Showcase one of basic teams in Butcher's Circus. This video shows 5 win matches.
Iron dog is a ,,damage-stress" team, here are roles of characters:
1st: Crusader (damage trinkets) - damage dealer
2nd: Flagellant (Gauntlet of Absolution + damage trinket) - DoT dealer
3rd: Man at arms (Protector’s Kite + stun resist trinket) - guardian
4th: Houndmaster (dodge trinkets) - guardian
PROS:
1) Great damage output
2) Great stress output
3) Great DoT output
4) Great healing potential
5) 2 guardians
6) 2 stunners
CONS:
1) DoT is a menace
2) Stress is a menace
3) Marks are a menace
4) Stuns are a menace
Iron dog is a damage team with great strength of stress and DoT. You have 3 (self)healers, 2 guardians and 2 stunners. Sadly this team is vulnerable against stress and DoT teams.
I tried to play a few strategies, like „original setup“, „support Crusader“, „the guardians“ and „full stress“. The „original setup“ was took from youtube video of Sheperd Doggy [COMMON FLAGELLANT W! The Butcher's Circus]. I tried both variantions of Man at arms (damager / stresser), it’s better to stick with stress variantion.
My advice: Start with Crusader for stunning someone, next use Flagellant for applying DoT. Then Man at arms for buffing the team OR guarding someone. Lastly Houndmaster for guarding someone or applying DoT.
What a good team! The duo „Crusader-Flagellant“ is always great, and if they are supported by one tanky and one dodgy guardians, you can beat everyone very easily. Sadly… I cannot give them the highest rate, because I played only against these players (not challenging) and I lost once against darkest player with a lame based team [Ancient chinese special]. You can make a pressure, healing is good and buffs from Man at arms are always useful. I like the team, but because of players and the score… mid rate.
Rating: 3/5
