Hey there

If we're talking about visuals nearly all new epics and legendaries look amazing so far.

If we're talking about skills and mechanics Cardiel looks really interesting and of course Countess Lix paired with the new fusion Astralon sound interesting to me too.

We'll see how they will fit into the meta or if their time is yet to come

Cheers =)

It's funny when I never use any new champs since Rotos, some new champs look promising but in the end they are all weak in weird ways. 

I have wrote down on my notepad a few champions from 3.30 Update I find interesting.

1st hero = Deacon Armstrong

I believe Deacon is the first hero I have ever seen which does Turn Meter Gain + AOE Def Down.

I don't remember any other hero in the game which can do it.

For this reason, I am very curious to see how Deacon would do on my Arena Offense Team.

Here is a picture of my Offense Arena team incase you are wondering.

i

It is a Speed Nuking set up.

Apothecary -----> Turn Meter Filling 15% + Increase Speed

Arbiter ---------> Turn Meter Filling 30% + Increase Attack

Warmaiden ----> AOE Def Down

Foli ------------> AOE Nuke + Block Revive

Now image what would happen if I replaced my Warmaiden with Deacon!

I am thinking Deacon will do his A3 move first.

So the following situation:

Apothecary -----> Turn Meter Filling 15% + Increase Speed

Arbiter ---------> Turn Meter Filling 30% + Increase Attack

Deacon --------> Turn Meter Filling 15% + Reduce Enemy Meter by 15% + Gain Extra Turn

Deacon --------> AOE Def Down

Foli ------------> AOE Nuke + Block Revive

Why is this important?

Well if Deacon gives me extra Turn Meter.

I can reduce my Foli Speed and convert the loss Speed into more Damage. 

The BIG question will be what move does Deacon AI Prioritze on Auto?

If A3 move into A2 move, I think I might have a new contender for my Arena Offense team.

If A2 move, I think I might just keep my Warmaiden for my Arena Offense team.

2nd hero = Lodric Falcon Heart

I think this hero could be a Clan Boss or Doom Tower specalist.

I think it all depends on how many tomes you put into him!

If your using Lodric for Clan Boss, You would want his A3 move to be on 3 turn cool down.

If your using Lodric for Doom Tower, You would want his A3 move to be on 2 turn cool down.

I already have my Clan Boss team built so I don't really need Lodric for my Clan Boss team.

However, I am thinking about using Lodric in Doom Tower for my Scarab King team.

Just think about Lodrics moves for one moment!

A1 move does Atk Down - Clan Boss & Scarab King both hit really hard.

Reducing there Atk is amazing.

A2 move does Cleasing for 1 hero - Clan Boss does a Stun on 1 hero.

It can be really good to remove it.

A3 move does Shield for 2 turns on either 2 turn cool down or 3 turn cool down.

You can use books, until you reach the amount you want.

2 turn Shield on 2 turn Cool Down for Scarab King = 100% uptime on Shield

2 turn Shield on 3 turn Cool Down for Clan Boss = Your Shield will be in Sync with Boss

3rd hero = Tarshon

The Demonspawn Faction have 2 Turn Meter Filling Champions.

• Prince Kymar
• Diabolist

Prince Kymar is a Legendary which is very tough to acquire.

Diabolist is a Farmable Rare in Campaign Chapter 12.

However, I have never really liked Diabolist on my Demonspawn team.

I feel like Diabolist doesn't offer a lot of extra utility.

My Current Demon Spawn team is the following:

• Fellhound
• Mortu Macaab
• Souldrinker
• Alure
• Diabolist

I think I am on Stage 15 in the Demon Spawn Faction.

I think my Demon Spawn team isn't really up to the task of winning.

I am looking for improvements + suggestions of course.

Diabolist isn't a bad hero, but I am just looking at what Tarshon brings to the table.

Tarshon can do AOE weaken

Tarshon can do Increase Defense on all my Allies.

Tarhson does slightly more Turn meter Fill vs. Diabolist.

Lets say Diabolist is a good hero with a score of 3.

I feel like Tarshon is a great hero with a score of like 4.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As far as the other heroes go, Here is my Stance on the Legendaries.

I didn't read any of the Legendary hero's skills.

Why? Because I have horrible luck in pulling shards.

I'll never pull those Legendary heroes from a shard.

No point in reading the skills for a hero you'll never have.

Reading the Legendary hero's skills will only make me depressed.  

Runekeeper DazDurk is a Void Epic.

Void Epics are just as hard to pull as Legendaries from a shard so I'll never get him.

