Embrys The Anomaly Overview
Rising from the underworld beneath the mighty Chimera is a legend thought to have perished on his quest to slay the mythical creature. Instead, Embrys defied death, immersing himself into the Chimera’s realm to uncover its secrets. Infused with the pulsing red tendrils that dominate this cursed domain, he gained the ancient power of metamorphosis. Now, Embrys has returned, wielding this newfound power to fight alongside his fellow revenants and to finish what he started… Embrys the Anomaly is a Mythical champion, earned as the ultimate reward for defeating the new Clan Boss, the Chimera.
BASE FORM
In this form, Embrys focuses on debuffs and crowd control, converting positive effects on enemies into negative ones and places a new effect, Necrosis. When an enemy champion dies, a Necrosis stack is applied to all other enemies, with additional stacks added as more champions fall. These stacks deal 5% of the target’s MAX HP at the start of their turns, increasing by 5% per stack. Embrys’ passive activates Necrosis stacks at both the start and end of each turn, which can quickly deplete the affected targets HP. However, the can be countered if enemies revive their allies, as revived champions will remove stacks equal to the amount returned.
Embrys’ A2 removes Stoneskin from enemies, replaces it with True Fear, and converts Block Debuffs into Block Buffs. Positive effects, such as Increase Attack, are flipped into their negative counterparts, like Decrease Attack, while Embrys also steals 5% Turn Meter for each buff converted, then reduces enemies by 20%. This makes him particularly effective in buff heavy scenarios like Arena or against bosses such as Amius, to counter its mirror effects with your own. Additionally, his A3 provides crowd control with True Fear and Decrease Attack, while his AOE A1 destroys HP [up to 30%] and extends debuff durations.
ALTERNATE FORM
As this champion Metamorphs, Embrys becomes a tanky HP/ACC based damage dealer. He can still apply Necrosis in this form, and it enables his A1 to hit twice against affected targets, which can Block Revive. His A2 has an interesting dual mechanic: it deals double damage to champions with higher Accuracy or ignores 50% of Defence against those with lower, making his build focus adaptable based on your strategy. His A3 scales over time, increasing his Ignore Defence by 10% with each use, up to 50%, allowing for more damage once stacked. This skill also fully heals him and restores destroyed HP against bosses or swaps HP with an enemy, which is highly effective in Arena or bosses like the Sand Devil. Combined with his passive, which reflects 50% of damage taken and surplus damage when killed, Embrys can preempt fatal hits by placing Revive on Death before dying, allowing him to cycle back to his A3 and stay in the fight.
