Lagertha appears in 12 ranked Footmen combos.

1. 36 FMB Lagertha · Clovis I · Ashoka
   Lagertha (X27), Clovis I (X15) and Ashoka (X14) score 71.44 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

   Lagertha is the shield: the damage reduction and staying power buy the rounds the plan needs — carries 137% of damage reduction across its kit, and takes the front as the one built to survive the opening exchange. Clovis I is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — Territory Expansion applies Silence on a 60% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Ashoka is the win condition, bringing 70% of the lineup's expected damage: Bloodthirsty Ashoka puts 210% x5 into one enemy squad on a 60% roll, and stays in the back, where the range-3 skills still touch the enemy front line. The lineup works because Ashoka produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Clovis I’s Frankish Spear waits on; Clovis I produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Ashoka’s Bloodthirsty Ashoka waits on; Clovis I’s Territory Expansion applies Silence and takes a squad out of the fight, so Ashoka swings into a line that cannot answer. What you give up: raw damage reaches only about 29% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster; the trigger chain is thin — the three lean on one link rather than several. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. How these scores work →

2. 51 FMB Alberich · Lagertha · Achilles
   Alberich (X18 · paid), Lagertha (X27) and Achilles (SP · paid) score 69.24 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

   Alberich is the saboteur, stripping the enemy's stats before the blows land: strips 27% of enemy Might, Resistance and damage in total, and takes the front on purpose: this kit feeds on being attacked, and the front is where the attacks are. Lagertha is the shield: the damage reduction and staying power buy the rounds the plan needs — carries 137% of damage reduction across its kit, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Achilles is the lifeline: that healing decides whether this lineup is still standing in round five — carries 500% of recovery across its kit, 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 Achilles produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Alberich’s Treasure Holder waits on; Lagertha raises Achilles’s output directly rather than adding a number of its own. What you give up: the trigger chain is thin — the three lean on one link rather than several; raw damage reaches only about 20% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster. How these scores work →

Nevsky is the win condition, bringing 65% of the lineup's expected damage: Tactical Strike puts 320% x2 into 2 enemy squads on a 60% roll, 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 Nevsky produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Clovis I’s Frankish Spear waits on; Clovis I produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Nevsky’s Battle Skill Echo waits on; Clovis I’s Territory Expansion applies Silence and takes a squad out of the fight, so Nevsky swings into a line that cannot answer.

The lineup works because Lagertha raises Harald III’s output directly rather than adding a number of its own.
