01 Nov 2022

Are you on a losing streak or encountering toxic teammates in Normal Mode? Then blow off some steam by playing Moonton's second greatest creation: Magic Chess. Because this is an auto battler, you can also enjoy a cup of coffee since this does not require a lot of player input other than hero deployment.

However, there's still a risk of losing matches if you don't know which heroes to buy. So, to maximize your chances of winning games in this mode, we have come up with a list of the Best Chess Heroes That Are Powerful.

Normal Mode And Magic Chess Are Not The Same

But before starting out with our list, you should know that Normal Mode and Magic Chess Heroes are not the same. Although they do have a similar design, the mechanics are totally different in Magic Chess. Magic Chess Heroes, unlike Normal Heroes, only have one skill. You may also be wondering how these heroes level up. To level them up, you simply need three of the same star heroes. Stars will show the hero level, and 3 stars is the maximum level.

Furthermore, these heroes are divided into roles and factions. Having a set number of different heroes belonging to the same role or faction will trigger synergy effects. And not to undermine the given heroes' worth, what's crucial to winning the game is using an ideal synergy. These Heroes will further increase your chances of securing the match!

10. Karrie (Archer/ Mech Era)

Karrie, She Devour Tanks

Karrie will Carry you in both modes. She's an Archer and Mech Era type hero. When the Archer synergy is active, she gains additional attack range and has the ability to reduce the target's physical defense. With the Mech Era synergy, Karrie restores her Mana. But what if you used Karrie with an Abyss Crystal? She will melt tanks faster than anyone, thanks to the Abyss synergy and the true damage she gets from her passive.

Why Karrie Is Great For Chess:

Karrie is cheap and only costs 4 gold
Karrie’s passive can melt tanks faster than anyone
She’s great with the Abyss synergy

9. Beatrix (Gunner/ Mech Era)

Beatrix, The One Hit Delete Gunner

One hit delete Beatrix? Say no more! Although a Gunner and Mech era type hero, using the Astro Power crystal on Beatrix will grant her the Astro Power synergy. Furthermore, Astro Power Synergy is one of the most broken synergies out there! With six Gunner Heroes and three Astro Power heroes, she will one hit delete enemy heroes if you invest in the correct items. By the way, Beatrix, by the way, also has her four weapons in this mode, but it all depends on your distance.

Why Beatrix Is Great For Chess:

Beatrix is cheap and will cost you only 4 gold.

Elementalist heroes will spam their skills in rapid succession with Duet.

Furthermore, as an Assassin, she will jump to the backline of the enemy lineup and annihilate the enemy mages and marksmen with her bonus true damage.

Hey! Here's a Lineup to copy: 6 Elementalists, 6 Astro Powers, and 4 Mages. And make sure that Gord's a part of it. Now, Gord isn't an Astro Power type, so it's necessary to use the Astro Power Crystal on him. He will benefit from the extra damage and sustain from items. Also, make sure to get the Duet Evolution Benefit so he can use his skill in quick succession. Once you get this build right, it's only a matter of placing him in one of the corners behind your meatshields. He will then spam Kamehamehas on the enemy till they're dead.

5. Odette (Mage/ Astro Power)

Odette, Beautiful Odette

The Astro Power Synergy continues to dominate Magic Chess games. Why? Because the Synergy Effect makes it the most powerful formation. And that is another reason why players use this synergy even on Non-Astro Power heroes through crystals. Odette is an Astro Power type hero. She comes with her ult from the Normal Mode, which is even more overwhelming. Use the correct items, and Odette will melt the enemy lineup within seconds! Other than that, Odette also works in an Elementalist/Astro Power lineup, but it won't be necessary because she will still kill the enemy heroes without spamming her ult!

She can spam her ultimate if used with Elementalist Synergy
A must use if you’re going for Astro Power Synergy

Gatotkaca, The Man of Steel

Gatotkaca is a legendary tier hero that costs 5 Gold. Pretty pricey right? But he's worth it! Although he's a Wrestler and Mech Era type hero, Gatotkaca can be utilized in various synergies with the use of crystals. Lately, he's been dominating with the Gunner and Astro Power Synergy. That ult of his from the Normal mode is a game changer, and with the correct synergy, he will instantly kill groups of enemies within its vicinity.

Leomord And His Trusty Steed, Barbiel

Leomord's trusty steed, Barbiel, can lay waste to every enemy in its path. He's a Weapon Master and Necrokeep type hero. However, because his passive grants critical damage, Leomord is best used in an Astro Power lineup with an Astro Power Crystal. His damage output and sustain on the chessboard will maximize. Furthemore, a three star Leomord will quickly wipe out all enemy heroes!

So suppose Ling's the only guy standing in your team, and boom! He triggers his ultimate. What remains are the carcasses of the enemy heroes. That is why Ling can frequently 1v9 entire opponent lineups!
