The above explains why the common tanks that you see are Guinevere, Aegir, Kunchen etc. Having a balance between offensive and defensive heroes.Having heroes that delay/nullify/reduce the opponents attacks.Having heroes that have high defensive stats.

Let us put ourselves in the shoes of an attacker and lets assume that we will always have the perfect attack team to any defense team (in terms of hero choices).Д«ut all attack strategies requires the right tiles and the right places to execute, and as an attacker, you know that you donвЂ™t start with perfect boards all the time.
