Feel the powercreep. [16]
Here is a speed chart from mid 2019:
Once upon a time, there was only a few speed contesters above 120.
Excluding Kayron, the fastest were A.Cidd and Celeste, 128.
See what we get recently:
Ran 129
C.Lilias 121
Peira 128
Not that the game becomes faster so new heroes have to be fast to make sense.
The game doesn't speed up, the speed limit is still 129, the devs just make those heroes plain win the speed game. That's all.

Complaining about fast units is the wrong answer to your perceived problem. The idea that they would never add any more heroes to the 120+ club is ridiculous, as of the 18 units in that club, only 5 or 6 now, or ever have been, considered "meta". And even then only a couple right now are even considered "toxic". Your complaint is with their kits, so argue about their kits. Arguing about their speed is next to irrelevant.
Please read the P.S.
Yeah, I thought they were more aware of Spd dominance and ER being crap but then they started releasing more high Spd units and heroes with high Eff and ignore-ER mechanics.
That's also why cleansers are so bad. They have tremendously less spd while all these high spd units have CR boosts or extra turns. The only hero that can potentially keep up with this is Achates but her ER is too low.
In short:
Debuff defender needs to have +100 Resistance to work, sacrifacing other stats.
Same goes for C.Lilias:
She only needs to build speed and some HP/eff. To kill her, you need more speed, crit chance, crit damage, attack.
Laughing in bruiser
Should have saved Mystics
I agree
I laughed so hard at this hahhaahahhaa. Why did I hear your voice suddenly when I read your comment? xD
QlevBe proud of not being a meta slave!
I would actually be really happy to see that roster, as Cilias is so easily countered by Pyllis when they don't have other debuffers.
Speed alone doesn’t mean much, it depends on their kit.
Take Basar as an example, during his prime he was still a relatively slow hero, but people were running him fast due to his kit, you could have thrown the same gear on Kayron but wouldn’t have been near as effective.
That was supposed to be Basar's saving grace. He has only 108 or 109 base spd so his strength was justified because it was hard to get first turn unless your spd gears are excellent. Even without Hyufine he'd be a dead unit because there are many much faster heroes than him now. Ironically, they do more than he did in his prime thanks to extra turns(Peira, Ran, Cilias).
NeriThis, so much this. Not only do they have bloated stats, but also skillsets.
The prime definition off full blown power creep where the former hero becomes not just slightly but completely obsolete.
P.S. This is merely one aspect of powercreep that gets horrendous lately.
