Summoners War : Team Spotlight 3

It’s been awhile since I’ve done any team spotlight because most people are using the stupid water priest / war bear combo build and there really hasn’t been many other impressive defensive teams.

Finally today, I encountered what i thought would be an easy team to defeat, that ends up demolishing my team.. shredding them into pieces. This is the typical story of a hunter becoming the prey. The team is slightly similar to the one described in Team Spotlight 2.

Setup:

Leader: Wind Griffin – Leader skill 30% Attkpower to all wind monsters, Savior (increase Attk gauge on cast and ASPD for 2 turns)

Wind Yeti – AOE heal, Crowd Controls

Wind Imp – Hurricane Swing (one of the strongest AOE in game and its only a 2* monster)

Wind Sylphid – seriously OP for a 4*monster , AOE ATTACK, AOE SHIELD, and a super high based HP – bread and butter of the build.

With the above setup, I sent my team of 3 fire (I probably made a mistake sending the fire Yeti but let’s not talk about it >.<) units thinking that the opponent is harmless and couldn’t put a dent to me. However I was wrong.

How it works

Wind imp acts as a decoy as the first target choice for the opponent to target due to its low health and ability to deal some serious damage.  If the opponent doesn’t kill off the wind imp before his turn is over, he’s probably gonna lose.
Sylphid will cast his AOE shield while Yeti will heal everyone back nearly to full HP. This is where the Griffin comes into play. With the ASPD buff and the damage increase passive, the team will be able to break through the elemental resist and cause some serious damage to the opponent.

Note, you might want to equip your Imp with some HP runes to tank the initial burst. Your main attack damage, actually comes from the buff and debuff from griffin, CCs from Yeti and AOE from Sylphid.

Weak Against

You need a burst team with high attack speed to quickly take down the Imp fast. Once the Imp is dead, you’ll have more breathing space to pick out the other targets.

I think water priest is gonna get nerf sooner or later 😛
