Maybe C3 Obakan. If you need a purple healer, Diaochan. I have her, but donât really use her that much, although I have a lot of healers. Her minions rarely live long enough for my liking. Rayne would be fun I think. I feel like growth and wither will have longevity, so a dupe wouldnât be a waste. I prefer the variety route, and I have enough roster depth that I, most likely, will not level a dupe.

Nah, Darkfeather and C3 Oba are rock solid. If you had no other purple, Acidfire is worth considering but in your case Iâd keep it unique (personally).

I have maxed one dupe 5* (Arco) after taking the second in SE.
As a general rule, a dupe needs to be special and do something that you canât get elsewhere or that brings something to the table you canât get with another hero (dupe Erlang Shen makes sense, charge together and trigger the damage, wipe out three opponents). I believe Acidfire qualifies as âdoing something specialâ and can justify the dupe.
Acidfire has a stonkingly good Wither, it blunts the enemyâs attack and makes it more vulnerable. Decently high numbers too at -225, so two in a raid will wreck the opponent.
I wish I had even one Acidfire, but if I had two, they would likely both get fed with priority over the heroes you mentioned. I donât think you would regret the others, just that you may use Acidfire^2 more often and heâll help get more raid wins.
For events with waves Growth has more impact, in PvP both Wither and Growth are exceptional/excellent.
I BELIEVE that we are early days in this type of special (impacting the base stats of cards on the battlefield).
Minions started as plain vanilla little things, gained effects, gained power and eventually became little mini-heroes.
Fiends have followed a similar course with mana types with hero level effects (EDD, huge damage, replication, etc).
Owls have just come out and they âhateâ Holy heroes, early days but expect other colors to receive similar treatment.
Goblins have wither and Growth, early heroes have a variety of combinations and levels SG is collecting data and soon weâll have this mechanic in other forms
- Smarttongue crushes attack -300 Att
- Darkfeather has a decent little buff +160 Att and Def
- Deadboot now has a chunky -300 Defense at Very Fast.
Not sure if the counters will resist the impact directly or if SG will continue to have Wither and Growth battling back and forth
My guess is a passive resist to wither/growth comes before a special with it in the text. This would be similar to the bard passives that reduce mana gain from specials and Rezz percentages.
New battle items may actually come into the game ahead of specials and passives as it would be worth $$$ to SG and theyâve been promising new battle items for a couple of years now.
