Hero Edit Pros Edit Cons Edit

Alma Summoned ghosts serve as great distractions and can potentially even soak up single target ultimate skills

Good AoE damage

Increases whole teams magic damage by lowering all opponents magic resistance

Can fit in many teams and shares Awakening groups with many other very popular heroes Frail Mid-row

Suffers from Mid-row claustrophobia

Baggins Damage/Debuff support Hybrid

Lead of the arguably currently strongest and most readily available Awakening group Blind works well with Dodge-based heroes Magic Resistance debuff not really useful for most heroes he's being paired with

Frail Mid-row

Unimpressive Ultimate

Blaine Fairly good survivability compared to most other mid-row mages

Great CC and disruption due to team-wide silence and frequently cast Knock-up skill

Reduces the entire opposing teams magic resistance

Soul Stones available in Crusade shop

Fits into many teams and shares his Awakening group with several other very popular heroes

Reduces the entire enemy teams magic resistance Silence will completely backfire if opponent uses Gridlock

Basic attack only does half damage

Centax

Crabbie Great Magic Damage

Uses his single target stun fairly frequently

Viper Elixir equip allows him to act as a heal-debuffer

Awakened Skill gives increased Magic penetration for Horror Story heroes (includes Theresa and Lilith) Mostly outclassed by other mages/marksman unless coupled with Theresa and/or Lilith

Delphos Weak against teams that are clumbed up together

Weak against pet heavy teams/heros like Merlynn

Diaochan Capable of dishing out some truly monstrous and continuous damage over a large area

Arguably one of the strongest damagers for Crystal Dungeon, Tower Defense and Crusade, especially when coupled with Merlynn

Soul Stones available in Gold Wish Great as a substitute for Hero Brawl Terrible Awakening Group

Absolutely requires manual control to reach her full potential - if used by the AI her Ultimate will result in suicide more often then not

Edwin Excellent Magic Damage Especially great potential for burst damage

Ultimate banishes all pets inside the effected area Only effective with Knock-Up heroes, thus EXTREMELY restricted in terms of team building (Monk Sun, Blaine)

Frail mid-row

Ultimate removes all debuffs and cc from effected enemy heroes

Suffers from Mid-row claustrophobia

Questionable Gear and Awakening Groups

Emily Great for PVE (Crusade & Dungeon) due to her summon doing good damage and having great cc and distraction potential Good Buddy Awakening group lead; will increase the damage of other summoned creatures such as Almas ghosts and Rams scarabs Frail mid-row Underwhelming damage Suffers from Mid-row claustrophobia

Gorgana Passive: Ability Power increases with each attack, making her very effective in prolonged battles such as team raid

Surprisingly sturdy at higher quality levels due to many defensive runes, advancement bonuses and Dragon Prayers

Soul Stones readily available from Crusade Shop and Gold Wish Slow to get going

Brings nothing else but damage to the table

Poison duration is so short she can hardly make use of her bonus damage conditions

Suffers from Mid-row claustrophobia

Greeneye

Karas Can steal massive amounts of health, especially when coupled with Awakened Merlynn Unimpressive damage

Suffers from Mid-row claustrophobia Vulnerable to stuns and silence

Has trouble fitting into teams because he serves only as a magical tank

Karna Great AoE magic damage

Works incredibly well together with Merlynn & Candy Viper Elixir allows her to be used as a heal debuffer

One of the very few free options for the position of a back row mage Her passive is exceptionally great early on, but slowly loses effectiveness as the game progresses towards max level

Lilith Great damage

Excellent survivability for a damage dealer

Shares Awakening groups with many other popular heroes Doesn't bring anything else but damage to the table

Lotus

Medea Good damage

Summons bugs as distraction

Has skills which will focus on the most wounded opponent

Casts AoE silence early Highly likely to be the Death Rock Awakening lead (very anticipated Awakening group with lots of popular heroes)

Soul Stones available from Gold Wish Very frail mid-row

Jack of all trades, master of none

Suffers from Mid-row claustrophobia

Patra

Salman Soul Stones available in Gold Wish

Good support skills for pure AP teams

Useful in Crystal Dungeon Very frail mid-row

Requires a 2/1/2 line-up for his buff to take full effect

Usually not very useful except for a niche-role on AP based stall-teams

Thanos Good Magic Damage Soul Stones available from Arena Shop Frail mid-row

Suffers from Mid-row claustrophobia

No CC or support skills

Underwhelming passive skill

Struggles to bring anything to the team other mages can't do better
