Showcase one of teams named by Red Hook. This video shows 5 win matches in a row.
The Oddballs is a ,,damage-stress" team, here are roles of characters:
1st: Hellion (accuracy trinket + damage trinket) - deathblow dealer
2nd: Highwayman (damage trinkets) - damage dealer
3rd: Jester (damage trinket + dodge trinket) - deathblow dealer
4th: Occultist (stress trinket + dodge trinket) - stress dealer
PROS:
1) Mark synergy (Occultist + Highwayman)
2) Great damage output
3) Great stress output
4) Great DoT output
5) 2 disruptors
6) 4 deathblowers
CONS:
1) Marks are a menace
2) Stuns are a menace
3) Stress is a menace
4) Low healing potential
The Oddballs is an odd damage team with great strength of stress and DoT. All characters are deathblowers (if we count Occultist’s „Sacrificial stab“ on afflicted character), next you have a mark synergy, 2 disruptors and 2 (self)healers. Sadly this team is vulnerable against mark and stress teams.
I tried to play a few strategies, like „mark team“, „mix damage + DoT“, „double finisher“ and „mix damage + stress“. I tried both variantions of Hellion (damager / stresser), both variantions are actually good. And Highwayman (bandit / gunslinger), the bandit is much better choice.
My advice: Start with Highwayman for opening the riposte, next use Hellion for debuffing the frontline / dealing damage, then Jester for buffing the team and lastly Occultist for applying some stress.
What a ride… Firstly I didn’t expect these results, because the team is… really odd. All deathblowers, only not great (self)healers and most importantly, without buffs you will miss every single target. The team’s downside is in (stress)healing potential, you don’t have much options as a cure.
I’m not sure, why the opponent in 3rd match left the game, he was on winning side. Even with perfect score, I cannot give them the highest rating, because of players, abbilities and most importantly versability. If I faced at least one harder opponent with decent team (mark / based team), the score would be way more different. This time I was just lucky. So… this was kinda mid.
Rating: 3/5
