Story

Marvin is a ruthless mercenary active in Desert Kingdom.

His body is as if it was engineered for pure destruction. With his inhumane strength and toughness, he was feared even among the fellow mercenaries. He was never welcomed into any place and has given up on getting close with anyone. He is harsh and jaded. But if he were to find something precious to him, he wouldn't stop at anything to protect it.

As he's been through myriads of battles, he's never agitated by one. In fact, many would say he seems more relaxed and comfortable in battles.

Quick Evaluation

  • Deceptively strong special ability
  • A solid counter to Marina who is prevalent in current meta
  • Exclusive weapon skill only needs two usages to start a chain
  • The more walls there are on a map the harder he is to play to his full potential
  • Exclusive weapon skill has a long cooldown, and is moderately hard to land in arena if opponents are mindful of it
  • Linear gameplay, not much outplay potential because of how straightforward he is to play.

Focuses on buffing Marvin's defensive stats and normal attacks/chain, as he won't be using his weapon skill filling this role.

Suggested Weapon

VulkanThe best overall option for him due to the damage boost he gains from its exclusive passive, an. It also has great defensive stats which Marvin needs.
OR
Pure MindSituational alternative for Arena that can give Marvin an edge against some light heroes like Eugene, but the trade off is weaker defensive stats which can actually cause him to do worse in some matchups, like Future Princess.
OR
OurosA good alternative to Vulkan if you somehow don't have it but happen to have Ouros. Gives good defensive stats and the weapon skill is a bit easier to land than Vulkan.

Suggested Accessory

Mirror Necklace of RichesBest overall accessory for Marvin, as it gives a good balance of all the offensive and defensive stats he needs.
OR
Ring of BeliefReally good option if you're lucky enough to MLB it, as it comes with Crit, Skill Damage and Atk while having higher base Def than Mirror Necklace.
OR
Honor RingSimilar to Ring of Belief but has more Atk and % Def as its MLB stat at the cost of Skill Damage and Crit.
OR
Gold Pocket WatchSolid option for any hero going into Arena, as it gives a decent mix of offensive and defensive stats along with a good amount of Weapon Skill Regen Speed allowing quicker and more frequent weapon skills in order to chain.
OR
Sharp ShooterThe best purely offensive option available that can help him burst opponents in Arena at the cost of survivability. It has the added advantage of being easy to MLB.
OR
Greed EarringA budget option that is easy to MLB and gives a decent spread of offensive stats with some HP as well.

Suggested Cards

2x HPFurther buffs his already very high HP.
OR
2x DefAnother option, though most of Marvin's sturdiness comes from his high HP pool.
