Introduction
Due to the relative simplicity of these cards, this review will be a bit shorter than the last. (Review length will unsurprisingly be proportional to the nuance of the cards reviewed.)The Greco-Roman 3 pantheon is generally quite good but slightly mixed. As a whole, these cards serve to advance power creep and further cement our current combo-focused meta, largely via the addition of Cronus and Uranus into our subpools. Hestia is a fairly unique red sub and a shiny new FUA option, perhaps comparable to a differently focused Glavenus. Tethys and Astraea are the least broadly applicable, though they can still find homes on a handful of teams (and have some nice art as well). The useful rolls (Cronus, Uranus, and Hestia) are luxury cards, not essentials, and should be thought of as such.
Two general things to note about Greco-Roman 3:
- This is a 6-star pantheon. The cards come in 6-star forms with awakenings already available and immediately able to undergo Ultimate Evolution. The data is unclear about whether 5-star pantheons and 6-star pantheons have the same rates in the normal unmodified REM, but it has been shown repeatedly that 5- and 6-star pantheons have the same rates when featured in a Godfest. Outside of typical GungHo desire sensor nonsense, you do not have to worry about these cards being statistically harder to roll than any 5-star pantheon card.
- Additionally, this is a pantheon with Awoken evolutions only. This means the unevolved base form has a different skill than the evolved Awoken form. We'll go through the skills of both the base and evolved forms later on in this review. All of the cards have completely parallel actives with identical effects and cooldowns, differing only in the colors of orbs produced.
