Hero Battle Matrix

Games Halo Wars Series

I was watching unit comparison videos and doing some testing, and I thought it would be cool if the community helped put together some spreadsheets showing which hero units beat which when fully upgraded. There could be one for no Y abilities used, and one for them used optimally, to see which powers make the biggest difference.

The reason why it might need to be a community effort is that there are 16 leaders, which means 120 different matchups to test, 240 if Y/no Y setups used. I think this would be a comprehensive way of determining which hero units are balanced and which ones need to be buffed/nerfed after the next patch drops. Let me know what you all think!

Honor Guard is best when he is fully upgraded. But sure, I’ll try and make an effort to test it

3

Honor Guard beats every hero 1v1. Yaps Giblins fully upgraded beat every other hero in game but that is 3v1. In a 1v1 sense, without HG, I would say Jerome or Warlord is the best hero to fight any other hero.

Warlord Decimus would stomp them like nothing.

Honestly, i’m not sure why I brought Jerome up but Shard Canon and Ultrahustle too powerful for Warlord to beat by himself.

Not really, even when their invulnerable they still get stunned. So your having one less grunt at the start because he’s getting beat on

No hero can detect so the Honour guard is best when fully upgraded

8

If you want to make an Honor guard Matchup fair,
Put in an Engi for both HG and the other Hero.

I think these videos already exits on youtube. Pretty sure Honor Guard wins because of his cloak ability.

10

Yeah there’s videos, but there isn’t a complete list of who beats who and by how much.

As for cloaked leaders, you could test them near a base with 4 sensor towers, just so there can actually be a fight.

It would make a lot more sense to just fight best a watch/sensor tower. That way there’s no interference from engineers at all.
