Maple brings a fresh blend of defense, utility, and consistent value to the battlefield. As the Hero of the Month, she’s not the flashiest, but her toolkit offers a lot of reliability — making her a strong candidate for a variety of game modes.
📋 Maple’s Overview & Core Details
Maple’s Details
- Power: 1086
- Element: 🔥 Fire (Red)
- Class: Sorcerer
- Family: Legends 2025
- Aether Power: Damage Reduction
Maple is a legendary hero aligned with the Fire element and belongs to the Sorcerer class. She hails from the upcoming Legends 2025 family, though their specific bonus effects have not yet been revealed. What we do know is that Maple benefits from Aether Power – Damage Reduction, which reduces all incoming damage by 10% for 6 turns. This built-in defense already signals that Maple is designed with survivability in mind.
📊 Maple’s Base Stats, Mana Speed & Passives
Base Stats
- Attack: 1058
- Defense: 1133
- HP: 1957
- Mana Speed: Average
Innate Resistances
- Resist Blind: Innately immune to accuracy-reducing status ailments.
- Resist Buff Immunity: Cannot receive status effects that block new buffs.
Statistically, Maple excels in Defense and HP, making her naturally tanky and ideal for prolonged fights. With average mana speed, she maintains a solid tempo that complements both offensive and defensive team setups.
Her passive resistances are especially valuable. She resists:
- Blind effects (accuracy reduction), which makes her strong against heroes like Grimsteel, and
- Buff Immunity, which protects her from heroes like Guardian Panther who block buffs.
These passives enhance her reliability in matchups where debuffs and control are common.
🍂 Maple’s Special Skill – Autumnal Wind
Special Skill: Autumnal Wind
- Ignores Dodge effects
- Deals 300% damage to 3 random enemies
- Grants all allies +40% chance to dodge damaging Special Skills (3 turns)
- Fire allies gain +20% Attack for 5 turns (Undispellable Elemental Link)
Maple’s skill is called Autumnal Wind, and it offers a smart mix of offensive pressure and defensive support:
- Ignores Dodge: This effect ensures Maple’s attacks will always land, even against heroes with dodge buffs or passives — like Sludgus or heroes from the Magic Carpet family such as Naeem.
- Deals 300% to 3 random enemies: A solid Reaper-style strike that spreads threat across the enemy team.
- Grants Dodge to Allies: All allies gain a 40% chance to dodge damaging special skills for 3 turns. While it can be bypassed by skills that ignore dodge (like her own or heroes like Ixinn), it’s still a decent survivability boost — and noticeably better than older options like Margaret.
- Fire Elemental Link: All Fire allies get +20% attack for 5 turns, and this buff can’t be dispelled, making it valuable in red mono teams or Fire-heavy synergy compositions.
Together, her skill set provides great utility, survivability, and damage, without being overly complex to use.
🛡️ Maple’s Role in Formations & Game Modes
Ideal Positions: Flank or Tank, for both Offense and Defense.
In terms of battlefield positioning, Maple shines in the Flank or Tank slots, where her durability and teamwide buffs can be best utilized. She fits comfortably in both defensive and offensive formations thanks to her balance of survivability and team utility.
For Titan battles, Maple is serviceable, especially if you’re low on stronger Fire attackers. Her Elemental Link can enhance red allies’ performance, and her skill adds a bit of reaper-style chip damage. However, she’s not an optimal Titan hero, especially when compared to high-damage Fire snipers or elemental debuffers.
In Raid Tournaments and Alliance War, Maple performs fairly well in modes like:
- Rush Attack – where her average speed is enhanced
- Bloody Battle – where dodge and survivability are essential
- Buff Booster – where her undispellable Elemental Link gives your team a boost
Still, she’s not a must-have in any mode, and should be used strategically or as a secondary option if you don’t have stronger alternatives.
✅ Final Verdict – Is Maple Worth It?
Maple is a balanced Hero of the Month who brings a reliable mix of offense, defense, and support. She won’t dominate the meta or carry teams solo, but she will:
- Provide consistent utility across most game modes
- Strengthen both mono Fire teams and mixed color compositions
- Act as a safe pick for players who need a durable and flexible red hero
Her ability to ignore dodge, deliver moderate damage, and support allies with evasion and attack buffs makes her a well-rounded choice for mid-to-late game players looking to fill out their roster.
And if there are no significant changes to Maple’s base stats, class, active, or passive skills during the Beta process, then Maple is definitely a Hero of the Month worth having.
