Showcase one of teams named by Red Hook. This video shows 5 win matches.
Cast out is a ,,stress-DoT" team, here are roles of characters:
1st: Leper (damage trinkets) - damage dealer
2nd: Grave robber (stress trinket + dodge trinket) - stress dealer
3rd: Jester (dodge trinket + damage trinket) - damage dealer
4th: Occultist (stress trinket + dodge trinket) - stress dealer
PROS:
1) Mark synergy (Occultist + Grave robber)
2) Great damage output
3) Great stress output
4) Great DoT output
5) 2 disruptors
6) 3 deathblowers
CONS:
1) Marks are a menace
2) Stuns are a menace
3) Stress is a menace
4) DoT is a menace
5) Low healing potential
Cast out is a stress team with great strength of DoT and pure damage. All characters can make AoE damage, next you have 3 deathblowers (if we count Occultist’s „Sacrificial stab“ on afflicted character), 2 disruptors, 2 (self)healers and a mark synergy. Sadly this team is vulnerable against mark and stress teams.
I tried to play a few strategies, such as „mark team“, „mix damage + DoT“, „the finishers“ and „full stress“. I tried both variantions of Grave robber (pure damage / DoT stresser), both variantions are actually good.
My advice: Good choice, if your Leper have a skill „Purge“, if yes, start with it. If not, start with Occultist for disruption. Next use Jester for buffing the team, then Grave robber for applying some DoT.
Now this team. It looks not very consistant due to healing situation and not-great mark synergy, but with this team you can create a great pressure to the opponent, thanks to AoE damage and 2 main deathblowers (Grave robber & Jester). Sadly I lost few matches against harder opponents - 2x darkest players with mark and stress team and 1x against a champion player with based mark team (solo Leper VS. Occultist + Musketeer both at the death’s door). Mark teams are real menace here, you have no clearing skills and mostly disruption won’t work here.
Even with this score, I can give them a “mid” rate. Not great, not bad, but honestly fun to play.
Rating: 3/5
