Hero Review

Edwin: The Butler Did It (With Poisoned Tea)

"Edwin, the Morlovia Family's cunning butler, serves a mean cup of Hemlock Tea. This fast Nature hero bypasses defenses and blocks cleansing, but can his older stats still keep up with the modern power creep? We analyze his viability, emblem paths, and whether he deserves a spot on your roster."
