Least favorite hero to face in raids and why?

Who is your least favorite hero to face in a raid and why? Mine is freya, she seems to fire all the time, her animation is annoying and time consuming, and it seems like before I know it there a more birds flying around then Tippy Hedren can shake a stick at!

Black ā€œJust a Flesh Wound!ā€ Knight. Gah!!! Have to make sure I bring a debuffer with me.

in a war context, iā€™ve come to embrace the fact my alliance counts on me to handle some of the toughest targets, so i donā€™t mind facing heroes like Lady of the Lake, Elizabeth, Hannah, Xnolphod, etc., even in Rush.

however, what will never change is how annoying Frigg and Morel are, especially Frigg. that SG ever released fast, hit-all defense down heroes is mind-numbing.*

*no, iā€™m not arguing for them to be nerfed. they were released as they were, so we just have to deal with it, but everyone could see from a mile away that they were going to be absurd heroes. not sure what will replace the fast, hit-all meta, and we may be here for a long time.

Maybe it seems obvious, but basically heroes that will complicate recovery from subpar boards. Dodgers (Hanitra, Kadilen, Inari), Morel, Frigg, Odin and Hannah. These heroes allow just a few moves and if by then you donā€™t have your 7-9 tiles for your counter-measures or a kill-combo, itā€™s a hard time turning the tides.

C. Kadilen as sheā€™s forever dodging everything at least 9/10.
Sif for evading way more often that she should.
Alfrike during anything Rush. So often casting cubes to 4 or 5 different heroes rendering them useless.

Lady of the Lake - her little swords keep absorbing my heroes mana, thus preventing the firing of their specials.

Team containing multiple heroes with resurrecting powers: Mother North, Heimdall and Alby.

Alexandira. She always seems to have blues ready for her to go when her fast special goes off. And I swear Iā€™ve seen her revive a few times too (and no, she wasnā€™t with the revivers).
Next Iā€™d say Elizabeth.

Director Zuri and Rafaelle, often times they just make the fights so much longer, itā€™s annoying if you know youā€™ve won but have to deal with them for ages.

Hannah, mostly because I am endlessly bored of facing a Morel/Elizabeth/Hannah (+ usually Frigg and Odin or Prof) defense in a way I have never been sick of another meta in this game. With her initial mana boost Hannah is usually the first one to go off and ruin the entire raid even with yellows stacked so I hate facing her most of all.

A freaking C Kadilen, I hate it. The RNG in tiles to win the speed game, then RNG in dispells and other specials in case you lost it. So annoying. Knowing itā€™s below 50%, yet it seems to happen 3 out of 4 times. The only hero that may make me reroll only because I donā€™t want to be frustrated.

Bera - Pop - minion - poison and repeat god know how many times. I hate facing her more than Elizabeth.

I join the cKadilen hater crowd. Now Hanitra is appearing, too, sometimes, and is just as annoying as cKad.

Fortunately, I pulled Hanitra. At least I will soon have a chance to annoy everybody else back.

I hate Krampus. Iā€™m doing better since i read that best way to beat him is a dispeller + def downā€¦ But my heroes with those special are only weak 4* and most of the time one of them got killed before they can fire their special. :frowning: I also hate all heroes with minons special, as I have no hero that kill minons. :frowning:

C. Kadilen and C. Krampus are very tough to fight. Especially in the Reverse formation.

MOTHER NORTH

If you donā€™t target her first, you get to experience the awful, horrible lie of her ā€œ50%ā€ res chance

And legend has it that if anyone who does successfully target MN first discovers that MNā€™s future self may travel back in time to res her, and then even continue to travel back in time and retroactively res fallen allies in previous raids, changing past raid victories into defeats.

Of course, such legends are only whispered rumors because, if true, it would become impossible to verify because the retconned raid losses would have always been losses.

I hate dodge heroes and defense down the most, so usual stuff you get while raiding nowadays
Plus i am always having problems with Beraā€¦ Her minions are like wall, and she just keeps making more :confused:

C. Kadilen.

Now, Iā€™m not one for conspiracy theories but from my own highly ā€˜scientificā€™ observations, her dodge rate is at least 90% and her speed has got to be approaching something akin to very very fast. I canā€™t even begin to describe the joy I feel when Kad and her little friends evade my attempts to dispell.

All at warp speed.

Demon!

I wish I had her. :joy:

Ruby because when I face her I have to hope her Ninja family bonus wonā€™t make her dodge my special skills and/or that my tiles wonā€™t over-charge her.

I hate taunters paired with dodging specialists. Forces me to bring two dispellers.
