This is true. Additionally, we just got W3K heroes, with antibuff fiends and buff stealing minions. Both Dark, apparently :smiley:

Many many will chase Kara yah.

  1. Complete 5* taunt collection
  2. Need better yellow for defence and attack

It will be Tell all over again unless Kara gets nerfed in beta.

Once the 2022 family bonus is applied by next year, Kara can buff up to 44% attack with another 2022 hotm. So she’s gonna get better by 2023

I think the reason I like xman beside her is most will be going heavy purple to kill with tiles due to +74% SS Def. So xman’s tile mana reduction could cause lots of issues

Yeah buffs are very manageable right now, which is why I think they’re comfortable in releasing a taunt hotm by this year

Yup. That occured to me. A matter of time.

Oh no her E-link’s defence! @PlayForFun is it really defence? I thought this batch of hotms buff attack?

Pair with another 2022 HOTM whose El is +10% attack

Feb or April and maybe possibly June and then August

Yes, it is defense. I have checked, when I have adjusted the element in it.

Seems SGG is staggering the EL

Instead of a straight forward 3 months in a row …,

It’s alternate months now.

Feb Iris Attack
Mar Zagrog Defence
Apr Silvaria Attack
May Kara Defence
Jun ?? Attack
Jul ?? Defence

Start new cycle

It has to be from her naturally, if not then the attack up means nothing

Think people should also focus on her health, which seems quite low for a taunt hero. I think this is a good thing though given how well he/she deals with her own defense stat.

The +34% attack up will stack with EL +10% attack up in 2023, when Kara is paired with another 2022 HOTM.

But viscaro from january also has attack buff on EL… Quite confusing

Good point. But then DD doesn’t work on her. Plus defence against SS. That’s 2 layers of “protection”.

Most will LB Kara boosting her HP.

What I mean is she cannot buff 44% attack by herself using another 2022 hotm she needs either viscaro or iris. Would prefer if she could do both the attack buffs herself

Basically the fourth good holy in a row, while green and red HotMs are nothing but disappointing. Guess someone wants to get rid of purple tanks

Oh yah I forgot about Viscaro.

January = purple = attack (1A)
Feb = blue = attack (2A)
March = Zagrog = Defence (1D)
April = green = attack (3A)
May = yellow = Defence (2D)
June = purple = Defence ? (3D)
July = blue = defence (4D) ?
August = red = attack (4A) ?
Sept = green = defence (5D) ?
Oct = yellow = attack (5A) ?

Assuming that SGG sticks with that 5 element cycle per EL

She is a HOTM. “Lower grade”?

Maybe that’s how SGG is trying to prevent another Tell episode.
