1.9 Hero Information

Yes, I did stay up this late.

Anyways, here is some information about the new 1.9 heroes' skills, and my rating (on a scale of 0-10) how useful they will be.

Anatol: Soul Harmony-When a friendly hero dies, Anatol will receive 8% attack and max HP of the dead hero. 6.5
Charles the Great: For the King-Hero's attack increase 60%, and when hero's health drops below 50% of max HP, Hero summons in an extra squad (equal to minions at start of battle). 9.0
Cyrus: Arcane Arrow-Hero and minions deal double damage to any enemy who has been damaged by a skill before the attack. ~7 (depending on his stats)
Einar: Multi Shot-40% proc rate, and will deal damage to 15 enemies around the center of Einar. Attacked troops' defense will drop 45% for 10s after the attack. 9.0
William Tell: Lucky Apple: 65% proc rate, gives two random heroes a lucky apple. The lucky apple makes the hero ignore damage. 7.0

Anyone else notice that we now have two Edwards, two Charles', and two Williams. This will get confusing...

My commentary:
Anatol could be used as a backup unit (for when the rest of your army is dead), and as a good counter against 3MA strategies. Charles the Great is the first Charles to actually be great. He seems like a good tank. Cyrus could do extreme damage when paired up with any AOE (even Edward lol). I see Einar as being potentially useful for wrecking big tanks like Alash (there are so many ways to kill him now), and William Tell would work excellently with Reinhard, Eugene, and so many others.

Then again, Triniti is probably going to nerf these guys so....


Also these are all tavern heroes. Time to spend eleven goblets!

    1. 3MA = Triple Mounted Archer, when you use Nicolai, Absalom, and Englefield together. Often Robinhood,Elizabeth, and other hero-killers are used with the strategy too. It works well at lower levels when AOE really matters, but weakens at higher levels when minions start to matter more and more.

  2. There's something strange with Cyrus. Originally it was additional 100% dmg on 12 level. But Sam recently wrote "additional 200%" which means triple (!) damage. Cyrus' stats is not a mystery but they doesn't mean much because his minions also receive this buff. And don't think of AOE only. Igni and GDR could be even better partners for him (if there won't be any bugs...).

  3. :) Exactly how many goblets I have but I usually get pretty lucky with my rolls, seeing how I had all tavern heroes at level 50ish
