Sir Casmir – 5* Dark / Purple - August 2024 HOTM (Hero of the Month) -- Initial Release

I am picturing

Phenexa - Casmir - Ukkonen

heal-over-time giving free mana ticks to Casmir, plus Phenexa renewing buffs, Ukkonen making them undispellable, and Phenexa’s attack buffs making Casmir’s Random Punch of Randomness punchier.

It occurs to me that as many little heal ticks as possible (HoT buff, healing element links, healing as an effect from minions, healing incoming from hybrid “heal other heroes for X% of damage dealt”, even “just” Fast/VF heals) would be a way to build around Casmir.

still not sure why Sir Casmir merited a nerf from beta; while losing the defense buff isn’t a gamebreaker, but I can’t see that having it was a gamebreaker either

Yeesh, this, yeah.

Anything chance/percentage based (dodge, revive, “random effect” Specials, etc.) sure does seem to at least feel that way. —If nothing else, on offense you have to allow for the “chance” not working (you can’t rely on it, nor its targeting), and on defense you could second-guess yourself because every Special you fire could result in a defending Casmir surgically striking whichever hero is lowest hp/closest to firing.

Perhaps this one could be decent on a phenexa, Ludwig, hulda, casmir team… With a wild card… I don’t love it though. Ludwig mostly negates casmir reflect…

He has interesting CF tier skills. If he was a challenge festival hero he would definitely have more viable stuff he can work with

I knew he looked familiar

wow, down to the name… I suppose the main effort for crearing new heroes goes into the new OPed Slimes and Garrison Guards :upside_down_face:

Feels like a poor man’s improvement on Goldie

That is a ridiculous design. A guy in a suit of armour with an AK47 (or something highpowered, anyway). What is the logic behind that. A suit of armour is bloody pointless against a gun. Unless youre in the MCU and dig your metals up in Wakanda, all thats gonna do is slow you down and make you easier to hit.

You gotta think time travel. The doctor escaped the middle ages in that ugly armour, lands in Texas and removes an Ak47 from a school shooter. Easy really. Lol

The only thing this guy has in common with Goldie is reflect, and this guy doesn’t give it to the whole team.

Goldie is 1000x times better and cheaper to max.

This guy, I’m sorry, but I am hopeless about him.

• Priority cleanse is cool… for 3 at slow isn’t cool.
• 600% damage to a random enemy when enemies fire their specials is cool… that have 50% chance is deffo not cool. A dispeller can be ready ages before him.
• Reflect ailments is nice but again at slow for only 3 it can be a big fail.

(If he were an event hero or a goblin he would do all that at fast with extra 400 TP in his stats. Hahahaha)

For those who still don’t own a decent dark tank - probably a F2P - he’s better than nothing. but C. Jabber would be so much better and was avaible for 10 souls. I am not judging, me myself only got a decent tank some little months ago when Ludwig came from a lonely pull in Elemental Portal.

The defense buff he had was a good justification for the slow speed, but now he’s nothing more than a slug you can just ignore, avoid or simply dispel with someone cheap like C2 Li Xiu. :face_with_open_eyes_and_hand_over_mouth:

Just my two pennies. Maybe I am being crazy but he seems just so so so weak. His mana passive is actually the only detail i like about him.

Thanks for pointing R&N had same passive. I tried her with Shaal on a wave with 5 enemies and R&N got like 30% of mana along with that heal. I assume the same applies to Sir Casmir. In that case Shaal as tank with Sir Casmir on flank can be interesting. Also the likes of Hilda and Sparklight who heal thrice per turn can charge Casmir with mana even without tiles on offense.

I have now already gotten him twice in 15 pulls. Wonder how many by the end of the month lol

https://youtu.be/VuDH8Dk-QpcWhat is Your thoughts about him?

IMO the worst HotM of the last 12 months!
Kind of slow Danzaburo.
Why SG? Why spawning one useless HoTM after the other. HotM should be a bonus and encourage us to summon, the last ones were a burden, only allocating hero slots waiting for next SE.
The only usable this year were Bo&Runt and Zarga, and situational Anoushka.

Happy gaming

I would definitely like to get a reasonable tank HotM as my defense sucks. Was glad to see a paladin, then read the card. Sad.
I have some hope still for Aviana though on offense…

This is the type of legendary that goes straight into the Soul Changes melting pot.

Pity really as everybody loves a Knight but he should be called Sir Tuna as he is simply food in a metal tin.
