“
Who could’ve imagined that Rufus, that merry drunkard, would become one of the revered Guardians? He made a bet with Rakashi the demon, put his soul at stake, and chose a reliable method to win, by drinking his opponent down! Rufus won the bet, and the demon, confined within his shield, became his faithful friend and protector.

Rufus Pet Priority
Oliver helps Rufus regenerate energy faster, enabling him to use his skills more frequently. This can be crucial in prolonged battles where maintaining defensive capabilities is essential.
Albus provides crowd control effects that can immobilize enemies, allowing Rufus to maintain his frontline position without being overwhelmed. This synergy ensures that Satori and other high-damage heroes can operate safely behind Rufus.
Axel offers additional healing and defensive support, which is vital for keeping Rufus alive during intense battles. His healing abilities can help sustain Rufus’s health, allowing him to continue blocking damage for his team.
Biscuit’s ability to reduce enemy healing complements Rufus's role as a tank by ensuring that opponents cannot recover quickly from the damage dealt by the team. This is particularly effective against teams relying on sustain strategies.
