Dual-Tank Earth (2.6.9)

Player Guide: Innovative Earth Build with Dual Tanks and Elizabeth Bathory

In the ever-evolving meta of Infinity Kingdom, experimenting with different immortal combinations can yield surprisingly powerful results. One such innovative setup replaces the typical powerhouse Alexander with a dual tank frontline, spotlighting Charles and Yi Sun-Shin, and positions Elizabeth Bathory as a key damage dealer. This guide will explore the nuances of this build, suitable for various levels of spending.

Core Strategy

The essence of this build lies in its robust defense coupled with devastating damage potential from the backline. Charles and Yi Sun-Shin serve as the immovable objects up front, mitigating incoming damage and controlling the pace of the battle, while Elizabeth Bathory, equipped with Blade Vortex and Executioner, unleashes significant damage.

Immortal Roles and Skill Sets

Charles (Tank):

  • Skills: Energy Shield, Guard, Fighting Master
    • Energy Shield and Guard enhance his tanking capabilities by boosting defense and mitigating damage.
    • Fighting Master provides control immunity, ensuring his protective abilities remain uninterrupted.

Yi Sun-Shin (Tank):

  • Skills: Weakening Curse, Berserk Aura, and either Assist or Purify
    • Weakening Curse debuffs enemies, reducing their effectiveness in combat.
    • Berserk Aura enhances the attack potential of allies.
    • Choose Assist to redirect damage from key allies to Yi Sun-Shin, or Purify to cleanse detrimental effects, tailored to your battlefield needs.

Elizabeth Bathory (Key Damage Dealer):

  • Skills: Blade Vortex, Executioner, Battle Stance
  • This skill combination maximizes her damage output, particularly effective with her damage-over-time ultimate.

Zenobia (Healer and Control – Default Low Spender Option):

  • Skills: No Escape, Spring of Life, Vitality Touch
    • Provides healing, crowd control, and enhances survivability, making her invaluable for sustained fights.

Variations for Different Spending Levels

  • Mid Spender Variation: Replace Zenobia with Himiko to add powerful magical damage and superior control with skills like Armageddon and Annihilation.
  • High Spender Variation: Swap in Loki alongside Bathory for even greater control and damage, leveraging Loki’s Confuse ability.

Tactical Considerations

  • Frontline Flexibility: Adjust Yi Sun-Shin’s skills based on the specific threats you face. Assist enhances the durability of your backline immortals, while Purify can be crucial against teams with heavy debuff strategies.
  • Backline Adjustments: Depending on your choice between Zenobia, Himiko, or Loki, tweak the frontline to balance defense and offense. For instance, if using Himiko or Loki, swap Guard to Yi Sun-Shin and No Escape to Charles to maintain high troop counts on Charles and thus high shield values. If you are using Blade Stance on a Loki or Himiko for the added control and damage, you can swap in Demonic Contract on Bathory.

Strategic Outcomes

This build excels against various prevalent setups, including earth-based Loki teams, most holy configurations, and even some chaos builds. The dual tank configuration allows for sustained frontline presence, which in combination with the high output from Bathory can dismantle opponents effectively.

Conclusion

While no build guarantees invincibility, this earth-based strategy provides a robust framework that can lead to success in diverse combat scenarios. Whether you’re a small, mid, or high spender, this guide offers a scalable approach to crafting a formidable earth team. Experiment with the recommended setups and tailor your strategy to overcome specific opponents, pushing the limits of what your earth team can achieve in Infinity Kingdom.
