šŸ§Ŗ Early information on the March 2023 HOTM -- Gilligan [Part of The Beta Beat V55]

Nope, this is what is on the Hero cardā€¦

This hero is so bad that I have to feed him away immediately because I fear his crapness rubs off on my other heroes.

If enemy has 4 buffs on every hero, it is time to run away (or use a dispeller), not to fire such a weak heroā€¦

Iā€™ll love to use Dawa instead of him. :unamused:

Thatā€™s what i was thinkingā€¦ Slow yesā€¦ But maybe only 9 tiles needed to charge of the passive is making him faster.

Butā€¦ Still not great.

The passives are so good, but the activeā€¦Iā€™ll wait to March

First time back in Beta after a three week cruise holiday ā€¦ā€¦
And they deliver this as the proposed new HOTM fir March 2023 ā€¦.
Well itā€™s a no from me ā€¦
What where you thinking. I know the HOTM comes ā€œfreeā€ but please this is just pants as it isā€¦
In my honest opinion either ā€¦

  • up the speed to fast
  • up the damage to hit 3 at least
  • defence up for all allies against all
    You really need to go back to the drawing board with this one

I think the Wilbur share damage would be good for this one. I donā€™t love this guyā€¦ Not enough to give darts toā€¦ But i think there are possibilities.

Yep, the worth of this hero will depend heavily on strength of that passive. If enemy has enough buffs than he can reload non-stop in like 2 turns even without any tiles.

I donā€™t like two things though:

  • Seems like passive doesnā€™t work with positive stacks (Slayers, Bastet etc.) - that would make it a bit stronger;
  • Elemental defense increase is probably one of least useful buffs. Really, SGG. This is already second time in a short span after C G. Jackal that you pull this one. Same element even. Knock it off!

Also some more power would be nice.

ā€œHoly sh**ā€ is what i thought when I saw the skill in combination with the speed and itā€™s also the perfect description for this hero.

This is a clunker. Gilligan should stay stranded on an island until the Soul Exchange ship rescues him.

Iā€™ll share what was the live-stream of my thoughts reading about this hero

Gilligan! Would be funny if he had an ability that makes him super OP on Monster Island for some reason (you know, like Gilliganā€™s island?)

Ok, I have lots of Barb emblems, so that seems ok even though itā€™s not the best class

Wow sounds interesting! This could be a good hero!

Sounds like another good passive!

Oh, not great, but at least it will be a hard hitter!

Good name! Sounds devasting! Maybe hits hard but has a drawback like Lepus?

Huh. That seems weak. I guess the other parts of his skill are strong though!

Oh thatā€™s bad.

Wait did I skip over part of his special? [goes back and reads everything 1, 2, 3 more times]

Thatā€™s all he does? Wow. Terrible card ā€¦ should be fun reading the comments on it at least!

Good change would be replacing the def up part with dispel (even if only target and nearby). It would be more in line with the passive.

Wow, a slow hero that does the same damage as fast heroes nowadays? Another disappointment HOTM.