No point in reading his skills, either.

Quargan The Crowned looks like a Great Epic.

The problem is my account is really close to end game.

I have beat all the Dungeons.

I have beat Lizardmen Faction Stage 21.

Most of the places I would use Quargan in are already covered.

If I was to pull a Quargan, I would only level him up to have fun.

It would be like a new toy to play with.

I think Quargan can be a great hero for people who are struggling to beat Lizardmen Faction.

The Shield can be really helpful.

I used Vergumkaar has my Shield Champion in Lizardmen Faction.

Pestilus, Fodbor The Bard, Godseeker Aniri, and Prundar are Chickens to Me.

Why are these heroes chickens to me? Because they break my personal rule.

The players in the community have continously told the developers to stop making heros which require so many books.

The game refuses to listen to the player base.

The game wishes to play by there own rules.

Well, guess what, I have my own personal rules too.

Any Champion which takes more than 15 books is a Chicken.

I refuse to use them.

Did you see the hero named Prundar? 

20 Bloody Epic Tomes - 20 OF THEM - for 1 champion!

2 Weeks later he will get nerfed and no one will get refunded books

or 2 Weeks later the game will bring out 20 new heroes which power creep him.

All those people who used him + fully booked him will get laughed at by the community.

And feel betrayed by the game when they don't get refunded them books.

It's not happening to me.

I have already put my foot down.

If the game wants to continue to make champions have 20 books, They can do it.

I am to old and to tired to agrue with them.

They can do what ever they want to do, but I'm not going to jump aboard there little book wagon.

RIP To the Designer who made the hero.

Awesome Avatar - Awesome Champion Design - Awesome Skills - 15 Books - Instant Chicken

The game keeps giving me Chicken Pack deals in the Shop.

I don't buy any of them want to know why?

Crushing High Book costing epics is my Business.

And Business is Good! 

As far as the other heroes go, Here is my Stance on the Rare. 

My Shard pulling luck is so bad.

I will probably pull 3-4 copies of every one of those new rares.

No point in reading there skills now.

What I will do is hold off reading there skills.

Than when I pull shards and get them.

It will be like a mini-suprise to me.

OMG - I never seen this rare before.

This rare can do this move? 

Wow - Total amazing!

It's almost like giving a gift to yourself.

This Rare Skills is To Player J from Player J

Oh, you shouldn't have!

Your just so thoughtful.

When I spend 30 bucks buying them shard packs, It wasn't to pull a Legendary.

It was to pull a rare so I can read his skills.

I was just so dying to know what his skills were.

It was eating me up inside really.

There is nothing special in your arena offend team, pretty simple, who go first win. Since the game is designed by no-brainers, all arena players do the same, speed, speed, speed and speed. 

I never said my arena offense team was special.

I said Deacon Armstrong could be an improvement to my current set up.

This is why I find him interesting as a new addition to the game.

Why not spider instead of warmaiden?

I tried using Spider before, but he kept doing the A2 move.

The AI doesn't like to do his Def Down for some reason.

I hope they fix it one day.

Its fixed 

Awesome - I will give him a try.

I didn't realize they had fixed him.

Yep. Much better than warmaiden, especially to clean up an unkillable 

Arena is all about speed indeed, get your apothecary to speed 250+ and then get a really heavy hitter and you should walk through the arena nicely

Finish all masteries if you want to stay in the competition, that is the only thing that make your hitter hit that much harder

well, thanks for repying, I havent been online for awhile, but I agree, the AoE preperation is a great strat, but it serverly difficult to find champions tham reduce the turn meters' of the opponent via "crowd" control

I have to say Cardial, though I do not need a cleanser, seem like a really great champion, I thought Falconheart was better, but the book requirement for the two turn shield could be of use to someone, I am kind of leaning on the idea that the passive from "anhri the god-seeker" applys to the whole team, that would actually be a kill all strategy. I guess I would lean more towards the "Deacon", he's like my seeker, but maybe considerable "stronger"

I got Deacon Armstrong and immediately stopped leveling up other champs. As I've seen his skill-set I knew that he has to become my next lvl 60. Like Player J allready pointed out, he is the only champ in Teleria that combines AoE def debuff with turnmeter filling - and he get's an extraturn after his turnmeterskill. In speednuker arena teams he does the job of two champs at the same time, it's like fighting 5 vs. 4.

A few days after I pulled Deacon Armstrong I pulled Teela Goremane. Surprising to see, that the new epics are so much better than old legendaries.
