Hero Guide[]

[Invincible Avatar] "The One" Escanor or more commonly known as Blue “The One” Escanor is the third Festival Hero of 7DSGC. He was released during The One Festival Draw event (February 16 - March 16, 2021) and can be acquired during Festival Draws, Rush Starter Draw when reaching 300 points or in the Coin Shop with Festival Coins. Like other pick-up events, he was a guaranteed reward after completing the loyalty gauge for spending 900 Diamonds in his own banner.

As expected from a Festival-exclusive unit, “The One” Escanor is a top-tier damage dealer used extensively in lower tiers of PVP. He’s also an exceptional PVE hero, particularly in Story Mode battles and Red Demon Death Matches. He’s also really useful for endgame content such as Eikthyrnir, and Hraesvelgr Demonic Beast Battles.

His skill kit revolves around dealing big amounts of single-target damage while buffing himself up over time as turns pass. His skills also have high damage multipliers and 2 of them introduced 2 new effects: Flood and Death.

Both of these skill effects provide an additional damage burst. Flood deals further damage for every percent of the remaining HP “The One” Escanor has.

On the other hand, Death deals a percentage of the final damage as an additional blow. If the targeted unit dies to the first instance of damage, the second hit will land on a random enemy on the field, potentially landing a deadly blow on a second unit.

His unique ability provides a buff that increases all of his stats each turn. When 3 buffs are accumulated, he gets a cleanse from any debuffs and becomes immune to all debuffs for 1 turn, then he starts removing all buffs one by one until 1 is left and starts stacking them again.

Blue “The One” Escanor has really high attack-related stats (Attack, Pierce Rate, Crit Chance, Crit damage) which gives him a great offensive capability.

On the other hand, he also boasts high Defense, HP, Crit Resist, and Crit Defense making him a priority target when facing him. He has a low base Regeneration Rate and Recovery but those get compensated by his Unique ability buff.


Pros[]

  • Ever escalating offensive and defensive stats thanks to his passive.
  • Ultimate Move can potentially kill 2 units or kill 1 full HP unit with enough dupes.
  • Can turn himself immune to all debuffs.

Cons[]

  • Needs several dupes to have the greatest benefit from his Ultimate.
  • After his passive reaches 3 stacks, it de-escalates making him weaker each turn until it starts stacking again.
  • Loses debuff immunity after 1 turn.

Skill Review[]

Super Slash - A single-target skill with Flood effect, dealing 0.8% additional damage for every percent of remaining HP on himself. “The One” Escanor can inflict the maximum bonus damage (80%) when attacking at max HP. Boosted by his Unique ability buffs, he’s able to one-shot most units at rank 3 with a 500% attack multiplier.

Supernova - A single-target skill with a high attack multiplier. Although “Super Slash” has more potential damage, “Supernova” is more reliable when “The One” Escanor has low HP as it inflicts fixed damage for up to 600% of his attack.

Ultimate: Divine Sword Escanor - Inflicts high single-target damage starting at 720% and up to 1080% of his attack. Additional Death damage will be inflicted consecutively based on the attack’s final damage. If the target dies on the initial damage, the Death damage will be inflicted on a random enemy hero on the battlefield. Thus, it can potentially kill up to 2 enemy heroes in 1 attack. Upgrading his ultimate will also increase the Death effect by up to 100%.

Unique: The One - Escanor will be at his peak power when he gains 3 stacks of this buff, gaining the advantage on both Offense and Defense. He will gain debuff immunity and increase all stats by 18%. It is usually best to reserve your attack cards until he gains at least 2 buff stacks. This increases the chances of killing your enemies in one strike when his Attack-related stats are boosted (Attack, Pierce, Crit Rate, Crit Damage). Moreover, he’ll be harder to defeat when he has more buff stacks.


Usage[]

Equipment Set - Onslaught (Attack) or Life (HP) / Iron Wall (Defense).

Substats are as follows:
Bracer/Ring - Attack
Necklace/Earring - Defense
Belt/Rune - HP

His preferred gear is Attack/Defense but he can also work decently with HP/Crit Damage to keep him on the field as much as possible. Attack/Crit Damage is only advised if Escanor has a taunt unit on the field to protect him such as Red Excalibur Arthur or Red Festival Queen Diane.

PVP - This is where “The One” Escanor used to reign supreme. He shifted the meta and easily fitted with top-tier support heroes like Green Halloween Gowther and Blue Goddess Elizabeth to create an even stronger team, but in the current meta is outclassed by other units such as Light “The One” Ultimate Escanor, Dark Traitor Meliodas, Blue Festival Berserk Estarossa and Red Reinhard. Although he is already strong in Ungeared (Normal) PVP, you will appreciate him even more in Geared (Elite) PVP where his stats can be increased further to his advantage but can be easily countered by teams with attack skill disables.

Story Mode - “The One” can be a really useful asset even at low Ultimate Move levels with his burst damage, he can clear most levels even while being the only damage dealer of the team. A solid combination for most Story mode levels is Blue “The One” Escanor, a taunt unit such as Green Diane/Red Festival Queen Diane and Green Halloween Gowther with Red Ragnarok Ban or Green Deathpierce as a sub. This will provide Escanor with protection and the possibility of attacking the enemy without any retaliation.

Death Match - He’s also a solid choice for Death Match, especially in Red Demon where he can solo him. He can also work in lower difficulties of Crimson Demon Howlex, Demonic Beast Bellmoth, and Original Demon. He’s not recommended for Grey Demon given that both his skills are melee so he would have to wait until he lands to be able to damage him.

Demonic Beasts “The One” Escanor is a decent pick for Eikthyrnir and Hraesvelgr if lacking other options. Both of his cards give him the possibility to deal a huge amount of damage to Hraesvelgr, Death is also only partially bound to the damage cap so it will apply nonetheless. On the other hand, he can provide a decent damage output in Eikthyrnir and since he’s a Speed attribute unit he counts for the attribute wheel.

Training Grotto “The One” can engage against any Amber, including those of level 3.

Story[]

Escanor is the Lion's Sin of Pride of the Seven Deadly Sins, the former second prince of the Kingdom of Castellio, and the man known throughout the Kingdom of Liones as "The Strongest Holy Knight". His Sacred Treasure is the Divine Axe, Rhitta, and his inherent power is called Sunshine, which made him renowned for gaining immense power during the day, and gradually becoming weaker with the setting of the sun, leaving him frail and submissive at night.
