Proven synergies

A different question from the grid above: not who Geraint is listed with, but whose kit the skill text says Geraint actually feeds — or feeds on. Each claim names the effect and, wherever the card records one, the skill producing it, so you can check it against the cards further down. Some of these pairs share no ranked lineup at all; each one says why.

Best Footmen combos with Geraint

Geraint appears in 65 ranked Footmen combos — showing the top 24.

  1. 1 Geraint, front rowAlberich, middle rowZhao Yun, back row Geraint · Alberich · Zhao Yun Current meta 90.13 out of 100
    Geraint (X24), Alberich (X18 · paid) and Zhao Yun (X26) score 90.13 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 82% 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 redirected attacks, 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; only one aimed finisher to focus a squad down, despite the spread pressure.

  2. 4 Geraint, front rowAchilles, middle rowAlberich, back row Geraint · Achilles · Alberich Current meta 86.36 out of 100
    Geraint (X24), Achilles (SP · paid) and Alberich (X18 · paid) score 86.36 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. Achilles is the win condition, bringing 61% of the lineup's expected damage: Blade of Judgment puts 625% into one enemy squad on a 80% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Alberich is the saboteur, stripping the enemy's stats before the blows land: raises what enemies take by 56% across its kit, 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 redirected attacks, the exact trigger Alberich’s Treasure Holder waits on; Achilles produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Alberich’s Treasure Holder waits on. What you give up: raw damage reaches only about 28% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster; the damage runs off different engines, so the three do not compound.

  3. 5 Geraint, front rowHarald III, middle rowZhao Yun, back row Geraint · Harald III · Zhao Yun Current meta 85.89 out of 100
    Geraint (X24), Harald III (X19) and Zhao Yun (X26) score 85.89 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. Harald III adds a second source of control, so the lock rarely has an off round: Absolute Authority applies Taunt on a 55% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Zhao Yun is the win condition, bringing 76% 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 redirected attacks, the exact trigger Harald III’s Eternal Black Sail waits on. What you give up: the trigger chain is thin — the three lean on one link rather than several; the damage runs off different engines, so the three do not compound. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending.

  4. 6 Gustav, front rowGeraint, middle rowLagertha, back row Gustav · Geraint · Lagertha Current meta developer pick 85.57 out of 100
    Gustav (X20), Geraint (X24) and Lagertha (X27) score 85.57 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

    Gustav is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Uprising applies Suppress, and takes the front to pull enemy attacks inward -- exactly where that belongs. Geraint adds a second source of control, so the lock rarely has an off round: Deadly Roar puts 300% into 2 enemy squads on a 70% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Lagertha is the multiplier, raising what the other two put out rather than adding a number of its own: carries 64% of damage amplification across its kit, 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 Gustav’s Aligned Force produces redirected attacks, the exact trigger Geraint’s Resilience and Lagertha’s Counterattack Tactics both wait on; Gustav’s Uprising applies Suppress and takes a squad out of the fight, so Lagertha swings into a line that cannot answer; Gustav raises Lagertha’s output directly rather than adding a number of its own. What you give up: raw damage reaches only about 15% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster; damage is spread across the enemy line, with no finisher to focus one squad down. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. This is one of the lineups recommended in-game by the developers, and the scorecard shows why it earns the recommendation.

    Geraint (X24), King Arthur (SP · paid) and Zhao Yun (X26) score 88.63 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. King Arthur is the shield: the damage reduction and staying power buy the rounds the plan needs — carries 164% of damage reduction 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 84% 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 redirected attacks, the exact trigger King Arthur’s Wheel of Fortune waits on; Zhao Yun produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger King Arthur’s Sword in the Stone waits on. What you give up: little here disrupts the enemy plan, so the fight is decided on raw output; the damage runs off different engines, so the three do not compound.

King Arthur is the shield: the damage reduction and staying power buy the rounds the plan needs — carries 164% of damage reduction across its kit, and stays in the back, where the range-3 skills still touch the enemy front line. The lineup works because Geraint’s Undying Will produces redirected attacks, the exact trigger King Arthur’s Wheel of Fortune waits on; Achilles produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger King Arthur’s Sword in the Stone waits on. What you give up: raw damage reaches only about 26% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster; the damage runs off different engines, so the three do not compound.

    Hannibal is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Rear Escort applies Disarm, and takes the front to pull enemy attacks inward -- exactly where that belongs.

Achilles brings a second damage line worth 25% 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 sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Zhao Yun is the win condition, bringing 73% 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. Be clear about what this is: the three cover each other rather than trigger each other, so it earns its place on coverage, not on a chain. What you give up: no hero here feeds another one's trigger; the damage runs off different engines, so the three do not compound.

    Geraint (X24), Harald III (X19) and Achilles (SP · paid) score 78.53 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. Harald III adds a second source of control, so the lock rarely has an off round: Absolute Authority applies Taunt on a 55% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Achilles is the win condition, bringing 52% of the lineup's expected damage: 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 Geraint’s Undying Will produces redirected attacks, the exact trigger Harald III’s Eternal Black Sail waits on. What you give up: the trigger chain is thin — the three lean on one link rather than several; no one hero clearly carries, so the damage is easier to interrupt.

    Gustav (X20), Alexander (SP · paid) and Geraint (X24) score 84.46 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

    Gustav is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Uprising applies Suppress, and takes the front to pull enemy attacks inward -- exactly where that belongs. Alexander is the saboteur, stripping the enemy's stats before the blows land: raises what enemies take by 325% across its kit, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Geraint adds a second source of control, so the lock rarely has an off round: Deadly Roar puts 300% into 2 enemy squads on a 70% 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 Gustav’s Aligned Force produces redirected attacks, the exact trigger Geraint’s Resilience waits on; Gustav’s Uprising applies Suppress and takes a squad out of the fight, so Alexander swings into a line that cannot answer; Gustav raises Alexander’s output directly rather than adding a number of its own. What you give up: damage is spread across the enemy line, with no finisher to focus one squad down; the trigger chain is thin — the three lean on one link rather than several.

The lineup works because Geraint’s Undying Will produces redirected attacks, the exact trigger Cleopatra VII’s Dazzling Shield waits on. What you give up: damage is spread across the enemy line, with no finisher to focus one squad down; the trigger chain is thin — the three lean on one link rather than several.

Lagertha is the multiplier, raising what the other two put out rather than adding a number of its own: carries 64% of damage amplification across its kit, 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 redirected attacks, the exact trigger Lagertha’s Counterattack Tactics waits on.
