what chars did you use to defeat the beast on madness difficulty?

[eddie-8009]

well... I'm at that point in my game beast on madness!!

now, since CR Eddie's fury doesn't stop the beast from reviving like it used to (lol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbaeqLSHMf8 ), you acctually need a strong and reliable team to beat the level

so, question to all people who beat the level, what chars did you use to beat the beast? but it doesn't count if you revived!!

ps: also, feel free to check my team(eddie-8009), and recommend which chars I should use

Tailgunner Eddie, Gunner CotD, and Prisoner.

Substituted Carriage Rider sometime in the third round, as Tailgunner starts to wear down, Beast casts Invincibility, and Carriage Rider steals it away while casting his nasty negative effects. Have done it several times and no need to revive.

I used to try with Pharaoh, but the Beast just steals his Invincibility so never worked real well for me. I would imagine if you had a Wicker Dog King you could just steal it back; may be a good sub for the Prisoner

I used Soldier Eddie, a Sentinel Soulless Demon and a Pharaoh Sun Spirit to get through. Relied on Soldier's fury to deal out damage and buff my team up, whilst the soulless demon just hit as hard as he could. My Sun Spirit's Rise ability kept my team looking healthy after The Beast started bringing out the big guns. Took me a couple of attempts (and a bit of luck) before I was able to do it without the need for a revival!

I cant quite remember the 1st team to beat him, but Im pretty sure it was:

Soldier Eddie
SoL Eddie (for the heal & extend beneficial effects)
Assassin Golden Son (For immortality & the crazy damage)
PSS? This one not so sure about, but he was a big thing for me in the early days. Could also have been the Blue Allied Soldier too.

Definitely used CR Eddie's fury to deal with the beast the first time through, but since then I haven't been able to survive w/o reviving, even with my CR Eddie, AoF & Assassin Golden Son.

I had a great idea, but it didn't pan out. I wanted to use CR's "ghost" right away, hoping the Beast would steal the beneficial effect, then die permanently in 3 or 4 turns. Unfortunately, he didn't steal it until he was in his final form & almost dead (fortunately CR's fury got rid of it - and for the first time I ended up winning without reviving). Do his skills change when he resurrects? Or is Ghost not considered beneficial?

Has anyone tried using a fury/power stealing toon/ability to keep him from gaining invincibility or silencing your team?
