All the League of Villains?
Are their DoT undispellable? I read their cards just now and there is no word about it… They can’t be overwritten by similar DoT, i.e. corrosive burn can’t be overwritten by regular burn, but there is no info that corrosive burn is undispellable.

O right. Confused again!
I’m sure there were more though.

Good to know. Usually I don’t really pay attention; you kinda have to record a battle and replay it frame for frame to determine.
Would be cool if they buffed Reuben to be an inverse Franz, and just reduce ALL damage by half… One can dream…
As named above: costume azlar, Jabberwocky, CoK raven heroes when there are more then 1 and the cast ailment becomes uncleansable. Maybe more, but the amount of heroes SG introduces is to high to keep up…
I will add Vela and Cheshire Cat to that list. Maybe there are a few more heroes, but we have now 4 (four) heroes. And CoK, but there’s 35% or 50% chance that their DoT will be uncleansable.
Well, it does not look good for Reuben. ^^

Hi @SamMe ,
I brought Reuben to +18, went def, atk, HP for emblem path and his stats are
1385 HP, 849 def, 841 atk and they aren’t bad at all.
I didn’t have any luck in finding a fast 5* red hero so far (no, not even Marjana), so I had no option but to max and emblem him.
He’s good, I like his fast minions, his atk is pretty good especially when using def down. Of course I don’t have as many options, but he actually hits harder than I thought when using him on attack teams, hits 3 enemies and there’s no “minor damage to nearby enemies”.
I think I might LB him soon since I have zero competition for him so far and overall his stats are pretty solid.
If you have more questions, please feel free to ask.

That’s a good point. I tried hard for him when he came out because my reds are bad. Game decided I was not worthy of Reuben.
Last CoK I had lots of cleansers and a combo of HoT and direct heal in Raff and Viv for legendary. That spreading poison guy fired and it became uncleansable. Even with Raff and Viv the damage was too much. Reuben may have changed that. Again, niche … but there.

Using slayers with Reuben, you can halve the DOT and then the slayer’s passive halves it further
Thank you @Chein for your interesting review on Reuben! 
A follow up question please: any particular attack down hero(es) that you prefer to pair with Reuben?
I normally bring Gormek (+20 and costume bonuses) with me when attacking with Reuben. I’m still chasing Guardian Falcon, actively running the HA8, but no luck on that so far.

Thank you again for answering my question @Chein!
Good luck with getting Falcon from HA8 soon!

Good to see someone else using Reuben! Haha. 
I have also emblemed my Reuben up to +19, prioritising attack/swords. I have him used regularly on one of my war teams, with Malosi, Boldtusk, Mitsuko, and Mist. This team usually scores me one-shots in my war flags. Fast mana speed hitting three enemies at once, DoT reduction, and minions covering all of my team (he and Malosi synergise well because of the HotM family bonus) - despite many people claiming he is bad, I actually found a regular use for him in my roster. 
My most recent war flag with Reuben in the team:

Thank you for sharing. 
Still having no fire heroes to ascend, other than Reuben and Elena, I am so tempted to ascend him. He´s still at 3/70, and I only have enough to ascend one, and these ascension materials are hard to come by for me.
No materials left to LB anyone - These are what I have - Would you spend the Rings? I have two Damascus Blades.
Thank you for weighing in 
Edit: Ooops, noticed I haven´t added the most recent heroes I´ve gotten, but it consists of a couple of three and four stars, nothing worth to mention here.

An argument could be made for either Elena or Reuben. I don’t think there is a “wrong” choice.
If it were me playing with that roster I would probably pick Reuben. IIRC you’re a mono player. You don’t have much healing. Boldtusk is a low percentage. Noor helps, but is slow. Reds are also somewhat high A low health. Reuben gives you a fast hit, reduces DoT (which can cause havoc on low HP reds), and give a pseudo heal with minions.
I have Glenda of the same year and elemental link. The minions are nothing to write home about, but if you desperate for health it doesn’t hurt.
Elena and Reuben have good A values, so that’s kind of a draw. Also, if you really want riposte you have Ferent. He doesn’t cause damage, but is better overall.
The fast hit 3 is better in more places than another slow hero and riposte. I would emblem him but hesistate to LB him. Boldtusk, Guardian Falcon, Gormek, Reuben probably hurts. Colen to finish or something. 
That’s just me though.
Good luck!

Reuben is my second fully leveled 5* red hero after Mitsuko. Aside from his usual spot in my war team, I have also used him a lot in the recent Magic Tower (he is a Cleric, so he could withstand five curses). Hit-three or hit-all heroes are useful in events.
Given your roster, I would probably ascend Reuben. I won’t worry too much about the ascension materials since they would arrive eventually (provided you don’t summon too often that you would always get new 5* heroes, haha). Elena is good for titan hunting because of her high attack stat, and she is also strong in rush attack, but if you are looking for a counterattacker, Ferant could fill in the spot nicely.
Oh, and I see that you ascended Noor as well. She will probably be my next 5* red hero project, if ever I don’t get any new heroes soon. I have accumulated 12 mystic rings at the moment, and am just finishing Russell now.
That is a pretty good choice in today’s meta. She works well against a lof of strong minions such as Hulda’s, Freya’s, Xmas team minions, etc.
Thank you - those are good thoughts.
Perhaps I can cupdrop a bit and try him out again at 3/70. The hassle of lack of ascending materials, I overthink too much
Thank you, I might just do that then - growing tired of waiting for other heroes too.
Yes, Noor serves me so well, very happy about her - she helps me out a lot in many places. Enjoy her 
The hero card is adjusted with the december balance update.
