Girls X Battle: General Team Building Guide – Battle Girl Composition
Here’s a guide on how to build teams in the RPG Android and iOS game Girls X Battle. By understanding the roles of each Battle Girls, and by following the recommended team compositions below, you should now be able to create a team according to your style or preference. 
– General Roles of Battle Girls –
Tanks – Their main objective is to take damages and stay alive for as long as possible. – They don’t make huge damages, but excellent tanks can hold the front line with control abilities like stun, and/or can also support the team with passive abilities. – Note: Front liners and Tanks are totally different, so that means, not all front liners are considered tanks.
Recommended to Upgrade
– HP, Physical Defense, Spell Resistance, HP Regeneration and Life Steal. Offensive stats are optional.
DPS (Damage Per Second or Strike)
– Your damage dealers, glass cannons or nukers. Best if they can also support the team with control, debuffs, or buff skills.
Recommended to Upgrade
– Physical Attack and Physical Crit, or Spell Power and Spell Crit. Survivability stats are optional but increase MP Regeneration.
Crowd Controls (CC)
– Debuff specialists, Battle Girls that can immobilize enemies and render them useless. – Battle Girls with Stun, Silence, Petrify, Sleep, Freeze, Hex, Exile or other similar skills. Most preferred are those that can do AoE (Area of Effect) attacks to control all enemies. – For better timing, it’s best that you find one that can control enemies using her Ultimate Skill. – Note: All control battle girls are also considered as DPS but their main purpose on your team is to CC.
Recommended to Upgrade
– Same with Tank section above for front liners. – Same with DPS section above for mid or rear Battle Girls.
Support
– Mainly Healers with some control and/or support abilities. – Battle Girls that can actively or passively buff your team’s stats, and/or reduce (“debuff”) enemies’ stats.
Recommended to Upgrade
– Same with DPS section above.
– General Team Building Guide –
Team Building Guide: Recommended – Here’s some most commonly used team formats, even Arena top ranked players use them.
General Format: 1 Tank, 2 DPS, 1 Control, and 1 Support
– Example #1: Front: 1 Tank, Middle: 1 DPS and 1 Control, Rear: 1 DPS and 1 Support
– Here’s the most commonly used team composition. You can do your own too, just follow the general format above.
– Example #2: Front: 1 Tank and 1 DPS, Middle: 1 DPS and 1 Control, Back: 1 Support
– Example #3: Front: 1 Tank and 1 DPS, Middle: 1 Control, Back: 1 DPS and 1 Support – Now, here you’ll see that I used 2 front liners, but it’s ok because 1 of them is a DPS type.
3 DPS Format: 1 Tank, 3 DPS, and 1 Control
– If you want to use 3 DPS, it’s ok as long that you have 1 Control to cover your team.
– Example #1: Front: 1 Tank, Middle: 1 DPS and 1 Control, Back: 2 DPS
– Example #2: | Front: 1 Tank and 1 DPS | Middle: 1 DPS and 1 Control | Back: 1 DPS
Team Building Guide: Not Recommended
Full DPS Format: 1 Tank, 4 DPS or using 5 DPS
– Also known as glass cannon build, yeah they can do lots of damage, but the problem is, if your opponent has a nice Control, you’re team’s dead. Chances are, you won’t even be able to cast most of your Ultimate Skills.
Dual Tank Format: 2 or More Tanks
– The problem here is, your Team’s DPS output will weaken, and most of the time you’ll even lose your 1st or 2 tanks fast, before you can take down your enemy’s tank. How? One reason is because AOE attacks are area based, and melee attacks have splash damages, so those 2 tanks will always take damage at the same time. – There are some exceptions here though, but I only suggest this for experienced players.
Stacking 3 or More Under One Position
– Same as above, do not stack 3 or more front liners because they will suffer from AOE attacks and DPS’ melee splash attacks. – Mid position is a little risky but still doable with 3. Rear area should be ok to have 3 but not 4.
Is It OK to Use 2 Control or 2 Support? – Yes, as long that your team has a good synergy, and make sure that their control abilities will not overlap, which will make the other one useless.
When Is It OK to Use 2 Tanks?
– Once your Battle Girls are around Lvl 85+, tanks will become harder to beat, thus making battles much longer than usual. They actually call the 2nd tank as “Off-Tank”, but still requires a nice team synergy though. – Other players also consider using Dual Tanks only if they don’t have a Control Battle Girl present for their team, especially for PVP Arena.
Are Healer Teams Viable?
– Possible but only at higher levels (around Lvl 85+), and are used for Arena defense only. Their main goal is to win by slowly defeating the attacking team, or via time limits.
– Example Basic Teams with Common BGs –
Physical Based Team (Must Be At Least Purple) – Iron Fist, Smartie, Gambler, Tenesse, and Pandaria – Potential: Purple until around Lvl 70. Replace Gambler above Lvl 73 with better DPS.
Magic Based Team (Must Be At Least Blue+2)
– Wildtress/Leona, Blowie, Lily/Psychic (or similar control), Elvis, and Angel – Elvis and Angel can be replaced with other Support BGs you might like to try. – Blowie’s DPS might not be ideal for PvP after Purple+, replace if needed. Blowie and this team is still excellent for PvE though, and will come back and dominate PVP at Lvl 85+
Champion Mode Team
– Succuba, Blowie, Lily/Psychic (or similar control), Elvis, and Angel – Elvis and Angel can be replaced with other Support BGs you might like to try. – Potential: From early game to end game.
