I was giving them the benefit of the doubt on the first day, but now we’ve had 3 days where he’s had no teammates to showcase his yellow. Hopefully days 4 and 5 are better planned. How’d that work out for you today ? Ha, like everyone already mentioned earlier, I think they failed day 4 also. Luckily his PvP is giving me some idea of how his yellow works. But I’m still hoping the final day of Introducing has him fully covered with teammates. What I noticed in his PvAI, if his two teammates have their strongest colors as passive powers it’s useless and actually a liability as it removes them for one turn with no benefit . There’s a long list of teammates his yellow won’t support

HoundofShadow said: Valkyrie and MEH are his allies in the last day node. However, the enemies' levels are too low. His Introducing... event is indeed a meh.

There’s a long list of teammates his yellow won’t support Not quite. You just need to have some use for the ap, whoever it is. So bringing professor X is actually quite good, because the blue will fuel Heimdall, even if it is useless for X. Bottom line is that like all "strongest color"-based powers/characters, it pays to keep the strongest color in mind when building teams and choosing opponents.

[...] I found myself balancing using Heimdall's blue to double up the ap gain from a match 3 (fortifying all 3 tiles, then matching it) vs leaving the fortifications in play for AP discounts. In the PVP, it's more useful to make the match and earn the AP since at 1/1/1 it takes 2:1 for fortification.

Each cast is self-sustaining if you fortify all 3 tiles in a blue match. It also turned the power in a 1:1 ap arbitrage engine. That sounds pretty useful.

supergarv said: The fourth node of his event is also a total failure.Who designed his event? It makes memad. You should encourage players wanting a character, and showcase his strengths. You are castrating him on a solo team and with spamming enemies. We can‘t even see his yellow power after 4 days of the event!I cannot believe how this passes getting released. Thinking of a useful team and enemies would take any player here maybe 10 minutes. This is offendingly bad.phew. Needed to get this out of my system.They should rename the event to „Introducing.... Heimdull“.
Polares said: I think this is probably the first 5 char in a while really worth getting, and it is of course because of his blue. Powers like this one are extremely rare and I am sure at some point it will be "exploited" in some very bonkers/op combination.
