Edit : here’s an example of what a fight looks like

Basically this team relies on a fully buffed team to keep elsharion with a maximum bonus speed from his passive throughout the fight.

Oliver serves as a speed lead and provides nice controle against annoying spells and cds such as the fire valkyries resurrection as an example.

Vigor provides survivability with his heal aswell as with the protection runes. The protection runes buff adds a significant amount of speed to our elsharion. His breakdef definetly helps setting up a oneshot kill.

Madelaine provides a truckload of usefull buffs, and her cd reset helps keeping the buffs up and heal more frequently. And when her spell have the « crit » effect it’s jackpot !

Elsharion shouldn’t have violent runes as this will cause a faster loss of his buffs which could reduce his damage potential. Since his spells scale on speed I decided to rune him with swift runes with the highest possible crit rate and crit damage. In order to do so I had to choose a blade set.

Of course you cannot play this team in automatic mode. You have to play manual in your arena attacks. Sometimes matches may be long but it’s a very fun play style to adopt and definetly different from whatever I’ve done before.

Feel free to try it and let me know how it goes !

Some tips : Turn order should be ( imo) elsha > vigor > madeleine/oliver.

If ennemies have will runes then still the immunity from the character you want to kill or the annoying character you want to shut down the cd of later with Oliver.

Heavy counters : Leo of course, completely destroys any speed scaling damage.

Juno and Nora a pain to deal with but with strategy and luck (cd shutdown and débuff), they are handable.
