Benchmark & the roadmap advisor

The simulator can benchmark your whole account and plan your shard investments across future generations — so you develop the right heroes, in the right order.

Stop guessing what to level

The Best Counter and Quick Fight tools answer "who wins this fight?" Benchmark answers a different, earlier question — "what should I build next?" You enter your roster (each hero's star, sub-star, widget and skill levels) and your generation, and it ranks every leader slot you own against a tier-matched training dummy across five scenarios: solo attack, rally, defense, garrison, and an all-around mean.

Confirmed  Heroes are tested against generation-specific meta formations — the dummy plays the counter-split, not a naive 33/33/33 — so you find out whether a hero is actually strong or just strong in one mode.

The roadmap advisor

The advisor turns that ranking into an upgrade plan. It weighs your current stars, hero ownership, shard income, free roulette value, future generations and your spending profile, then labels each hero Develop, Hold, or Set aside — prioritised by the power you actually gain per shard invested.

The F2P shard costs it reasons with are the real ones: 465 shards to take a hero to a skill-complete 4★, 1065 to 5★. Pick a profile — F2P, spender or whale — and the target investments adjust. You can include heroes you don't own yet, compare "build now" versus "wait for next generation," estimate arrival times, and track shard banking.

Rule of thumb  Benchmark deliberately ignores the specific opponent, your joiners, your gear and your buffs — it is a development-priority tool, not a matchup predictor. For "will this rally beat that garrison," use Best Counter. Read Benchmark as "where your next shards buy the most power."

Simple or advanced

Simple mode asks a few questions about how you play and hands you a digest. Advanced mode exposes every weighting, plus heatmaps, radar and quadrant charts, generation timelines and a "worth waiting for" comparison. Both read your roster — you can pre-fill it by uploading your Heroes screen.
