    Kyoshin hero class?

    Does anyone know what class the new hero is? I’m going to assume that he’s a hybrid. I watched the warriors den stream after it finished, so I was skipping through the irrelevant conversations in it, so I probably missed it (unless they never said it at all).

    Why would your assumption be Hybrid?

    Each faction has a pattern.

    2 of each class.

    Wu Lin are behind but still following the original pattern.

    Knights have an extra hybrid but there are rumors of a Roman faction and Cent/Glad moving there, meaning the Knights are still missing a 2nd Assassin.

    Vikings and Samurai are both missing a 2nd Vanguard, and last years first knight hero was a 2nd vanguard.

    It is safe to assume that the Kyoshin is a Vanguard, and the new Viking for season 4 will also be a Vanguard.

    it's kind of obvious he's going to be in the samurai fraction I mean look at his moveset. Also most likely he might be a assassin

    Definitely not an assassin, he doesn't have reflex guard.

    Based on the move set he can be a Hybrid, Vanguard or Heavy (two hit chains and a big focus on full guard). But he doesn't have the HP pool to be a Heavy so only Vanguard and Hybrid remains.

    He’s definitely going to be either a vanguard or a hybrid, but in my opinion his kit and feats make him a little OP to be a vanguard. We got two knights last year (one vanguard and one hybrid), so my theory is that they will do the same this year with the samurai, and next year with the vikings (assuming that there’s gonna be a year 6). We will definitely get a another samurai vanguard, so it will either be the Kyoshin, or the other hero coming in year 5.

    I know he’s a samurai. He clearly has a Japanese weapon, clothing, and fighting style. I meant what class is he (vanguard, heavy, assassin, or hybrid). He’s definitely not an assassin since he doesn’t have a reflex guard.
