Showcase one of teams named by Red Hook. This video shows 5 win matches.
Open season is a ,,damage-stress" team, here are roles of characters:
1st: Bounty hunter (Grappling Mits + accuracy trinket) - deathblow dealer
2nd: Houndmaster (dodge trinket + stress trinket) - DoT dealer
3rd: Antiquarian (Tears of the Lost + dodge trinket) - DoT dealer
4th: Occultist (stress trinket + dodge trinket) - healer
PROS:
1) Mark synergy (Occultist + Bounty hunter / Houndmaster)
2) Great damage output
3) Great stress output
4) Great DoT output
5) Great healing potential
6) 2 guardians
7) 2 disruptors
8) 2 deathblowers
CONS:
1) Marks are a menace
2) Stuns are a menace
3) Stress is a menace
4) DoT is a menace
5) Disruption is a menace
Open season is a damage team, that combines also stress and DoT. You have 2 guardians, 2 disruptors, 2 deathblowers (if we count Occultist’s „Sacrificial stab“ on afflicted character) and a powerful mark synergy. Sadly this team is vulnerable against mark and stress teams.
I tried to play a few strategies, such as „mix damage + DoT“, „double finisher“, „mark team“ and „full stress“. Probably the „mix damage + DoT / stress“ is the best option for play.
My advice: Start with Bounty hunter OR Occultist for disruption, next use Antiquarian for regeneration spam. Lastly Houndmaster for applying some DoT.
Quite a nice team! You have many choices for making a pressure, via mark synergy or just spamming stress+DoT. Unfortunately the team is highly disruptible and it can make the match much challenging. I lost 2x, both times against darkest players, one with based stress team, one with based DoT team. I have no idea, why the opponent in 3rd match just surrendered, when he was still on winning side? Weird. Anyway, not a bad team!
Rating: 4/5
