Kingdom Rush Vengeance (Steam) Impossible Hero Challenge - Back to the Rotten Forest Heroic

This was a challenging map, but unlike the campaign mode it falls more on the fun side of the challenging spectrum.  I kind of like heroic or iron modes that challenge you right out of the gate by throwing a large enemy at you, which this map does by making you deal with Bone Carriers in wave 1.  As usual, a Shadow Archer with insta-kill is the prescription for the problem, but then they up the ante in wave 5 with several more Bone Carriers.  It's a fun challenge balancing a build that can take down a large number of heavies, but also deal with the filler waves in between.

Impressions

This one was much easier than campaign mode (which is always disappointing for a heroic mode).  As such, we only have a few non-'A's.  Oloch takes a 'C' as usual as his magical DPS just isn't what the doctor ordered against so many magically-resistant enemies.  Mortemis gets a 'B' for similar reasons, but his additional strengths bump him up a grade.  Finally, Veruk takes a 'B' for just being poor at DPSing overall.  Other than that, 'A's all around.

Final Grades

  • Veruk - B
  • Asra - A
  • Oloch - C
  • Margosa - A
  • Mortemis - B
  • Tramin - A
  • Jigou - A
  • Beresad - A
  • Doom Tank SG-11 - A
  • Jun'pai - A
  • Eiskalt - A
  • Murglun - A
  • Jack O'Lantern - A
