Arachne in Hero Wars

Arachne is a control hero part of the Way of Progress faction in Hero Wars Alliance. She is known for her jump in the enemy team and stun abilities doing damage simultaneously. Arachne is often used as a control specialist, helping to neutralize key threats in the opposing team while setting up her allies to capitalize on the distrations she made.

Pros

Stuns enemies for 5 seconds
Poisons enemies for 3 seconds
Targets the enemy with the lowest health (usually glass-cannon damage dealers)
Great in different game modes like Outland and Tower
Soul stones available in the early game

Cons

Low physical attack and amount of damage performed in general
Low magic defense

“

There's no trace of humanity left in her: she's a perfect assassin now. Arachne's hypnotic gaze freezes her prey, and her claws tear the unfortunate victim apart.

How to counter Arachne in Hero Wars Alliance?

Arachne's jumping ability makes her vulnerable to heroes that perform damage or apply negative effects on the nearby enemy heroes.

Sebastian

Sebastian can conjure a shield against stun and curse effects which will block Arachne's primary ability to stun.

Nebula

Nebula can remove all negative effects with her 2nd skill, Serenity.

Celeste

Celeste can block Arachne's healing with her 3rd skill, Limbo. She will also remove all negative effects from her ally heroes. Celeste also targets the nearest enemy with her 2nd skill, White Night, which can be Arachne if he jumps to the enemy team.

Andvari

Andvari's 4th skill, Nature's Barrier, can activate a shield to protect the hero with the lowest armor from physical attack. Considering Arachne targets the hero with the lowest health (a glass cannon), Andvari might protect this hero with the shield making Arachne's attacks useless.

Jorgen

Jorgen can block nearby enemies from gaining energy. Arachne might be standing in her usual position or being the closest enemy when she jumps. In both cases, her energy gain will be blocked.
