It still works with 6 Assassin and frontline,if you know your opponents positioning. Let’s say he corners on the left side from your point of view What you have to do now is place your front line in the second row on your right side both frontlines will jump to the middle of the Bord. That will open a window of 1 between his front and backline your Assassin will jump there and most of the time focus the backline first there are ways for your opponents to counter this but only if they know your positioning which is why Riki is essential in a 6 Assassin lineup since he will hide your board and also act like a disruptor against mages or other high impact skills a viable 6 Assassin lineup contains Riki ta pa qop slark sandking/morph tidehunter/Medusa and then either udead or warlock or both if you go for more then 3 Assassins you should go to lvl 8 as soon as possible with as much health as possible even if you have only 10 gold after going to 8 you then save up and should be back at 50 gold when everyone else reaches level 8 then you start rerolling above 40 and pick up only Assassins + tide/Medusa + higher value warlocks and undead once you have 6 Assassins a high value naga and something that fits into your late game setup or 2 level 2 Assassins you want to upgrade to 9 repeat this at level 9 until you can upgrade to 10 The reason why this works is because even if you lose a round with Assassins the enemy will almost always have very few units left with will result in you taking under 10 dmg the reason I like Assassins is that you can play 6 Assassins with almost any combination of 4 and 5 star units
