What’s the strat vs chargers / smiter? Plague then guided? Thanks


yeah unless they are tele smiter, just bait them into your plague and once you get them plagued, tele around and GA away. If they have cleasing, just gotta repeat.

If they charge, just keep tele out of range and guided, plague etc. if they Tele smite, use plague then light bolt or light fury and run diff directions (never up), I like south west. Tele up to reset, always keep a plague cloud up

This is really your only 1 sided matchup where a good smiter should win 95% of the time.

Cool cool good info. I'll switch them out and do more duels.

And why is windy druid so hard to kill! I swear I died like 10 times to this guy today haha he was so good though. Was very cool about it. Told me to use more multishot. But I don't think he was getting hit much.



Multi them on approach, all summons will die, they will try to recast, chase them and spam more multi. They will be stuck recasting the entire duel lol.

Perfect. Will do.

I just dueled a hdin and first time I stopped teleing around and just walked south while spamming GA and light fury. It actually worked really good and killed him for the first time in like 8 duels haha

Do you guys do that too sometimes? When they telestomp just walk south or other direction and they can't hit me with hammers. I was walking zig zag while GA, plague, light fury.

Do 1 point light fury do more dmg than GA? LF seems to kill them easier for some reason.

Yeah walking is better vs pallies in general

Gotcha really good to know. I was surprised how it turned out. The dude never talked in game and first time he said gds. Haha it was like a 3 mins long duel

Nice! As you learn how to fight each matchup, you’ll get to the point where you almost never lose

dudu / smiter is the most difficult imo.

I have be respecing from hybrid bowa / java (light) to hybrid bowa / plague. unsure which is best.

Druid was, but not nearly as hard as smiter. The strat vs Druid is pretty simple: kill summons on approach, strafe if they don’t run away. If they run, chase them but don’t tele stomp just get close and keep multi put their summons, if you get close enough throw in a strafe.

I have a zon with all 3, and she rips, although I don’t break out the bow side often on that one haha.

Imho wind druid is one of these matchups where classic fort-gmb-frw bowa works better. When he is close and trying to stomp you just strafe him 2, max 3 times and runaway little bit, avoiding nados.
Generally most of random pubs dudus should be quite easy. It's harder against good ones with 39dr but still you should have good odds.
Probably MB druid could be almost unbeatable but luckily none of them won't sacrifice 163fcr :)
