Empires & Puzzles Fated Summon March 2024 Complete Guide Who Should You Choose?..if u have to🤔🫣

[@burritopancho]

I've chosen MN but I'd definitely grab GP as well in the future. Athena seems OK but I had Toon Magny and Grimm already. Thx for your great videos!!!

[@mollyvilakazi]

I need a hero with Revive, so this video was very helpful. Thank you.

[@AuntieAGV]

Earlier I got this choices too. I choose Mother North as I need better green heroes for the war.

[@wesman6445]

I thought these heroes were trash too. I also always wanted Guardian Panther. So far I got her and Santa. Most likely i will be collecting these heroes just for the next soul exchange.

[@Kenneth_R]

All these heroes are outdated obviously for higher end play and it is very very unethical for small giant to show you the maximum power preview of heroes with the costume bonuses when they do not include the costumes at all. Very very sour. With costumes a lot of these heroes are actually excellent but not without.

[@nathanhill7233]

I know these heroes aren't great anymore, but I'm going to put Mother North with costume Guardian Gazelle.

[@yuxuan130411]

None of the fated hero is worth more than their ascension materials. SG already sentenced death for fated as they keep pumping out 1000+ power metas( with less than 1% pull rate)

[@FoxPandaTV]

I send all of them to SE then they show up in fated summon

[@gregorywyatt2361]

Even though I have Cheshire Cat leveled with one limit break. And Sergei is leveled with emblems and double limit broken. I always wanted g. Panther and now I have her. I'm probably going to be able to grab one more. And that will be Athena. Hope your feeling better. And thanks again for giving the people an honest review. We appreciate you.

[@McNaultyYT]

All good and well thanks Greg and Grats on panther the dispell alongside the EDD makes her viable outside of titans too so she should see some use plus its actually nice that she doesn't hit hard enough to suicide herself on CAttack if that's what u need to dispell. I'll be choosing Athena next too 💪😉

[@sheilarolack7477]

My first pick was MN because she's good and I've always wanted her

[@antonychen7418]

I think this round of FS is actually better than the last round. A few members of my alliance already grabbed Panther. I'll be grabbing her shortly after I do a 10 pull in the Birthday summon. Yellow titans have always been challenging for us. We'll be a bit better in a few months.

[@theblogchaincrypto9374]

Hello McNaulty hope your well, love your videos, great insight to the game very transparent and honest opinion to the game.

[@McNaultyYT]

Thanks M8 really appreciate that! Glad u find the videos helpful 😊👍🍻

[@arturobroncos6991]

Nice review. I picked mother north first mainly bcs I had cleric emblems and for the next pick can't decide between panther or athena

[@McNaultyYT]

Thanks Arturo MN is a solid pick. As for the Panther Athena Dilemma it's tricky either is a good choice maybe ull be able to get both before the time is over 😅🤞

[@arturobroncos6991]

​@@McNaultyYTyeah hopefully I will get them both before I get nuts 😅.. thanks

[@bmcm1980]

Going for the badass panther as well. Athena is good even without costume (but I already got her), and then.... well mother northe just for nostalgia.

[@McNaultyYT]

She is a badass hero 4 sho. Athena will be my next pick. If I didn't have MN she would be 1000% still a rush superstar!

[@sktrudel]

Minimum would be to offer at least one costume with the hero

[@cilla-brittkettunen9410]

Well bros, here is also free2play people around. Been playing for 1 y. and got Shacklebolt during christmas with 1 coin😊. I have CosOdin, Leonidas and Frida, which I picked last fated summon. Now I'm going closer to pick a free summon again. For us this is like christmas again😅 I can't decide between Albreicht or MN (don't have 5*green) and/or that darn Guardian panther because of you 😊

[@guerrillapi]

Christmas new years valentines and spring break. Not even a year in just best the dark lord tonight and just happened to notice I'm 10 pulls away. But I made a promise no spending and I'm going to wait until April to spend all coins I have built up then. But once I get my pulls in I'm going GP.

[@georgesteele3888]

To be fair it is the best one I have seen since I started playing.

[@yuxuan130411]

But you have to factor in the situation that metas are moving faster and faster. That makes fated summon fall behind even more.

[@georgesteele3888]

​@yuxuan130411 true, but so many usable hero's there. Tons of defense downs for Titan teams, niche specials for certain war attack teams... every other summon has been just garbage for soul exchange. Nice for a change to have usable hero's even if they are not for regular fighting.

