1. 1 FMB Geraint · Alberich · Zhao Yun Current meta Beats 29 of 29 in battle 90.41/100 out of 100 ⇗
   Geraint (X24), Alberich (X18 · paid) and Zhao Yun (X26) score 90.41 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

   Geraint is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Deadly Roar puts 300% into 2 enemy squads on a 70% roll, and takes the front on purpose: this kit feeds on being attacked, and the front is where the attacks are. Alberich is the saboteur, stripping the enemy's stats before the blows land: raises what enemies take by 56% across its kit, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Zhao Yun is the win condition, bringing 85% of the lineup's expected damage: Dragon Battles in the Wild puts 300% x2 into all enemy squads every time it fires, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-5 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because Geraint’s Undying Will produces draws_fire, the exact trigger Alberich’s Treasure Holder waits on; Zhao Yun produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Alberich’s Treasure Holder waits on. What you give up: the damage runs off different engines, so the three do not compound; a focused finisher and spread pressure both present.

Zhao Yun is the win condition, bringing 70% of the lineup's expected damage: Dragon Battles in the Wild puts 300% x2 into all enemy squads every time it fires, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Achilles brings a second damage line worth 20% of the expected output, so no single silence stops the plan: Blade of Judgment puts 625% into one enemy squad on a 80% roll, and stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-4 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because Zhao Yun produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Alberich’s Treasure Holder waits on; Achilles’s Blade of Judgment applies Silence and takes a squad out of the fight, so Zhao Yun swings into a line that cannot answer. What you give up: the trigger chain is thin — the three lean on one link rather than several; a current-era lineup with no legacy weak point.
