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:

:thinking: Wondering About Your Personal Situation?

Feel free to discuss your team and roster here, and ask for advice from other Forum members.

If you’d like more extensive advice on sorting out your particular roster, I recommend creating a new thread in Gameplay Help & Tactics, and posting screenshots of your hero roster, along with your questions.

Mediocre for the same reason that Avianna is. The 280% hit isnt big enough to justify running the card for damage reasons, and the utility of buff blocking is a lot lower if the card doesn’t actually dispel any existing buffs. If you ignore the stats and just compare the special skill to C2 Caedmon then I’d say Caedmon is a lot better just because he actually dispels in addition to blocking.

Shes not absolutely awful though, probably better than zidane, Sini, Sir Casmir, etc.

she’s excellent, 280% may not seem impressive but: The target and nearby enemies receive 820 Frost damage over 4 turns.
The target and nearby enemies are immune to new status effect buffs for 4 turns, and receive 300 damage for each attempted buff
She is really good, I don’t understand why you criticize her

She will also get mana restored very quickly to prepare for the 2nd hit
I know there will be many people who don’t understand anything but always criticize her just because she is hotm

So 3 enemies receive frost damage will gain her 5% or 15% mana?

Pretty nice art work. Pairs well with Scarn , giving frost damage to all at VF nets her 25% per turn on raids

I have Skarn and realized this right away - I hope I get this HotM! She will cast in two turns (without any more blue tiles) automatically after Skarn fires. Or maybe with a high level magic/cyclops troops would it only be one turn? Hopefully I will get her and I can test

Yes, she will fire one turn after scarn with a mana troop ( just tested) with no additional tiles

I’m actually excited about this HOTM. She does a lot and stats are decent, not world breaking, but not weak.

I am very intrigued by this one! Got lucky and got costume Sobek and her at the same time. Surprisingly having a little issue trying to decide who to do first. I was thinking sobek no brainer, but the frost damage giving man could make her fire pretty quick.

She also works with Atlantea and Armel ( both fast frost damage to all)

I have whitefang who gives permanent frost damage. So she’s going to generate mana quickly. Or if you’re lucky enough to set up one frost stack with skadi you would have made mene’s life way easier by then

Yes, occurred to me too…but Atlantea is one of the worst heroes ever xause she really does nothing. I don"t need big damage, but something…if you test Mene out together with Atlantea, please let us know.
