F-tier Lightbearers
Do not invest on  Peggy,  Fawkes,  Lucius,  Belinda,  Thane,  Oscar,  Rigby, and  Walker. The maximum investment you should put into these heroes is signature level 10 or 20, in case you have a lot of emblems left in your bag.
PS: Thane can actually be a pretty decent carry for Lightbearer tower if you get his Lvl 60 engraving. But there are better carries than him in the current LB Tower meta, so his Lvl 60 engraving is NOT a good recommendation anymore. |
