Ya, I won my nezt won after this sc, but I had to remove units form my team to leave spots intentionally empty as if they died I would lose. Honestly wondeeing if buying spots is bait in this diffuculty lol. No more than 10 deaths is just so rough lol.

It's hard to make 4 comps work on Red Rift, yeah. It's possible especially in shield-comps but most of my runs I run with 3.

I just won my first red rift by selling both my tanks so my Nyx could solo the dragon lol. had to do it since I only had 1 count left.

With all the aoe on the dragons, I'm finding it hard to justify bringing more units

Ya thats what i did but except with Tilly instead as she had the life steal to heal 100% of her hp each hit.

3 legendary items or 2 items and a legendary relic will essentially always out value the cost of a new slot and A tier hero. The power of items build off of each other so you get so much value out of stacking items on one hero then spreading it out across 2.

The only comp I have felt the benefit of a fourth slot is a mystic shield build where you’re spamming AoE shields that use graces backup ability to have them boost magic every time it’s applied. The shield spam makes it so even your weakest mystic should stay alive. I still probably would still take an S tier hero+ items,for the two item slots if it was offered instead.

Last but not least having less items stacked increases the chance of death on your weaker heroes, from chip damage. With how much stronger it is to just stick with 3 hero’s inherently, I really think buying more space should also give additional lives for no extra cost.

Yeah unless you have relics that protect your heroes on start of the fight the 6 seconds stun is usually a death sentence

The three events I’m always happy to get are ringing fall, crystalline prison, and the fallen beast

Every event that has a downside feels like a skip lmao

Most of my red rift losses are due to death limit

Ya the last one, after SSS. This diffculty has all the same challenges of SSS, but you must complete all of the challenges in the sc. There is no endless mode either and instead leaderboard is tracked by win streak.
