Well , by my opinion Asylum patience is good also, but I use only 1 in the teams all the time(Mostly because RNG dropped same class) BUT YOU HAVE TO CHECK WHAT SORT OF ABILITIES THE UNTIS HAVE - NOT ALL THE FOOTBALL PLAYERS HAVE THE SAME ABILITIE !!! (Goes for other classes also) I beat the game with 6 Sorcerers/6 Paladins/5 Fighters/1 Cleric (I used multi class items). By my opinion You must reroll sometimes because of RNG , I rerolled and when I finished the game i had 2 times lvl 3 and I believe everybody else on lvl 2 maybe ONE was on lvl 1. Good game , not the easiest , turn based-rouge like its kinda fun.
OOH ABOUT SPELLS: I used 2 - smites / 1 - Gladiator(Sword-blue background) / 2 -I dont remember the name of this but it was like a Potion wich made enemy take more DMG.
