Marquis

Last Updated: June 23, 2025

Marquis Overview

Guarding the lair where intruders of the underworld are imprisoned, Marquis possesses the power to paralyze his victims – leaving them dazed until given the command to awaken. Marquis is a Rare champion from the Demonspawn faction.

Marquis doesn’t offer much in terms of overall utility, but he may be ‘ok’ in early game Faction Wars if you’re lacking champions to form a full team for early 3 star clears. His A3 provides a 50% chance to apply Sleep to all enemies, offering some basic crowd control. The synergy between his A2 and A1 lies in self applying Counterattack, which allows him to follow up with his A1 and apply the 15% Decrease Speed debuff on critical hits. If using the Nature’s Bounty blessing, there’s a chance to upgrade it to the 30% version instead.

This can be helpful when progressing through stages of the Iron Twins, as Decrease Speed prevents the boss from boosting Turn Meter whenever your team receives buffs. The built in Counterattack can also help reapply the debuff after the boss cleanses debuffs at certain HP thresholds, just ensure he’s partnered with support champions to keep him alive.
