Dark Elves

Krakarth earns a 3.2/5.0 rating because he is a highly effective specialist who lacks the universal versatility required for a higher score. His strengths lie in his exceptional damage mitigation and his ability to lockdown targets with Provoke, which makes him an A-Tier asset in Arena Defense. However, his score is held back by his vulnerability to buff strippers and 'ignore defense' mechanics, which are prevalent in the current meta. While he outperforms many average Epics in survivability, he doesn't offer the turn-meter control or heavy debuffs that would push him into the S-Tier category.
