Gideon: The Faun Who Dares You To Dispels Him
"Gideon isn't your average healer. He doesn't just fix your team; he sets a trap. With a 100% dodge mechanic that punishes dispellers with a massive heal, he's a mind-game master. But in a world of 'Never Miss' snipers and lightning-fast battles, can this Slow-speed Faun still command respect? We break down the numbers."
