Showcase one of teams named by Red Hook. This video contains defeats and victories during the set of matches.
The Plushies is a ,,damage-DoT" team, here are roles of characters:
1st: Plague doctor (accuracy trinket + damage trinket) - DoT dealer
2nd: Leper (accuracy trinket + damage trinket) - damage dealer
3rd: Highwayman (damage trinket + dodge trinket) - damage dealer
4th: Grave robber (dodge trinket + damage trinket) - DoT dealer
PROS:
1) Great damage output
2) Great stress output
3) Great DoT output
4) 3 disruptors
5) 2 deathblowers
CONS:
1) Low healing potential
2) Marks are a menace
3) Stuns are a menace
4) Stress is a menace
5) Disruption is a menace
The Plushies is a damage team with great strenght of DoT and little stress. All characters can make AoE damage, next you have 3 disruptors, 2 healers and 2 deathblowers. Unfortunately this team is weak against every possible team, no matter on player’s rank.
I tried to play a few strategies, such as „mix damage + DoT“, „the finishers“, „full stress“ and „full DoT. I tried both variantions of Highwayman (bandit / gunlinger), the bandit version seems as the only viable version, but surprisingly the gunslinger version is also possible. DO NOT PLAY STRESS TACTICS, THEY ARE USELESS!
My advice: Start with Leper for dealing massive damage, next use Plague doctor for applying some DoT. Then Highwayman - if he is bandit, open the riposte, if gunslinger, use „Vendetta“ skill. Lastly Grave robber for applying some DoT or damage. Very good choice, if your Grave robber has a skill „Toxin trickery“. Without it, she will be killed very soon.
Well, well, well… You didn't expect a new video to pop up here introducing a new team, did you? Thanks to @RedHookStudios , who created the plushies in this order, I decided and promised them that I would try to play the whole series of matches. So… firstly it was Plague doctor, next (Shambler) Leper, Highwayman and Grave robber at last. And… oh, boi… OH… BOI…
This team sux! Nice, that you have great damagers and deathblowers… but look at the positions. LOOK AT IT! It’s horrible. Plague doctor in 1st position is nightmare, she cannot do much and she will be ALWAYS targeted as first.
Also the healing (stress) situation. Practically there’s no healing. Before Plague doctor's healing, someone will die or move to the frontline (for Leper - to the backline).
For the first time I decided to show all played matches, even the defeats. Do you see the lenght of video? Yeah, for those spectators, who wanted from me to post also the lost matches in previous showcases, this is the reason, why I didn’t uploaded them. I hope, that you will enjoy / you’ve enjoyed the suffering with me too.
I played against all players ranks and… hehe, your chances for victory are very low. Novices have RNGsus on theirs side, veterans have great skills and darkests are playing only lame based teams. IF you are very lucky, you’ve could won some match against novices, but don't expect any glorious results.
Normally I would show only 5 victory matches, but since Red Hook published a plushie’s image in different positions, I’ve decided to try also this party, but only for once. In this case you have a better chances for victory, because of positions. The team looks like „The Unusual Suspects“ from Darkest Dungeon 2 (changing Leper to Man at arms), but that party is horrible in Butcher’s Circus.
About music: It. Perfectly. Fits. Great song for this team. You’ve should listen the whole lyrics and you will understand it.
Conclusion: If you have a masochistic desires OR the urge to prove to yourself that you can do more, DON’T BE A PLUSHIE AND GO FOR IT!
