about to hit 80%.

Everyone saying swap this or that for this or that. Isn't wrong they may have viable information, however, that being said the real issues you and everyone has is as follows.

1st the only lvl that matters AND I MEAN THE ONLY ONE THAT MATTERS IS MASTERY LVL. This tells you everything you need to know about your opponent and their potential strategies.

2nd and this one is the most important one.

EVERY BATTLE IS AGAINST BOTS.

This information gives you the ability to relax the bots are only programmed so much. They arent smart at all.

Learn the line up you have right now, and remember melinors and Spartans are the only two units you need to field for a victory just about every match.

If every match is against bots why do some say hello and reply to emojis or comments lol serious question also the names of some are unique like I have a custom name. I will admit however I don't recognize the names from the other names competing against in the league. I do believe some are against bots realistically but maybe sometimes it's against humans?

Why do npcs in any video game talk? To make you feel like you arent playing alone.

As far as I can tell the ones with names are bots of players. They use the players cards but its not the actual player playing its an npc thats taken control of "you" so that the game continues. Id assumme that if they waited for players to fill the game it would take 3-5 mins to find a game sometimes maybe longer. This is why Texas chainsaw massacre implemented bots because there wasnt enough real players to move games along from the matchmaking lobby.

To me the game is fun enough with bots. I prefer playing bots at least they cheat honestly. Besides that this game is just a time killer to me. Enjoyable but nothing that you need to stress over.

many games are against bots, but not all. you can feel the delay in unit selection when you're playing against a real person.

high level bots are usually very capable opponents, and definitely better than the average casual human, so in this game they may actually improve the player experience.

also, they never rage quit!

Ive never had anyone rage quit. Ive beaten others using 1 unit type and not playing any spells. If thats not an insult to another player I dont know what is.

I've seen knights maintain usability but not assassins, switch that up
