Look, let's be honest—the Siege Battle meta in Seven Knights Re:BIRTH (hereafter SKRB) has been completely turned upside down following the arrival of Awakened Eileen. Players are finally benching 'Seonran' in favour of Awakened Eileen, and word on the street is that she is now making waves in the Crusade Expedition as well. KookminTree has neatly rounded up how this dramatic shake-up in team compositions has sent shockwaves through the Crusade Expedition rankings.

The massive leaps made by 'Damage Amplification' and 'Heritage'

※ Siege Battle data is based on the top 30 by day, while Crusade Expedition data covers the top 20.

Some guilds have shown an absurd growth rate in the Siege Battle department. Take 'Damage Amplification', for instance, which first appeared out of nowhere at 19th place in last week's tally. In just one single week, the guild rocketed all the way up to 4th place. 'Sena Business Club' is hot on their heels, while 'ENesis', 'Molding', and 'MiunUriSaekKi' have also managed to sneak into the top 20. With these ambitious up-and-comers throwing their weight around, most of the legacy veteran guilds have unsurprisingly slipped down the ladder.

The final results of the Crusade Expedition also featured a massive underdog story, much like Damage Amplification. 'Heritage' climbed a whopping 11 steps to comfortably nestle into 7th place. Meanwhile, 'Ramming Head Office' claimed 2nd, and 'Provocation' took 3rd. 'Full Moon', which sat comfortably at 2nd in the previous tally, unfortunately stalled out at 4th. On top of that, 'MagicAcademy'—a frequent face in the interim tallies—finally cracked the final top 20. Other notable names carving their mark include 'Shabondy', 'Panda', 'Yudong', and 'Runaway Rudi'. Best of luck to all of them in keeping the momentum going.

'MEGAMINE' manages to hold onto the top 10 for three consecutive weeks

Here are the individual score rankings for SKRB in the fourth week of September. MEGAMINE, a top player from the 'Yeopha' guild, has successfully kept a spot in the individual top 10 for three consecutive weeks. Though the ranking slipped slightly from 6th to 8th, the achievement stands out all the more given that MEGAMINE is the sole remaining representative from a different guild amidst a sea of 'Bungbungdan' players.

Cheoring from the 'Ringdan' guild, who previously sat at 10th, wrapped up this tally down at 18th. While MEGAMINE keeps pushing the score higher, rival competitors are aggressively breaking their own personal bests as well, making the next tally an absolute thriller to anticipate.

Week 4 of September daily Siege Battle results

These are the daily SKRB Siege Battle results for the fourth week of September. Scores from Monday to Wednesday took a continuous tumble. Conversely, scores from Thursday to Sunday are firmly back on an upward trajectory. As will be explained shortly below, this is likely because the meta shifted the moment Awakened Eileen dropped on Thursday, leading numerous players to smash their previous high scores. While Thursday saw somewhat modest growth, the Friday-through-Sunday battles bounced right back or recorded eye-watering score spikes. We will just have to keep an eye on Monday-through-Wednesday scores in the next tally.

This week's Siege Battle pick

Before Awakened Eileen showed up, Thursday's Siege Battle composition relied heavily on 'Biscuit - Dwaeo - Seonran - Ryan - Rachel'. Players hit staggering high scores by fully exploiting Seonran's absurd kit. However, following the debut of Awakened Eileen this past Thursday, many high-ranking players were spotted swapping Seonran out for the newcomer. The core debuff of Awakened Eileen revolves around a stackable 'Defense Reduction'. It scales up to 4 stacks, and best of all, it is a permanent passive debuff. This allows players to tear through targets with up to a 32% defense reduction.

On top of that, the first skill of Awakened Eileen is a 3-target attack, meaning the damage lands in full without any multi-target penalty—a proper little bonus. Instead of Seonran, the character grants all allies a handy '25% physical attack boost', nicely supporting the team's overall DPS output. Just a quick heads-up: the second skill, 'Cheongcheonbyeokryeok Jin', hits 5 targets so the damage per hit is reduced, meaning you will want to deploy it with a bit of tactical caution.
