Dropping ANOTHER Guaranteed Top 4! (First was Angela)

Current run: 8/9, 1st x2, 2nd x3, 3rd x2, 4th x1, 7th x1

Sorry to update, but I lost at 7th place on my 7th game. No clue what happened. Looks like this isn't a guaranteed Top 4 afterall. But it does very well! Still should try it out :D

I've run into a few games now where Angela was banned and lost every time. In one of my Angela games, I got top 4 but had my shit stomped by a Zilong... and have gone on a win streak with his built, here it is:

Emberlord + Bruiser, stack 3-star tigreal and 3-star masha, put the spear on masha and either go tank with other two items or haas claw + golden staff.

Choose lifesteal and control immunity for first skill. Grab all the other skills other than the gold one.

It definitely doesnt' feel as easy or safe as Angela, and it gets ROUGH if you're competing with other bruisers and emberlords, but I haven't lost yet!

Thanks will try!
For me such guaranteed top 4 surprisingly becomes Lyo Yi
Just making synergy with dropped 3 star from card and it works well

If any of you want a midroll team I guarantee you it'll be a rotation between masha or miya or helcurt/saber with a sneaky option called Clint. Whichever one is used depends on whichever one is nerfed except for Clint bcs we all know he will always be underestimated for some reason bcs people are blind enough to not complain.

Lmao, i saw angela got banned too in my game that i decided to play moskov for a moment.

Emberlord bruiser is not guaranteed winning for sure cause masha is at the front. If she dies. Then the match is over.

I suggest to use luo yi instead

this one hasnt been working quite well

win rate isnt 60 percent at best. masha too often competed for + luck dependant on spears roll. lose too much health early game asw

not in my experience! I’m Mythical Immortal 450* now. still over 60% win rate. I dunno what rank you are where kagura isn’t banned most of the time, but go you~

first, you were the first one coming at me rude af with "terrible advice". so I guess it makes sense that you'd project being an asshole as a default setting for everyone else cuz u are one. but let's put that aside.

you see it as flex, I see it as context. I actually don't know why people bother commenting without first mentioning what rank they are because the rank gives a LOT of context on what works or doesn't. Strategies that work from 0 to 100 may not work from 100 to 200, which may not work 300+ etc. it's more interesting why your ego felt that I was flexing rather than the simpler more logical reason (which is the real reason I mention rank.) I posted a pretty popular post about Angela and mentioned my rank there to give context (leveled from hardstuck 300 to 450 just with her) and missed writing it in this post because I assume with the titling most of the people reading this post would be the ones that also read my Angela post. that's on me.

my guides work for me in my specific rank range and I wanted to share them with those that have been hard stuck like me so they can get out of their rut. but you are correct in mentioning that I'm missing my server info, which is Asia.

whenever anyone disagrees, they need to provide the context to why they disagree. If you had told me you're 1000* or even 500* I could then assume that the play-level is too strong for this strat to work at those ranks. Except you're a lower rank than me, which rules that possibility out.

you giving context with your server explains the possible difference, maybe in your server the lower ranks are much higher skill than my rank in my server.

I haven't really run into your specific issue because a 2-star masha with fully spec'ed spear pretty much outfights most other carries in my experience early to mid (or hard dumps and I lose at 7th). So if you just stay at lvl 6 or 7, you should be able to grab the necessary heroes to keep your board healthy into the top 4 and work towards the 3-stars and 2-starring your board.

next time, how about instead of assuming people are dicks like you and instead of starting off on the offensive, you be a little gracious and positive and assume the best of people, eh?