[@milodemoray]

Athena's defense down goes all the way to -68%. I use Sun Shangxiang the red 4* from Wo3K who does the same, and is also at average speed. That defense down is awesome, particularly if it is paired with either damage increase, and or attack up. Note, you can easily push that negative defense up to maximum if you include a minion summoner. I picked Athena because I needed another max defense down hero on 3 targets.

[@Gofastgoloud771]

Question ..how do u preview a heroes max stats from the hero roster..I mean one of my own heros..can I look at max stats as well as the base stats?

[@McNaultyYT]

You can only preview max stats on the portals you can preview maxed stats of costumes in your inventory system in game but for other heroes I would have a quick look on the forum if u wanna know their max stats. Hope that helps 👍 😉

[@Gofastgoloud771]

@@McNaultyYT yes sir Ty so much

[@michaelstinson7610]

The only thing this is good for is getting heros just for the sake of having them. I'm only missing 2, almost all the others only made it to 3/70 even with costumes. G. Panther excepted, of course. I use her with Aramis.

[@aimfuldrifter]

Santa is definitely not the worst but not good either. He could be useful for newcomers in rush with that strong debuff.

[@Gack74]

I've chosen MN. Thinking what to choose for the next heroes for the next replacement.

[@McNaultyYT]

Nice! Can't go wrong with the old Biddy 😅 she'll serve u well.

[@snowlothar45]

When a game lets you buy heros, it has no skill and is nearing its end. This game is officially broken.

[@McNaultyYT]

Strangely they have only once let u Actually buy a hero outright. Funny thing is there are actually a ton of successful gatchas that sell heroes. In E and Ps case it is the power creep that is outta controll. A basic stat reset would solve 99% of the games issues. It will never happen but that's just the devs greed and the nature of the Zynga beast.

[@ruqayyaabdus-salaam4724]

Guardian Panther and Mother North are the only ones I'd consider... I've wanted Guardian Panther for a long time and I HATE Mother North. I always take her out first on any opposing team. So annoying. Gah! But now that I'll have her too, she won't be so bad, hehehe...The rest is meh.

[@McNaultyYT]

😂Good choices. I hate MN too but only when she's on the other team😂😂

[@chairultansa1296]

Hello McNaulty sorry your know Next Agust month fated summon hero?

[@hobowithasmartphone6387]

Took Guinevere dup because I have her costume and she is good in wars, will take G. Panther for titans and then I don't think I need anything more. I already have many of those heroes

[@ikegoodluck4665]

I picked GP last month…wanted her for over 7 years ..finally got her for my titan attack … today I will pick MN… she’s been on my wish list forever

[@McNaultyYT]

Nice choices 👌 definitely the best 2 from this list.

[@gregkaye5583]

Yeah, I'm probably also going to pick purp (not pink) panther. This is despite also having c Seshat and a leveled Domitia who both also have a hit and dispel function, but it's one that I like and I think is fun, I would otherwise have gone for Athena but I've got a list of Rangers vieing for those emblems while I've fighter emblems to spare. I also already have a blue healer just in the form of Susuna, but it's the titan terrorizing def down of Panther that sells. 💜 If, after you've made a hundred pulls, can you predict who you'd take next?

[@McNaultyYT]

Hey Greg 👋 good 2 c ya! Yep for me next pick will be Athena but aside from her and Panther I am not really excited about any of the others. If I didn't have MN I'd grab her too.

[@gregkaye5583]

@@McNaultyYT I've still been sitting on my hundred pulls for fated summons waiting for costume chamber to come out before the "no fate but what you make". Luckily costume chamber does not count for pulls in contributing to fated summons (though each costume counts as a pull in path of adventure) so I got straight on with 9 pulls (of a potential 24) and got Domitia following Wu Kong (I mentioned interest in titan hits) and Kaliani. I really wanted g panther but, when I could now level unlimited copies of the Dom girl, also with having c Seshat in my world, perhaps panther would take the dispel function to overkill, I still think I'll be waiting for soul exchange before deciding on a first fated summons pick in this 6 months. I don't have Mother North but I'm currently levelling Sha Wujing who will likely take my green spot in war defence. Guardian panther still has an appeal, but the practical bit of that, titan potential, is covered by Domitia's c2. so I'll probably go for Athena then MN.

