Kunchen - Hero Card

Since June 2017 (Version 1.4), a special Hero of the Month (abbreviated HotM) is available in higher-level Summons. This is always a Star iconStar iconStar iconStar iconStar icon Legendary Hero and often especially valuable, even compared to other 5*s.

Obtaining the Hero of the Month[]

The HotM is only available via Summons for one calendar month (changing at 7:00 UTC/GMT, as usual in the game). Unlike regular 5 Star Heroes, they aren't available through Training Camp level 20, which places pay-to-win Players, buying more draws for Gems, at advantage.

Any "paid" Summon with a chance of a 5* Hero (i. e. Atlantis Summon, Challenge Summon, Epic Hero Summon, Elemental Summon, or Seasonal Summon, Legends Summon, Costume Summon, or Event Summon; ordinary "free" Daily Summons of lower-rarity Heroes are not eligible) has a bonus 1.3% chance to pull the Hero of the Month: in this case, the Summon provides both its standard described pull as well as the HotM in addition, i. e. two heroes instead of one.  Doing a 10-pull, the overall chance (of getting at least one HotM) is 12.3 %.

Beside this, the Atlantis Summon also offers 2 previous Heroes of the Month within its main pool, not as a bonus. Thus it is possible to pull a previous HotM with the current HotM as a bonus.  The two heroes chosen are generally quite difficult to predict but occasionally follow patterns. See recent Atlantis Featured Hero History.

HotMs older than 12 months can be summoned at the Tavern of Legends portal, and 4 of them are featured; the current HotM is also available. These old HotMs can be also obtained from retraining at Hero Academy level 10 with 5% chance, this percentage is further shared with Event Heroes.

Over time, as increasingly powerful heroes of the month are generated, pay-to-win players gain an increasing advantage over play-to-win. However, recent trends have seen heroes of the month become more specialty and niche heroes and, even though their power is slowly creeping higher, they are not nearly as powerful as the latest event heroes and the new batch of heroes released throughout 2022. Zagrog is the first HotM to reach 800 power while many Season 4 and new event heroes far surpass that already (Congalach hits 815, War of the Three Kingdoms and Season 5 heroes start at 825).
