Magic Chess: GoGo/Heroes
How to use Franco
One hook decides most of Franco's fights. Hook Shock pulls the furthest enemy, usually a back-line carry, into your front line, shields Franco, and then hits everyone around him. A carry dragged out of position dies fast, which makes him worth more than his damage suggests.
He casts slowly. His Mana Cap of 100 is the highest of any 3-Gold hero; he starts at 80, so the first hook comes soon, but a second one is rare. His 2-Star HP is second at his cost, so he lasts until it lands. Give him the Dauntless shield and a Defender or two beside him.
He counts for Kishin and Dauntless, and four of our comps put him in the front: Kishin/Stargazer, Marksman/Dauntless, Echomancer and SPECTRE to Alpha. Dauntless gives every ally a starting shield and Dauntless heroes far more, which keeps him up until the hook. Two-star him early in any of those boards; he holds his slot into the late game.
Synergies
Franco counts toward these 2 synergies. Field enough members of one together and its bonus switches on.
KishinYou get a piece of Kishin-only equipment and all Kishin heroes gain Hybrid DEF. Buying Kishin heroes again from the shop upgrades that gear — up to Arcane (Tier 3) through the shop, and all the way to Supreme (Tier 4) once 10 Kishin heroes are active. Each shop upgrade refills the slot with another hero.
DauntlessEvery ally starts the fight with a shield; Dauntless heroes get a much bigger one.
