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:

Interesting how now we are attacking MM with health reduction. Curious :thinking:

Feels like this would be one of the best heroes in the game for the average player because it just does so much – anti-dances, anti-minoins, dispell, bard, damage

Maybe not quite specialised enough to be absolutely top tier though

with her reduced minion health and 80% lowering of healing, she seems like pretty much the perfect costume diaochan counter if nothing else, but those are becoming semi common now

Its mostly to counter W3K minions as they cant be removed.
I assume she works in tandem with Ninjas?

No bonus hero for me, but I’m still happy to get her. I face so many W3K minion teams it’s nice to have a another tool to use against them.

Good hero with great passives to counter the current minion and mega minion summoners. Nice art also! Good job :slight_smile:

Von Rothbart is useful against this hero’s passives; after 1 turn the cursed hero will suffer 1700 damage…ouch…
