Tips & Tricks
  • This comp previously was listed as fast 9. It has been changed to 3-cost reroll as that is the strategy used most of the time: Generally do not roll at all before 7. This is why having at least 3 copies of Cinderling or Pebbles + 5 Riftbeast early is important.
  • Once you reach Level 7 around 4-1 and start rolling for 7 Riftbeast + 3-star Krug, Scuttle, Cinderling, and Pebbles. Sometimes you can play around Murkwolf or Gromp if you have many items. Thief's Gloves can be good for unitemized 3-stars.
  • Once you hit 3-star Krug, focus on pushing levels so you can ideally play around Elder Dragon late game.
  • The comp can be played as fast 9 in rare circumstances where you streak with nearly a natural Cinderling or Pebbles 3, but this is quite rare so the reroll variant is far more popular.
  • Most of the time Alpha Mark the Krug. Sometimes you can Alpha Mark a carry like Cinderling or Pebbles if your frontline is tanky. If you make it to 3 item Elder Dragon 2, use alpha mark on him.
  • Item priority matrix is setup for Cinderling + Elder Dragon, but obviously AP items are higher priority if you have a Pebbles setup early with AP items slammed.

Economy Strategy
  1. Level to 4 if strong.
  2. Level to 5, unless on 3 loss streak.
  3. Level to 6, unless it places you below 30g.
  4. Stay level 6, unless you can stay above 50g on 7 or you are below 40 HP and can stay above 30g on 7.
  5. Level to 7, roll until board mostly upgraded. Never go below 10g even if missing tank or carry.
  6. Build up to 50g, slow roll to 50g until 5-1.
  7. If below ~25 HP, sometimes you must roll until you hit here. Not ideal.
  8. Roll until you hit 3-star carry and tank. Can go to 0g. Only greed gold if you are above ~60 HP.
  9. If you hit, you can level to 8. Otherwise stay 7. Holds true for every round for the rest of the game.

    unplayable after nerf

  2. kekw

    Seraphim staff isn’t at least +1 here?

    Can you add Riftbeast shop probabilities to the site? I heard that it doesn’t 100% align with standard shop odds

  4. Anonymous User

    good with cluttered mind

  5. ImpetuousPanda

    I would add “Going Long” to the augment section in some capacity. You need to have the spot for it, but I had 5 riftbeasts on 2-1 with it and 14 streaked, was level 7 on 3-1 with 7 riftbeasts(and then hit verticality II xdd)

      Added it. It makes sense to me that it would be good, not sure if +1 or +2. Would need to see multiple games with it to feel confident on ranking it higher than +1. Thanks!

    I Played double bluebuff + Alpha Mark Pebbels and he casts once and then never stops. I think this was very very nasty.

    elder drake is a girl could you correct “him” to “her”?

    Band of Thieves is good combat for this line, saw it in NA subregional played by a challenger player

    NSNP goes crazy with this comp so long as you have riftbeasts to fill out slots. Prob have to always play Gromp instead of Brambleback though

    Having gotten it twice now, I think I can comfortably say that “Deadlier Caps” is really good on this – obviously on a Pebbles-focused version. The mana regen actually does make a difference and obviously it just gets increasingly strong as you get kills. Only take with a Pebbles 2* obviously.

    I also think that Void Staff has merit on Pebbles.

    It’s better to alpha mark on scuttle instead of krug if you need more tankiness.

  13. Think Criticallly

    How do you hit 3 star 1 cost without rolling? Is there a way to generate them?

      I have only been able to get the lvl9 elder dragon version of this comp working with trade sector

    2. Anonymous

      2-5 on 5 try to get 5 riftbeast, Scuttle 2* with 2 jugg is plenty strong

  14. Mythric

    I had a very good opener with Prismatic Destiny into Band of Thieves
