Anthrax is good at killing things (even after his own death), but I wouldn't bet on Anthrax surviving 15 different encounters. Couple of solid hits from some Tartarian and Anthrax is gone. But of course, Zen probably came up with some idea I haven't thought of
|
Hmm... Phoenix Pyre+Regenerate+Banefire of DOOM = teh h4wt, but without the Sandals of the Crane, survival is still a problem. Maybe there's an E1 A1 empowerment involved?
|
Phoenix Pyre is not very helpful in such contest, if the opposition has managed to land enough hits when your SC was conscious, surely it will have no problems doing it again to unconscious SC. To me this plan only looks good if the goal is to annihilate enemy SC at any cost. I'm getting really curious what Zen has came up with...
Generally, I don't think one can design SC who could reliably win such a contest. It's more a matter of luck (between few designs). I had 3 designs which could do pretty well, but each of them had a weak spot, other design could easily exploit. I think that it will be pair matching which will decide the contest.

Re: The Grand Anti-SC competition!
I'd like to participate, but I cannot decide between two ideas. So I ask some questions first:
1) What about equipping clams or other gem generators? Will all battles be fought in the same round or one after the other, allowing gem generators (who take up a pretty valuable spot) to work?
2) Are wished for pretenders identical to what I see in the actual Black UnitView Map from SaberCherry?
3) I guess prophets are not elligible, right?
4) What about equipping the Shroud of the Battle Saint? Am I able to choose a ridiculous huge bless effect or is there some limit? (Same actually applies for any sacred commander who might bless him- or herself.)
5) What about morale? Do I need to equip some berserking item to prevent routing for combatants who still have something to loose?
6) Do battles take place in truly neutral dominion with balanced heat/cold scale, like an arena death match?
I know that I am always too complicated, sorry...  ...and never mind the bless quesiton, for I do not want to choose a sacred combatant anyway - I'm just curious about the options...

nope, battles happen in same round, so clams are useless.

Yeah.

No bless other than the morale, I'm afraid.

Well, sc's rarely rout anyway, but it IS possible.

Yeah, I will create each nation with balanced scales, and fight the match in a province that has land connection to most, if not all, capitals, and a few hiding stone idols present.

Re: The Grand Anti-SC competition!
Hmm. I wonder how many first-action casts of Petrify one's likely to see.
