Thalazaar 💖 (Poll and Discussion)

[Coltraz]

@Coltraz

Hands down the worst release of the year, and honestly, maybe one of the worst mythics ever. Thalazaar is basically an Auraleus without any of the good parts.

• Mediocre speed with no real survivability. The DEF boost under 50% HP does nothing, it still gets one shotted by almost anything
• Second form nearly as strong as awakened, which makes the awakened form feel like wasted cost
• Weak Secret Skill. Instant LINK RAW is extremely limited, and let’s be honest, nobody uses the SS on Arachno for a reason
• Adverse Smash has terrible damage output
• Plasma Blast and Energy Blast have TU that is far too high. Auraleus at least has stun converter to chain turns, but here you are forced to hurt your own monster just to charge
• Siren Immunity is nice on paper, but still leaves it vulnerable to repulse and knockback. Its attacks are awkward too, most often forced to hit 2 enemies or all
• Awkward 40 to 50% HP window. No attack boost active, but also cannot use Adverse Smash yet, leaving it stuck in limbo

Current Placement: Dead Slots

This release feels like it could have been a Super Epic and nobody would have been surprised. The design looks great, but the skillset is clunky, the survivability is nonexistent, the TU costs are far too high, and the passive makes little sense.

My analysis after getting it today.
