What are the Best Hero Wars Lyria Teams?

Note: "BEST" is not that same as "FUN;" if you enjoy Lyria (or undead teams) level her up no matter what!


Vs Dodge (will vary depending on defense)


Key Points:

  • only 2 total undead are needed to counter Dante(or QM/Aurora) with Nebula

  • Isaac/Seb are in for Augustus/Orion. Swap them for whatever other combo depending on what the defense is using. (the "meta" is now dead).


Vs Non-Dodge Teams

Do not use Lyria vs non-dodge teams. In these situations, Lyria becomes a damage support hero since she only has 1 attack skill. Until she gets more skins, or ascension skills, her damage support (and actual damage) are just too low compared to other options.


Undead Team


While the "Undead Team" looks like a lot of fun and synergy, in practice it's not that great. It's a poor defensive option, and on offense doesn't seem to handle most of the popular teams out right now.


Individually, some of the Undead heroes are very strong (Morrigan, Lyria), but some have very little use (Keira, Phobos).



What are the Best Hero Wars Lyria Counters?

Not dodge teams, literally anything else. Stuns, blinds, charms.


  • K'arkh absolutely blows her up!

  • Iris/Heidi/Dorian depending on the defense.

What are the Best Lyria Pets?

The following Pets are usable with Lyria:

  • Oliver

    • Lyria's Blue Ability (Children of the Grave) is modified by her health stat, so Oliver can be useful.

    • She also stands close to the front so the extra defenses could be beneficial.

    • She doesn't have a health skin (yet), but she does have a health glyph.

  • Fenris

    • The bonus physical attack that Fenris provides, will likely make him the ideal pet choice.

    • Fenris' ability to blind enemies will increase Lyria's effectiveness against Dante/Qing Mao teams!

  • Biscuit

    • The worst of the 3 options, only use Biscuit if the other 2 are not available (and a better "Biscuit Hero" is also not available elsewhere on your team).

    • His ability to reduce the healing received by damaged enemies is always useful.

    • Biscuit is often used as an "Ode Stripper" vs enemy Sebastians; Lyria's skillset is not really well-suited for this style of combo.



What are the Best Lyria Flag/Patterns?


Best Flag:

War Flag of Swift Warriors


Best Patterns:

  • Pure Counter Dodge:

    Physical Attack/Armor/Dodge Reduction


  • Vs Everybody Else

    PA/Armor Penetration/Magic Defense
