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
