Strong build, for the Strongest DG

Strong build, for the Strongest DG

What the Pro's don't want anyone else to know

Queen of Freaking Thorns baby, lets roll.

 

I dare ANYone to prove me wrong:

 

  1. Save (You are going to need two points next Level)
  2. Entourage+Compost
  3. Save (The awesomeness is coming)
  4. Save AGAIN (Oh my god, it is so close I can taste it)
  5. Entourage 2+Compost 2+Mulch Shambler 1 (BAM Muther Effer, didn't see that coming did you?)
  6. Morale 1
  7. Save (Can't let that awesomness sneak by)
  8. Compost 3+Entourage 3
  9. Morale 2
  10. Mulch Shambler 2

Use the Diamond Pendant favor Item, Buy Scaled Helm + Mana potions at level 1, you'll need them.

Do I even need to describe how to win with this build?

Step 1: Use impossible to beat skill combo

Step 2: OWN people in the FACE. (Collarbone also works)

Step 3: Tell everyone on the internet how awesome it works.

 

Obviously, I've moved on to step 3 myself.


Optional Strategies: You may be thinking that the Morale skill doesn't look good enough compared to all our other heavy hitting strategies, and I understand that.  It may be better to hold off on using these skill points at all.  Luring an opponent into a false sense of security can be the ultimate tactic.

I actually had my little brother play this build online (He doesn't play games, only football, hockey, and he does wrestling) and he was able to beat everyone he faced.  Most of them rage quit after the first instance of STEP 2 (See above).

 

I'm sure other Pro players out there have been abusing this strategy for a while.  Time to fess up guys, and let the world in on our big secret.

What games get to 18th level?

I think I'd change this build so that at level 18, you get 1 point in summon shambler.  Add that and its pretty much a perfect build.  I don't call for nerfs really much at all, but this is pretty much an unfair build an incredibly OP.  Also, I hope our new friends from the demo NEVER read this post. 
psst demo doesnt have QoT.

Games between good players not on cataract, or crucible.

Recently tried that build in 3v1 (QoT vs UB+Sedna+Erebus). We managed to hold her off untill lvl5, then she got her 3x skill combo, and then she pushed us off the lanes in about 5 min. In another 5 min our citadel was down. That build completely destroyed game balance  :annoyed: ! This MUST be nerfed!

At the very least, I think maybe someone should look into why a build of this Quality is even possible for any DG.  Seems like something you should avoid.

If this build decides to by some minions just to be cruel, might as well just quit the game right there and then, because you'll just be wasting the next 5 mins of your life getting owned.

Pro Tip: If you buy idols (minotaurs, priests or siege archers) be sure to let them patrol around your health crystal. Their uber strength will protect your health crystal from getting destroyed.

Very important indeed, Cosmoe.  Not many people know that one of the strongest tactics in the game is to destroy the opponents health crystal. Most noobs don't even know it is possible.

great build! Now I know what I always did wrong! This is so OP, someone nerf QoT please!

Great find. :D

I did not even know that, so thanks for sharing.  Here's my pro tip.  The health crystal in the oppossing team's base will regen all of your health and mana.  This ONLY works for QoT with Diamond Pendant.  Tested this on Mandala and the Brothers so far.  I haven't tried this yet on crucible, but it probably works.  So, mid game (lev 8-12), get the cloak so you can teleport into their base and they more than likely won't be able to get rid of you.  Then its GG.  Seriously though, there will be a nerf soon, so enjoy Qot while she's still OP.

I've recently discovered that combining the Goggles with this build creates an interesting ability for QoT and her Shamblers; the Pathing AI redirects both QoT and her minions around Regulus' mines, basically nullifying the entire ability which, from my experience, when stacking 5 Reguluses is the only way to pose a threat of any kind to this build.

Right now all the new players are trying to figure out what the combo is.

Hmm sounds interesting.

Btw, did someone tried a tactic of all team suicidal run to destroy the enemy's item shop early game?

This well cause you to be outleveled for some time, but it will leave the opposing team with NO ITEMS, which, imo, is autowin.

Did someone do that yet?

AFAIK, this only works on Mandala.

   I tried to figure out a counter build on any of the other demigods that could compete with this level of uselessness.  You can't avoid something useful on every other demigod cept queen lol..  Queen is cream of the crop in this category.

QoT is for Pro only, imo. Yes it reqiures a lot of thinking about build to get all the best skill combos she has and not to take the not needed ones (which entrap you by looking good but are not so usefull on practice). Luckily we now know that one.
