Iris - Hero Wars Dominion Era

Iris hero guide, glyphs, artifacts, skins, best teams, and best counters in Hero Wars Dominion Era.
Iris is a mage hero positioned in the back line in the Hero Wars Dominion Era. Iris is a great choice if you want to destroy enemy tanks that lack much armor/health.
Iris is suitable for both physical attack and magic attack teams. Even if she's a damage dealer she should not be considered the main damage dealer of the team.
Pros
  • A great support to take out tanks if you lack enough damage
  • Deals both pure and physical damage
  • Useful in Arena and Grand Arena
  • Can be used both in offense and defense

 

Cons
  • Can be obtained during a special event
  • No control effects
  • Not a good choice against Boss Fights
  • Low health which makes her an easy target
Gifted and audacious in equal measure, Iris used to teach rookie sorcerers the art of magic, but her students' unequivocal adoration could never sate her ambitions. In her pursuit of the arcane, she stole the ancient Umbra tome from the Archdemon's private library - only to end up trapped within the book for years to come. Released at last and forever bound to the dark arts, Iris has emerged as a warlock!

How to counter Iris in Hero Wars Dominion Era?

Rufus
Rufus
Rufus can only be killed by physical damage. This makes Iris useless when faced in the arena.
Cornelius
Cornelius

Cornelius attacks the enemy with the highest intelligence. He performs damage proportional to the target's intelligence level, usually enough to kill Iris in one hit. He also increases his teammate's magic defense.

Yasmine
Yasmine

Yasmine will be damaged by Iris's "familiar" creature. This will cause Yasmine to strike back at the hero who did damage to her - in this case - Iris.

Keira
Keira
A classic blender team with Keira, Sebastian, Nebula, and Jet should be able to handle Iris pretty well.
Dante
Dante
Dante can kill Iris with one strike.
Jhu
Jhu
Jhu can be used if Iris is positioned at the last position. He can also be used in combination with Cleaver which will also target the back line with its hook.
Alvanor
Alvanor
Alvanor can protect his team from Iris's basic attacks with his first skill.
K'arkh
K'arkh
K'arkh targets three heroes with the lowest health, just like Iris. He can usually take Iris with just one hit.

Iris Pet Priority

Oliver can increase Iris's health which is essential for her 1st skill.

Albus and King Biscuit will increase Iris's magic attack, boosting her 3rd skill and basic attacks.
