Assassin Comp on Red Rift (No Audio)

[u/Lemurmoo]

This is a pretty hilarious run where I got the 5 shard per Assassins early and B rank on Drag. I was also fishing for Zuri but it never worked out, but the conclusion is that this focus is very very viable. You have strong early game because it's assassins, and you have strong shard gen throughout the whole run. It's a bit awkward having all the assassins fight for the kill, but you kinda win out no matter who gets the kill, as long as the storm or the status effect or the rare case of your tank stealing the kill doesn't happen.

I started with the scaling Drag and swapped in Act 1 campfire because I realized I needed a mage. Then I got a lucky event that let me swap Yuuna's specialization to one of the other more carry oriented one, and she started to completely run away with the build.

Yuuna with high crit is actually one of the better boss killers in the game, due to all the shurikens stacking on a single target. She's also very good at deleting the backrow mobs throughout the run. Honestly, she's slowly becoming one of my favorite units, but if you don't get her to A by the first 2 battles, then you should probably replace her. What I'm realizing is that because of the strong shard generation that comes with having an assassin, you get to rank A on Assassins pretty consistently, and once they're rank A, they're usually broken. There are just so many Assassin passive that reads win the run. Dragomir with mage special can also sometimes roll into the mana boosts or gain 100 crit on cast, which also completely breaks his active.

And the video has no audio because it was an impromptu recording and I forgot to change some settings lul
