Compositions

**Compositions** are a subtle feature of RPG gaming in general and are not specific to OwO Bot. The choice of a team's composition is completely up to the individual player's style of play and preference, but may be influenced by the current meta, and the animals and weapons which are currently available to the player. Below are some commonly used compositions for the current meta. There are subtypes of the team compositions below, which use slightly different weapon configurations, but not all of the subtypes are within the current meta.

## Normal or Meta Team (Cookie Cutter/Control)

### Animal Selection Tierlist

This is just a general tierlist primarily for the  Normal Team. Any non-patreon animal not on this tierlist is considered to be useless. There is no specific order within each tier, as they are all dependent on the situation.

### Weapon Selection

 **Attacker** - -based weapons (i.e. , , ) are usually preferred over  weapons (i.e.  , , ). However, it is **extremely important** that you use  based weapons with  based pets, and  based weapons with  based pets. But make sure you keep in mind that if you don't have a  based weapon with  it is generally better to just use  based pets with  based weapons.

 **Healer** -  is usually preferred over  because Healing Staffs (which heal the ally with the lowest health) are easily countered by AoE; the 150%  heal from a Healing Staff can often be overheal, causing a waste of . Spirit Staffs, on the other hand, heal all allies a bit and applies the  buff, serving as a counter to both AoE and Poison Daggers.

 **Tank** -  is just about the best weapon to use for a tank. The 50% damage reduction along with the Taunt works well for "tanking" a great deal of damage. It is especially good against single-target teams since the taunt ensures that the weapon attacks the tank until either the  runs out or the tank dies. It isn't as effective against AoE weapons though. It is important to note what passives go with the  in a specific composition.

Common choices include:

## Double AoE Team

The  Double AoE Team composition is a dirty tactic, often considered to be a "streak breaker" rather than a "streak maker". Much of the enjoyment of using this composition comes from your opponents complaining about losing against this type of team, rather than the gratification of reaching new heights in your maximum streaks. Persistence with this composition can pay off in the long term with some average streaks (around 3k+). In the level 50+ range, 10k+ win streaks are possible. Progress with it can also be quite slow; with many preferring the rush of trying out new compositions instead of persisting with one over a longer period. As a "set and forget" team, this is the ideal composition. If you're constantly tweaking your team, and trying new things, then you probably shouldn't bother with this one.

Most of the time  Fish and  Spider are used as attackers due to their high Magical Attack and Physical Attack points respectively. The fish should hold an  Energy Staff with , , , or  passives. The spider should hold a  Great Sword with , , or  passives. A downside of this is that they don't have a lot of Health Points and Magical Resistance/Physical Resistance, meaning that they could be killed pretty easily, primarily by AoE weapons. Which is why some players choose to use animals with more health like  Lizard /  2022pridebee and  Snake. Another way good way to combat the weakness of fish and spider would be to use a  Tank (commonly called a Double Gem AoE team) with a lot of Health Points such as  LobBot,  DinoBot,  Koala, or  Owl. The high HP tank should be hold a  Defender's Aegis or a good  Vanguard's Banner with the  passive.

### AoE Heal

This team will kill meta teams with an AoE weapon, but will often lose to single-target weapons.

### AoE Shield

This team will kill meta teams with a single target weapon, but will sometimes lose or tie to AoE weapons. It may be useful in some occasions to use a  Defender's Aegis with higher  cost, so your  Tank can start attacking sooner.

### AoE Banner

The AoE Banner composition subtype is not commonly considered to be part of the current meta. Although it will win against many meta teams, it may often lose to "stupid teams". Probably the best animal for banner is a tank (preferably with the Regeneration or Thorns passive to stall out the battle) which has enough Weapon Points to trigger it at least twice since you mostly won't have survive a lot more than 4 rounds.

## Stall (aScepter) Team

 Stall Teams are a very reliable and consistent way to build up streaks. They will tie most teams and kill any weaker teams. It will only manage to do so at somewhat high levels (40+). At this point, your pets have enough  and  to survive for a long time while using their abilities. The most important part of every stall team is the  Arcane Scepter; it allows all other animals to have a constant supply of . The  Spirit Staff heals the pets in the team, keeping them alive for as long as possible. The  Defender's Aegis keeps single-target weapons focused on itself with the use of taunt. The counter to stall teams are Scythe / Axe Blitz teams or a high level double AoE team as detailed above. For more information on stall teams, check out Stall teams.

