Challenge 2.9 under 3 minutes

[WraithBand]

Good evening Skylords,

I'm wondering if someone managed to pass under the 3 minutes limit for 2.9 challenge ? 

As a reminder :

Win a random PvE scenario in under 10 / 8 / 7 / 5 / 4 / 3 minutes on any difficulty, with all team members playing only Fire cards. Completing the challenge more quickly awards progressively more points.

I'm trying to spam strikers + eruption and suppression for towers but the best I could do is around 5min50. Is there a technique so you can do it ? I suppose It's impossible to go for T2 as 3 min is way too short right ?

Anyway if someone has tips or strategy for this I would be grateful 😉

Hey, these are some tips:

• For difficulty 1 single player is faster than multiplayer on average
• Roll for a Bandits map as it has the least amount of hp per camp out of all factions
• Strikers + Mine offers a very fast and healthy clear 
• Adapt to the map layout. You can see camp structure even through fog of war. Plan ahead, avoid triggering early waves and don't waste time with unnecessary pathing.
• If you have Towers at the second row you can leave one squad of Strikers behind to finish them while the main army moves on
• Fire Bomb does great damage to structures for the last row. Try to hit the spawner and the Tower. It can also be used if there are any birds. 
• Sacrificing your army into a Banner of Glory just at the end. It grants you extra power to finish off the last enemies with eruptions. These 3-4 seconds might make the difference in the end. 

I hope this is helpful, good luck with the challenge.
