Alliance at War hero roles

Alliance at War Hero Choice: Ice Witch, Assassin, or Orc

Watch the official Alliance at War hero-choice Short and learn why formation role, position, target access, and timing matter more than appearance alone.

Direct answer

What does this video show?

Choose between hero archetypes by the job your formation needs completed—not by the clip alone. Define whether the team lacks control, protected damage, durability, or target access, then verify the current skill text and test that role.

Short context

This Short frames a fast choice between three fantasy hero archetypes. It is designed to introduce the roster and invite comparison; it is not a tier list and does not establish one universal best hero for every battle.

Turn the visual choice into a formation decision. Ask which unit receives pressure first, which target must be controlled, where damage needs to reach, and whether an important skill survives long enough to activate. The answer may change between campaign progression, defense, and alliance objectives.

Use the hero roles guide to build one readable formation and change one variable at a time. Current balance, skill values, and unlock conditions can change after the Short was published, so confirm them in the live hero screen before investing resources.
