Alvanor - Hero Wars Alliance

Alvanor hero guide, glyphs, artifacts, skins, best teams, and best counters in Hero Wars Alliance.
Alvanor is a support hero that is part of the Way of Nature faction. He is a good counter to physical damage teams. He is an excellent combination with nature heroes like Mushy and Shroom, Mojo, and Dark Star due to his synergy. Alvanor can often be used as a tank because of his protective skills.
He can also be great at destroying mages at the front line because of his ability to slow down near enemies. His combination with Mushy and Shroom can be great for beating the Satori teams.
In addition, he has the unique feature of absorbing 100% damage absorption from basic attacks.
Pros
  • Absorbs physical attacks with a shield that is always active for nature heroes
  • Has healing skills, which can be a plus in defensive teams
  • It can be used in both magical and physical teams
Cons
  • A defense rather than attacking hero
  • Vulnerable to mages like Xe'Sha and Lilith
  • It takes time to level up to an absolute start (requires titan skin stones expenditure)
  • Healing is not that great compared to classic back line healers
Alvanor lay in slumber in an age-old shrine for thousand of years, waiting to be summoned to battle yet again. As he slept, he had a vision of sacred groves aflame in demonic fire, the putrid stench of the undead emanating from the ancient burial sites, and the triumphant roar of orcs over the battlefield. Alvanor unsealed the rune-covered gates and rushed out ti save his people once more.

Mushy and Shroom
Mushy and Shroom

Mojo, Alvanor, and Mushy and Shroom are a meta combination with great synergy.

Alvanor helps Mushy and Shroom to activate her shrooms quickly, and her shroom creates additional shrooms and keeps the opponents silenced all the time.
Mojo helps Mushy and Shroom gain energy faster so she can activate more shrooms. This can result in keeping opponents silent for most of the game.

Best Alvanor Hydra Teams

Alvanor can be a reasonable choice when battling Hydra due to his healing abilities. Even if he is not considered a meta hero for beating Hydra in one shot, he can help Way of Nature teams deal significantly more damage by keeping them alive.

How to counter Alvanor in Hero Wars Alliance?

Alvanor is a support hero positioned at the front line, which has healing abilities. He is also the hero with the highest intelligence and is often used in the middle line when combined with Way of Nature heroes. To counter him you need to focus on heroes that block these aspects of the hero.

Corvus
Corvus
Corvus' altar is an excellent counter to Alvanor's AoE magic damage activated with his 3rd skill, Rune of Fire, and with his 1st skill, Runes of Ice.
Cornelius
Cornelius

Cornelius will target Alvanor because he's the hero with the highest intelligence in the game. Cornelius performs damage proportional to the target's intelligence level, usually enough to kill Alvanor in one hit.

Xe'Sha
Xe'Sha
Lilith
Lilith
Xe'Sha and Lilith are targeting middle-line heroes. This makes Alvanor a perfect target when used with Mushy & Shroom due to his positioning in the middle line.
Rufus

Celeste