[@MasterTMO]

I was severely underwhelmed when I opened up this Fated board the first time. Let's see if you can change my mind at all....

[@MasterTMO]

You did not. :P I grabbed Guinevere, will pull King Arthur next. I have Lady of the Lake limit broke, but no costume. So if I level either of them up, I can at least get a family bonus sometimes.

[@McNaultyYT]

Yup... clearly not my intention to change minds, I'm not a fan of polishing turds 💩💩💩

[@iqplusbirdfarm3547]

What about santa rating ... Because i dont have red b5....i chose that or panther

[@McNaultyYT]

Hi 👋 thanks for your question. I'm not a huge fan of Santa tbh he hasn't aged well. U might find a use for him in rush or as a def down option against nature titan but otherwise not a great deal he's good 4 Panther u will use a lot more her dispell and Elemental def down are better skills and at fast speed 😉 hope that's helpful

[@s_verm]

With costumes included, this would be a really nice list. Without costumes, it really shows the fast pace of released heroes with their ever increasing stats. As I currently have neither EDD in dark nor a reviver at all, I picked Panther first and if I get to 100 again will pick MNorth. Will have more often use for that elemental def down that a revive... At least I hope so! XD

[@McNaultyYT]

Strongly Agree! Either include some costumes or some half decent heroes that are maybe 2 years or older without costumes but not 2017! 🤣 thanks for the comment SV 👍👍👍

[@3ko-games]

Amen, my friend! Garbage. I don’t pull so much that I have 20 5*s easily, so SE fodder is fine I guess.

[@cimerians]

I always had this question: if I keep my 100 pulls and wait for the next refresh which is 49 days from today do I lose it? ie does it reset? If so I guess I should pick one right now, if not I'm will wait till the next refresh because these selections, other than MN, is pretty weak.

[@McNaultyYT]

You won't loose your 100 pulls so if ur OK with heroes from this group you can wait for the next one 😉 I'm with you this FS list was probably the worst we have had. Hopefully they step it up in 49 days 🤞🤞🤞

[@cimerians]

@@McNaultyYT Thanks for answering, you are ever so helpful, I will keep the 100 and wait. 👍

[@McNaultyYT]

No worries 👍 I'm waiting too 😉

[@rsternfels]

I don't think it's bad for FS, better than last time, but I agree it should be reworked, the whole second row is 2017 heroes. Having said that I have been trying to get Alberich for a long time. I have just about all the other revivers. If I didn't, I'd go for MN. I had wanted Athena but would rather costume.

[@McNaultyYT]

True though both of the last 2 have been very dissapointing and for many players it's their only chance at getting a five star every 6 months 😥 pretty sad really and yep 2017 ain't gonna cut it. Thanks for ur comment 😉👍🍻

[@samphadhavihara4035]

While I agree on the costume aspect of your rant, have to disagree on the heroes list. It's a better one than last time, that had one must have (Frida) and 3 maybes. You listed 2 must haves in Athena and G. Panther, and then a bumch of maybes. Personally, I'm going for Guinevere, but that's because yellow is one of my weak sides and the only two healers I really have are Steropes 4* and that Egyptian 3*. (Do have an unlevelled HotM 5*, but that one's speed is horrendous and makes her useless outside of Rush wars, imnsho.) So Guin at average will be a good replacement, even if her stats make her a tad squishy, still better than the 3* at double LB. 🤷‍♂️ After that... 🤔 Coin toss between Arhena and G. Panther. Athena would synergize with Frida and Toon Richard. Whereas G. Panther would take the spot of either Grimble or Robed Tiberius. Need to ponder that one some more. 🤔 ------ Now if you want something to rant about, what about "lost" summons. I'd reached the 100 mark during the last Goblin Village event. I've done pulls during the Birthday bash, Untold Tales, Dunes, 2 regular epic heroes and I know I'm forgetting a few others. Got Guin and what do I see? My summon score is at 0, despite the other summons that I did and which weren't registered... *at all* so that's something they need to warn players about as well.

