Had an amazing time nerding out on all the defenders with you. Really love these types of videos and collabs and looking forward to seeing the rest of the series!
@ we are ranking the top heroes in the game in the defender class, not the top tanks. "Just Melee Dolores" is HUGE and game-changing. Also entirely unique and 1/1
@@fastidious_gg dang man! Got defensive, huh? 😂 it's ok fasti. Constance is awesome. I use her more than Brokkir. I didn't comment on the defender class though. I said he was the best tank 😛. Dolores is awesome, so of course melee Dolores is going to be awesome. What I said stands as accurate though. Brokkir is the best tank. Out of those two 😛 I know next to nothing about this game. Your knowledge of WoR is second to none. I would not dream of questioning it. Brokkir is the better tank though. That's all I said lol. If I did this video, and my criteria was "best in class" - then my decision would be based on what are they the best at? Constance is irreplaceable in some content. You can sub in another good tank for Brokkir. I totally understand why you put Constance first.
@@VolmezAddams maybe a bit. reading a lot of bad takes so finally thought enough was enough ;) in terms of tanking, I mean duh of course brokkir is better. but the criteria is best hero that is a defender not best tank that is a defender.
Love your guys’ perspectives in #1 and #2. It really is just about priorities and i agree with both of your guys’ reasons for them being where they’re ranked
LOVED the video. Being about 2 months into the game my Olague is a very nice tanker. I am kind of really waning one of your top 3 and while Brokkir would be a GREAT addition I am very crafty in my play styles and believe that I would have great success with Constance. (there are a couple of Lord Defenders that would be account changing also if I got extremely lucky) Thank you once again and I need to re-watch this several times. The first time through I kept being distracted by Slate's smile. (I am only human)
Weird fact, Defender is the only class that I don't have even a single lego hero with full skill ups. So much content you NEED your damage doing max damage that pretty much any damage dealer I can see using in multiple forms of content, or NEEDING in a specific piece of content in order to progress, they get skill ups. Supports get skill ups when they have something SO good you really want it maxed (like Elowyn rage regen or Ferssi damage reduction,) but I've yet to run into content where I felt like I NEEDED to max out a tank's skills in order to progress.
Thanks so much for this series! Truck was my first leggo, however he is fast losing usefulness as I’m getting to mid game. This series is helping me choose better places to put my leg skill crystals. I literally just pulled Raiden today, so I’ll be looking into him, but I also pulled Twyla as well. Thankfully I saw your video and knew that she was crap. I pulled Orim about a week ago and played a little with him and could see that he was total junk before wasting any skill crystals to see that. I still haven’t pulled Regulus and I’ve been playing 4mo.
On that video I had one or two that were higher than her, but maybe I was focusing on the negative parts since I knew I had at least one or two higher. Like this this video here (still watching btw) I have both brokkir and Constance, and Constance is maxed I think since I got her pretty early, so I’ll be spending to get Brokkir built up.
Trusk is also really nice in stages where bosses shoot projectiles at the latest unit placed but during trusk ulti he makes the boss focus him AND does dmg to the boss regardless of range because his counter isnt just melee. The only tank I use more than Trusk is Cyrus but most people dont have both. Trusk team baby. And as a bonus he gets a revive at A5 :)
Love the series and special guests. Slate adds great counterpoints and brings her PvP influenced perspective. 3300 summons (approx 3500 including Ancients), 35 unique leggo on the roster and I've pulled one legendary defender... Azhor. I'm with Fasti ...just delete him and start over, Moonton.
This list just goes to show how starved we are of defenders lol. I would like to see defenders with some mini utility more, such as damage increase to the unit behind them, maybe some extra pen, a parry mechanic, anti heal during an ult or something
I think that Krodor’s new ability being content limited is ridiculous. I really can’t think of an amazing use for it in anything but codex, and even then, most other codex bosses have a hero that can cheese them so why can’t Krodor be that hero? Does anybody know why they limited his ability?
Maybe a comment more befitting the healer video, but I'd like to see Crit Rate apply on heals. I think it should have some impact, even if the hero isn't dealing damage.
What's it take to have an account takeover? Love this game. Roughly 280 days in. Lots of amazing heroes, but I seem to be missing something. Would love to know what
really impossible to ignore the lord skill. that's why we ranked them separate. Roughly tho, Cyrus would be #1, torodor would go between regulus and reve, ghan would go after regulus, harz would go after krodor
@fastidious_gg thank you! I get what you're saying haha, I mean I do use torodor as one of my defenders and he is a solid defender(just expensive) but obv if I can place a defender I'm placing nightmare fighters so he serves multiple roles. Reason for my question is I pulled ghan not sure if I should build him as a backup defender, cuz I'm certainly not using him for cerberus and durza as a lord. Unfortunately I do not have ardea,valdy etc and the other great chaos heroes. I also lack brokkir and constance and prefer using olague for example instead of regulus and that.
I wonder if I'm not using Constance correctly, given that I'm not really using her... But yeah, having constance as a defender is a bit.... she's not a tank.
@@nhbglace6677 There is a myth that you cat will eat you if you die. This is NOT TRUE!!! If you become incapacitated your cat will begin to eat you. It WILL NOT wait for you to actually die.
Absolutely hate asshor, I got him on the nascent AND on the elowyn banner I sold both let me explain, I tried him and I had LOW expectations and he was under them I hate him and I will always hate him

Slate needs a World of Tanks sponsorship asap
the perfect match.
We need a badass Dwarf who either yeets anvil at enemies or just drops forged weaponry on enemies. Dwarves have been shafted in WOR
hard shafted
I want a Dorf yeeting anvils and I will die a happy man.

