Empires & Puzzles - Analytical view of Kadilen and Kadilen Costume in War Defense

[@lunajdavid]

This is an amazing video! You should share this on the E&P forums! Loving these analysis videos. I’m excited to watch the rest of them! Keep up the great work 🥳🥳🥳

Hi Lunajdavid, and thanks for watching. More coming your way soon as I try to catch up with the backlog of everything I want to share with you all. It is on the forums, I created a thread in there for individual heroes. Every time I put out a new one I'll drop the link in there. Thanks again for stopping by and taking the time to comment.

Excellent video!

Thank you Vlad, I'm glad you are enjoying them!

good idea doing the comparison between a regular and a costume version! I guess one reason why the regular version is doing worse than the costume is that regular version often does not have the Costume bonus? I do believe that the costume version would still be better, but maybe not as much better if you compared it to regular+CB. Although I assume that regular+CB would have rather low occurrence rates...

[@ssnakepitgaming]

Bang on G Pac, I think you are correct on all accounts. Very few people use regular Kadilen with costume bonus when they can use the dodge version. Would it have made much difference with a costume bonus? Perhaps. Maybe not though.

[@nevarmaor]

LOL of course C.Kadilen is better. I don't have the costume. I've never considered Kadilen for defense but maybe on flank for Arrow Barrage? I will need to see Lianna's breakdown before deciding. Will you also be breaking down the individual healers?

[@ssnakepitgaming]

Yeah, there was a smidgeon of sarcarsm when I alluded that there might actually be some debate on who is better between the 2 kadilens. Yes, individual healers coming shortly. I'm working on one right now.

[@lunajdavid]

How do you use C.Kadilen on offense? Who do you pair her with? Which defending heroes do you typically attack with C.Kad? She can’t seem to fit into any of my attack teams…damage is too low and her dodge is o.k….I’d love to hear your thoughts!

[@ssnakepitgaming]

I actually don't even have C.Kadilen as the costume has evaded me ever since it came out. On offence though, it makes sense that you would bring her out more against a team that is loaded up on direct damage hitters so her special can be useful. I'd avoid using her with counter attack heroes as you'd want those hits to actually land rather than miss, and Guardian Gazelle is not a good pairing either as she will wipe the dodge buff away from allies or prevent it if she gets them dancing first. Of course, this all comes down to colour distribution on the defending team which should also determine whether you would even bring a green to the fight. I get a sense from you that you're not keen on C.Kad on offense so far or perhaps you've not used her either and want to know more, but depending on how deep your bench is, she may or may not have a place on your attack teams. I wish I could offer more on the subject but by not having her, I don't feel I'm in a good position to say she's good or not. Perhaps another viewer might chime in on this one that has experience with C.Kad on offense. I'm always obsessed with defense but you've got me curious about her offensive use too. Thanks for the comment and I hope to have more content for you soon!

[@lunajdavid]

@@ssnakepitgaming Thanks for an extremely thorough answer! I’m even more excited for your future videos now!

[@scottlaughland598]

Is there ever a time when you might use both heroes for the double debuff on special attacks?

[@ssnakepitgaming]

Hey Scott, fantastic question. To be honest, I have not seen anyone using both at the same time. I think the biggest danger to doing this is that it opens yourself up to an attacker that can stack reds against your two greens.

[@ticopmotta]

Hi!!! Could you análise Xnolphod and Bera? Thanks

[@ssnakepitgaming]

Hello Antonio! Bera is coming soon and I'll follow up with Freya as well because there is always a big debate about which is better. As for Xnol, I have limited data on him because I wrapped up version 1 of my study before he became prominent like he is now. I will get you the analysis for him, but I feel I need more data to represent him properly. But it will come!
