Try Lasair in a full retaliation set.. I haven't been playing nearly as long a most people. I just collected my Day 91 login. But he's carrying me through a lot of content and he's in my arena team...running Khatun, Lasair, Warmaiden, and Ninja... I'm currently in Gold 2 with that team

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Always such a good time coming to rock with you my man! Thanks so much for having me on and finishing this epic series together!

[@elhaxo142]

I want to see all the factions ranked best to worse now that you 2 have picked the best and worst champions from them

Could watch the two of you just cracking each other up all day.

[@Suureush]

YES!! I'm here sitting at middle of the night playing raid, my new favorite game (played for about 2 weeks now, and I'm SO addicted!) when I suddenly see that my new favorite content creator has made ANOTHER amazing video! Have bingewatched SO many of your videoes the past week, haha, love it! Keep up the good work dude, you rock! - Regards from Norway

[@Prototype092]

Please send me some love and positive vibes guys, tough times right now...

[@littebro6]

You are a veteran 😅

[@22mdg]

We need "I Digress" merch!

[@solrac4270]

Love your content Ash, and through these colabs I found Drock's channel and I loved it, thanks for that. Also, i like Prosecutor from High Elves niche usable, but beautiful design with her mask (probably my favorite champ in the game from a design pov).

[@ninaarmstrong7744]

Mystic Hand in Dark Elves has always been criminally underrated…if you lack a madam Serris, he is your early game answer to farming magic potion keep and takes that big shield off 😊

[@Lones555]

Ogryn Jailer does it better because his buff removal is also a HUGE hit.

[@ninaarmstrong7744]

@@Lones555 absolutely he is great too honestly just depends if someone is early game and struggles in magic keep, whomever they pull first :) definitely good shout out!!

[@calebhollobaugh9140]

@@ninaarmstrong7744take annointed in and watch him steal that shield

[@DarkKaelSalad]

Anointed filled that role for me for quite a while. The freeze also helped in the super early game.

[@quewerty8401]

​@@Lones555 Hand is %100 . But didn't realize jailer was good at it as well .

[@AdmoPK]

Also - I love this game. My main account is f2p, and it's the same one I've had since day one. Now that I have a decent job (took long enough, I know), I plan on actually investing in it. None of my friends play, which saddens me. But it's been a ton of fun, and I am so glad to find people who stream it or at least make videos about it and the champions. Besides usefulness of the champs in endgame, the lore's kept me playing, too. I'm glad to see others share their joy for the game, and this vid really helped me figure out which of the 280 rares I have parked in my reserve vault are worth keeping and using as...food. Keep it up, y'all, and thanks again for the informative vid.

[@michaelmonge596]

What a great collaboration. Not just about a game but a couple of guys who are authentic and humble. Keep it up!

[@malinaplays]

This maybe the most adorable humility from a great creator I've ever seen, not being able to take these well earned compliments! You're a great person, Ash!

[@Dunkirk101]

Next collab, jgigs!?!? Yall are straight fire today!

[@elhaxo142]

I want to see all the factions ranked best to worst

[@johnsturmer2640]

Ash - Great video as always, so agree about Reliquary Tender. I use her in doom tower as a secondary healer/cleanser against spiders and on my second team in hydra (I am a lowly free to play) and she does me good. Also Elhain was my starter, I six starred her and use her right along with Baron, Rotos and some other damage dealers and she always holds her own.

[@RandomNY1234]

Best Common Champs.. :) Shortest video colab between you 2. :)

[@BrianChastain]

I'm new to this game. About 5 months. I've got a few accounts due to email and raid issues. I'd love to hear you and Drock both discuss the game dynamic, rares to go up and rares to use just for faction raiding. Make it a series. One episode for each one. Discuss each pros and cons. The basics of why which ones are good for each different thing, like doom tower or faction wars something like that. I would really appreciate some explanations and some tutorials from you both on the siege and doom tower. Explain in depth the different stackable buffs for extreme damage. I'm new like I said. I do have some really good legendaries. When you both did the collaborations before you didn't go through each one. I know this would be a good way for you both to ALSO make sure you have quite a few episodes but, unlike some out there who've been playing for a while. I'm new and a whole lot of others are new, so I know this portion of your followers would love to hear more so we learn what can help us get beefier in game Lego's and epics.

[@doro626]

Fun Fact. When I first started playing Raid in year 2, I pulled Bombadier, and because he had a chance for poison, I put him on all my teams, including arena!

