Overview

• Angela debuts as the game’s first flying Vanguard, swapping a spear in the air for dual axes on the ground and using Assassin’s Charge to grab and fling foes.
• Her Heaven’s Retribution ultimate tethers nearby enemies to a thrown spear and drops a spike field that boosts her damage before she dives into the fray.
• Reviewers praise her fun, disruptive playstyle but say her sustained dive pressure makes life harder for supports and other backline roles.
• Angela functions as an off-tank with a 300‑HP personal shield that largely protects only herself rather than offering broad team cover.
• Coverage flags ongoing roster skew, with one outlet projecting 22 Duelists, 11 Vanguards, and nine Strategists by season’s end, while community reaction to Angela’s freshness and power remains mixed and could inform future balance tweaks.
