Top 10 Head of Mischief TANKS! | Raid: Shadow Legends

[@kevinj33]

It's insane how Skull Lord pretty much deals with 3 heads at once with ease. Haven't seen a value surge this big for a champion which was considered totally useless at first

[@BillyGoatBaaaa]

Shamael is my main Mischief tank. I run him with Demytha or Aniri, and as long as he's very slow, the amount of buff extensions they give him, he always has twice as many buffs as anyone else, bloodshield or not.

[@ericmar1993]

How much is really slow? Mine is 160 speed but sometimes his buffs fall off when my other champs still have buffs.

[@yuarlslot]

I missed you mentioned Vergis. He is my fav to counter mischief. Just apply his buffs to whoever you want with high resistance and you have the team protected plus the mischief head blocked from doing anything.

[@ancientbehemoth6448]

Put drextar in counterattack rings and gear and he will also return hits + giant slayer... you get additional hp burn % and dmg

[@alexandrucornea2129]

Thank you! The exact thing I was searching for yesterday!

[@mafew1908]

Really love your Hydra videos. All so valuable as you demonstrate that we can succeed even with "leftover" champs and not need like full 6 Void Legos... On my wish list for another video (and i know Hydra is hard to tackle for videos :D ): Priorities for buffs/de-buffs. I know it's 6+ rotations and a million combinations. But w/o 6 top legendaries you can't have all de-buffs and all buffs. So what's most important and/or what's superior if we're missing specific champs? Going High RES Buff heavy or even with a Mischief Tank or do we go de-buff heavy? In general or per rotation... Looking forward to see more vids like this!

[@to7871]

I would love to see you update this one. There have been a lot of new champs in plus the rework of Cillian the Lucky and Gnut

[@Peter75C]

I'm a bit surprised that Rockbresker didn't make the list. Self buffs Counter Attack and a Provoke, and great DEF that increases over time.

[@bradnjaa8578]

Lol the way you spelled all the champs names is perfect 😂 I love it

[@TequilaXD]

Great video. I just leveled my Yannica today to test her with poison set on Hydra and now with high resist/dmg and bloodshield accessory sounds to be great paired with Rector. Let's see the results👍

[@mylesmiller5979]

pulled a duchhess and skull lord this 2x event, was ecstatic for both but knowing skull lord is great in hydra is fantastic!

[@mikehuynh7180]

Have you tried high resist Madame Serris as a tank? It's fairly doable to get her to 400+ resist and 300+ accuracy with endgame gear, and she always puts an extra shield on herself everyturn. She also provides nice buffs strip as well as potential block debuffs

[@ReVeralife]

Yup she’s my first mischief tank, and works… decent? I built high resist/acc for arena anyway. She brings a lot regardless, but as a mischief tank could be much better. The problem is the shield is pretty tiny, so if any head hits her between her turn and mischief’s, she no longer has more buffs. I also use bloodshield ring to help a bit but it’s also tiny. The advantage is if she fails and Mischief strips someone else, you can then strip mischief. As long as your saving that and not using it off cd for the debuffs. If you have anyone with a single target buff would help tho.

[@marlonburch2055]

Love this video! Do you have an updated one?

[@mylesmiller5979]

i really like the sound of vergis+drexthar!! great stuff you freking nub!

[@solstickanrsl]

I think you missed out on one of the best ones. Bivald the Thorn. Brings 2 turn single target strengthen while also provoking and placing aoe leech that cant be weak hit with the same skill. Does some healing too. He is top for me because he is one of the few ones that can counter two heads at the same time (mischief and decay)

[@Sideswipe79]

I wish I could use my Krisk as mischief tank but I don't have the stats to get enough Res and still have speed and accuracy for Doom Tower hard. I do have a Skull Lord that literally only does faction wars. The chances of him getting booked just sky rocketed.

[@DuneCrescent]

I love that no one noticed it says Dragstar for Drexthar on the video tabs XD

[@wileyman4906]

Elder Skarg Is an awesome toon for all kinds of content. I use him in 3v3 Arena, Hydra & Hard Doom Tower. He also makes an awesome spider tank and burner. However, don't waste his damage potential by not giving him crit rate. Build him with 100% crit rate and his A1 will self-buff the Increase Speed every turn instead.

[@ExclusiveTrance]

can someone explain why Husk with 4 buffs is targeted for the buff steal when Krisk is next to him with 12 buffs??? I don't understand why this happens and I'm frustrated 😡

[@crisr.8280]

Already built an Inquisitor, Elder Skarg and Drexthar 1 and 2. Already have at least 1 bloodshield on all four of them. Inquisitor is at 458 resist and slow at 127spd and in a guardian set with 49k hp, 2.7k def and no crit rate so I don't kill torment too quickly. Elder Skarg is at 475 resist and a bit faster at 200spd but still slowest in his team 3 piece stone skin and 3 piece protection actually works wonders getting the right stats to be a good tank with okay speed. Drexthar 1 is fully maxed and booked while drexthar 2 isn't and still at lvl 50 but still amazing in normal

[@foxhoundmj2056]

you are a genius. i am always digging the web for "best mischief tanks" turns out this is the only place i am gonna find it. fantastic hydra content. brilliant.

[@johnhayden8666]

Regarding Cleopterix: there is a Dragonfly called Calopteryx, which means "Beautiful Wing" in Latin, that I believe she is named after (combined with Cleopatra of Egypt). You can look up how to pronounce Calopteryx if you are curious.

