How I Build My Duchess to DOMINATE in Arena!

[@karimpanda6370]

Nice video! Come back here after 1 year coz I pulled Duchess herself on my ftp

[@enigmaoriginal2665]

And here i am with zero Duchess after trying 5+ 10x or more events. Apparently Plarium has decided im not allowed to have her Valkyrie or Acrizia cause ive spent most of my shards trying to get em.

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

I hope you get a Duchess soon. You've suffered enough. Give him a Duchess Plarium!

[@bwllsdavid]

did you got her since? i was pretty much in the same boat and I just got her on this 15x finally :)

[@tomdoritos3568]

I agree , the only downside is she doesn't have any heals. Also her revive is with 0 turn meter.

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Yep completely agree. Oh well. Thankfully she's great at everything else!

[@Nanu4god]

Ty for your content bro - and "Merry X Mas" too you and your loved ones Drock 🎉

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Thank you for watching and the same to you!

[@horridfuture3835]

I remember when duchess first came out I pulled her and was disappointed cause she wasn’t valk or martyr 😂 she quickly became my most used champion.

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

She is god tier for sure!

[@pbdeadcrew948]

I have duchess in 1 turn stone skin and bolster. I like the healing of bolster on a tanky duchess. 120k hp, 5k def, 270 speed. No empowerment, no awakening, no stats from faction guardian

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Very impressive build! Bolster and Stoneskin is a great combo together!

[@Villaccio]

I was shocked to see the same stat as my +1, 5 star awekened duchess, the I saw the 110 speed difference!

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Hahaha the speed always catches people off guard for sure!

[@Villaccio]

@@bigpoppadrockrsl that duchess is fast as my siphi, build for speed! Great build

[@dd_zzero6827]

Hi Drock. I have a Duchess but of course not anywhere near your level. Can you please explain to me what the purpose of putting a very high speed champ with Stoneskin? Shouldn't it be the opposite? She will be out of that stoneskin in a flash with such high speeds. Btw, thanks for the video on Christmas. Hope you had a great day.

[@kerrigan9558]

Explained here @13:09

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Great question DD! So there are a couple of big reasons why I want her fast. The number one is that I want her cycling her abilities as quickly as possible so she has her A2 and A3 available as frequently as possible. The other reason is that when you watch a lot of my fights Duchess will take a turn before an enemy Taras or Rotos goes and if she has her perfect veil up my other champs are less likely to get killed especially since many are in reaction. Thanks for watching as always my man!

I was ready for 8k Attack with 350% Crit damage ngl hahah Great Video Drock

[@sgttoxiiczz]

Her a1 damage scales from defence 😅

[@unomeriko]

@@sgttoxiiczz 8k defense 380% crit damage 1-shot

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Haha next time! Thanks!

[@tipeh8051]

Is Siphi better than Duchess just in the arena or in the game in general?

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

I'd say Duchess is better for most players in most scenarios but Siphi is better for arena at the top end.

[@TigerKings]

Merry Christmas to you Drock

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Merry Christmas my man!

[@johanndaart7326]

Is she still worth it for low level (Silver) Live Arena? I only use her for PvE, but I started playing LA and maybe she would help me. I'm worried though that her revive without TM is not good enough.

[@RedfrexWoW]

I run my duchess in 4p stoneskin 4p bolster. I really like it for longer fights bc of the healing every turn. But I'd trade it for your build any day lol

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

I'd love to do that eventually if I can get the gear for it. Seems like a solid build for sure!

[@ianbyt]

The best part about her for at least me or F2P: she only needs eight books! No crazy spending to get the cooldowns down. And if you get lucky with the a2 and a3, it might be best not to book her A1

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Great point! And that's a massive win for any one, even us krakens. The less books the better!

[@eliargumedo4728]

So true. I was lucky to only need 4 books minimum

[@aidanstaples2264]

Damn that’s an insane build nice bro. Can’t believe how much work georgid is doing too, gonna be insane if u get him plus 4 as well

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Thank you! And yeah I really want one more Georgid! +4 makes a huge difference!

