🧪 Early Information on the March 2020 HOTM (Telluria)

Lol. This hero “only”:

• does direct damage (Guin does not)
• Creates minions for everyone (Guin does not)
• Heals all allies (Guin does)
• Puts a Mana Debuff on all enemies for 3 full turns (Guin cuts mana equivalent to 1-2 tiles…)
• Creates an elemental link (Guin does not)

Just saying but comparing to Guin, you gotta compare everything rather than just the parts that are comparable.

@CorpseTiller

what is it that happens in beta testing that indicates a hero needs to be nerfed?

Answered this on the JF thread:

@Guvnor

As for why someone is considered OP there are three main cases:

1. When beta testers struggle to find a way to counter the hero & requires extremely niche heroes or lucky boards…
2. The flip side of 1. If beta testers find that he’s too easy to win with (on your team)… Basicalky a “charge them up, fire and you win”
3. When there is no existing hero of a comparable skills & power (this is where the maths is).
