Just replace Gorgotha with Great Maw and you’ll have one of the fastest teams in the game!

Maw’s second and third trait are really helpful, but it’s not the end of the world if you don’t have it. I’d say it’s still very strong. IK’s second and third traits rarely come in to play. Getting the first trait for the other 3 isn’t that hard so I would aim for that.

Gorgotha’s not bad in that position, though in my opinion, once Maw has eaten something, it’s also a tank (via all the health it has) plus it hits like a truck.

If no opponent teams had Maw, I’d consider Gorgotha a very viable option, perhaps better even. But since opponents regularly have Maw, I think a Maw in the top spot is best.

I just set it to my team today, haven’t been attacked yet. I also haven’t played a team with the same setup so I can’t say how the AI handles it. But I know it’s better than my old Maw team which had a successful defense about 1/3 of the time, which isn’t bad.

The Great Maw\*\*\*  
Infernal King\*\*\*  
Mercy\*\*\*  
Sheggra\*\*  
Holy Banner (Yellow/Yellow)

This team feels like cheating.

Do you think this order is better than the afformentioned order? (Maw/Mercy/Sheggra/IK)?

Yeah, it’s pretty damn strong. Recent hurdles have made it a bit more vulnerable than it used to be (Mab freezing you isn’t fun, and Korvhash/Manicore can deny Maw) but it’s still very potent on PC/mobile. For Console, it’s probably one of the top few at the moment.