[@GavinMastersRAID]

Wow! Now that is a sweet Duchess!

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Thanks!

[@biohackrsl]

Thanks for showing your build drock! It's crazy how fast you get her while still keeping her tanky in 6 piece stoneskin!

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Thank you my bro! I just wish I could get her even tankier and faster haha!

[@Leadfoot70]

To your question: I run Dutchess slow-ish and tanky with high resistance in 2 turn stoneskin in both live, 3v3, and classic arena. And a request: Next show your Siphi! Merry Christmas.

[@Jetnes]

That would probably be a problem. Showing his Siphis speed ;)

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Very nice! Merry Christmas to you as well! I'd love to show my Siphi but I just don't think she's powerful enough to merit a World's Strongest video haha

[@priestguardian2587]

envy .. just pulled my second Duchess during the last progressive summons for her

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Congrats on pulling another Duchess! I hope you get a couple more of her soon 😁

[@enjuno]

The one thing I can hold over Drock's head, my greathall buffs are done j/k lol. Good showcase and it sucks people won't cooperate and let you show duchess off. They should really setup exhibition matches in live arena so you fight against your friends/clanmates

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Haha one of these days I'll complete the Great Hall! And agreed. We really need a way to show off these champs in Live Arena!

[@xslayerizedx]

I like these showcases . Change it up from the usual live arena stuff .

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Thank you! Glad you enjoy them!

[@ChromaLyte]

i build mine with hopes and dreams. one day i hope she will join my roster. and it will be a dream come true.

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

And I hope your dreams come true 🥹

[@Joatle]

My +3 Duchess is only 111K HP, 5.3K DEF, 267 SPD and 293 RES. 2 turn stone skin and 3 piece reaction. Have two more duchesses, i use them both, but kinda want to +4 my main one :p And, only 3 star blessing :/

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

+4 is god tier. Do it. You know you want to. Become the Kraken you were BORN to be 😈

[@Jetnes]

I actually disagree, I really like my duchess in bolster for PvP. I usually always pair her with Harima anyway, so rotos can’t really touch her at all. Also I would say depends on what kind of hp u can get her to, but a solid 45k hp shield for 3 turns doesn’t let u down in pvp

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

That's fair and it certainly has its uses. My only issue with Bolster set is that there are more and more champions that counter it by ignoring shield completely like the new lizard or Georgid. Still if it works for you that's all that matters!

[@alexavery8182]

OF when?

[@manup.3689]

My 7.5k atk damage wukong would sheep that duchess. At least 500 resist is a must imo

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

500 resist unfortunately isn't worth it in high level arena. You sacrifice too much in speed and survivability. And it's very easy to counter the monkey so not worth hamstringing Duchess out of fear of that one champion.

Thanks for coming to check out the channel! Can't wait to collab with him!

[@RedfrexWoW]

Classic will always be dead for anyone living in the US bc of reset schedule. Ridiculous that in 2023, "the year of pvp", Plarium couldn't be bothered to fix this to include the rest of their player base.

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

100% accurate!

[@danielwahlqvist2766]

You think it's better for me as a European? Reset is 9 in the morning, usually I have meetings to attend.

[@RedfrexWoW]

@@danielwahlqvist2766 9am is better than 3am. That's not even debatable lol

[@aersla1731]

Nuke worlds strongest duchess when? Merry holidays :)

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Haha got to make it happen! Hope you had great holidays as well!

[@neoncitywolf328]

Bruh I wasn’t ready for those stats 😮😮😮😮 drock loan me her for 24hrs pls

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Haha I wish I could! Just pull the lizard and loan him to me for arena and we have a deal 😉

[@pw5232]

I am shocked this Dutchess of omegakraken is nothin special statwise

[@bigpoppadrockrsl]

Interesting that you would consider those stats "nothing special" 😂

I am surprised you didn't +4 your Georgid.