### Full Stall

This team comp is probably the most commonly used stall team. It may also be called true/traditional/pure stall. Use a  attacker such as Eagle, Snake, or Fox holding a  Defender's Aegis with the Sprout passive to increase survivability and keep the low HP pet alive. The shield holder attacks with 100% STR attacks every other turn and attacks every turn if the scepter does not replenish it's WP. A hybrid tank like  Gorilla or  Lion with  Defender's Aegis can be used for higher streaks. Use a  attacker such as  Lizard or  Deer (or a healer with high  like  Octopus or  Frog) holding a  Spirit Staff with the Magic passive to maximize heals (Energize may be used at lower levels). The pet holding the  Arcane Scepter should have balanced  and  stats (Weapon Points should be prioritized over Magical Attack) and use the Energize passive for maximum number of scepter uses.  Glitchzebra and  Squid are among the best scepter holders.

 Defender's Aegis - Sprout / Spirit Staff - Magic / Arcane Scepter - Energize

### Short Stall

A variant of the stall team that uses the same weapons but differ slightly in role of the pets (may even be considered "scepter meta"). Short stall needs only about 30-40 levels to run effectively. The scepter is held by a  attacker like  Snake or  Eagle. The  Arcane Scepter should have the Energize passive for maximizing the number of turns used. This will replenish some  to allies, and is usually just enough to reach turn 20 against a difficult opponent and tie. The scepter holder attacks with 100% STR attacks when it runs out of WP. The  Spirit Staff holder should be the same as of the full stall with the same passive (it is possible to use a meta tank, but not recommended). The  Defender's Aegis holder should be a High Health Points  Tank such as  DinoBot or  LobBot with the Regeneration or Sprout passive. Most of the time, this team is inferior to the Full Stall variation and used at lower levels, but it can be used as a way to level up your  Snake or  Eagle until you can use the better full stall variant. On the upside, the animal playing the role of tank can be much tankier than snake or eagle , so this team is a bit less vulnerable to Blitz teams. The main problem of this variation is that you can't heal as much, because you won't replenish as much .

 Arcane Scepter - Energize /  Spirit Staff - Energize / Defender's Aegis - Sprout

### Monkey Stall

Monkey stall is a variation of the short stall team, with the primary difference being the scepter holder. Monkey stall is capable of achieving really high streaks, even more viable than full stall, if done right. This stall type typically works best from 50-55+ levels. As the name suggests, the best  Arcane Scepter holder for this team is  Monkey, and in second comes  Glitchraccoon. Use the Energize passive with the scepter pet. The  Spirit Staff should be held by a burst attacker, preferably  Octopus or  Lizard with the Magic passive. The  Defender's Aegis should be held by a High HP  Tank with both  and  Resistance (Weapon Points is not a priority). The best tank pets for this role are  LobBot,  GiraffBot, and  DinoBot. Use the Sprout or Regeneration passives with the shield.

### vStaff Attacker Stall

vStaff Stall is another variant of stall, however instead of a  attacker with a shield, a vStaff is used on a high  attacker. This stall is the least common of stalls. Even so, it still will tie teams and kill lower level players at higher levels. It is not recommended to use this team if one wants to run an effective stall team.

## Blitz Team

This team utilizes high damaging weapons to kill tanks fast, hence the name.  Blitz Teams are one of the most feared teams as they are a direct counter to the most popular single AoE team (Vstaff meta), capable of delivering a defeat with 10+ levels of handicap. However, it is vulnerable to single target teams.

A word of warning: these teams are not known for consistency, you are not likely to get long streaks with them.

In any of the below team compositions,  Flame Staff may be replaced by  Poison Dagger, although it is inferior to flame staff in a blitz team. Also, it is most common to use a  Spirit Staff. This will give the attackers a boost in defense and some healing, which will protect your team from Single AoE teams; likely killing them, but will have trouble against single target teams. However, using a  , instead will have the opposite effect: Make you vulnerable to Single AoE teams, but kill single target teams.