[@yashindiamente282]

Nah. Don't like either of those or would consider them beautiful lmao. Since I don't follow the trend of society regardless of the Era

[@damionrarig4299]

Archaeopteryx may have influenced the name as well.

[@mylesmiller5979]

been waiting for this vid forever! thanks!

[@piotrjeske4599]

Interesting and nice that not all of them Void or Void legos or legos

[@Marrero1]

I love using jagg bonesaw, with damage build and res. Can remove all buffs from all heads if you get hit with the 3% deep into a run.

[@damionrarig4299]

I pulled a 6star perfect soul for Wurlim Frost King. I am thinking that he can be viable in Hydra now, as well as doom tower and arena defense. Your thoughts?

[@paulqueen2209]

I don't suppose that we will see an update to this list soon?

[@HarryKingHD]

just the video I was after NoBraids! Just built Oboro and not entirely convinced on her utility

[@LazyGoblinGold]

I have a question for you about this Mischief tanking. As the head goes for the champ with the most buffs, does the steadfast mastery work as a buff? The same way it works in the Demon Lord CB?

[@tiruak]

Any updated list 1 year later? This role is definetely what I strugle the most.

[@dankster990]

Hey what gear i should put on my guurda bogbrew?

[@stonesofvalhalla4630]

There's also Rector Drath, I'd put her on the list before the void dwarf fella who's quite useless (plus if he gets 3%-ed, you got counterattack on all heads, congrats :D )

[@benjaminroe311ify]

Pretty sure we dont rank Rector Drath high as a Mischief Tank because your Mischeif Tank usually needs to be slowest on your team. Usually a Rector or Duchess you'd want very fast to cycle through their turns back to placing veils and revives and healing quickly. You wouldn't make Rector Drath your "Resistance Tank" at least most people wouldn't.

[@chasepeterson1696]

Just last night I was trying to find a good list like this. I am trying a nearly unkillable team with Helicath and a buff extender. Then I want to slot in venus and cupidus in a taunting set. see if i can get away with building everyone with dps and let the block dmg and shield do the work. Hoping that I can get enough dmg so that if Helicath or the buff extender get eaten, i can bust them out righ taway

[@whwiii]

Feel like you undervalue those with multiple buffs. Single buffs don't play well with dutchess et al who put out random single buffs

[@jovan71729]

I realize that you have not mentioned khoronar in this video. He has provokes, attack and defense down also places 2 buffs on himself, counters whenever an enemy attack's. I use him in my hard team was able to get 57mil damage then RNG happened if not for bad RNG I could probably go to 70mil damage. Team was mother Cybele, geo, ma'shalled, sigmond, khoronar and shamael

[@johnnymclemore8255]

Does Shamal's passive fill the group leaders TM or the person who was feared by torment?

[@davena3783]

team leader, the skill description doesn't match the actual effect

1 keyed normal. 1 keyed hard. was sitting there thinking man I really need 1 more mischief tank and thinking who I could use. then I was like man I bet nub has a top ten.... boom. thanks man gg

[@francismetherell4919]

I recently built up Valla for this. 3 turn shield on a 3 turn cooldown.

What about Saito ;? His kit seems perfect to fight hydra, stats are good and easy to get self buffs

[@stimp5772]

Not a tank but a good control champ: teumesia. She does pretty good on my teams. Also a clan mate said he uses madame serris as a tank since she self shields

[@Makha89]

What about Kyoku with blood shield ? Since she has block damage on her, shield will not be destroyed

[@oleggontar2942]

How oboro is being attacked if she is perfect veiled? Also super weird, but the head what i can provoke, indeed as a provoked enemy does only a1, but it still attacks whoever it wants, not the provoker :(

[@amirt.4668]

Hydra heads ignore veiled champs I guess and attack them normally as they are not veiled

[@MrAkyr]

Don't all those mischief tank that are shield based stop working in a team where there is other shields ? I'm thinking brogni for exemple.

[@Azzy-cy9mt]

Bloodshield is a seperate buff to normal shield, also why it's useful for seer teams.

[@omegalama6]

​@@Azzy-cy9mt Bloodshield rings create the same shield that is generated by the abilities (ex. Brogni). The different "shield buff" is the one generated by shield sets or divine sets.

[@omegalama6]

Yes, mischief tanks based on bloodshield rings "only" (like shamael) work much much better if there is no AOE shield support champ in the team. I stopped using brogni with shamael because of that..

[@Jyeoi]

Thx for the info!

[@alexandermcfarlane7609]

The P in Cleopterix is silent like Pterodactyl ( I assume )

I thought this as well. But, if "Pter" (Latin for wing/feather) is in the middle of a word like Helicopter, it isn't silent like it is in Pterodactyl.

Tried Roxam, and he is excellent tank with veil on

[@donkeykong2092]

Was thinking of building him, what difficulty do you use him on?

[@mrcruz1107]

If the tank ain’t nifty, you gotta get shwifty.

[@Ateka9]

So what's the logic behind Drextar? Yeah, we want him to get hit. But how does he buff himself to attract Mischief?

[@siberiusdranden3680]

he needs another party member to target buff him, he can't do it by himself. he needs to be buffed by someone like jizoh or vergis.

[@TheycallmeRpCratchet]

Bivald is a good option also.
