Hero in this version start at "level 1" at the beginning of every stage regardless of what level you got your hero at any stage. I'm going give my own personal opinion and rating on each hero based on my purpose for the hero and how well it does on that purpose. Every player have a different playstyle so I must state my purpose for the hero that may or may not be the same for every player for the hero.


Purpose: Last line of defense, I usually put them near the goal post or end point.

Personal Opinion Rating (with explanation):

• Bad: For whatever reason this hero is not doing their job (my purpose for them) good enough and the majority of the enemy is passing them.
• Fair: Can do a decent job but can be overwhelm if too much enemy is around.
• Good: Can resistance in varies way to prevent the majority of the enemy from even reaching the end point.

Those with no rating are usually the Free hero you get, unless they "bad" I have no comment on them.

Primary Attack (Explanation): Their regular or normal attack

• Melee: Physical close combat attack, can't attack air unit
• Range: Physical range attack; can attack air and ground unit. will go melee if ground unit get too close but the melee attack is much weaker then it normal attack.
• Magic: Magic range attack; can attack air and ground unit. will go melee if ground unit get too close but the melee attack is much weaker then it normal attack.

Purchase Required "Hero" (With Real Money)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bolin Farslayer

Primary Attack: Range
My Personal Opinion Rating: Fair

Comment/Reason: If you talking about range then the hero "Alleria Swiftwind" is the better choices. It may fire like a revolver but it too much like a shotgun. It also has slower movement speed then "Alleria Swiftwind". This hero can do a decent job if it not too crowed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Magnus Spellbane

Primary Attack: Magic
My Personal Opinion Rating: Bad

Comment/Reason: It low health and low rate of fire. It fire at the same rate like your mage tower and because you start at "level 1" every time you begins a stage. He die too easily with his low HP and weak melee.

Ignus

Primary Attack: Melee
My Personal Opinion Rating: Good

Comment/Reason: Excellent at crowd control mostly on slow moving unit.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
King Denas

Primary Attack: Range
My Personal Opinion Rating: Bad

Comment/Reason: Slow movement speed combine with short range of attack.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Elora Wintersong

Primary Attack: Magic (damage and slow down enemy movement speed)
My Personal Opinion Rating: Good

Comment/Reason: Unlike the other mage hero (Magnus Spellbane), this hero attack not only does it do damage, it can also slow the enemy movement speed down when hit. Also all the special ability of this hero does the same thing expect in AOE attack.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ingvar Bearclaw

Primary Attack: Melee
My Personal Opinion Rating: Good

Comment/Reason: If you want high damager and good blocker, then this hero is the choice. However the downside of this hero is that it can't attack air unit, it doesn't have fast movement speed, and it attack rate is just average compare to other melee hero.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hacksaw

Primary Attack: Melee
My Personal Opinion Rating: Bad

Comment/Reason: Slow attack rate and slow movement speed. It may not die easily but it attack rate is slow and it move slow.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oni

Primary Attack: Melee
My Personal Opinion Rating: Fair

Comment/Reason: Oni and Thor, if you compare them with each other in term of their normal attack, attack rate, and stat; it about the same. Only by seeing their special ability in my opinion that Thor have the edge (in term of my purpose for the hero) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thor

Primary Attack: Melee
My Personal Opinion Rating: Fair

Comment/Reason: Oni and Thor, if you compare them with each other in term of their normal attack, attack rate, and stat; it about the same. Only by seeing their special ability in my opinion that Thor have the edge (in term of my purpose for the hero). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
