Lancelot appears in 14 ranked Cavalry combos.

  1. 2 Lancelot, front rowSaladin, middle rowZhao Yun, back row Lancelot · Saladin · Zhao Yun
    Lancelot (X20 · paid), Saladin (SP · paid) and Zhao Yun (X26) score 86.62 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

    Lancelot brings a second damage line worth 20% of the expected output, so no single silence stops the plan: Immortal puts 356% into all enemy squads on a 50% roll, and takes the front, able to both absorb the opening rounds and heal through them. Saladin is the saboteur, stripping the enemy's stats before the blows land: strips 75% of enemy Might, Resistance and damage in total, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Zhao Yun is the win condition, bringing 72% 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 Saladin’s Whirlwind Slash produces trigger-rate boosts, the exact trigger Lancelot waits on; Saladin’s Whirlwind Slash produces prep-skips, the exact trigger Lancelot waits on; Saladin produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Lancelot’s Dedication waits on. What you give up: damage is spread across the enemy line rather than focused on one squad; raw damage reaches only about 62% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster. How these scores work →

Lancelot brings a second damage line worth 19% of the expected output, so no single silence stops the plan: Immortal puts 356% into all enemy squads on a 50% roll, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. 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 stays in the back, out of the enemy's easy reach, and those range-5 skills lose nothing for it. The lineup works because Zhao Yun produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Lancelot’s Dedication waits on; Harald III’s Absolute Authority applies Taunt and takes a squad out of the fight, so Zhao Yun swings into a line that cannot answer; Lancelot shuts off enemy recovery, so what Zhao Yun deals stays dealt. What you give up: the trigger chain is thin — the three lean on one link rather than several; damage is spread across the enemy line rather than focused on one squad. How these scores work →

  6. 100 Al-Hawra, front rowBjorn, middle rowLancelot, back row Al-Hawra · Bjorn · Lancelot
    Al-Hawra (archer · X01 · paid), Bjorn (cavalry · X04) and Lancelot (cavalry · X20 · paid) score 69.50 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

    Al-Hawra is the multiplier, raising what the other two put out rather than adding a number of its own: carries 78% of damage amplification across its kit, and takes the front as the one built to survive the opening exchange. Bjorn is the second amplifier -- with two heroes raising the output, the carry hits far above its own numbers: carries 90% of damage amplification across its kit, and sits in the middle, where the support reaches both the front and the back. Lancelot is the win condition, bringing 76% of the lineup's expected damage: Immortal puts 356% into all enemy squads on a 50% 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 Al-Hawra’s Desert Phantom produces trigger-rate boosts, the exact trigger Bjorn and Lancelot both wait on; Bjorn produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Al-Hawra’s Desert Phantom waits on; Al-Hawra produces combat-skill casts, the exact trigger Lancelot’s Dedication waits on. What you give up: raw damage reaches only about 16% of the hardest-hitting trio in the roster; Al-Hawra (X01) is the era weak point -- the enemy will aim at the oldest squad. How these scores work →
