Unleashing the Power of Oya: A Guide to Dominating with the New Hero in Hero Wars Alliance

Introduction:

The arrival of Oya in Hero Wars Alliance has stirred up uproar among players, and for good reason. This formidable addition to the Nature faction brings with her a unique set of skills that can turn the tide of arena battles. In this guide, we'll delve into strategies on how to harness Oya's abilities effectively to counter top meta teams and emerge victorious.

Understanding Oya's Abilities:

Oya's kit is designed to disrupt enemy formations and empower allied heroes, particularly those who excel at dealing critical damage. Let's break down her abilities:

Shield Breaker: Oya's first ability deals damage to the nearest enemy, with additional damage inflicted on all marked enemies. Notably, shielded enemies are particularly vulnerable to Oya's attacks, as they take increased damage. This ability also grants Oya energy if she eliminates an enemy with it.
Hunting: With Hunting, Oya marks an enemy as her "prey" and draws them towards her. Any attack on the marked target results in the burning of their energy. This ability not only sets up Oya for subsequent attacks but also weakens the targeted enemy, making them easier to eliminate.
Overwhelming: Oya's third ability showcases her agility and ferocity as she unleashes a series of quick strikes on her foes. With each successive hit, the damage inflicted on the enemy increases. Additionally, enemies positioned behind the main target also suffer from the skill's damage, making it a potent tool for damaging multiple opponents simultaneously.
Brutal Onslaught: This passive ability reinforces Oya's role as a support hero for critical damage dealers. Whenever an allied hero deals critical damage or breaks an enemy shield, they receive healing. Furthermore, allied Nature heroes benefit from an increased bonus, enhancing their effectiveness in battle.

Effective Strategies for Utilizing Oya:

Now that we've familiarized ourselves with Oya's abilities, let's explore some strategies for maximizing her impact on the battlefield:

Target Selection: Oya's Hunting ability allows her to select a priority target and draw them into the fray. When choosing the marked target, prioritize high-value enemies such as healers or damage dealers. By isolating and weakening key threats, Oya can tilt the odds in your favor.
Synergy with Critical Damage Dealers: Pair Oya with heroes who excel at dealing critical damage to capitalize on her passive buffs. Heroes like Yasmine or DareDevil can benefit greatly from Oya's support, as they receive healing and increased critical strike chances when dealing critical damage or breaking shields.
Disruption and Crowd Control: Oya's abilities are excellent tools for disrupting enemy formations and controlling the flow of battle. Use Shield Breaker to target shielded enemies and weaken their defenses, while Overwhelming can deal significant damage to clustered foes. Coordinate Oya's attacks with other crowd control abilities for maximum impact.
Adaptability in Team Composition: Consider building a team composition that complements Oya's strengths. Allies with critical hit chance or healing abilities can further enhance her effectiveness, while Nature faction heroes receive additional bonuses from her passive skills. Experiment with different combinations to find the synergy that best suits your playstyle.

Oya Tips from the Hero Wars Devs!

1. Duration of Mark:

Ever wondered how long Oya's mark stays on her target? Well, wonder no more! The mark remains until the next time the ability is used or until it is removed by other means. Keep this in mind when planning your strategy on the battlefield.

2. Interaction with Iris:

Have you noticed a peculiar interaction between Oya's second skill and Iris's third skill? When Oya targets Iris with her second skill, Iris won't put her third skill's debuff on Oya, despite the presence of the keyword "Mark." Why does this happen? It's because Iris debuffs opponents based on the tags on her allies, not herself. Understanding this interaction can be crucial in battles against teams featuring Iris.

3. Multi-Target Attacks:

Curious about Oya's potential to wreak havoc on multiple targets at once? Rest assured, she can indeed hit several targets on the field simultaneously. This makes her a formidable force in disrupting enemy formations and dealing damage across the board. Use this to your advantage when facing off against clustered foes.

4. The Ancient Prophecy:

Have you ever wondered about the ancient prophecy that Oya seeks to fulfill? Delve into the lore of Hero Wars Alliance as you uncover the secrets of Oya's past. The life of Oya's tribe was steeped in rituals and prophecies, one of which foretold Oya receiving the Ancestor's Sword and becoming the last chief of her tribe. What exactly this prophecy entails for Oya is a mystery waiting to be unraveled.

By heeding these tips from the developers, you'll be well-equipped to harness the full potential of Oya in your battles. Whether you're strategizing in the arena or embarking on epic quests, Oya's power will be yours to command. So, rally your allies, sharpen your blades, and prepare to conquer with Oya by your side!

Which Allies have Best Synergy with Oya?

Ally	Skill Synergy
Yasmine	Yasmine is a character with a high chance of critical damage and whenever an ally of Oya deals critical damage they will receive a healing bonus and immediately an increased critical damage bonus.
Elmir	Elmir starts the battle on the front line and when he creates his clones he immediately jumps to the back line. Positioning himself like this and dealing ranged damage on the front line and quickly increasing armor penetration for Oya with the weapon artifact. Furthermore, when used with Dorian, Elmir will receive bonus critical damage with vampirism.

Who is Oya Strong against in Battle?

Defeated Enemies	How Oya Beats Enemies
Fafnir	Oya is very strong against enemies with low health and usually high-damaged heroes like Keira, Artemis, Xe'sha, Ginger, etc. The damage Oya deals to these enemies is even greater when they are protected by Fafnir's shield.
Julius	Oya is strong against Julius because of the shield skill
Judge	Oya is strong against Judge because of the shield skill
Rufus	Oya is strong against Rufus because of the shield skill

How to Counter Oya

Counters	How enemies defeat Oya
Astaroth	Once per battle, Astaroth can resurrect an ally and when Oya uses her Hunt skill, she eliminates enemies quickly, and Astaroth revives them with full energy.
Iris	Iris is immune to debuffs, but not the Mark, and if an ally receives a debuff or mark Iris reduces the physical and magical attacks of the enemy that applies, in addition to burning them and causing damage. However, to use Iris against Oya you need to have another ally with less health in the team or Astaroth to resurrect her.
Satori	Oya receives 700 extra energy when eliminating an enemy, so Satori applies his marks. But Satori has little health and can be the target with less health, so it's good to have another ally with less health or Astaroth to resurrect him with full energy and counterattack.
