Safe decision

Build it when these jobs solve a real team gap. Test the complete setup before spending rare rerolls or replacing a proven slot.

Kit interpretation

What The Hero does

Buffs nearby Physical units, with the damage bonus growing at each upgrade. Use only when the carry actually benefits.

These are mechanical roles, not a promise that the unit wins every map. Placement, upgrades, target type, allies and stage duration can change the outcome.

Reroll stop rule

Trait direction

Optics for buff coverage; save high-end rerolls for the Physical carry.

Use the trait odds calculator before committing crystals. A mechanically relevant owned trait can be better account value than chasing a rarer headline trait.

Evolution and equipment checks

No reviewed evolution recipe in the current table

The reviewed nine-recipe table does not establish an evolution path for this form. Check the live Evolve panel before collecting unit-specific materials.

No unit-specific match in the reviewed equipment table

Do not assume that absence means “no equipment.” It only means the current 17-item source table has no named exclusive record matched to this unit. Compare live rolls by bottleneck.

Original field protocol

How to test The Hero on your account

  1. 1. Freeze the conditions

    Use the same stage, act, party, upgrade, placement, trait and equipment. Record the game date or visible version.

  2. 2. Measure the kit's real job

    Lock the Physical carry and formation, compare its output before and after the buff, and count how many useful units remain in range.

  3. 3. Keep outcomes separate

    Record personal output, team effect, control, economy and clear consistency as separate fields. One blended score hides why a unit worked.

  4. 4. Repeat and label the sample

    Start with at least 10 matched runs when practical, publish the exact count and retain failures. A small sample is useful when it is honestly labeled.

Sources, confidence and deliberate omissions

The core kit is summarized from Nikola Savic's dated 21-unit passive and active ability reference. The tier signal comes only from the site's July 18 comparison of Pro Game Guides and BO3.

This page deliberately omits unsupported base stats, placement costs, banner odds and universal DPS. The live client is stronger evidence for your current version. If a cited mechanic changes, send the page URL, screenshot or official note through the correction channel.

The Hero quick questions

What role does The Hero play?

The documented profile supports Support jobs and uses a Physical damage classification. The best role depends on which part of the kit your stage and team can activate.

What trait should I use on The Hero?

Optics for buff coverage; save high-end rerolls for the Physical carry. Treat this as a direction and stop rule, not a guarantee that one rare trait is optimal for every account.

Is The Hero top tier?

No two-source consensus claim is published in our current comparison. Rankings are dated judgments; matched tests and current balance notes should decide expensive investment.
