Thanks Bagel, i was a bit lost with the Tricaru team and now I completely understand thanks to you breaking it down. Love the idea for the series, can't wait to see more teams!
As a returning player, I love the series and I hope you do more. I was actually about to research Tricaru since I'm stuck on stage 11 after coming back from a year long break
Meta Bagel is my favorite Bagel tbh. Also I've been waiting for an in depth explanation of BJR5 from you bc I feel like it'd finally kick my butt in gear for it
Really appreciate this. Ever since I started watching all your videos religiously and applying what you talk about has really changed my account for the better so I know it’ll help new, returning players or even players that have reached but can’t quit climb over the end game wall.
Dude this is an amazing idea! It’s awesome how much you help out the community and bridge the gap between the experienced and new players! Keep it up man 😁
@@potato0fdoom267 If you don't know the basics of how to rune, just go violent until you learn...nobody is doing Despair Vigor and Swift Juno....when in doubt, just vio/will
Just got back after 1 year and i'm finding things like b12, new dungeons, ARTIFACTS?!, toa hell??? new meta is speed team with DOTS?!?! What a mess... I mean, this series was really needed now more then ever. Thank you bagel.
Yes. Please teach me to build teams for all of the content. For me, this is one of the best, most useful, helpful videos on Summoners War I have ever seen. I like this style. Thank you.
Thanks Bagel, it's a good format to show some common and popular teams in detail! Always wanted to build tricaru or the mellia dot team but don't know the stats they need!
Oooh, I love this idea for a series. If you explain why these teams are meta, it can help people understand better, rather than just emulating what they see and being unable to figure out why it's not working if it fails. (I am not excluding myself from this group lol)
Just came back to the game today, after about a year's break. This is what I was working on before I took that nice long break. Good to see your videos again.
Loved it. This instantly improved my tricaru team that kept failing even though I met the required defense, wasn't aware of all the other little things that went with it.
Man i just came to play after like 4 years and let me tell you with the updated and the fun im having with a decent guild im loving the game all over again plus your videos always keep me up to date thanks for that bagel
that series is actually a nice idea!!! i would also love to see the dimensional teams. maybe also achievement hunting in 2021 (r5 with single elements)
Hey bagel just wanted to mention the tabler at 13:50 is kinda different now since towers go to lvl 20 , might screw some newer people , if there is an exisiting one with levels 1-20 instead would be nice to replace it , great video tho and keep up the amazing work !
Hi returning player and long subscriber here. This series is perfect for me Bagel thank you :) Finished Tricaru without you but need to get the dots team and BJ running. Thanks
1 thing I would love to see is a video on the best siege attack and defense teams for both 4 and 5 star bases. Doesn't have to be very detailed but a nice showcase of different teams would be pretty cool. edit: I realize it can be hard to keep track and keep up with building a bunch of different pvp teams as new teams keep coming out and other ones become less relevant so maybe a tier list or quick recap every few months would be a good idea? Not necessarily stuff you have built but stuff you're commonly seeing?
Looks like today was a good day to play again, i've been saving the freebie stuff with check ins when I remembered during my break haha, these videos will help tons
For people that can't get the def stats for the tricaru to work, you can use Verde, tricaru and add a fast Kunite (fire gargoyle), the fire gargoyle won't brake the combo since he would never be used in the team up, and you can load him with determination runes or fight runes, it won't make the team faster, but it will be safer and it won't break the combo
Thanks for the video Bagel! 💖 love this idea, very helpful & can't wait for the rest. Siege/GW defenses and offenses sound great too eventually but I agree PvE should be priority
Great idea! I love this and think it would be great for you to cover all the PvE meta teams, including the D-hole and whatever PvP content you think fits the Meta teams idea. Good luck with the series! I have a feeling it will be a big series in multiple ways.
This is going to be so helpful, thank you! I returned to the game and had to build entirely new teams for those B12 stages. Tricaru and dots team are almost done :D
Cool series bagel! Would really like to see the dimensional rift dungeons as well and RTA meta teams. Such as first turn teams, second turn teams etc and what common strong units are for that.
The big gain of that specific Verde skin is chance to ohko trash. If I remember correctly animation is slightly SLOWER but both hits occus AFTER defbreaking attempts. And leaving the fastest Icaru, should also be best dmg one, without transmog also allows him to hit on defbroken trashtarget more often.
If you leave your highest atk icaru un-transmoged, it's animation is slightly slower so it with always hit last, after the defence break has been applied, so it will guarantee the most damage to the enemy unit and it will speed up your time by a few seconds.
I would like to see them all, and in order of most to least important, so PVE > PVP. Guild/siege battle offense & defense, arena offense & defense, Dhole 2A teams for each element of each monster family(ie. Elunia), Dhole rune farming teams, Dhole predator for each rotation with different elements, ToA normal, hard and hell speed, auto and manual teams respectively, Secret dungeons, Hall of Magic/Elements, Tartarus labyrinth (Hell) stages & bosses, and World Boss. I know a lot of content creators have addressed each of these areas in the past, but it would be nice to have them all compiled in one location in modern times.
Great idea of a series! 100% love to see SWO teams and builds. There is a lot of G3 content out there, so a G1 SWO would be perfect! Also love to see D Hole R5 teams.... and if you need to use twins just use the damn twins :P
