šŸ§Ŗ Early Information on the August 2019 HOTM (Miki)

You can have +40% more attack from another attack buffer. Also harpoons (when used during titan is stunned) give defense reduction. These two little facts seem to reduce the requirement for another attack buffer or defense reducer. So have some preferably fast dps+miki and you are done.

Also nobody has mentioned; Thereā€™s no miss chance when/if attack increase kicks in.

The official Empires and Puzzles Facebook Page posted an image with Mikiā€™s artwork as part of a giveaway contest. Heā€™s the top left Ice version.

Iā€™ll say it now, similar to Anzogh Iā€™m thinking SG makes the correct call and changes his speed to average for release, with a duration decrease on his silence. At average speed the silence is worse than Proteus and Hel blocking mana in most situations (assuming they change duration to 3 or less), deals no damage, and the attack increase is strong but situational.

This would make him strong, but not game breaking, and would make him useable for raids and thus a larger draw

The blue/icy colours really fits him well, the armor reminds me of the Skaal outfits from Skyrim. All in all its a nice artwork. Just hope theyā€™ll manage to balance him good so it can be more useful everywhere and not being only a titan specialist.

He is a meh hero for sure, and tarlak will still dominate in raids, and titans. Unless u are willing to throw few mana pots every titan flag.

Very disappointing hero imo, and i am so pissed he is in the month of guardians event that i am preparing to do 2x10 pullsā€¦
He dont deserve scopes i even prefer isarnia then him. All the new stuff that the target need to have more hp is BSā€¦
And slow bah, who wants slow heroes vs titans or raidsā€¦

Looks underwhelming to me. Slow combination of Ranvir/Wu Kong and Proteus/Hel/Hansel. Honestly I like to choose whatever I am doing because rarely I need to deal damage depending on heroā€™s HP and silence the enemy, and specialists do it better. Guess I will make only some pulls on Guardians of Teltoc and hope I wonā€™t get this hero.

I like the purple one the best

I like to have seshat but unfortunately my pulls failed to have her, and even the 5* hero from atlantis again and againā€¦

MIKI + ATOMOS TAG TEAM! :fire::fire::fire:
Make Miki somehow work with Atomos!

Example Combo:

Silence + Boost Atomos Mana Damage + Mana Slow

Possible Issues:
Atomos is also Barbarian so itā€™s tough on the Emblems
Atomos is also slow so both would be useless together now

Please see Fix Atomos thread

I guess I donā€™t understand all the hate for Miki. Very good replacement for those that donā€™t have Tarlak. Which Iā€™m guessing is quite a few players. Far too many people judge heroes based off how they perform on defense. Raids/wars and titans, Miki should thrive

Well I donā€™t have Ranvir but I have Wu Kong Max and not big difference between them, I donā€™t have Tarlak and in my opinion is the best card in the game and finally I save 3 token to make 3 pull and I hope to landed in my bench. Looks good

Miki is not bad, but there are some tweaks that can improve it and make it even with good HOTMs.

You see him as a strong raid hero as is?

Iā€™m not loving him for Raids and War, but in his current Beta form heā€™s exceptional on Titans ā€” arguably too much so.

But that seems to be what the game designers have in mind.

I hope he gets multi-purpose adjustments and no longer becomes a niche hero. I see that the alternative of increasing mana speed and reducing turns would make it excellent in all areas without making it OP. If he continues to slow, at least increase his HP to arrive alive and fire at least once, without the aid of mana potion.

I submitted a final round of feedback saying I would have preferred a more versatile hero, and that heā€™s verging on insanely strong for Titans based on my testing, even without Mana Pots.

That is the only reason I want him. I donā€™t have Tarlak. I canā€™t decide when to pull for him though.

Thatā€™s my issue, I have no reason to Summon in August. I think Iā€™m just going to miss out on even trying for him.

Iā€™m planning to use my Atlantis Coins in September, and my EHT in October or December.

I think Iā€™m done with using Gems until Season 3.

Yeah, I already have guardian panther, falcon, and jackal. So no guardians. I have Arielā€¦ no interest in Musashi. Khionna is good but I have a backlog of purples: panther, Kunchen, Seshetā€¦ all I think Iā€™d choose over her. Other featured hero seems to be either Mokk-Ar or Misandraā€¦ I wouldnā€™t mind Misandra, but thatā€™s itā€¦ EHTs being held until October. I also want Kingston

I think heā€™d be strong in a blue stack. The silence would be nice so long as you bring hitters alongside Him. Seems to me like Miki could help a less powerful team take down a stronger team in a war but obviously the slow mana is a draw back. Certainly not a must have hero but better than what Iā€™ve read so far here in my opinion
