  1. 34 North's Rage, front rowYukimura Sanada, middle rowWilliam Wallace, back row North's Rage · Yukimura Sanada · William Wallace developer pick Starter Beats 0 of 8 reference lineups 45.85/100 out of 100
    North's Rage (S00), Yukimura Sanada (S00) and William Wallace (S00) score 45.85 out of 100 together, and each of the three has a job.

    North's Rage is the lock: every squad silenced or suppressed is a turn the enemy plan does not happen — For the North! applies Suppress on a 30% roll, and takes the front because those range-2 skills only connect from there. Yukimura Sanada adds a second source of control, so the lock rarely has an off round: Scarlet Armor applies Silence on a 25% roll, and sits in the middle, the deepest row those range-2 skills still fire from. William Wallace is the flex piece -- modest alone, but covering what the other two leave open: Eye of the Storm puts 667% into one enemy squad on a 50% 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 North's Rage’s For the North! applies Suppress and takes a squad out of the fight, so William Wallace swings into a line that cannot answer. What you give up: no hero here feeds another one's trigger; North's Rage holds the front, but nothing here heals. Budget note: every hero in this lineup can be completed without spending. This is one of the lineups recommended in-game by the developers -- the score above is what that classic core is still worth against the current roster.
