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:

Yeah, I would not be upset at all to land the Prince. Non cleansable mana reduction plus some damage and high poison damage? Sign me up

Definitely a nightmare in Rush

Released version is severely toned down. What made him awesome was the -54% uncleansable mana gen debuff which is merely -24% now and cleansable. On top of that his poison is reduced to 1,285. His damaged is buffed to 180% which is still nothing as slow.

But if he was released as that, everyone will cry foul. This change does weaken him a lot. But at least it was nerfed before release
The poison damage is still devastating, he immediately makes rayne obsolete

better be toned down now instead of getting nerfed in the future.
his poison is pretty much the same.

he is an ok hero in my opinion

reducing the mana generation AND making it dispellable wasn’t necessary. one was enough

I through they wanted to support changes towards green

Doesn’t matter that the damage and poison is increased, they are cleansable. They reduced the mana and now it is cleansable.
All to all, the new one will not change anything, I guess. I hope I can meet the prince and build some experience.

The only good thing is that they destroy heroes before release :pray:

Happy gaming

The hero card is updated with the changes. The polls are enabled.

1285 should be 1730

And “This effect…” should be taken away.

Ok, fixed.

At 4/80 it is 1285. So it was correct.

Crappy hero imho, not worth chasing based on the released version. Overall this event is a total meh, with possible nerf for Hippo over the horizon.

I just got this guy from my 2nd free pull

Skill is called ‘royal poisoner’ not ‘royal prisoner’

Whoa, they changed him quite a bit. He still looks decent but not sure if worth a chase. Maybe a few pulls. I don’t have a legendary shared damage hero, so that would be nee

Thx, I have fixed this too.

I definitely agree that it’s amazing that they’ve started to go down the “nerf before release”-route way more. And I do agree that a nerf was appropriate. But not THAT much. He’s pretty weak now, and he wasn’t that amazing to begin with - even in rush. There’s so many better options for rush, and with all the taunting that defines the rush-scene, he would do very little.

But in the end I’d rather have them nerf the hero too much as per release like this than buffing too much or nerfing too little. So I’m very glad about this outcome. I just think that the nerf was excessive.

For me this hero feels like the modern Costumed Yunan :frowning:

The slow speed is a bummer. Ofc people will argue about rush tourney and wars, but still with the current meta I am not swayed by slow heroes easily.

Don’t worry, he’s a new hero. He will definitely get a buff soon if his statistics on the raid scene is not good

Agree that the trend is good that they nerf before release. Maybe they need to find the balance and don’t go too far. We had recently Ultrox that was nerfed too much and and now the frog.

Some of the properties should have been uncleansable. It takes for ever too fire the prince and nothing can last. Big numbers looks only impressive on paper, e.g. a lot of poison but there are too many way (and heroes) to prevent or get rid of.

So let’s hope SG continue to balance before release but not nerfing to this level.

I guess most players will try their luck for G Hippo and maybe get this one or the cat.

Happy gaming
