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.

Why is her damage so negligible?

Damage increased to 220%, she probably one of the decent choice against Taunt

She’s also the poor man’s version of Cardinal Richelieu but an upgraded version of Elizabeth.

Her fiends are beefier than Cardinal R so its harder to recover via healing
Cardinal’s damage is higher
Her fiends block taunt while Cardinal’s steal a buf from target
She has bypasses taunt
She resists special skill blocking
She has elemental link to give +10 SS damage to all fire heroes
She will get HOTM bonus next year

She doesn’t look like a poor man’s version of Cardinal. I would like to summon her on top of Cardinal.

My problem with her… is I don’t especially like this month of portals. So unless I get really lucky, I probably won’t pull her… which is a damn shame because she does look useful.

This hero have ability I’ve suggested half of year ago :smile:

SG you really had to start copying art from your other match 3? Come on man. You make millions. Pay someone for new art.

She is one of the better HOTMs I’ve seen this year. Definitely worth keeping, and helps with the damn taunt meta.

Just got her with Nashgar in the costume chamber.
Honestly, I only skimmed her description and didn’t see about the taunt, so now I am really happy about getting her!

I managed to get her in the event portal after 4 pulls. I’m very happy to get her because most of my red heroes have very outdated stats so I might try her out on defense too.
