ALFRIKE
Iām so surprised how there is no uproar on this hero ā¦ literally is a game over special when fires
the cubes are devastating , the mindless attacks donāt let you recover , the reduction in HP
Throw a MN/ALBY / ARIEL with this hero on roster and just devastating , does not matter that she is very slow.
apparently JF V1 was OP, I say alfrike is super OP and out of this world
Alfrike would be OP if anything other than very slow. And heās vulnerable to every mana manipulation there is.
So it becomes a priority to ensure he doesnāt fill if on defense (unless you have Merlin, Hansel, or Gretel).
The Small Giant Staff have indicated that they plan to close Beta tomorrow, and reopen it later this week with additional Season 3 content, including the first Season 3 Provinces.
I canāt express how much I want that blue wolf guy beside Kage. 
Iām excited
So, based on his 2nd skill, Ratatoskr is best used as an offensive hero?
As planned, Beta has now closed, ending Season 3 Beta 3.
Iāll update again when Beta reopens.
As the first Season 3 Provinces are expected, Iāll be making a new thread for the Provinces, and keeping this thread updated with Season 3 Heroes.
Oh I am pumped for S3 provinces, I need new map content in my game lol
Thatās where I liked Ratatoskr best.
Can also be a good flank to a blue tank though. Because Ratatoskr weakens green tiles on the current board. Richard in my experience was his best tank to flank for ā since both their attack drops are independent (one applies to the attacker, the other to the green tiles).
When will S3 start ?
We donāt know yet, but itās looking pretty feasible it could be in March. Iād be a bit surprised if itās later than April.
Thanks bro for quick reply. S2 didnāt give me any 5 star heroes from both normal and hard summon. Hope Iāll get 5 stars in S3 summon
Good luck!
The odds are sure to beā¦
checks notes
ā¦uh, well there are some cool new 3* 
Personally, I am looking forward to the S3 heros. They look really awesome. Combined with all the new heros from the updated Challenge eventsā¦the game should get interesting!
Iāll wait and collect all coins and do it at a time when good HOTM meets . Later part SG will introduce new heroes also . So I wonāt start summon when S3 starts . This time Iāll wait
S3 season will be exciting, Iām looking forward it .
So Ratotaskrās special must be to use her on offense. If +64% attack when attacking hero casts the specialā¦then offense.
You wouldnāt want to use her in your defense because of the -57% attack when defending hero casts the special.
Am I reading this correctly? 
No youāre misunderstanding.
When you use the skill on offense it provides your team with the boosted attack shields (tiles)
When the skill is used by your defense it makes your opponentās shields (tiles) have -57% attack
Edit: To specify I mean the effected shields (tiles) not all of them.
Thnxš maybe they need to work on the wording. Or maybe Iām the only one interpreting this way.
Beta has reopened, with the return of the Season 3 Heroes, as well as the introduction of the first Season 3 Provinces and gameplay.
@DaveCozy has offered to update this thread and the upcoming HOTM threads with the balance changes in this Beta, so those will come as he completes them.
In the meantime, Iāve added a new thread for the Season 3 Province & Gameplay:
Thank you for updating the information at the top @DaveCozy
