Alliance War Defender Suggestion (Defensive Tier List)

Alliance War needs annoying champs to increase the chance to get more kills, but do remember that you should not place one champ on many nodes, else your opponent may win because of increased diversity point. So take care of diversity if you really care about winning.

Tip: You may wonder that most of the champions listed above don’t even regenerate health, so why would you place them on regeneration nodes? Would you do a path with a regeneration node without a relevant champ? Summoner with Void, Captain America IW, AA, Dr. Voodoo etc. are usually assigned for such paths. Void and Captain America IW can even reverse the regeneration to degeneration with Petrify debuff that makes those nodes a cake walk if you put champions that regenerates. The best champions are those that shrug off. Kingpin is the best.
