More Insights & Reading

I highly recommend reading these three threads for more information and context on summoning odds:

If you’ve read them a million times before, you may consider reading them again before deciding on your budget for summoning. A little time spent deciding on how much money you want to risk on summoning goes a long way to avoiding disappointment, frustration, and regret later. :slight_smile:

Looks interesting on paper and at first sight this guy was my fav but at these odds and not featured … slim chances with only 34 saved EHT…

Speaking of which, I got lucky and pulled him with my only 3 EHT :rofl: He reminds me of Archie (hit 250% to all at fast) but blended with Sobek’s bypass. I do have Sha Wujing next in line though so don’t think he gets any attention right now.

No, he is featured. At first he looks quite comically drawn and I dislike such artworks. But the more I look at it, the more he actually looked really good. That facial expression really made him stand out and gave him this unique personality. Easily my favourite out of the three newcomers

How do you think he compares to Archie? His better stats means he’ll cause more damage but Archie’s buff blocker–with consequential damage-- seems more useful than his cleanse blocking without damage.

I don’t understand why his is a status effect and not just an effect to apply to all existing ailments though. It’s just an extra annoyance to time these ailments back to back

Lucky to pull this guy on my 2nd EHT. He will pair well with my ailments team together with Matilda.

Archie is still better utility wise. Edwin I find is used to combo with DOT casters on offence. A regular ailment being cleansed is like whatever, not a big deal anyways. But DOTs are more important to not be cleansed. He’d be great paired with lady locke, even though I prefer him to just cast that effect to existing ailments and not have it be an additional effect
Although I do like him as a nice fast counter against priority cleanse enemies. Him and archie can block heroes like lidenbrock and furdinand. And Furdinand can finally get a taste of some buff inhibition :smiling_imp:

That’s a good question, I do think Archie is probably a tad better just cause his utility is slightly more useful (I love El Nadahha but he affects all heroes). But it’s hard to tell without testing him, and maybe his bypassing counterattack will give him the edge :thinking:

I am pretty stunned. I had only 2 EHTs and usually pull not expecting anything. Edwin came with the 1st EHT and sounds pretty good

I hate what they’ve done to the look of the Morlovia characters. They used to present as really cool.
