How strong/good are warrior's Rush and Spinning Blade

[Tanaka Futaba]

Ok, so this happens to me quite a few times. Right after I get either warrior's Rush or Spinning Blade, I tried to use it in the busiest area that is full of opponents. For spinning blade, thinking I'm going to whack all of them at the same time, I run into the middle of the battle and start spinning. But alas, I died. So I tried Rush, toward the opponents in the narrow path, hit them and again, I died. Ugh... I thought (yay) I got this skill and I'm gonna win this war, but why I keep dying? When I spin/rush, I am defend less, aren't I? I know I died from physical attack and not mage's magic/trap. Or am I use this skill wrongly or at the wrong time? Any tips?

Spinning Blade is a decent skill and is especially effective in areas that are very narrow. However, you are not invincible while performing it, so you're open to all sorts of attacks. You may need to level up your weapons and armor a bit more before that skill can actually become effective.

The Warrior's best skill is definitely Smash because the majority of the maps in the game have cliffs that will instantly kill anyone that falls off and Smash is great for that. Speaking of cliffs, one thing that I absolutely loved to do in Happy Wars was make a Wind Trap (as a Mage) in the middle of a bridge and lure enemies across it and witness their fate. I've even acquired quintuple kills from doing that.
