He really doesnt seem that bad… why are the votes not favoring him?

Can someone share their feedback on fielding him for wars?

@The_Seeker I saw on someother threads that you were using him last year. How is he treating you these days? Still worth it?

[The_Seeker]

He is not bad at all, especially with these new hard hitters, being a fast counter-attacker, while his Rogue talent helps him survive. However, I haven’t been using him so much lately because I have Xnolphod that I use as tank, plus with all these new Dark tanks, I don’t use so many Dark teams on offense.

And probably it also depends where you’re using him. In top 100 alliances will be less useful than let’s say in top 400-500. I still use him from time to time in raids and when I lose it’s not because of him usually.

[TTT]

Understood! Thanks for the feedback! I am not in any of the top 500 alliances so I am sure he would be of good use to me.

[The_Seeker]

Then he will be very useful for sure. Before Xno, one year ago, in a top 500 alliance he was managing to eat on average 3-5 flags per war.

[ANIL]

many heroes are now overpowered. this costume was poor. The attack rate and reflectivity need to be increased.