I love this idea and would love to see some content on the tart basses on at least hard, as well as all the dimensional hole dungeons even is it is a whole area(second awaken plus the main boss) in one video
Just to make things a little clearer, when the Icaru is using team up, only 1 of the icarus are using s1 so technically the fastest icaru doesn't need as much accuracy as the slower ones
11:32 there is one exception it will make easier to build but longer runs which is by using Kunite the Fire Gargoyle ( this is idea i heard from seamb vid about the triacu ) the idea is if you can't have enough def you can use him with determination rune but he need to be the fastest he will atk and turn into statue base on it passive and it can't team up with the icarus . i wouldn't bather to do it though . there is to failed if you couldn't finish without the dragon get a turn Kunite hp will be less then 70% and he will not turn into statue or dead and you want him to be dead in that time
So excited for this series! I'd love to see GW and siege counters to meta teams AND some alternatives mons for certain meta teams. Like alternative GB12 dot team if someone is missing a 2nd Melia, or NB12 without Astar. Regardless, lookin forward to this
I'd love to see all caiross dungeons done (which is basically 2 teams now with tricaru and dots), gw and siege would be awesome as well, and toah would be great. But the team I would love to see next is 100% starter R5 because it would fit my current gameplan the most right now.
For anyone having issues meeting requirements. I use fire gargoyle with terrible determination runes. The runes give icaurus more def, and gargoyle turns himself into stone and can't be pulled into team up. He has to be the fastest mon, and the syncing does get off every once in a while.
You can do dimensional teams and arena also.. Yes you can just lushen anything but spotlight some cleavees, bomb teams, bruiser comps.. And some good AD and the concept behind them
i love these type of series keep up the good work anddd is anyone always scared that one day randomly jewbagel will see all your monster runes and judge you to oblivion or is that just me 🙃
Love the idea! Dot team next? I guess the basics b12 should be first then the rest? You can also cover up the teams for dhole real quick if some of the basics b12 needs a 2A monster
if you're struggling with stats fire gargoyle helps! his passive makes it so he freezes up and doesn't take a turn, so the tricaru effect will still happen, and you can load him with determination runes so that you get a bunch of free defense on your team! At least that's how it was explained to me, feel free to correct me if im wrong :)
The only unit you can use as a 5th unit is a gargoyle that cannot teamup. But the added time the gargoyle takes actually reduces the average speed of the run. Edit: @bagel Shield actually has 1turn left when the dragon takes a turn if you barely make it before immunity gets up. I saw this happen a few times when the 15% resist said "not today son" and the dragon didn't get defence broken the first 3 tricaru turns
it should be noted that now tower level max was doubled and each level is worth half, so just divide your tower level in half before using the chart in this video. Also, the stats are additive, you can see in the chart that 4(8) tower levels (8%) more is worth the same as 1 determination set (8%).
when tricaru was first put out, i thought it would be insane to run a chow water defense lead with everything on determ thinking the icarus would team up with chow verde and the other icarus to add damage to it.... cried a bit when i actually read icarus skill...
Kunite can be a 5th mons in tricaru to hold determination runes for people getting started and can't quite meet the def requirements. He just has to be the fastest on the team. It only adds like 3 seconds to the team as well.
This was a super helpful video and let me know how far away I am from being able to build this team. Thanks! I look forward to the rest of this series :)
Do it all we need teams for everything
Yea i would like to see the dimensional hole teams too 👍
Same I need it
I think a monthly dimensional predator team would also be super helpful
verde fran kro lushen cleanse EZ Pred
@@Z410_ rage verde? Or violent?
@@Z410_ than it's kheldrun and you can only take 4 monsters, and verse kro and lushen can't be on the same team.
Thanks Bagel, i was a bit lost with the Tricaru team and now I completely understand thanks to you breaking it down. Love the idea for the series, can't wait to see more teams!
this is basically a birthday present lmao. thanks for this series!
I feel like this could be a series that repeated every 4 or 5 months with updates to areas which change (primarily would be PvP in changes)
As a returning player, I love the series and I hope you do more. I was actually about to research Tricaru since I'm stuck on stage 11 after coming back from a year long break
Meta Bagel is my favorite Bagel tbh. Also I've been waiting for an in depth explanation of BJR5 from you bc I feel like it'd finally kick my butt in gear for it
Love this series. as a returning player this is exactly what im looking for. You could definitely farm it for plenty of content.
Returning player here also, I just logged in to my account for the first time in two years. So many changes....
Really appreciate this. Ever since I started watching all your videos religiously and applying what you talk about has really changed my account for the better so I know it’ll help new, returning players or even players that have reached but can’t quit climb over the end game wall.
this is like literally perfect. just the last two days I was wondering why people build tricaru and the bagel comes out with this video likkeee tyyy
Do them all. This will make this the go-to playlist for people looking to improve! Especially D-hole and GW
Dude this is an amazing idea! It’s awesome how much you help out the community and bridge the gap between the experienced and new players! Keep it up man 😁
I would love to see siege defense teams with the rune sets they should be on.
with minimum sttats
Violent, always violent
When in doubt, Vio. let them prog the enemy to death.
@@jefff5859 Not ALWAYS. Sometimes despair would be better. Sometimes swift.

