Samson the Masher is a Legendary Spirit-affinity HP champion of the Skinwalkers, a gorilla-like brawler who arrived as a recent Skinwalkers addition. His thesis is tanky, hard-to-kill damage: a champion built to soak hits and punish attackers through counterattacks and Stun.
Core Strengths & Abilities
Counterattack Synergy: His passive, Affronted, cuts damage from critical hits by 20% and always counterattacks whoever lands one, while also granting a 50% chance to counterattack any other hit — synergizing well with his A1, Vanity Fists, which hits twice with a 35% chance per hit (45% booked) to Stun, giving go-second Arena teams or Doom Tower fights real payoff from being attacked.
AoE Defense Strip & Team Buffing: His A2, Explosive Temper, is an AoE that strips all Increase DEF buffs from enemies before attacking, adding an extra hit on a kill. His A3, Roar of Victory, grants the team a 50% Increase ACC buff and himself Increase C.DMG for 3 turns before granting an Extra Turn, helping land debuffs against high-Resistance foes.
Key Weaknesses
Stun Chance Is Modest: His A1's Stun sits at only 35% base (45% booked), meaning his crowd control remains inconsistent even after investment.
With strong Arena and overall user ratings, Samson the Masher is a versatile, tanky damage dealer suited to both PvP and PvE progression, particularly valuable for players grinding through general content.
