Tayrel or Deacon?
Hi all, new player here.
So I'm about 3 weeks in and got lucky during the last 10x shard pull. I got both Deacon Armstrong AND Tayrel! Add a Skytouched Shaman in there and I couldn't be happier.
I'm getting ready to rank up my next 6-star (with Kael as my first) and I'm facing a tough decision. I have DEF debuff from a ton of sources, Deacon, Tayrel, Warmaiden (almost fully booked), Dagger, etc... but for my position in the early game I'm not sure what I really need first. I got all excited and spent my epic books on Deacon because he's been a game-changer for my arena team, but now I'm wondering if Tayrel is the "smarter" choice because he shines in so many areas of the game. Plus I'm worried that booking him out will be a problem.
I know Tayrel is an OG god-tier epic, but I haven't been able to find anything on him recently compared to all the new additions, and I find him kinda boring compared to Deacon's possibilities.
So what do you experienced folks think? 6-star an almost booked Deacon, or go with an un-booked Tayrel and build him up? And will there ever be a reason to have them both on the same team with their overlapping abilities?
