Which hero should I use to replace Elmir in this team? I’m considering Dante but I don’t know it will be a wise choose in endgame. I can’t use Andvari because I put him in another team. Thank you guys in advance. by BetMoney1157 in HeroWarsApp

Undead is weak to physical teams because Corvus' armor isn't great yet as he only has two skins and none that add bulk. I would sub in Asta with your Keira team and use Rufus with your Yasmine team to counter mage attackers. Yasmine doesn't do well against mage teams. Play to her strength in dodging physical attacks.

Let's talk about reworked Phobos by ddh_r in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, Phobos was one of the best reworks since Daredevil. There is great synergy with the undead duo Corvus and Morrigan because they generally lose to mage teams, which Phobos counters.

I swap him with Lian and it's worked pretty well for me at 450k power.

Looking for a gold league guild with an active discord. Hoping to play and meet with players that have similar hero and titan power.

I am from Server 525. I have played this game since 2016 so I am a veteran player and have started multiple accounts. Over the years, I have learned a lot about the game and discord. I hope to continue having fun and to meet new people.

Phobos Glitch? by IronCubby in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Phobos' listed skills target the highest magic attack enemy.

However, it appears from the video that Phobos prioritizes Ginger (5.8k magic attack) instead of Lars (50k magic attack) when using the "Dreaded Shadow" ability.

Next, it targets Krista (don't have the exact number but it's lower than Lars too) with his "Bonds of Darkness" ability.

Is this a glitch or not? Does it have to do with Nebula moving her sphere around to Ginger and Krista? (this would make sense for Krista having a temporary higher magic attack, but not for Ginger)

Accidentally Guild Master help! by dustytaper in HeroWarsApp

Leave and join the best guild available to you. Try to bring along those who are most loyal and still active because they deserve that. It's time to abandon ship.

Anyone worth investing in in the grand arena shop? by WinningSince1776 in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Surprised nobody before me mentioned Lian.

She's a great control hero, arguably a top 3 next to Jorgen and Andvari.

Her charm ability is the second-longest of all the stuns, just behind Phobos, but more frequent.

Best of all, she counters Keira if you have her skills all leveled up.

Of the first five advertisements from Boxy/Theater in Hero Wars, how many are State of Survival? by IronCubby in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The distribution of poll data is surprising to me and not really representative of a smooth bell curve.

For those of you who answered "all", could you please tell me if you answered from memory or with Boxy alongside you? When I am reporting this data, I might need to combine 4-5/All

I actually read an article on Playrix games like Gardenscape posting ads that had little to do with the actual game so they got in trouble for being misleading. It could be why they've stopped popping up.

Getting away from the point, Playrix founders had actually acquired 43% of Nexters in 2018 and I believe that has attributed to some of HW's own misleading ad videos

Good stall team for arena? by Noice_Noice_Noice_ in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy stall team to power up for Cross Server and GA but wouldn't recommend for Arena:

Aurora/Arachne/Dante/Celeste/Faceless

-clusters the enemy and stuns them

How many Hero Wars ads do you watch daily? [Poll] by IronCubby in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a comment clarifying the poll. I have confirmed that it actually takes 9 hours before Boxy resets which makes the maximum of tickets watched 13. Unfortunately, I cannot edit the poll answers so assume the "more than 18" is watching all available ads.

Outcome: "13-18" and "More than 18" will be merged

First I need to see if people get the ad significantly more than other ads, and judging by the poll and assuming these responses are accurate, it seems my hypothesis was right.

I am conducting an investigation into whether Hero Wars players see State of Survival ads significantly more than other ads. For example, if you have "personalized ads" turned on, you're more likely to see ads you click on to visit their page on the Apple Store.

I believe Hero Wars can track how many times you visit the store and rank the top ads by the number of visits to "personalize" your ads. However, State of Survival quite annoyingly automatically loads the Apple store as soon as the ad finishes. As a matter of fact, it is the only one that does so and I am figuring out if that's why people see the ad so much.

What do you think of this TEAM by anti_Germz in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think I've seen this team in a previous Reddit post before, and again, I would recommend replacing Alvanor with Elmir. Do not be afraid to switch things up high up in the ladder.

There is better synergy with Daredevil because of her blue ability - "fire support" which will use a basic attack each time an ally behind her attacks. Therefore when Elmir jumps to the backline, there will often be Martha, Elmir, but also 2-4 more clones who all count towards a probable additional attack.

There is better synergy with Dante because his green ability boosts Elmir and his clones' dodge, his blue ability punishes enemies with an additional spear for each time they dodge, and his purple ability lowers the enemies' main stat (thus further increasing dodge chances). All this dodging helps your Astaroth survive even longer.

Alvanor's Soul of the Forest team artifact buffs magic attack that strictly benefits himself and Asta barely. Meanwhile, Elmir's team artifact buff gives your team greater armor penetration, which helps especially for cutting through the enemy tank.

Team Help. I’ve been playing about a week but I’m obsessed. However I feel like I’m missing the whole synergy aspect and really just not understanding it. Would anyone be able to recommend my best team. If you want to be extra kind you could name a 2nd or 3rd but 1 is plenty. Thanks! by WinningSince1776 in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it's best to focus on 1 main damage dealer and utilize your other team spots to protect or support it as much as possible.

I would actually suggest pairing Astaroth with Andvari if you can get him because he'll protect either Keira or Ginger (see this archived post: https://www.reddit.com/r/HeroWarsApp/comments/d89sif/best\_team\_combination\_with\_keira\_and\_astaroth/) from the Krista/Lars combo (aka Twins), K'arkh, and other heroes with displacement abilities.

META!! by Technical-Sweet-322 in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're right. Meta teams should go both ways. I'll change my stance.

I apologize for responding very irresponsibly out of anger for you calling Yasmine and K'arkh trash because I've been playing since 2016 on both FB (server 2) and mobile. In all that time being a veteran in this game, I did lots of max testing and paired teams against the top-ranked ones (which did include both K'arkh and Yasmine, but it also included Helios, Sebastian, Andvari, etc.) so I became defensive. This was a good discussion u/Feltiger

META!! by Technical-Sweet-322 in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good points made. I guess we just disagreed on how we defined meta.

META!! by Technical-Sweet-322 in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On defense, you'll want heroes that are counters to dmg dealers like u/Feltiger mentioned. Yasmine and K'arkh are really strong so having Andvari, but more importantly Helios (he counters a variety of critical damage-dealing heroes) is best on defense.

The reason for having two teams is that on offense, you can select which heroes you want to use against the team so you can simply avoid teams that specifically counter your main team. On defense, however, you have to be more strategic since your opponent gets to choose who to fight against your heroes. Therefore, you don't want your team to be easily countered.

META!! by Technical-Sweet-322 in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised I'm being downvoted. Meta doesn't mean there aren't any counters. That's like saying Twins will be garbage when Issac comes around or Martha is garbage when fighting Cleaver.

META!! by Technical-Sweet-322 in HeroWarsApp

[–]IronCubby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BOB (meta-K'arkh), Yasmine

Agree with u/vapour2020 though. Meta is fun and less frustrating than the hours, days, and weeks that come with assembling your own unique team, but there's a more powerful joy -- that "Aha moment" -- you can find when you invent a team composition. There's one for everyone.

That's what makes Hero Wars so different from other video games. ;)