Whenever the defender codex rolls around I through a skill crystal into someone lol eventually one of them will get there
I think it would be cool to rank the lords as just regular champs without the lord skill.
Put the skills matter

glad you are enjoying the vids tho and they are helping you :)

New lore unlocked: Sweet good boy puppy.
he's a star now
Impossible to dislike him.
Also a big Trusk fan, I call him Zapsalotl and Gutzilla

he is a DISASTER
just got Cyrus today, but i will never forget about my buddy brokkir who got me trough all kinds of stuff
CYRUS #1 CAMPEON DE EL MUNDO!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
My dream has been crushed 1 minute into the video
that was my intent yes
I concur!!
You ripped my heart out with that switch for Azhor. 💔.
SHE CONVINCED ME
@fastidious_gg SHE ALSO PUT SOLC AS THE 10TH BEST LORD. HOW MUCH MOAR BETRAYAL KEN I TAKE? 😭😭😭😭😭😭
This list just goes to show how starved we are of defenders lol.
I would like to see defenders with some mini utility more, such as damage increase to the unit behind them, maybe some extra pen, a parry mechanic, anti heal during an ult or something
yup. 33 fighters. 9 defenders.

Yep it’s really silly
Defenders... the most exciting topic in WOR. ;D
slate makes it fun I think
I just tune out the defender talk and look at Slatiepooh.
Maybe a comment more befitting the healer video, but I'd like to see Crit Rate apply on heals. I think it should have some impact, even if the hero isn't dealing damage.
this would terrible imo. only makes them more stat hungry and harder to gear

hey all price and info can be found here: fastidious.gg/takeovers
Actually intrigued how lord defenders rank too, simply as a unit when ignoring the lord bonus
Cyrus 1st, torodor 2nd, hartz and ghan interchangeable behind brokkir and constance
really impossible to ignore the lord skill. that's why we ranked them separate. Roughly tho, Cyrus would be #1, torodor would go between regulus and reve, ghan would go after regulus, harz would go after krodor
@@davidepanceri8192 torodor WITHOUT lord skill ahead of constance and brokkir? that's insane
@fastidious_gg thank you! I get what you're saying haha, I mean I do use torodor as one of my defenders and he is a solid defender(just expensive) but obv if I can place a defender I'm placing nightmare fighters so he serves multiple roles.

Unfortunately I do not have ardea,valdy etc and the other great chaos heroes. I also lack brokkir and constance and prefer using olague for example instead of regulus and that.
24 legendarys, and i only got constance, which she absolutely gets wrecked as a tank good utility, though, but i just need a good tank.
I wonder if I'm not using Constance correctly, given that I'm not really using her...
But yeah, having constance as a defender is a bit.... she's not a tank.
She absolutely is. If you want hybrid build, put her in glacier
It's time to do a new review of Kai
Why can't people understand? We can't include King Harz with the regular Defenders or he'd win the entire top5!
Orim is obviously the best (non-Harz) defender. Just look at that gigantic hat! Only a TRUE sigma could carry off that hat!
I guess not using Regulus right, trusk works better for me than lion defender
really depends on the content!
Reeve was my first event last year, so was my first lego tank 😊 him and got trusk/ologue early so had easy tank time early / mid game
That's awesome!
Nice 👍🏻😁
Reve carried me forever.
reve a god
What about Cyrus and Toro?
And Ghan ^^
what about watching the video :D
@@fastidious_gg Perfect reply. I salute you.
It's notable that the third best tank can not be pulled.
he can be pulled from his limited banner. which will come back.
Can i get a heart for my birthday in 5 days ?🎉🎉🎉awesome vid btw
happy pre-lated bday
In 5 days you greedy bastich!
@fastidious_gg lets gooo😃😃😃
Brokkir wins by far. True tank.
myopic view. a take as ice-cold as brok
Love these videos. Especially with Slates gorgeous face. Sorry fasti she’s prettier than you
not gonna argue with that lol
Love these
We need more tanks that can tank and do damage. Way to many useless tanks with out survival methods to deal with taking huge damage:
Thx for the video!
MEOW
i hate that u like cats. ruins the vibe
@@fastidious_gg ;-; But cats are cute
@@nhbglace6677 There is a myth that you cat will eat you if you die. This is NOT TRUE!!! If you become incapacitated your cat will begin to eat you. It WILL NOT wait for you to actually die.
Orim is not first....
if you're not first you're last, Ricky Bobby
Magda borrit comp best
if you mean GR5, magda absolutely does not work for DPS unfortunately. You need physical dmg
@fastidious_gg ya I'm still early game
Absolutely hate asshor, I got him on the nascent AND on the elowyn banner I sold both let me explain, I tried him and I had LOW expectations and he was under them I hate him and I will always hate him
Olague>>Regulus imo
@@jubinkhatri7997 late game regulus is twice as good. But early on for sure the Log is the goat
@fastidious_gg it may because I am late mid if it is then I am sleeping on him
Where's Ciro? That mfs literally can tank everything better than Brokkir
I stated like 5 times that this is for non-lord. including less than one min into the video.
I’m turning off if she says “like” one more time. So annoying. Please talk over her Fasty.
she's an amazing player. you would be smart to listen to what she's gotta say
Like is for someone being nervous.
I think that people get into the habit of saying "like" while they are thinking, putting their exact thoughts in order. (she is human)
@ totally. I say “uh” a lot
