Best HotM Group Polling/Survey

[King_Kyree77]

With the introduction of Neith to the game there are now SIX complete sets of HotM. These polls are designed to see which heroes from each set the community values the most. As I wrote each set, I realized something that I won’t bring up until I get y’alls opinions via votes, because my realization stems from personal bias and I don’t want it to change anyone’s votes.

Anyway, on to the sets:

Set ONE:
Hel
Athena
Ares
Mushashi
Alberich

Set TWO:
Thoth-Amun
Perseus
Natalya
Zeline
Delilah

Set THREE:
Aeron
Alasie
Gravemaker
Gregorian
Drake Fong

Set FOUR:
Khiona
Aegir
Zimkithia
Evelyn
Onatel

Set FIVE:
Kunchen
Frida
Anzogh
Margaret
Ranvir

Set SIX:
Seshat
Miki
Grazul
Kingston
Neith

That’s it folks, good night!

[SWEG]

I just didn’t vote which set to nerf as I don’t think any of them should be nerfed.

[Olmor]

Last question was easy, since I have none of the 2nd set, but at least one of all the others.

[JonahTheBard]

Really interesting and well designed set of questions @King_Kyree77

Are you going to produce some kind of analysis or conclusion?

[Rduke77]

Great questions…The set 3 answers are going to be targeted toward Gravemaker. I hate that guy!

[King_Kyree77]

I’m going to leave this up and do another polling on which heroes from which set of HotM we collectively find to be the strongest/weakest. @JonahTheBard

[NatzvV606]

Any update, including 2021? Any HOTM weak and obsolete now?

[King_Kyree77]

I kinda fell out of love with this kind of stuff, but feel free to take up the mantel.

[Dr-Zoidberg]

Why everyone is so terrified of Grave I always found amusing. As per ANY card, he is easily beaten, with the right heros. Even without the right heros, a half decent/good board, played well, puts him down.

“Oh no! He’s very fast!”…and? Cleansers. Job done.

In any given meta there are premium cards, but that doesn’t make them scary.

[Didnt-Get-A-Massage]

Gravemaker is the old boogeyman. His costume will come out and there will be 500 page threads about nerfing him lol

[Gorann]

At last! Somebody not totally overwhelmed by Gravemaker. I’m no top player, but I never found him that challenging and used to wonder what I was missing. He looks cool, he’s still decent after all this time, but he’s not amazing/terrifying/unbeatable. The GTV meta gave him a brief revival at the top (I did find that extremely challenging!), but it was a lot more about the synergy than about the old monster himself. Once the other two were brought down a peg or three he went back to his natural level, which to be fair is still good given his age. The game has moved on a long way in the last couple of years.

Would I max him if he popped out of my HA10 this week? Yes, but he wouldn’t be first in the queue.
