I choose green, anyone with me. Loyalty seems the tankiest of them all.

567

Not sure I will use any to be honest

Any reason particularly why? They might be used for guild wars.

569

Sorry I wasnt aware. In general PvP matches I cant see them getting into my invade teams

Tankiest is Brown, for sure. Stoneskin as well as Armor gain, plus an additional 5 health and armor in PVP.

571

I don’t like the purple one because reasons…

572

Green is the tankiest?

@killerman3333, I’m never playing an RPG with you

Every time you cast a spell buff the whole team. I feel goblins are coming back in a big way with the green statue.

574

Yeah that’s called a Support role, not a Tank.

Would you replace goblin shaman with the statue or no.

576

I might but that’s beside the point.

I think you might not know what a Tank is. Tanks absorb damage.

i am used to tank plus, zarya being a support tank. I know the difference between tank and support but lately the lines have become blurred thanks to overwatch.

578

Tanks are tanks, support is support, hybrids are hybrids. Doesn’t seem complicated to me.

Overwatch blends everything to be fair, but this is GoW.

OMG that purple statue. Time to build a summoning/sacrifice team with, maybe, a Crimson Bat as the damage source?

Edit: drat. Missed the word “random” in the skill description. Less bonkers than I thought.

Even if it wasn’t random, he would still be horrible. He doesn’t add magic to himself, the summoner and the sacrifice won’t really benefit from the extra magic, it’s a lot of work just to add magic to a single troop. I’d say you’re better off going with double Brian.

582

Can’t say any of these get me excited. Suddenly underwhelmed with 2.1. All these new systems and a reduction in current resources to build these guys? No thanks.

583

I’m all doom and gloom too, but I’m hoping it’s
all in my head.