[@McNaultyYT]

Thanks for the comments m8 and yep I definitely agree that they should introduce an overflow counter for summons. Still think they could do a LOT LOT better on these lists tho even if it's just enough to give the FTP and newer players a leg up it's still far better than what we have been given for the next 6 months. Based on your heroes I would say Guinevere is viable and far better than those you have levelled for the same Job. If u don't have EDD in Dark id say G Panther is a Must. But if u already have Sergei I would pick Athena next. Also MN is a great pick if u don't have a reviver. Thanks again 👍👍👍

[@theblogchaincrypto9374]

what's your Alliance called by the way ?

[@McNaultyYT]

Crew-jesters

[@chadsamuels6512]

My first thought was that these heros stats were dated and that costumes needed tobe added to the summons. I did have a summon waiting so I took Ares. I am weak in red and he'll replace Sun in my war team when leveled up. Over the next 6 months as i complete summons ill grab in order Guardian panther King Arthur Athena This is because I already have mom and albie already. And don't have spots on war teams for them.

[@ramizceferov1964]

Merheba hansini alim?

[@McNaultyYT]

Hi sorry for the late reply. Depends on your roster but for me Guardian Panther was an easy choice and she is very useful in many areas of the game.

[@leons5981]

Only decent one is mother north really

[@TheNenad4]

Im think to pick Justice for me just becouse I allredy have good legendary heros for rest of four elements and Justice is on my wishlist from the start.

[@McNaultyYT]

Interesting choice, I had her levelled and fed her a long time ago... before SE existed. I Just never found any good use for her outside of Rush War and even in rush- there are way better options

[@gaynor1721]

A mediocre Fated Summons as I suspected it would be. Underwhelmed and disappointed as I had waited for so long to renew in the hopes of getting a better choice than the last one, but I chose Athena, even though I didn't need another blue. I really need another yellow, but I like her defence down. I also like King Arthur, Mother North (I have her costume), Alberich and Guinevere (I have her costume too).

[@ramonlopez2732]

Is all about money bro and the problem is that you waste your money never get what you want 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@abehjhakibuuka71]

I almost didn't watch this video because, for most players, these heroes are garbage!!! I may not pull 150 days. I agree with everything you said, Toon heroes and Panther, Mother North, Athena, Santa, and Guinevere maybe, but to repeat, for the most part, they are garbage. Don't waste your mats and emblems on them.

[@NordCat]

@@NordCat Good choice 👌 👏 👍

[@Twilight_Dawning]

SOOOOO... this is mostly a collection of older old-school OP hereos that were coveted when they were relevant. Still....a couple of valued hereos to choose from. Athena is good, costume better. Guin is still viable but squishy. But probably the 2 best to choose from, if you f2p or light p2p would be Mother North or Guardian Panther definitely. I haven't selected from the fated summons for the last 2, but I chose King Arthur immediately because he always eluded me in summons and I didn't have him. It was him or Santa. I didn't need any dupes of the rest. Some nice hereos but SG still doing us dirty with these weak fated portals.

[@McNaultyYT]

Some "Nostalgia" pulls for us older hands but I really wouldn't mind SG giving Newer players and F2P a nice leg up with these fated pulls just 1 or 2 really good options will open up the playing field a bit more and keep the masses happy 😂 we'll have to wait 6 months to see if they listen but somehow I doubt it...

[@Twilight_Dawning]

@mcnaultyempirespuzzles1429 I didn't answer about Richard and Elena being sold for 10. Honestly, that's not bad considering when you look at it that they are the 2 faces of E&P. It actually kind of makes sense to offer them first (only?). Plus with the trainer hereos and food bundles, your on your way to leveling them. Insult? Maybe, but I see the point.

[@lowtech_1]

Think its better than the last list

[@McNaultyYT]

[@GBass011]

[@helltrain4022]

Clearly the Fated Summons aren’t directed toward the top 1% of the player base. Then the majority of the player base whines because they expect SG to just give out the absolutely best of the best heroes in Fated Summons. I see it as a way for casual players to fill in needs for their roster. Believe it or not, the game is designed for players to actually develop their 3 and 4 star heroes!!!! 5 star heroes are suppose to be a “Holy cow!!!” moment when you pull them. I watch a lot of content creators for this game and their pull videos are cringe. They’ll pull a nice 5 star-at least “nice” to 95+% of the player base, and they act indifferent to it. Players are just too spoiled. Develop your roster, and use the Fated Summons to fill your individual needs. Also there’s a lot of players who think you have to have the costume in order for the hero to be viable. That’s simply not true! Sure, if you’re playing high end PvP, then yeah. But for the overwhelming vast majority of players, they’ll do just fine. I know I do. That’s where team building comes in handy. I know players that have played this game for YEARS that still don’t know how to properly assemble a defense team or teams for titans or for raid wars. And sadly, it’s often those kinds of players that will sit and tell you exactly what’s wrong with the game, or complain that SG doesn’t hand out free OP 5 star heroes. GTFO. 😂

