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.

Wow very powerful hero

Snow White on roids. Except he doesn’t cleanse, but whatever, strong and then gives buffs. Perfect for Buff Booster tourneys.

Priority dispel, 400-500 to all, and madness of attack and def up for 6 turns, serious???

I miss those days when a hero just has one niche. Like hammertusk, simple skillset, but still very effective at what he’s doing

It’s good that they left some room for an inevitable buff in the near future.

Shifting Mindless Attack and Ailment Reflect for all can still be squeezed on at the bottom.

I was in the middle of levelling Khagan (base, before I even get started on the multitude of costumes and toon)
 But boy oh boy do I hope I get this guy instead :heart_eyes: Keeping to the budget of course, and I won’t be mad if I continue down the road with the toon, but :crossed_fingers:

On fv modes he’s gonna attack for 450% all the time because of aether powers. Wow. And they nerfed that green orc from summer/sand portal before release.

19

Absolutely insane step from devs. They release this hero and they will “adjust” later - for sure. But if they continue this way, may be one day wake up and find empty playing servers
