Corvus in Hero Wars

Corvus is a tank hero part of the Way of Eternity faction in Hero Wars Alliance. He can do enormous pure damage to the front line due to his Altar of Souls and decrease enemies' defenses. This makes Corvus the tank dealing the most damage in the game.

He pairs well with his daughter Morrigan, also part of the Way of Eternity faction.

Corvus also can move a teammate into the team's center to protect it.

Pros

Strong synergy with Way of Eternity heroes, especially with Morrigan
Dealing pure damage with his altar
Control skills - move heroes in the team and protect them from dying

Cons

Benefits primary for Way of Eternity heroes
He dies quickly if not paired with the right support heroes
Not easy to go level-up to absolute stars (souls stones available in the Dungeon shop only)

“

Not even death could stop Corvus once and for all. Resurrected by his daughter, he swore to protect the Kingdom of Graven and its new Dominion allies from enemies once more. Woe be to those who cross the path of the King of the Undead!

How to counter Corvus in Hero Wars Alliance?

Corvus is great against AoE damage heroes. For this reason, good counters to him are damage dealers that do single-target damage, like K'arkh, Jhu, Elmir, Astrid and Lucas.

Corvus can also be countered by heroes with high armor penetration that are attacking the front-line.

K'arkh

K'arkh can do high amounts of damage at once, not being targeted by Corvus' altar. He is also enhanced by heroes like Kai and Faceless, which can increase his damage even more.

Faceless

Faceless can push back and stun Corvus and stop him from using his altar.

Fafnir

Dorian

Keira

Even if that Keira is a glass cannon that can die quickly by Corvus' altar, if Dorian is next to her, he can boost her health with his vampirism. This will make Keira survive Corvus's altar and perform ultimates quicker until the enemy team is defeated.

Fafnir can also be a great addition, supporting Keira by activating his Runic Shield.

Dante

Dante can push back and decrease Corvus' altar damage with his Shackles of Weakness skill. It will decrease Corvus's primary stat by 7.0 seconds.

Qing Mao

Qing Mao targets the front line where Corvus is positioned. She can constantly hit Corvus, blind him, and reduce his armor with every attack.

Ishmael

Ishmael can dodge physical attacks and stun the opponent in front of him. This makes Corvus attacks uncertain as well as a target of stun effects.

Dorian

Daredevil

Elmir

Daredevil and Elmir have high armor penetration, quickly destroying the front line and leaving Corvus unused. You can also use Astaroth as a tank in this team because he has no AoE damage.
