We recently discussed the Regular Hybrid SP TR & Hybrid SP RD , Hybrid “Annihilator” and now we are introducing the Hybrid “Tank”.

1. The Hybrid Life “Tank”
The Equilibrium
a state of balance achieved by two forces in motion

2. We recently discussed the Regular Hybrid SP TR & Hybrid SP RD , Hybrid “Annihilator” and
now we are introducing the Hybrid “Tank”.
A combination of the regular Hybrid with SpellCaster stats with an emphasis on
SPELLPOWERS and high Defense & LIFE + LIFE debuff.
As there are 6 important stats in place we should all know 6 by heart. And the 7th
too.
1) Defense
2) Attack
3) Range
4) Life
5) Combatspeed
6) Accuracy
7) Spellpower
So why focus on LIFE in buff & debuff in this preset? The following example of the hussar
does give a clue. As you see at base stats the Hussar has a Defense stat of 130 but has a Life
stat of 2800. We all use Hussars for attacking with high defense in TR Preset. Yet the Life stat
is much higher.

3. Defense and Life are important due to the calculation that KoC uses to
determine kills. The calculation is:
(life_of_attacked) / (attack_of_attacker – defense_of_attacked)
If we can have high Life stats in a Preset and at the same time Debuff Life of the
opponent, then we have a good upper hand in the battle.
In KOC they gave it the name Life, but in other games, especially RPG games they
refer to it as “Hit Points”. It is the total amount of damage your troop can
withstand before it is considered dead.
Currently the Life buff & debuff Cap is as follows;
Life 250% -50%
The Stats Of this Preset:
As you can see High Defense with reasonable Attack Debuff + High Combat
Speed. And importantly high Life and High Life Debuff. We sacrificed some
Defense to get that compared to the previous tanks.

4. Cards Used In Preset :

6.  Note: The “Forgotten Sigil” comes in 2 versions, where 1 has ATTACK on 5th
line and the other 1 has DEFENSE on 5th line.
 If you are Lucky, and have both, you can compensate with the Sigil the
Defense stats. And the Sigil has also Life.
 The Tapestry is the Key Factor as it has so much Life Debuff. If you don’t
have a Tapestry like that, set it in salvage rules or look for similar cards.
 Similar cards or alternative Cards
 And of course with the stats getting higher on the cards, you can also swap
out jewels on 6th line for Life jewels.
The Battle Reports :

8.  Here you see that the defender had already high Life in his TR, I didn’t
debuff it completely, but I got the full cap on my own Life.
 As you can see, my Hussar’s were Sacced and the Life stats are higher then
the Defense stats.

9. The Battle Reports :
 Again due to the Life Debuff Tapestry a big part of his Life is removed.
While keeping the upperhand in Life buff

10. The Battle Reports :

11. So this is Basically how you use this multifunctional Hybrid LIFE “Tank” TR.
For best results you will need the RARE troops & Souls. Combined with the trainable
SpellCasters you can do very well in this advanced Hybrid LIFE “Tank”
So to Conclude,
 You can tweak this TR, You can Tweak the Troops to adapt to your needs
 Keep defense stats minimal at 20k ( or higher)
 Add combat speed minimal 4k but higher if possible
 Add life, Life debuff as much as possible.
 Use accuracy as high as possible, it will make you kill more troops effectively
 Use accuracy DEBUFF when you have it.
 Use SPELLPOWER + SPELLPOWER debuff, as much as you can without compromising
the TR
 Add as much attack debuff as you can
 Do NOT MIX siege walls with Shield Sorcerers, use 1 or the other.
 Even with Lower TR items you can come close the obtainable goals.
 Sacrifice Hussars + Souls Or
 Sacrifice Hcav + Shield Sorcerers
 By sending these kind of troops as in examples, you can still go everyway with the
Presets you have available, aka switch to different Hybrid Presets you have.
 The more SpellCasters you can use, the better it is. The best number for Shield
Sorcerers is 350k. But you have seen 100k does well too! But it is really a minimum.
 The Best number for Soul Stealers is 50k, as a rare troop this is not always possible,
but 20k as a bare minimum does very well too.
 Pairing SoulStealers with Shield Sorcerers is a very effective lethal combo.
 Remember, do not always use the same presets, mix your attacks especially in
prolonged battles, as you will become predictable and your defender will adapt
eventually.

12.  It will also work with just Horsed Troops + Siege walls Or Shield Sorcerers.
If you need a fast result, it is basically a normal Tank , enhanced with
SpellCasters.

Sharing is knowledge, and a lot of players are not sharing. Yes, it gives you and edge, or advantage, but
it leaves also many people clueless. The objective of these tutorials, is to teach, learn, educate players so ALL players have
a better under understanding of the game. The more players participate, the better the overall experience is for all players.
More attacking and defending means “lively” domains full of activity.
