Question Favourite unpopular heroes?

Forget Solmyr, forget Crag Hack and Tazar. What are your favourite relatively unpopular heroes and why do you like them so much?

For me it's definitely Lorellai - 35 harpy hags on day 1 with that +1 speed can take a lot of otherwise impossible battles, including f.e. XP shops. Also Leadership is quite useful for kiting with harpies, because you go back to position after the morale turn anyway.

Gem, even though her specialty sucks. She’s my elf princess.

I hate to ruin this for you but Gem is human, not an elf

Starting with a tier 4 unit is a kind of flex. I haven't seen if he still does in HoTA now that I think about it 🤔

He does. And there are Cove and Factory heroes who do the same.
