Professor Critic 👨 vs Snake Eyes

[glass hornet]

** Snake Eyes** is an Army hero that can be considered as a support hero for many reasons including the HP Enhancement it provides . His Hostile provides damage reduction for the units while active, this is another reason this hero is considered a support Army hero . Hostile ability is one of a kind ability that only appeared once before with Polik release. Further into this article, you will find out a hidden reason for ** Snake Eyes** to be considered very important as a support hero .

💎 Preparation Skill:

The 50% HP Enhancement that is offered to all Army units is actually one of the highest starting HP offered compared to all army heroes .

Snake Eyes like Polik hero offers Hostility effect. The Hostility offered is worth double compared to Polik’s with a value of 20% per stack . The 20% offered by each stack of the Hostility is actually worth of 20% damage reduction . Since Snake Eyes offers 2 stacks of Hostility to first two rows of Army units, and since the stacks are renewed at every round this means that first two rows of Army units gain 40% damage decrease as long as Hostility stacks are not consumed . This when compared to Polik is actually a huge improvement in terms of both value and ** # units**.

Passive Skill:

The passive skill of this hero is totally dependent on the Hostility ability initiated during the preparation skill . The passive skill is activated as soon as the units hosting the Hostility effect is targeted by either a regular or active attacks. Once the passive skill is activated then one stack of hostility is consumed from the units that had it been activated for and by the same amount . Once the passive skill is activated then one enemy unit is targeted for every consumed hostility stack , which has the lowest HP . The damage of the skill starts by 80% without exclusive skill, and increments to 120% then to 160% with exclusive skills 5 and 7 respectively .

This passive skill is actually a counter attack to enemy attacks of almost all kinds . And the fact that the skill targets the enemy units with the lowest HP is not in vain . The idea behind targeting these units with such high damage is to basically completely eliminate these stacks once their HP downgraded significantly, this hero ability services as stacks cleaners to the enemy units, not the main source of damage. Thus this is the hidden reason that makes this hero a support hero type . To simplify this even further, when Snake Eyes is paired with strong trigger heroes like Gipsy, he will act as the cleaner after Gipsy’s trigger attacks. This will make Gipsy most likely hit full units stacks rather than wasting his trigger damage on stacks with low units in them . For this reason once you use this hero in battle, you won’t see huge damage done from his ability, but rather you would more likely see Gipsy and other trigger heroes’ performance improved and number of rounds per battle decreased for the wins. In short, this hero is not the main damage maker but rather strikes to eliminate and finish fast just like ninjas 🥷 do. One the other hand, this doesn’t stop here as for each stack eliminated by his passive ability the Army units will gain additional 15% damage increase that lasts until the end. This cannot be called but perfect harmony within his ability and supports the claim of this hero being a supporter even further.

In conclusion, as an article based on criticism of a newly released hero, you would expect more of a negative review and less of positive criticism, but this is a hero that is so elegant that even critics stand speechless against .

Note: The exclusive skills levels basic enhancement percentage is not included into the values of the comparisons since all skill provide same percentage at same levels, hence they were omitted from the comparison .

⚠️ One thing that everyone should pay attention to when using Snak Eyes , his skill is not of an active skill type, but rather a passive skill. This means that when equipped with titan gears of special effect that depends on trigger (Active skill), it won’t take an effect whatsoever, thus use your special effects wisely. ⚠️

And asuka with 0 skill
Which 3rd hero should i choose?

[glass hornet]

You can go with Asuka for now until you are able to get Snake Eyes in your march

[elder solstice]

Which is better for support role between Snake Eyes, PO and Asuka?

[glass hornet]

Po doesn’t fall under the support category

I’d say Snake Eyes

But depends on the other heroes as well

[elder solstice]

Other Hero are Gipsy and Striker.

[glass hornet]

Then yes indeed

Snake is your choice

[elder solstice]

Thanks

[supple nimbus]

Hello mr. Professor.
This is my snake eyes with lvl 4 exclusive
And asuka with no skill

Snake eyes not good for world boss?

[quaint oyster]

No🤣

Snake Eyes is PvP only not PvE

[glass hornet]

No not at all, the reason is that Snake Eyes is a counter attack based hero, so for him to trigger he needs to be attacked. And the more he is attacked the more damage he causes. And hence WB is only a single attack per round based battle, it means snake eyes won’t trigger more than 50 times never.
