Nais the Shadowthief is a Mythical Magic champion from the Sylvan Watchers faction, cursed into a crow-like form after being slashed by a shadow-dwelling beast. His dual-form kit pairs a boss-slaying, buff-bypassing base form with a durable, counterattacking alternate form.
Core Strengths & Abilities
Boss-Slaying Base Form: Thief's Omen (A3) deals double damage to bosses and permanently reduces a first-hit target's ATK, DEF, SPD, RES, and ACC by 10% while boosting his own stats by the same amount, then blocks revival if the hit kills; Allpiercer and Blackfeather Barrage both ignore Shield, Unkillable, and Block Damage, making him a strong counter to champions like Sun Wukong or Leorius.
Survival Into Alternate Form: His passive, Glinting Saviour, prevents fatal hits from killing him outright, instead dropping him to 1 HP and transforming him into a durable, self-healing alternate form that leans on Counterattack and Block Damage buffs.
Key Weaknesses
Weaker Against Iron Twins: His stat-reduction mechanics on Thief's Omen explicitly don't apply to bosses, and his overall profile shows a clear drop-off against the Iron Twins compared to his Dragon and Ice Golem performance.
Outstanding Arena and strong Dragon and Ice Golem ratings make Nais the Shadowthief a genuine hybrid threat, dangerous in both PvE boss encounters and PvP thanks to his built-in survivability.
