Jamesrulez1, that's partly true: all formations proc twice to apply their complete bonus.

To come back on the topic, I'm gonna explain you in detail why MoD can be better than DLF, at least on the paper.

Full melee deck has access to the following formation:

- March of Death (MoD)

- Assault Shift (AS)

- Delta Attack (DA)

One very important note is that even though DA requires 3 melee card to be available, if it procs, it applies on ALL MELEE cards. Same for AS.

Adding numbers to be easier to read, using a 200k atk deck as example (I use a simplified version of the real calculation which is a little more complexe).

- MoD proc: around 15% bonus (5% + 10% to be exact, applied in 2 procs) = 30k bonus

- AS proc: around 13% (5% + 8%)  = 26k bonus

- DA proc: around 10% (5% + 5%) = 20k bonus

=> Potential total bonus = 76k

Now, let's take a DLF deck with 4 melee, 3 charm and 3 magic. The following formations are available:

- Dragon Lord Front (DLF)

- Delta Attack (DA, on melee only)

- Delta Force (DF, on magic only)

- Triple Kiss (TK, apply on opponent deck)

Now with numbers:

- DLF proc: around 15% bonus = 30k bonus (same as MoD)

- DA proc: around 10% bonus, only on melee = 4 cards = around 8k bonus

- DF proc: around 10% bonus, only on magic= 3 cards = around 6k bonus

- TK proc around 10% malus on opponent deck (hard to evaluate) = -20k for a similar deck

As only 3 formation can proc at most, it would be 44k bonus (a little more if we take TK into account as a bonus), but still less than a full melee deck

Hope it's clear enough, feel free to ask me if you need some clarification
