Unlike standard cards, you generally only select one hero per deck, making that choice the most critical decision you will make.

Some commanders excel at bolstering massive swarms, while others act as unkillable, singular forces of nature.

The Bruiser/Tank Class

Their active abilities usually involve a self-heal, a massive temporary shield, or a devastating close-range area attack.

When playing a tank commander, your strategy relies on building a massive, slow-moving 'deathball' of troops.

• The 'Golden Knight' archetype excels at dashing through swarms.
• Charge their soul-meter before activating.
• Never send the hero in blind.

The Backline Tacticians

These commanders usually sit safely behind your towers, picking off enemy troops from a massive distance.

When kept alive, a ranged hero can generate absurd amounts of positive elixir trades over the course of a match.

Choosing Your Leader

Ultimately, the best hero is the one that perfectly complements your natural tendencies and preferred deck type.

Lead your troops with confidence, and victory will follow.