### Blitz

Scythe Blitz uses the mortality effect on  Culling Scythe to significantly reduce healing and allows high dps weapons such as  Poison Dagger and  Flame Staff to kill the enemy tank and thus the whole team. The  Spirit Staff is preferably held by a meta healer with the Energize passive. High mag healers such as  Octopus may also be used, but will provide fewer turns of healing. High Magical Attack pets should be used to hold the  Flame Staff with the Mana Tap passive. The best flame staff holder is  2022pridebee or  Lizard. The  Culling Scythe is to be held by a High Physical Attack pet such as  Snake or  Eagle with the Strength or Critical passives. Replacing the spirit staff with a High HP tank equipped with a shield will make this team stronger against single target teams, but weaker against AoE. **Note:-** In blitz you always want to keep the Flame Staff number two spot. It is combined with the Scythe which is ideally at number 3.

 Spirit Staff - Energize / Flame Staff - Mana Tap / Culling Scythe - Strength or Critical

### Gem Shield Blitz

Gem Blitz makes use of the gem tier pets, specifically  Fish and  Spider, to maximize damage. The primary downside is that they die very easily, especially to AoE teams. Gem blitz works well for killing single target teams with ease. This team is similar in weapons to the regular blitz team specified above, except it replaces the spirit staff with a  Defender's Aegis. The  Culling Scythe is held by  Spider with the Strength or Critical passives. The  Flame Staff is held by  Fish with the Mana Tap passive. The  Defender's Aegis should be held by a High Health Points  Tank with the Regeneration passive, to maximize survivability.

 Culling Scythe - Strength or Critical / Flame Staff - Mana Tap / Defender's Aegis - Regeneration

### Banner Combinations

Banner teams use the Attack Up effect of  Vanguard's Banner to increase the overall damage of weapons such as  Flame Staff,  Bow,  Energy Staff,  Great Sword, and  Wand of Absorption. In addition, due to banner being able to bypass taunt and defense up, this will further increase overall damage to the tank. The following weapons, their order, and their passives of the most relevant banner teams (too many random ones out there) are listed below.

Fstaff Banner:

 Flame Staff - Mana Tap / Spirit Staff - Energize / Vanguard's Banner - Strength or Critical

## Disruption Team

Disruption uses the  Glacial Axe to freeze the opponent's tank from being able to taunt. This allows weapons such as  Poison Dagger to hit the attacker and healer. However, Disruption does require a bit of RNG as it is possible for your dagger to continuously hit the tank instead of the opponent's attacker or healer, which will result in a defeat or draw. It is important to note that this team is not meant to achieve high streaks whatsoever, but more to break streaks. It is best to keep this as a second team than to run it as a main.

### Disruption

This is the most common type of disruption and effectively kills AoE teams. The  Spirit Staff should be held by a meta healer or  Octopus with the Energize passive. The  Glacial Axe is held by a High Physical Attack attacker such as  Snake or  Eagle with the Energize (the Mana Tap passive may be used, but occasionally may not replenish enough WP, especially at lower levels). A High Magical Attack attacker such as  2022pridebee or  Lizard should hold the  Poison Dagger with the Mana Tap passive. There is a variation where the rest of the pets are the same, but the  Poison Dagger holder is a  Fish.

 Spirit Staff - Energize /  Glacial Axe - Energize / Poison Dagger - Mana Tap

### Gem Shield Disruption

Gem Disruption makes use of the gem tier pets, specifically  Fish and  Spider, to maximize damage. The primary downside is that they die very easily, especially to AoE teams. Gem disruption works well for killing single target teams with ease. This team is similar in weapons to the regular disruption team specified above, except it replaces the spirit staff with a  Defender's Aegis. The  Glacial Axe with  Spider and the  Poison Dagger with  Fish should both have the Mana Tap passive. The  Defender's Aegis should be held by a High Health Points  Tank with the Regeneration passive, to maximize survivability.

 Glacial Axe - Mana Tap / Poison Dagger - Mana Tap / Defender's Aegis - Regeneration

## Triple Staff Team

A  Triple Staff Team either utilizes three attack weapons or three healing weapons.
