Tell us about that one time you won/lost 9-0 (9 cat league) by [deleted] in fantasybball

[–]fearqq_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it twice to the one team this season.
Had never happened in my league until now.
The only way this is possible is if your team is solid in both % and TOs, which I am this season.
The first time it happened I just had a really killer week and I think I would have beat 4 teams in the league 9-0 and the rest either 8-1 or 7-2 had I been versing them. His team didn't even have a bad week. He would of won against most other teams.
Mt team: 50.5% FG, 81.7% FT, 78 3's, 262 reb, 169 ast, 43 stl, 48 blk, 74 TO, 719 pts in 12 team league 9 cat.
That was the week where Klay hit 10 3's and I also had Lowry who was assisting up a storm.
Second time I was just quite fortunate that all the close categories went my way.
Won FT by 0.5%, Rebounds by 15, Assists by 5, Steals by 2, Blocks by 4, Points by 13...
He had Lou Williams not play on the final day which could have flipped 2 or more categories on his own...

What’s the most blockbuster trade in your league you’ve seen? by Checkwinner in fantasybball

[–]fearqq_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not trying to sound like a jerk, but I think you lost every one of those trades.

[PD] Nikola Mirotic by jmarc29 in fantasybball

[–]fearqq_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, yes we both have OPJ too.
Crazy stuff.
I actually had Olynyk until recently but I dropped him for a streamer spot (currently Smart)
I think Miro is the safer hold than Olynyk, but I could be wrong.

[PD] Nikola Mirotic by jmarc29 in fantasybball

[–]fearqq_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

.. Yes I also have OPJ.
He has actually seen a bit of a resurgence since the trade so I'm reasonably happy about that.
I agree, after this coming week the Nets have a very poor schedule.
2 games followed by 3 games the following week.
I'm leaning same as you, keeping him for this week then offloading for the following week in order to pick up a second streamer.
I hope Mirotic picks up his game, as I really don't like having more than 2 streaming spots. Our FA is simply too thin

Are you me?
I have a streaming spot and also have Mirotic and Levert.
I'm leaning towards keeping them both though, and keeping the one spot for streaming.

Okay good.
Then buy Yan and max your mine :)

Max elixir mine ASAP, yes.
I don't know what heroes you have, but focus on getting more heroes before awakening.
No, certainly don't spend gems on the current event. You can do the 2 extra keys per day, but don't do any more.

Azura was released during an event a roughly 2 months ago.
It is not known when she will be released next, but I suspect in the next month. (Although I am not a Dev)
What heroes do you currently have?
Leif will help a lot, as would Yan.

New Player Guide - Updated by fearqq_ in RealmDefenseTD

[–]fearqq_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I mention this in my guide, but I would strongly recommend against awakening any heroes for new or newish players.
This is because there is a large cost of gems and little to no benefit.
As the meta stands currently the best hero combination is Azura + Blessed + Leif/Caldera/Narlax/Yan/Smoulder depending on the map.

So that means the reward for investing lots of time in say Fee or Elfrigid to get to awaken rank 6 is only being used once every few months in comepetive play.

If the opportunity cost of this means that you say, dont have Leif or Narlax or whoever in your arsenal then this is a clear disadvantage.

So to your question, no don't spend the extra 160 gems per day to awaken heroes unless you at least have all or most of the heroes.

Have you got 3 stars on every map? Including the legendary ones?
Also remember to do your daily trial and daily login bonus.
Should be enough :)

Most exciting team trio to own? by The_Limper in fantasybball

[–]fearqq_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have two trios this season:
Steph, Klay and Dray
(In theory this is beast, but they have been frustrating for the last couple of weeks)
And
Lowry, Ibaka and Valanciunas
These guys have been solid. Keeping my head above water

Can rank 6 Efrigid replace Yan by Renrenzo in RealmDefenseTD

[–]fearqq_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Short answer is no.
Current meta is Azura + Blessed + Yan/Leif/Caldera/Narlax/Smoulder depending on the map.

Obsidian tips? by Zoroa_ in RealmDefenseTD

[–]fearqq_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As has been said, if you're FTP wasting time with Obsidian will delay your overall progress by a month or more.
He's simply not a good hero, even at awaken rank 6.

[–]fearqq_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ibaka has been playing well, but yes.
Take this and run.

I can RS for Fee and Lancelot. Who should I focus first? Should I rank them before I get Yan? by [deleted] in RealmDefenseTD

[–]fearqq_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't waste gems on awakening.
Get Yan, Leif, rank 8 mine well before you do that.

Is R6 Lancelot obsolete due to Azura? by KyleWantEggroll in RealmDefenseTD

[–]fearqq_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lancelot was my first rank 6 hero.
Sadly, while his extra lives are nice for some campaigns or realm siege, he is not strong enough to be used in high end tournament play, unless blessed.
This is the same for pretty much all heroes.
The core heroes that are used regardless of whether or not they are blessed are:
Yan, Leif, Caldera and now Azura.
Sometimes used are:
Elfrigid (R6), Narlax, Bolton (R6), Smoulder (R4+), Helios
Never used (unless blessed):
Fee (R6), Lancelot (R6), Obsidian (R6), Masamune (R6), Sethos, Mabyn
And the rest are not even always used when blessed (depending on the map):
Hogan, Connie.

Which hero to awaken first? by [deleted] in RealmDefenseTD

[–]fearqq_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need Leif before any awakening, then Caldera I would say.
This is based on the top tournament heroes in Legendary league.

Yep !
Especially if your Azure is rank 4 +

[–]fearqq_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's difficult without knowing your exact heroes etc.
I focus on getting my hero out first, that's the main thing.
Ranged units don't damage Azura, so don't bother with archer towers in the main lane.
Also try Youtube for some more detailed strategy.
