Showcase one of teams named by Red Hook. This video shows 5 win matches.

Cutthroats is a ,,damage-stress" team, here are roles of characters:

1st: Hellion (accuracy trinket + damage trinket) - damage dealer
2nd: Bounty hunter (Grappling Mits + accuracy trinket) - deathblow dealer
3rd: Grave robber (dodge trinket + stress trinket) - stress dealer
4th: Highwayman (damage trinkets) - damage dealer

PROS:
1) Mark synergy (Bounty hunter + Grave robber / Highwayman)
2) Great damage output
3) Great stress output
4) Great DoT output
5) 2 disruptors
6) 4 deathblowers

CONS:
1) Marks are a menace
2) Stuns are a menace
3) Stress is a menace
4) DoT is a menace
5) Disruption is a menace
6) Low healing potential

Cutthroats is a damage team, that combines also stress and DoT. All characters are deathblowers, next you have 2 disruptors and a mark synergy, but only one self-healer. This team is weak against every possible team, no matter on player’s rank.

I tried to play a few strategies, like „double finishers“, „mix damage + DoT“, „mark team“ and „full stress“. I tried both variantions of Hellion (damager / stresser), it’s better to stick with damage variantion. And also Grave robber (pure damage / DoT stresser), both variantions are actually good. And lastly Highwayman (bandit / gunslinger), bandit version is MUST HAVE.

My advice: Firstly open the riposte with Highwayman, next use Bounty hunter for disruption OR use skill „Caltrops“, if you have it. Then Hellion for applying some DoT and lastly Grave robber for dealing damage.

Long time agon I played a very similiar team to this [The Wolf Pack] and it was disaster. And this team is the same disaster as the first mentioned. Nice, that all your characters are deathblowers, but that doesn’t mean, you can make some pressure. No healings (only Hellion), not great mark synergy and what’s really bad, you can’t buff the team with accuracy - you will miss often than usual. I lost… many times, no matter if it was novice, veteran or darkest player. Everyone played only based teams or “Flagellant-Crusader” combo, some novices had RNGsus on their side. This was painful. That similiar team to this [The Wolf Pack] have a bad rate by me, but this team is much worse, why? Positions of Grave robber and Highwayman (it’s better to have Highwayman on 3rd position from the start, because of moving forward (Duelist advance) and then stress skills, than have him in the backline).

Playing this was like cutting some meat with baseball bat.
