Margaret
Wuhu Margaret finally getting a buff! Not the best one still certainly not an amazing here but any buff is better than non. Something more creative would have been niceā¦
Gobbler
This is confusing at first. I get the intention to let him survive to actually eat minions. Maybe buff the damage off his special a bit.

Getting a buff again. Not to bad especially considering he could get a costume in the next wave.
That imagery defintiely has nothing to do with the proboscis!
I am very against this Gobbler adjustment thou.
Gobblerās abilities is meant as an attack type, wherein u bring him to specific heroes tio ward off minions. A defence buff will still not have him seated on the defence team no?
Personally I prefered if they increased the defence but just left the attack alone. Maybe take the HP and give it to the def and let him continue to attack powerfully?
Also, Where is my Agwee with Water damage? HMMMMM?
Edit: Iām still waiting for my double polling by the Mods
Very frustrating when itās her and a healer left standing in a war team and specials only prolong the suffering. At least now you have a chance at some damage other than tiles.
Lol! Not really, I had the honor to read words from many outstanding people, some of them donāt play anymore but I remember each. I watched almost everyday the awesome mods struggling with the community and the game itself, like being between the hammer and the nail.
Iām impressed and surprised by this wave of hero balancing, but I can proudly say that being here it wasnāt wasted time.
And, by the way: Yes, now I have Iron Maidenās āWasted Yearsā in may head ^^
Problem with Gobbler was that vast majority of the minion creating heroes are 5 stars, and with his pathetic survivability he barely ever survived enough to fire in these battles after minions are created. Now he seems to have chance. And I donāt think Gobbler should be an āattackerā, that is have damaging special. I think his role is solely to a) remove minions b) heal the team a bit. Some damage is just extra. I think his stats match that purpose now better.
I know, right? Thatās why I hope to get more of these at some point. There are plenty of unloved heroes that could use some love. On the other hand, canāt buff/balance 50 heroes at once.
I really like the Margaret buff. Quite a bit more than expected to be honest. No need to buff her further. She was a D hero before and seems like a good B now. Although my maxed Margaret would benefit if she were buffed even more, I think itās enough. Would not be fair making her a top notch hero.
Gormekās change seems not the best. Although heās THE red defence debuffer against green titans until people draw Wilbur, heās also the only from the pulverizer trio who is a good tank (Gold arena and maybe low Platinum). However, it would be a really nice move if his costume had the original stats combined with C. Tiburtusā def down to all. Then C. Gormek would be a great tank and normal Gormek a better titan hero.
Overall many really good and necessary adaptions and balances (some in my opinion a bit too small or big but you canāt please everyone). Will definitely change the game for the better and make niche heroes quite a bit more useful
the balance changes go hand in hand. Youāll notice that things like stat rebalanced end up with a pretty similar overall stat total. So you wonāt get one without losing something from the other.
In hindsight I probably should have had a āunnecessaryā option for some of those
Iām really glad they reduced Gobblerās attack by 96 points. He was way too over powered, which is why we see him all the time and everyone uses himā¦
OKIE that definitely makes sense if we are looking at Gooby as the (feeble) counter to Telluria.
I still prefer more attack, but I definitely see where youāre coming from
The only difference is in the stats, the speed and the counterattack on selfā¦
Heroes like Horghall at least are really useful in rush attack battle but Obakan does not shine in any game aspect. Heās currently the worst S1 5* hero, imho.
Buddy (Frigg could find a way here for those that donāt have him), Evelyn (Almur will be a solid alternative too) and Margaret have the potential to be a pretty dangerous 3 stack now. Especially for events/tourneys.