[@justingarcia9111]

I'm newer to Raid - lvl 47 - and this video helps so much. My anicent shard pulls were very blue lol

[@scutifruti35]

Video Idea: Name the 5 Legendary you would fill your Faction Guardians in each faction. Different scenarios: Scenario 1- Unique champions like Lydia can be duped, and all are max in empowerment. It is just the 5 champions you see a reason to have a dupe of. Scenario 2- Mythicals do not exist, These 5 different Legendary are the only legendary champions you get in that faction ever (10 cause you have 2 of them), so you have to build your account with these champions.

[@xavierhart100]

Great video I love seeing big poppa Brock energy, just subscribed🙌

[@dksoulstice6040]

My boys Lasair and Boughsmith Flannan. Sylvan Watchers are the Forsworn faction from Skyrim if they were Raid Shadow Legends characters, lol.

[@adambell6181]

You two need to do way more videos! This was fun to watch

[@playmusic8056]

Spirit host was a great rare for early game arena. Speed aura, increase attack, and cleanse. Early have, you never do enough rounds to need a second go. You generally either win or lose in a single round, maybe 2.

[@DustyCarlyon]

I've been playing for about 3 years and this video opened my eyes to some great rares that I missed.

[@Deosis]

I would like to see a LA session with you guys and I'm not even into LA that much. Just got into S4 actually. Will have to do more for the Marius missions at some point. Finally got the TTA G1 mission now I gotta worry about this haha Also, good vid. I'll check the rare only DT hard rooms and get back to this video to see who it's best to max out. Not many hard rooms left now.

[@cyriszx]

Glad Drock took my advice when i said you must get that Relic Tender to 6s when he was still picking what to 6s next

[@tobiaspause1775]

I would make Fanatics ability a passive, so he puts his debuffs on the enemy every Turn. Therefore also moving Stun, Daze and Freeze, while still standing true to his original Intentions. (moving his Debuffs)

[@conlanjenkins2137]

I hope one day you'll read over Myrmidon's kit and maybe try him in a rare only secret room or faction wars. I think he is really decent and at least worth a shout out in the Banner Lord's faction. He's decently tanks for a rare and helps keep the team alive pretty well too with the ally protect on the whole team. He isn't anything game breaking or even 6 star worthy but a lot of new players could get great utility out of a champion like that!

[@roguejames]

Marathon man! Thanks for the info, appreciated.

[@bryanm9697]

Ash ... not sure how you got Seth Rogen to do this with you but well played! anyway, great timing, just banked some points with rare tomes during CVC. Thanks!

[@00CH33TH4M00]

I'm still praying to the gods of RNG for coldheart, man-eater and seeker but still just getting da finger. Much love guys keep up the great videos

[@Pyrrha_Nikos]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="3515">58:35</a> the best part of that ability is that she puts a Veil on herself, which makes enemies unable to target her, and she places reflect damage on herself which requires enemies to hit her, and that would be much easier to achieve if she could be targetted by the enemies

[@horordarapper]

i love rares!! next time you should show rares the kind of attention u give epics and leggos talking about each even if they suck i was hoping you would talk about quaestor as i love him

[@Saus3657]

Live Arena kinda sucks, but anything you and Drock make I'm watching

[@KrebsTLegendvods]

Another W Ash x Drock video If you guys are looking for vid ideas, how about best Hydra champs? Maybe something like top 5 favorite Hydra champs for each "role". You and Drock are in late/end game Hydra so I think it'd help people a ton

[@katchewy2469]

I like skirmisher in barbarians. Lamaber, is a Lama. Cait was the first and only sylvan rare for a long time.

[@ThatsOurRobert]

I love these videos with my morning coffee so much! More longform videos! 😏

[@AdamStevens-d2m]

Disrespecting Valerie, she works for CB with Wixwell team for rare advanced quest, and since you have her built, she could work in Hydra if you didn't have other options for WIx-ica Hydra team. Now if you did have the gear which would mean you are latter game you could build Valerie at 5* for CB and use better option for Hydra.

[@Rzar]

Felhound is up there on my list. He’s such a great farmer! And quick! Still haven’t gotten me a Bellower yet. Going on my 3rd year playing now and finally got my first Coldheart, which was followed up by a second some shards later! Bout damn time!

[@broute]

I would love to see live arena coaching! Keep the great content coming!

[@samanthahouser5043]

Love it!! Thanks guys!!

[@YannWallenberg-ke9ug]

Hell Freak is awsome! I play in 3400 live arena and he is my most banned champ after arbiter! Swift parry, swap hp, steal buff before hitting to finish a guy protected by block damage/unkillable.. extra turns..

