With the release of the brand new update and heroes, I'm seeing a lot of mixed reviews of the various new heroes and individual threads on each one. In this dicussion I thought we could compare each to allow the community as a whole can see which heroes are worth sanctifying and starring....and those that aren't.
The Good
Those heroes that are (imho) essential
Cianna~Hits the opponents hero opposite her at the back of the line with her Ambush which has a chance to stun. Great in PvE and PvP situations and can inflict a lot of damage on a single target.
Calvin~hits the target directly in front with Will breaker, draining all morale (physical only). Another all rounder.
Adamantii~His Thousand Strikes hits all opponents (with the right runes). A really powerful hero when strengthened up. All rounder, with the exception of Banish Bosses.
Bloodstorm~Once his morale bar is filled he will continue to attack with his Rallying Strike, as his HP drains his damage increases. What can I say, this guy pwns!
Shayd~Who's Heart of Darkness can deal a powerful magic attack on a single target with a chance to stun. Being a mage she doesn't raise an opponents morale. Great all rounder but has a terrible hit rate.
Destroyer Herja~Her skill doesn't inflict HP damage but rather reduce an opponents morale and increasing the morale on your side. Physical heroes beside her on the field equipped with Lightbringer 6 sets will be able to fire off a skill attack every round as long as she survives.
The Bad
A misnomer really, kinda a mix of heroes I've come across which are useful but can live without
General Mulan~Her Flame Wall is a fairly ok attack. She hits all opponents lined up opposite her. Great hit rate as a mage, her only weakness is that although continous, comparied to to a well built (equipped with Lightbringer+) Rhize there's no contest. Rhize everytime.
Rhize~Hits all targets lined up opposite as Flame Wall but is the physical skill version. Can do critical hits which although needs a full morale bar ro fire off can inflict more damage, which is why when Rhize gets LB 6 set makes Mulan all but useless
Saffron~A great tank her Shield Wall is very useful PvP early on in the game and makes her a good choice as a sub.
Alexa~Another useful starter hero. Dervish Attack has the chance to hit a single target twice. However, without a decent hit rate rune she's easily dodged.
Catherine/Mehvidan~Both early starter mages whose magic attack Cloud Burst (inflicts damage to one target) very useful until Shayd is aquired.
Dawnbringer~Great 1st gold card with a lovely critical hit bonus. Sweeping Slash can be a handy skill.
Valla~The purple equivalant to Dawnbringer and doesn't have the bonus. Useful early on but is easily surplanted by much better heroes.
General Alcibiades~This guy is Dawnbringer on steroids. Frontal Assault hits all targets upfront regardless of whether they are lined up (which is Sweeping Slash's weakness)
Queen Brynhildr~Hits all targets like Horns of Hell (it's a magic attack) but her Heaven's Fury has the advantage of stunning. Tends to be a bit weak on the damage though and like Shayd, has a pretty low hit rate.
The Ugly
The heroes which aren't worth the time.
Smoulder~Gotten early on he's a pre-runner to Adamanti but easily supplanted by him. Horns of Hell hits all available targets but tends to miss.
Theres' my opinions on the various heroes I've come across and tested. It'll be interesting what others opinions are.