Just came back to this game after a long while and this video served its exact purpose. Thanks, Bagel.
THIS. This is exactly what we need Bagel, you´re the best thanks you for everything. We love you Bagel
This is exactly what i needed! Returning to the game after like 5 years. Glad to see you were still making videos!
Holy shit, me too! About 4 but, still. Just happy to see I'm not alone!
Thanks Bagel, it's a good format to show some common and popular teams in detail! Always wanted to build tricaru or the mellia dot team but don't know the stats they need!
Oooh, I love this idea for a series. If you explain why these teams are meta, it can help people understand better, rather than just emulating what they see and being unable to figure out why it's not working if it fails. (I am not excluding myself from this group lol)

thank you so much for putting this together. I've heard of this team for a while but never knew how it worked. Starting my build now!
Meta GW/Siege and also DH teams would be amazing as well!
Man i just came to play after like 4 years and let me tell you with the updated and the fun im having with a decent guild im loving the game all over again plus your videos always keep me up to date thanks for that bagel
Dimension hole rune farming, people don’t farm them much but gives so much great stuff
I finally got my tricaru team working undefeated in dragons and necro b12 dungeons thanks for the great video.
This series is great and just in time for me. I took a huge break and am getting back into the game again so it’s nice to know what’s meta again.
I just recently started building tricaru, so I really needed this!❤️
love the idea, defintely do pvp teams after u cover the pve teams
Thank you for this bagel :D a series like this will surely help a lot!
i realy love the idea of the pve teams, i'm mostly a pve player and everybody guides are from pvp, this is pure gold
that series is actually a nice idea!!! i would also love to see the dimensional teams. maybe also achievement hunting in 2021 (r5 with single elements)
Hey bagel just wanted to mention the tabler at 13:50 is kinda different now since towers go to lvl 20 , might screw some newer people , if there is an exisiting one with levels 1-20 instead would be nice to replace it , great video tho and keep up the amazing work !

Yes please. Make this a thing. Currently building the Dot team and it would just be nice to know what runes and artifacts other people use.
Just what I needed! I recently returned to the game and was really lost in new meta, ty Bagel
Would definitely watch each and every one of these videos! Great for new players and even mid game players that need help tuning their teams
Thanks for the video Bagel! 💖 love this idea, very helpful & can't wait for the rest. Siege/GW defenses and offenses sound great too eventually but I agree PvE should be priority

This is going to be so helpful, thank you!

Tricaru and dots team are almost done :D
Love this idea, Bagel! Please do all the PVE teams at least! Cairos dungeons, D Hole B5, maybe even some Lab Boss teams!
Cool series bagel!

*Gets less than a second faster with the transmogs* “Yeah I see a difference.”
Fire tower helps a lot for BJ5 also so it's really nice to have it maxxed

Do everything! These videos will help a lot of starter players!

Bagel sounds and looks like he’s in a extremely important Business meeting
I'm worried for your business
@@kevinkchao8 yea me too 🤣
Well. I finally got my Tricaru working and now you've shown why I am only hitting ~90s. I totally didn't know it was verde doing all the damage, lol.
awesome series! Please go on! I just needed something like this as im building the teams just now :) Thanks for help
This vid came right on time, building tricaru
Kunite can be a 5th mons in tricaru to hold determination runes for people getting started and can't quite meet the def requirements. He just has to be the fastest on the team. It only adds like 3 seconds to the team as well.
Yeah! I'd love to see some standard arena defenses.. not a lot of videos on them so it'd be good content

Perfect series for me as a new player.
Great series! I would love seeing arena, rta, and guild meta teams. Especially if you update it when the meta changes
Great video, I learned so much. Thank you! Can't wait for more of these
