New Strategy Help (in General)

In the future, when my NCB ends in mid-april, i plan on a new NCB with a new strategy. In my head, there are three variations.
1) First Minion: Evasion Tank Equips: BG, EB, ELS, SoD, AoF, etc.
Second Minion: AMF with ToE or RoBF
2) Same second minion but no evasion tank instead, with an Archery Tank equipping ELB and DB's.
3) UC with UC gear replacing the Tank
Although i want suggestions on any of these strategies, i would like to hear any other two or three minion strats with a 6 mil budget. Even if it includes mages, i am fine with, but best to hear strats with a tank in it since i have BG's, ELB's, ELS's, and HG's on me right now. Thanks a lot again, fellow CB players. :))

I like option 1 because it's different and it could be effective. However, if you use it with a ToE (my favorite choice), you better train some VA as well on minion 2 in order to counter GA.

I did a lot with UC minions in the past, but evasion tank does the same thing, only better in my opinion. More damage. My last three teams had an evasion tank on them!

That's the sad part about UC tank. It's the only strategy option that is almost always inferior to another similar strategy. Buff please :).

Agreed!

I'm sure Jiggy would appreciate the UC buff as well!

"That's the sad part about UC tank. It's the only strategy option that is almost always inferior to another similar strategy. Buff please :)."

The thing with UC is that it is the equivalent of using a free weapon. So I do not expect any buffs any time soon.

However, I do agree that the HG Junction to the Jiggy needs to be fixed.
