the only thing i can add to everything that has been said here is that having a split defense team versus a solid defense team gives benefits and drawbacks just like the attackers and defenders counting on the enemy having a solid team for their "reduces xx attack/defense" to really work well and while the idea of having 2 cards that reduce say phantom attack on your defense team geared at trapping the enemy that will actually be counter productive if they have multiple cards that boost phantom attack because your 2 that proc'd to lower them would just negate 2 of theirs that proc'd to raise them placing them right back where they started + the leader bonus still giving them the edge and wasting 2 of both sides skills it is much more advantageous to build a solid defense team that would strictly increase your own defense/attack so that every skill that is used boosts yourself if at all possible (where it's not i completely understand taking a different method) but that will maximize your overall gain so you don't get trapped aswell =]
