Arena of Valor is a MOBA mobile game developed by Timi Studios and published by Tencent for all other markets outside of China. The gameplay of Arena of Valor resembles League of Legends, which is also belonged to Tencent. Arena of Valor quickly gained the attention of many players around the world with a large esports scene with pro teams and big tournaments.
If you are a League of Legend player, you will be able to get into this game fairly quickly. However, there are still many differences between Arena of Valor and League of Legends and one of the big differences is heroes. Lots of them have been modified to be more mobile-friendly and so their power might not be the same anymore.
So today, we are going to introduce to you the list of the top 10 Arena of Valor best heroes for new players.
List of the top 10 Arena of Valor best heroes for new players
We made this list below based on how easy you can get the hero, how you can use the hero efficiently without taking too much time so at least you won't feed too much.
1. Arthur (Tank)
Arthur is an excellent hero when fighting against another melee hero. His skill allows him to deal a great amount of single-target damage, making him very strong in the laning phase. Thanks to his passive he is a quite tanky hero, which means he is harder to be killed. None of his skills need mana so you can just spam them whenever it is off cooldown.
This hero is really easy to play and you can get him for free from events, making him one of the best heroes you should use when first started at Arena of Valor.
2. Lumburr (Tank)
Lumburr is a support tank with many crowd control abilities. With his passive, your allies will gain extra armor. His ultimate is a big AOE stun ability which can turn the tide of a whole fight if used correctly. The weakness of Lumburr is that he is not a solo hero so he is very weak in 1 vs 1. But if you stick with your teammate with damage, you will be a great help to catch any hero.
3. Butterfly (Assassin)
Butterfly is an Assassin hero that has a lot of damage in her skill set, allowing her to burst down an enemy quickly. But what makes her OP is that her skill will be reset and her health will be restored if she got a kill. All her skills are low cooldown and don't cost any mana so that is one thing less to worry about. You will be able to get the hang of her after only 3 to 4 matches.
4. Kriknak (Assassin, Warrior)
While Kriknak is an Assassin hero, he is a very easy-to-play hero. He has high damage and an escape skill. This makes Kriknak a big threat if the enemy is in the wrong position. Kriknak is also tankier than other Assassin so you can totally switch to a Warrior build later in the game.
5. Lu Bu (Warrior)
Lu Bu is one of the best Warrior heroes for beginners. Lu Bu is exceptional in 1 vs 1 fights. He has high damage. He is tanky. He has a gap-closing skill and his skill doesn't cost mana. He can spam his abilities continuously in lane, making him a very tough hero to face.
6. Zanis (Warrior)
Next, we have Zanis, a hero who will gain more attack speed whenever he uses his skills. His first skill increases his movement speed and removes CC. With a high strength stats and attack speed, he is a great duelist without the need for any item.
7. Krixi (Mage)
As for Mage heroes, I would like to introduce to you Krixi. Her skills are simple and easy to use but they have huge damage. With a CC skill and huge damage, she will be the main damage dealer of your team during combats.
8. Natalya (Mage)
Natalya is also a great Mage hero for beginners. She has many AOE skill with high damage and high range, which allows you to fight in combats from a safe distance.
9. Valhein (Marksman)
Valhein is a free hero that you will get when you install Arena of Valor. He has a stun skill, which makes him a great duelist. He is one of the few heroes that can be either attack damage or ability power hero. This is the favorite hero of most beginners because he requires very little skill to play effectively.
10.Tel'annas (Marksman)
Last but not least, we have Tel'annas. This hero can deal damage from far away consistently with her skill. Her auto-attack has a slow effect, allowing her to kite enemies. She can deal both magic and physical damage, which is quite useful as enemies can't just stack up armor.
