release of the new heroic team will be accompanied by dwarf
avatars as well as a dwarf-inspired playing field that features
a new crystal layout and exciting new Teleporter premium
squares. Game Center is also coming to Hero Academy with support

The Dwarves
The dwarves hail from distant fortresses of stone, seeking
wealth and glory through victory at the Hero Academy. Dwarves
are extremely crafty and gain improved bonuses from the
playfield's premium squares. They are masters of area attacks.
• Paladin – The Paladin is a devout holy warrior who can heal
and revive allies, healing herself in the process.
• Gunner – Ever the sporting gentleman, the Gunner is a shooter
who deals high damage to a nearby enemy and does area-of-effect
damage at range.
• Grenadier – Cranky and scarred, the Grenadier can lob bombs
over enemies for area-of-effect damage.
• Engineer – With her handy tools, the Engineer can shield a
single ally or crystal. She also gets a higher bonus from
premium squares.
• Annihilator – Wielding his shoulder-mounted rocket launcher,
the Annihilator deals heavy damage with area-of-effect
knockbacks. Direct hits weaken his enemies’ physical defenses.
