Hero Review

Daemon: The Very Fast "No You Don't" Button for Sha Wujing & Luna

"Daemon is the hero who brings a rose to a gunfight and wins by simply saying "No." With his Very Fast dispel and talent block, he was designed to shut down the most annoying heroes in the game. But two years later, does this dashing stag knight still have the stats to survive the arena, or has he withered away?"

How it works

By default, Daemon has Very Fast mana speed, requiring 6.5 tiles to charge. Equipping troops with a Mana Bonus can reach specific Breakpoints — the exact percentages where your tile count drops — allowing your hero to fire their special skill faster, with less tiles.
