Hi All,

Matilda doesn't seem as OP as Sven or Talissa... judging from how she is not used in arena as much in the top ranks. 

Would like your feedback regarding the following thoughts on her jobs:
1. Witch Doctor
- Better in PvP although still not optimal (turn refresh/skill delay counter), but is her aura useful in PvE too? I can't get a feel for how well the aura works in practice. 

2. Spirit Walker
- Better in PvE due to her pet abilities and her own skill, but how good is that aura in practice? I do note the buffs to her attack after she summons as well as the aura's 120% but don't healers have rather low base attack to begin with?

3. Do either ones complement a SDD build? I was wondering if a Matilda could be used as a 5th team member consisting of Vincent/Sven, Kahuna and two life leech aura providers, or are there better heroes to fit that 5th slot like a attack trigger hero.

When Lucille sees a Matilda SW on the enemy team, she cries together with her Faye girlfriends.

There is no other unit in the game with both a full map buff and debuff dispel. This alone is pretty powerful. Having a Faye HD and a Matilda SW means that no bubbles will stand in your way. If there are squishy enemies, that SW Archangel can put out some delicious full team healing. Talissa poisoning your entire team? Archangel's got your back too with a full team dispel and hot.

Matilda SW aura definitely has a place in a pve trigger team, but she's a solid player in any arena team, considering that she hard counters Fayes and Lucilles, both popular meta units and to an extent, Talissa WL.

Thanks, I ended up going with SW Matilda as I can tell her skills will be useful in PvE for sure, whereas I can't with WD. Knowing that SW is also decent in arena helped to seal the deal, although to date, I have not used Matilda in arena.... Sven and Talissa(s) and Ronan(s) with guardian(s) support seems sufficient. 

I am not sure about Pvp but I have been my using my Matilda as a viable range damage dealer in PVE ever since her release. I'm writing a guide on her soon. Stay tune. 

Yeah after the summoner nerf I did swap out my Matilda. Everything I said about her still stands, but overall Matilda is more of a long term sustain rather than decisive burst/utility character which arena requires.

Because of the arena turn system Luthor or other characters with passive heal aura can output more healing than matilda SW, which is not the case in pve.