[@McNaultyYT]

Hi Hell Train. Interesting view point but I'm afraid u might have got the wrong end of the stick in a couple areas here buddy, I'm not gonna address them all because it's not worth the time but I'll tackle just 1 for now... maybe come back to the rest of ur wronguns later... 1st of all I need u to think like a developer..If the game is REALLY designed for players to develop their 3 and 4 stars and that is the main aim as you mentioned then WHY are there over 125 5 star heroes in each element and only 30 or so 4s and even less 3s!!?.give up.. Ill tell you why... this is a Gatcha Game it's FTP but designed the way it is to ensure the devs make a profit and to me that seems fine.. that is life afterall but please don't mislead people by saying it's all about 3s and 4s Yes they are your bread and butter heroes but EVEN THEY have costumes that are necessary to pull if you are an end game player or want to match you opponents TP in wars etc. I will stop there but on a side note please keep the comments respectful. Ty

[@helltrain4022]

@@McNaultyYT I disagree wholeheartedly and I believe you mischaracterized the point I was making. I never stated that the “main aim” of the game is focusing on 3-4 star heroes. But yes, hero roster development is an important aspect of the game considering that Alliance and Challenge Events come in three tiers: Rare, Epic, and Legendary. You’ll also find Raid Tournaments that emphasize that very same structure. Tavern of Legends, for instance, also restricts players to only being able to utilize heroes once per event. Since most players have a very limited number of 5 Star heroes, roster development becomes all the more crucial. For these reasons, it is foolish to dismiss the vital role played by the 3-4 star heroes of this game. I also would never advise a player to prioritize 3-4 Star development over development of a 5 star. By all means, if you’re lucky enough to acquire a new 5 star…develop them!! The point I was making in my initial remarks, was not critical of you directly. I actually enjoy watching your videos mostly and have been subbed to your channel for some time. Just in general, I don’t like the pessimistic attitude that the player base has towards Fated Summons. I hear it all the time. “This list sucks.” “These heroes are outdated.” “Without the costumes these heroes are absolutely useless.” And all that may be true for players in the top 1% of competitive play. And I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that the vast majority of those players in the top 1% are spending heaps of money on the game. To that, I say, “To each their own.” But to most players as a whole, they’ll find that the Fated Summons provide them the ability to fill roster needs. And since only a minor percentage of the player base competes in Diamond level raiding, I believe that the Fated Summons provides hero options that even without costumes, are viable in Platinum raids, as well as other aspects of the game such as titans. (Athena, and King Arthur are viable titan options.) Just like how the Soul Exchange isn’t directed to casual players, generally, the Fated Summons aren’t necessarily directed toward the top tier players of the game, and there’s nothing wrong with that. We can agree to disagree. Nothing wrong with that either. It’s not really a question of right or wrong like how you try to make it, just in how we perceive the nature of the game.

[@McNaultyYT]

Hello m8 thanks for clarifying, maybe I just got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning 😅 but that reads a lot differently to me now than the original comment and actually I do agree with what you are saying here. I don't think we need to agree to disagree either as at the meat of it it seems like we've both got the players at heart ❤ I'm just taking the point of view that id love for more casual players to have access to 'better' heroes in the Fated Summons (ie scrap the first row/include a couple costumes I dunno just something a little more special for those who have saved up 100 plus pulls whether they're free or paid) I think most of the whales will have em all already and wouldn't be phased either way and your stance on all the whining that goes on from players with deep rosters when they pull a 5 they don't need & there actually being useful heroes in here is true and valid as you have made clear, casual players shouldn't be disheartened if they don't have the newest shiniest heroes because they are most relevant for PVP content at the top levels and not necessary to complete and even compete in the majority of in game events and challenges as they are tiered with the 4s and 3s being very relevant in these events and even in titans. So with all that being said I appreciate that you took the time to respond and thanks for supporting the channel 👍👍👍👍
