Effective 3 man comp?

[EremiteAngel.9765]

I think I read somewhere that we will be able to queue as a team of 3.

What do you guys think would be some of the more effective 3 man comps?

Would going full dps or bunker or mixture work better?

 

My own guess is that a strong comp would probably be:

 

Torment Herald

Power Herald

Burn Guard

 

Good mobility to focus and chase. Good CC. Good spike damage. Good cleave pressure on downs.

 

My own thoughts are that full dps Teams will do better than mixed or bunker teams.

[Leonidrex.5649]

3x power builds that mass stealth and 1shot might be a thing.

1 thief to perma stealth and something like power rev+support warrior or some other wanky combinations of sorts could work.

[Tycura.1982]

Firebrand/Tempest

Blood Necro

Herald

 

[Revolution.5409]

FB + Necro + Condi Herald

FB + Condi Herald + Condi Herald

FB + Necro + Necro

 

[Avatar.3568]

3 ele, maybe even 3 tempest

 

3 necro, fear of doom,

 

2 burnguard 1 support necro

 

3 Lich to one shot one

 

Core ranger, druid, soulbeast maybe(?)

 

Revs, tons of revs

[Tayga.3192]

3 power scourges

Stop stealing my comp >:C

[Pepsi.3610]

Power Reaper

Condi Core Necro

FB symbol

[Falan.1839]

Tempest, Rev, Nec, either with Condi Core and Mallyx or Shiro and Reaper

Tempest, Rev, Holo could also work decently, since it was a lot of res potential with Toss Eli R and Ele Glyph

 

3v3 will mostly utilize the builds that are meta in 5v5 Conquest already, minus the roamers and the sidenoders, and possibly minus the builds that are purely focused on area/node denial

[Stand The Wall.6987]

3 dwarf revs

[ollbirtan.2915]

1 mesmer and 2 clones

Problem is the optimal teamcomp will be Firebrand and 2 semi-tanky bruiser builds. Way too easy to stop a one-shot comp with that.

nah, tripple scourge will counter that

[Gamble.4580]

Blood Scourge, power rev and tempest.

[MysteryMen.3791]

there will be a lot of meme comps coming out of nowhere but since its 3v3 which is about the size of a normal teamfight it will probably just be part of the current 5v5 comps. Condi rev/firebrand/necro, power rev/tempest/condi rev or something similar, maybe with a renegod in there.

if done properly, the only thing that would stop such a burst would be passive or lucky dodge, you can stack "tanky" builds all you want, but if you eat 25 vulnerability and 30k+ burst in 0,2s nothing saves you, ofc it would require practice and coordination, and failure to deliver would be very punishing but if on coms, and with some practice I could see it being seriously devastating.

[Paradoxoglanis.1904]

Three 1 shot mes and/or thieves. Just keep resetting and stealthing until you get a down, then use steal or MoD to interrupt the rez.

Well, except for AoE aegis, auto-block effects, protection, and a few things. Oh and anything that gets them out of stealth like, say, Taunt. And even then, what next? you downed one target, but you exhausted your entire damage, and the enemy can just res that target while controling you and then crack back and kill you.

[TeqkOneStylez.8047]

Reaper over necro any day of the week if you actually want to kill someone.

 

Miss me with that full vegan comp.

However, it could prove to be the most common considering that Necro is much easier to play than FB and Rev

[LolLookAtMyAP.8394]

Renegade/FB/HeraldorNecro

[Lighter.5631]

FB/Necro/condi herald.

 

one shot comp which requires extreme coordination is extremely easy to stop, else it would've dominated 2v2 season already.

[VyPR.3412]

Once they nerf birds, it'll be 3 Bearbows on each team.

 

Bearbow 2020

[Ubi.4136]

I suspect it will look like this:

3 mains vs 2 unlucky mains and 1 of the 3's alts who will throw or afk.
