Best Clan combo for Covenant 25?

[luisedgm]

Finally made it to 25, but the last few runs past cov 20 have been quite frustrating, which clan combo you guys think could have the more reliable cov 25 win?

Stygian/Hellhorned was my first Cov 25 win. Stygian is a strong faction overall, spell weakness scales really well, especially with powerful faction spells like bramble lash, battering ram, and so forth. Sap is one of the best defensive options in the game as well.

Inferno with spell weakness is wonderful,

After 3 hours trying Hellhorn/Awoken I gave up and went with the Stygian/Awoken...
First try easy win... I stacked over 800 frost on the seraph and got the kill on the bottom lane.

Nice credits scene!

Odd, they're probably one of my most consistent combos outside of stygian (main) combos for cov 25.

there reasons i find Hellhorned main with Awoken Allies consistent.

-your starter deck only needs sharpen for your Wrathful horned breaker to basically solo tank the whole run.

-you only need DPS units behind your champion tank and maybe some units to cleen up on the level above. (perhaps offtank or daze artifact for top floor).

-there are many units within the 2 clans to create win conditions, Large stone/Major refraction + animus of will, multi-strike demons, adaptive mutation hollows, channel song/volatile/sketch consumer of crowns. etc etc

-both ascend and decend spells let you ignore capacity

-regen, armor and spikes have crazy synergys

It seems anything with Awoken has potential for broken strats. Would be consistent with the steam achievement standing at a glorious 0.8%. Stygian have a clear strategy vastly used too, but it can be harder to actually reach the end, some fights are tricky in between. Hellhorn have a technical hero that can be a powerhouse, but same observation as made for Stygian. Anything can work with a creativity and wits, but it still seems Awoken have less early loss, the time to build something working. Umbra is powerfull too, lifesteal = win most of the time, but it's much more improvisation fiesta, with morsels. Wax run can fall down ultrafast if one goes for burnout hero and has nothing to rely on him (Lady or spells to get him where and when you want), but the harvest hero can be a mountain (morsels or imps ^^). Add to that, there are weaknesses to RNG; For exemple, lots of Hellhorn strong hitters have low hp, sweep=death. Basically you have to take many things into account starting a run. What could be said is Awoken is more... merciful ?

Would you believe me if i said i couldn't find a single Sharpen in like 10 matches?
Then i started doing Cov 1 matches to master all cards and now i see them all the time.

yeah RNG is RNG, but on average it only takes a few tries to get spikes.

I abandon runs that have crappy starter cards, they don't have to be perfect but you don't want more dead cards to get rid of on cov 25.
