Hero Review

Ruby: The Nuclear Option in a Ninja Suit

"Remember when 100% mana cut was considered a war crime? Ruby does. She might not have the stats of the modern era, but her 'delete mana' button is timeless. We break down if this glass cannon can still fire before shattering."

Mana Optimization Strategy

How it works

By default, Ruby has Ninja mana speed, requiring 4.9 tiles to charge. Equipping troops with a Mana Bonus can reach specific Breakpoints β€” the exact percentages where your tile count drops β€” allowing your hero to fire their special skill faster, with less tiles.
