If you were fortunate enough to play Gigantic at one of many gaming events this year, there's every chance that you encountered Voden. The fox-like bow user quickly became one of my favourite Heroes to the point where I doubt I’ll play anything else when the game is eventually released. I think it’s fair to say that if you’ve any experience with massively multiplayer games or MOBA’s that you tend to know in your gut which class or hero is right for you, before you’ve even played them. For me, it was Voden.

Beautiful to look at with his hybrid of fox and deer features, he’s lithe and quick and plays exactly as you would hope. I’ve always loved agile classes with bows and he fulfills that wish in a game that’s incredibly fast paced. The finesse he requires to successfully land his shots, combined with his ability to provide some support (alongside his leap) make him incredibly flexible and a nuisance to fight against.

I’ve tried all the Heroes in Gigantic and they’re all wonderful to play, but I clicked with Voden straight away. If there was any alternative, it would have to be Mozo based on the fact she feels so much like a Spellslinger from WildStar. Her teleports combined with rapid fire bolts make her incredibly satisfying to play. That said, it’d be hard for me to give up on Voden when he rewards accuracy so well. Creating a Decoy that leaves others confused never gets old.

Which Hero are you most looking forward to playing in Gigantic and have you played them already? Let me know.
