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

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

1st: Man at arms (Spiked shield + accuracy trinket) - guardian
2nd: Jester (dodge trinket + damage trinket) - deathblow dealer
3rd: Grave robber (dodge trinket + stress trinket) - stress dealer
4th: Arbalest (healing trinket + damage trinket) - healer

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

CONS:
1) Stress is a menace
2) DoT is a menace
3) Disruption is a menace
4) Low healing potential

Theory of relativity is an odd damage team, that combines also stress and DoT. You have 3 deathblowers (if we count Arbalest’s „Sniper shot“ on marked character), 2 disruptors and a mark synergy. This team is vulnerable against stress and DoT teams.

I tried to play a few strategies, like „the finishers“, „mix damage + DoT“, „mark team“ and „mix damage + stress“. I tried both variantions of Grave robber (pure damage / DoT stresser), both variantions are actually good. For Man at arms (damager / stresser), you must have him as DAMAGER. I really tried to play „full stress“ strategy (all characters with stress trinkets, Arbalest with „Suppressing fire“, instead of „Sniper shot“), but this tactic is useless.

My advice: Firstly open the riposte with Man at arms, next use Jester or Grave robber for dealing damage. Lastly Arbalest, use her as healer. No matter on opponent’s team, DEFEND HER at all costs! If you lose her, you lose the match.

Horrible. Team. Nice, that you have 3 deathblowers and mark synergy, but it’s worthless. More worthless is any tactic with „stress“ output, you don’t have great stressers. What’s much worse, you must rely on Arbalest’s healing skill. If you lose her, you lose the match. Like me, I tried to play my usual strategies and even that was too bad. I lost 2x against darkest players with a decent DoT teams, 2x against novice players with unusual teams, and lastly I lost against DoT Bot. You can’t make a good pressure to the opponent, healing is really bad and mark synergy… meh. I would gladly give them the lowest rating, BUT you can beat even harder opponents. Still, this is trash and I don’t recommend it.

Rating: 2/5
