# Hero Wars: Best Team Combinations for Folio


Are you looking to maximize Folio’s potential in Hero Wars: Dominion Era? This magical tome-turned-warrior is a powerful Intelligence-based Mage with a unique Intelligence steal mechanic and Ink Copies that add an extra layer of strategy.


If used correctly, Folio can devastate enemy teams while bolstering his own allies.


In this guide, we’ll explore the best team combinations to help you dominate Arena, Grand Arena, and Guild War battles with Folio.



Understanding Folio’s Strengths

Folio is a middle-line Mage whose abilities revolve around stealing Intelligence, dealing massive AoE magic damage, and using Ink Copies to manipulate enemy targeting. His ability to weaken enemy Mages while amplifying his own team’s power makes him a top-tier pick for magic-based teams.

Key Abilities:

  • Weight of Knowledge – Deals AoE magic damage that grows over time.

  • Mind Stealer – Steals Intelligence from the strongest enemy Mage.

  • Inky Friends – Creates Ink Copies that absorb damage and weaken enemies.

  • Superior Copying – Swaps places with an Ink Copy upon their expiration.


With this knowledge, let’s dive into the best hero combinations that maximize Folio’s strengths.


Best Hero Wars Combos for Folio


  1. Magic Damage Copy Combo

Best for: Arena, Grand Arena

  • Folio – Main DPS and Intelligence drain.

  • Faceless – Can copy Folio’s AoE attack for extra burst.


Why It Works: 

This setup focuses on copying Folio's high burst magic damage with Faceless. Faceless doubles the skill-level of the Ultimate he copies, as well as providing a Magic Penetration Artifact Weapon Buff for his team.




  1. Control & Energy Manipulation Team

Best for: Guild War, Clash of Worlds

  • Folio – Intelligence drain and AoE magic.

  • Jorgen – Energy suppression, magic synergy.


Why It Works: 

Jorgen’s energy suppression gives Folio more time to steal Intelligence, and his shield will defend Folio until the end! With the META shifting to Khorus over Sebastian, Jorgen is PRIMED to make a HUGE come-back!




  1. Defensive & Ink Copy Abuse Team

Best for: Defensive setups, long battles

  • Folio – Int steal and Copies for tanking.

  • Astaroth – Tank with resurrection ability.


Why It Works: 

Folio’s Ink Copies act as temporary shields, Astaroth provides a resurrection safety net, allowing Folio to do full damage!





  1. Full Magic Burst Team

Best for: Pure magic synergy and high burst potential

  • Folio – Magic AoE burst and Intelligence drain.

  • Orion – Fast magic attacks.


Why It Works: 

This setup maximizes magic burst with Orion's fast-stacking Magic Penetration Artifact Weapon!








Conclusion: How to Use Folio Effectively

In my early opinion, Folio is a versatile Mage who works best in magic-centric teams, or high defense teams. His Intelligence stealing makes him particularly strong against enemy Mages, while his Ink Copies add strategic depth to his placement and survivability.


With the right team, Folio can be an unstoppable force in Hero Wars! Experiment with different setups and find what works best for your playstyle.
