Aidan - Hero Wars Alliance

Aidan hero guide, glyphs, artifacts, skins, best teams, and best counters in Hero Wars Alliance.
Aidan is a healer hero part of the Way of Chaos faction. He is a twin hero with Kayla, which makes them a dangerous combo. One of his special abilities is that he can resurrect Kayla. He is also an excellent addition to heroes who can convert allies' damage into enemy team damage, just like Peppy and Cleaver.
Aside from his synergy with Kayla, he's a great addition to Xe'Sha. Xe'Sha gains a permanent magic attack bonus of 25% of the health sacrificed by Aidan.
Pros
  • Gives the whole team healing benefits
  • A good combination with Kayla allows maximum damage output
  • Sacrifices health which has great synergy for the Way of Chaos faction
Cons
  • Depends on combining with Kayla
  • Low damage dealing
How amusing... I'm the Great Lord of a land that no longer exists - a barren, scorched wasteland that spells death. I was much too young when I was forced to discover the cruelty of fire - and the power of sibling bond... Kayla and I are bound by more than blood, for we share one life between us.

Best Aidan Hydra Teams

Aidan is a great choice against Hydras in combination with Xe'Sha and healer heroes like Martha or such that also provide additional healing, like Mushy & Shroom. He can sacrifice health increasing Xe'Sha's magical damage in time which is great for Hydra battles.

How to counter Aidan in Hero Wars Alliance?

Aidan is a healer hero, positioned at the back line, which has resurrection abilities. He is also one of the heroes with the highest intelligence. To counter him you need to focus on heroes that block these aspects of the hero.
Morrigan
Morrigan

Morrigan's 4th skill, Necromancy, blocks Aidan's 1st skill, Phoenix Ritual, which resurrects Kayla. Morrigan also receives additional Soul Essence charges for each resurrection attempt that can be used to resurrect an ally hero.

Cleaver
Cleaver

Cleaver can pull Aidan to the front line with his Rusky Hook, making him vulnerable to front-line attacks.

Celeste
Celeste

Celeste can block Aidan's healing and convert it to magical damage.

Jorgen
Jorgen

Jorgen can redirect all the damage to the furthest enemy with his 3rd skill, "Leper." Having in mind Aidan is positioned at the furthest position he will be destroyed easily.

Cornelius
Cornelius

Cornelius will target Aidan due to the fact Aidan is one of the heroes with the highest intelligence in the game. Cornelius performs damage proportional to the target's intelligence level, usually enough to kill Aidan in one hit.

Phobos
Phobos

Phobos can steal Aidan's energy and stun him if he's the hero with the highest magic attack in the enemy team.

Jhu
Jhu

Jhu targets the back line where Aidan is positioned. This makes Aidan an easy target to die early in the game.

Heidi
Heidi
Heidi can apply toxins to the opponent whenever they hit or are absorbed by a shieldAidan's shield of allies with lower than 30% health might actually cause damage to the hero it is protecting if Heidi is on the opposing team.