[@tristanhouse6747]

Best trilogy since Lord of The Rings. Mycolous (ogryn) would be my shout out. I think he is very viable as a rare healer/tank. But a tiny buff would put him in top 10 rares I think. Just simply raising that hp/SPD would go a long way cause he has a nice DMG mitigation kit

[@SpaceGhostCarerra]

Lol the war maiden part indeed we were all thinking the same thing😂 GYAATT

[@peterstevenson9472]

LA is fun when you have the champs - Taras/Marichka for me. I need to move them out of pve and go full sheep. My clan mate's win rate went up to 90% on pulling Siegfrund. I like using rares but there isn't enough of uses for them. They are even more fun with high awakenings.

[@chrisgobles674]

Gravechill is top tier with Frozen Banshee. I loved using them together in a budget unkillable back in the day.

[@ericpeirce5598]

Live Arena is good, but I haven't spent much time on it recently. Once I finish building a few more of my new champs, I will probably get back in to earn some more Area Bonuses

[@jamesbrighton1778]

for lizardmen I used to use gator for spider in doom tower for the solid debuff remover

[@AdmoPK]

Talking about lucky leggies -- I got Rae on a blue on my f2p and she's been my campaign farmer since then. I still don't have Fellhound.

[@Deosis]

IS A LAMB A SHEEP 😂😂😂

[@Theproautodetailing]

Joined raid 6 or so months ago wish I used your referral link but thank for the great content and advice!

[@joedavis6524]

Don’t sleep on Tirlac. He’s like a baby Tagoar (without the revive) in that he is speeding up you team, keeping them alive and is hard to kill. Carried me in the early game.

[@lordmegatron7559]

Random question for Ash & Drock. Last year, we got an animated story on KZbin for Raid. If you had one faction to see an animated story, who would it be?

[@S.D.0000]

Executioner with a Nature's blessing is great in Arena and FW Kurzad with Reflex/Relentless + 4 piece Slayer set is fun to use

[@michaelmurphy7071]

A gear support series. List the gear, and which character benefits the most from it.

[@tsteele891]

I wonder if Lifetaker would be good against Amius with her 30% Heal reduction if she is built for speed and accuracy. Especially with Natures Bounty as her Blessing.

[@SeliKitty]

I 6 starred valerie for CB for my wixwell team, very worth it, put the shield set on her, and that way I can use the same team for CB regardless of what the quests for the day are

[@zacharyquentin2140]

Not necessary to 6 star, but Haruspex can be useful at 50 in a pinch for Faction Wars and Gator is a 3 turn cleanser that I've used successfully at 50 against Nether Spider.

[@davidzamora8342]

Hey Ash. Quick question is Geo better for CB than Ninja ? Have a three key nightmare team with ninja but I just pulled Geo. I’ve read somewhere you can run both but ninja has to be slower so geo can place first burn 🔥 Thanks

[@RobertDaniel-z2u]

I know you are looking for Ash to answer. But I've found testing this for yourself is better. Just because everyone's account is different and champions really are hard to compare depending on how you have built them. Hope this helps. Just pay attention to the run and the results.

[@buisnesswoman1734]

Shout out to hex weaver a dark elf rare she has a heal a decrease accuracy and a increase speed and crit rate and speed aura she's carried me through a lot of content.

[@sakrondk3183]

I just like the fact that we all got some similar ideas I am a little weird with it but yeah

[@MongooseJakeGames]

Only at the Sacred Order portion of the video, but you guys both missed on Chaplain. Her A1 is very basic, but her A2 and A3 make her amazing especially if you don't have a Godseeker for the Faction. Her A2 is a full cleanse and heal for a single ally but it's based on her attack, same as her A3 AoE that heals all allies by 25% of the total damage dealt. You literally just make her nuke and in turn she heals quite well. I have mine 6 starred and with a 6 star awakening and she's insanely good for a rare, often out damaging my Astralon and Godseeker.

[@Ilighitaq]

I hate live arena but I'd love watching you guys do a coaching session!

[@soulstice94]

niche champs per rarity OR like, "budget" builds per area like good faction wars champs per rarity or like good ice gollem per rarity and per faction etc etc ALSO rare empowerment would be neat, but faction guardians might get too wild storage wise... maybe give us a new vault too

[@toddchristiansen1441]

"I think it will be a lot of fun for us to do it together." - BigPoppaDrock, 20204

[@lythran3130]

champion pairing (ie Rotos/siphi) best way to use them? or Faction Wars, I am still trying to finish them.

[@meaninglessbanter]

Banner Lords - Spymaster! Double provoke and a solid chance of AoE Block Debuffs

[@LadyEtessa]

Hello ash video recommendation idea: Underrated live arena champs or smthng to do with live arena, that is if you like live arena

[@BrokenNotDead]

Haven't fully tested him, but Teryx was really solid on a F2P account, until I had to use him on the fusion

[@davidjarkeld2333]

For Orcs - Raider is good in faction Wars with increase speed aura and AOE decrease speed

[@VinegarMoneyGrows]

Haven't played a single game of Live Arena. Zero area bonus and proud of it

[@dahbeast_6916]

Soon I saw the word RARE, Harrier pops in my mind 😂😂

[@benallen1952]

I hate live arena but I would watch a live arena colab between Ash and Drock

[@brandincormier2700]

Hey Ash do you think you can build a hydra team with just rare champions?

