Analysis of the New Hero: Galahad
Galahad is an archer hero with abilities that combine support and damage, focusing on increasing the resilience of allied troops while dealing additional damage to the enemy. His abilities excel in protecting and strengthening his forces, while he also applies pressure on the enemies.
Skill 2 - Stay Focused
Type: Status Skill
Effect: Galahad is immune to the Disarm effect and has a 50% chance per round to launch +1 normal attack.
Analysis: This skill provides a significant advantage by ensuring that Galahad never loses his ability to attack due to Disarm, a common effect on archers. Additionally, the chance of performing an extra attack per round increases his overall damage output, making him more effective in extended battles.
Skill 5 - Mindful Shooting
Type: Additional Attack
Effect: After a normal attack, there is an 80% chance to deal -60% damage to 1 random enemy squad within range.
Analysis: Mindful Shooting focuses on weakening enemies. After a normal attack, there is an 80% chance to reduce the damage of a random enemy by 60% within range. This is useful for mitigating enemy damage, making Galahad a hero of control and support, especially against high-damage opponents. The skill activates frequently, as it only depends on Galahad’s normal attacks, and with a range of 3, it can affect a good portion of the enemies.
Skill 8 - Pixie Bloodline
Type: Status Skill
Effect: When Galahad’s troop power falls below 50%, all friendly squads enter Guard status, reducing damage taken by 80%. Every time allies take damage, they deal 350% physical damage back to the attacker for 2 rounds.
Analysis: This skill provides an extremely strong defense when Galahad and his troops are at a disadvantage. It reduces incoming damage by 80% and provides a significant retaliatory strike (350% physical damage) to enemies that attack his allies. This makes Galahad not only a great source of resistance but also an excellent hero for counter-attacks, especially in tough battles.
Summary
Galahad is an archer hero with tank and support characteristics, offering:
Resilience: Immunity to Disarm and the Pixie Bloodline skill protect his team during critical moments.
Additional Damage: Extra attack chances and the ability to weaken enemies with Mindful Shooting increase his impact on the battlefield.
Control and Counter-Attack: His ability to protect allies and retaliate with Pixie Bloodline makes Galahad ideal for sustaining his team and punishing enemies that attack.

Galahad: Acts as the tank and protector, with resilience and support abilities such as immunity to Disarm and the Pixie Bloodline skill, which protects allies and deals damage to enemies who attack them.
Sakura: Focuses on massive damage and action acceleration, with Shin Swirling Sakura dealing significant area damage early on, and Mannsennraika and Sannrennsoukatui providing damage bonuses to allies and debuffs to enemies. She amplifies the team’s offensive power.
Henry II: Focuses on targeted damage and control, with skills like Spear of the Dynasty dealing repeated damage and Self-Salvation silencing enemies and stealing their resistance, weakening them. His Plantagenet skill increases damage against specific targets.
