Deciding where to spend your class emblems - Tourney update 2019-Mar [Math, Analysis]

Defense

@Gryphonknight

As a very broad rule ( or a very safe guideline with resets costing gems and emblems), increasing a hero’s defense stat will have the most increase in Total Damage Output before death, followed by HP, Attack, Crit, Healing, Mana.

Defense

This also explains why color stacking works so poorly on defense. A.I. Damage is always colorless.

As we understand color stacking better it is clear that A.I. defense team heroes - which always have colorless attacks - benefit more from a defense stat emphasis in class nodes and defense stat 3*/ 4* troops since colorless attacks do not get the non linear attack bonus from color stacking.

Attacker

Heroes that gain large benefits from color stacking - Rogue Guardian Jackal, Barbarian Gormek, Sorcerer Sabina, Wizard Kiril, Paladin Sonya, Druid Gobbler, Sorcerer Skittleskull, Ranger Chao, etc. - benefit more from an attack stat emphasis in class nodes and attack stat 3*/ 4* troops since colored attacks do get the non linear attack bonus from color stacking.