[@Ricky-px4gp]

I don't know if you notice or not but most of the champions are the actual same champion Magister and Apothecary same champions different kits though and different costumes, Seer and Shaman and blind seer the same Diabolist and Marquess you see what I'm saying if they look alike they probably are the same champion just different looks and kits I've noticed this throughout my game play

[@martinignatow4393]

Man,i love the Plarium Pop ups. They make me lol alot. Ash - "That's Moneyyy." Plarium - "Where is it?? WHERE IS IT ??"

[@cindysimko2954]

Lamibur is pretty decent. Helped me get through faction wars.

[@robertkuzma6912]

So, does Big Papa Drock go with Big War Mother or Big Matriarch Zargune?

[@suutypro]

I love the vids with you both, always lmao 🤣

[@Lustra58]

Thanks for great help guy

[@bruceclark8080]

Loki aoe A1 animation is insanely fast i know eventually everyone wont have been but i switched to him already its insane how fast it is

[@tobiasdye7007]

I need you to introduce me the way you introduce Droc. Big time energy Ash! I agree that Banner lords (Dagger and Valerie) aside are trash.

[@skew9879]

we love drock here so much

[@geminiman6128]

Do the live arena Collab please. Edit: Hexweaver carried my account back in 2021 (she definitely needs a Hex on her A3).

[@Gegota82]

Athel is my favorite starter champion. even now, almost 8 months into the gae, she is my campaign chicken farmer on 12-3 brutal. Actually I think Mother Superior is pretty decent, you can take her to 50 at least, I her 5* awakened, maybe thats why lol. Skinwalkers: Fleshmonger and Gnarlhorn... Bibop and Rocksteady (almost) hahaha. I agree with Drock as well, Tolog is really good also. so skinwalkers have 3-4 good rares, Graybeard isn't bad either. Fleshmonger is a better rare version of Athel. Master Butcher for the dwarves is good.

[@tejaswakade9047]

What champions to book? What gear to farm?

[@christopherthefortniteboy6367]

Meatcarver tolog is a super underrated reviver and champion ngl

[@sexta-feira1388]

I have a fried tha actually looks and stands like Lamibur,but me and my other friends we try so hard to not make fun of it.

[@robertleighty4217]

So a callout on Barbarians from me(not saying he's amazing but Annointed has some nice skills mainly for Fire Knight based ones) Steel Bowyer got nerfed into the ground in the past so I doubt they'd rebuff her Enemy Max HP skill

[@robertleighty4217]

Annointed has an A1 with a 25% chance to freeze on a triple hitter, his A2 has a 90% on a double hitter to steal a buff(if both land you steal two buffs on a 4 turn cooldown) and his A3 gives a 25% turn meter boost and a 30% increase crit rate buff on a 3 turn cooldown. Please give Annointed some love guys!

[@Throwing-Dirt]

Lasair never gets any love....put him in a full Retaliation set...he's my campaign farmer, I use him in arena and farming in gold, amazing in Fire Knight, that shield and his A1 sustain is amazing

[@marcinkapinski9537]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="177">2:57</a> Valerie is a no-brainer... IF you have Vixwell. ;)

[@ashleylittle6776]

For more advanced teams ironclad is totally op in the rare only hp champions secret room! Now hp champions don't do much damage at the best of times but rare hp champs...omg...put ironclad in poison set and immortal set.. the immortal heal triggers his passive..have a look at all the fastest times for this secret room and ironclad is in every one!

[@Turtleshellon]

I’m about 6 months in and I don’t even use rares other then the 2 I have on my Wixwell CB team, Bellower as my campaign farmer, and Coldheart. Give me leggos Plarium!

[@mikeengland2633]

I'm looking for a guide or how to make acb team using ally protect and no block damage unkillable. Is really like to use geo corvis white dyad nia.

[@Ameri_Khan78]

You forgot Paragon in Dark Elves... Gator in Lizardmen.. Trugorr in Barbarian is very underrated... also Ordinator is actually pretty good.

[@Twit21269]

You should do the live arena if you want to more than if viewers want to

[@Neuvillete4.6]

i wanna see LA coach then a vid of ash taackling it

[@rycs16]

I don't "LOVE" Live Arena, but I recognize it's value.

When can you cover the faction unity lords, Ash?
