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:

She looks fun!

How did she go???

I pulled her, maxed and LB like the above picture and enjoy using her. On titans she’s pretty good. That passive damage gets high pretty quick.

I just got her from the portal, the only downfall for me is the fact she is Ranger. I am using emblems for Evyln + Khepri

That was a long time with no discussion. I know she is just a point a shoot card at some very good speed, But has anyone who has her actually levelled and use her. I dont see her even in tourney defenses. I got her today and was thinking if i should use mats on her.

I thought about it but when I got Kitty, she jumped the 4*lvling queue :blush:

Knuckles is great! I have him lb’d, his reflect is great , I’ve even brought him in against Alfrike

There is an important difference between Knuckles’ and Kitty’s SS. Knuckles reflects negative stacks, like the mana stacks from the Magic Tower family.

My Meadow is used with Maheegan, Bogart and Zhabog in blood tournaments and they don’t do bad at all…

Just pulled her, seems not a lot iarr exited or… nobody is disappointed. This can also be the case :grinning:

I’m about to start my next purple project and Meadow is in consideration. But I’m not sure if she’s actually that great.

Very fast special is nice. 265% is weak, but it also comes with 404 poison and 150 bleed. The 10% chance to turn damage to 1 is nice, and although it could be gamechanging, won’t happen too often.

Right now I build a dark epic team around:
C2.Rigard/C.Sabina depending on which is needed
Sergei for EDD

Then I round it out with 1-3 of the following as needed
C.Tiburtus for hit all and defense down (also the superior talent helps)
Proteus: mana control
Ametrine: dispel plus charge gives me versatility

I already have 5 epic heroes, I don’t go mono in Epic too often, and there aren’t any terribly troublesome epic holy tanks that Meadow would counter.

I don’t see a lot of love for her in this thread. I rarely see her on defense. I’ll skip leveling her for now.

She isn’t a game changer, but she has her uses. Her speed is very useful and the damage + DOT helps in softening one target.
I use Sergie, Ametrine and Meadow in a lot of situations. They all usually charge together and will result in at least 1 dead enemy in 2 turns.
But the problem for her is she has to compete with C2 Rigard, Proteus + Costume bonus, Arges, Kitty, Ana Belle, C2/ C1 Tiburtus, C2 Cyprian, Sergie, Sharkai, Cupcake and Ingolf.
Her problem is there are so many who outshine her in her own colour.

I have her at LB and +20 talents

Me too, for defence she is too fragile. I use her in my yellow titan team because of high atk (and because I have noone better in purple ).
She also works ok in tournament attack teams, together with Sergey, Tibs and Merlin, the vfast mana is useful, but I would not say she is a gamechanger. Just a useful sniper.

17

I am wondering how good she is. I am looking for speed in my purples. If I had her at +20 can she do some low diamond raiding? I am working in a few other DoT heroes and have Zhabog to help for some events and PvE. She can pair with Maheegan.

I am short aethers to LB1 for now.

I have some 5’s waiting, but want to finish and worthwhile 4’s before moving up. The game shifts so fast now from worthwhile to not.

:beers:

What do you use today? I barely think she has value in four star tournaments let alone raids. She has speed and that’s about it.

I have a lot of support in purples, but less attackers. A lot of mine are average speed too. Off the top of my head, my primary damage dealers are:

Malicna
Toon Sartana
Seshat
Domitia
Morax

Everyone else is mana control, healer, support of some kind. I do have some 5’s coming up to level, but they’re months out.

With the exception of Seshat, I’d rather have multiple Toon Sartanas than Malicna, Domitia, Morax, or Meadow.

For Epic heroes, I find Tiburtus and Proteus to be more valuable (both with one costume).

Doing some quick Meadow math…she does 404 poison plus the 150 DOT for a total of 554 over four turns, plus a hit up front. A 4/70 Meadow has 1275 health (no emblems or LB included) so it would take 2 Meadows just to kill herself. That’s at least 12 purple tiles to kill one (over four turns).

I don’t think she does enough.
