Your season. Your next move.
Check the EWs released on your server. Available means released, not personally unlocked. Earlier-season EWs are included. All 31 heroes stay selectable.

Back row
Choose from all 31 heroes, including SSR and SR options. Selecting a hero already in your squad swaps their position with this slot. Each squad setup is remembered. EW levels are shared across squads, and heroes without tracked EWs remain eligible for any slot.
Mark temporary heroes and choose their replacements. Your current formation stays in place.

All your original EW levels, formation advice and upgrade priorities are preserved.
Your upgrade roadmap
Based on the EW-eligible heroes you've selected and your planning focus. Heroes without an EW are part of your squad but not your upgrade roadmap.
Shards don't grow on cacti.
Cpt Hedge's general advice: prioritize reaching EW20 on key main-squad heroes before committing 1,750 more shards to EW30.
- Unlock: 50 hero-specific named shards, with the hero at 5 stars.
- EW20: +7.5% Attack, Defense and HP for that hero's troop type in battle.
- EW30: unlocks the hero's final EW skill, but costs 1,750 shards from EW20.
- Mixed squads: specialist buffs only apply to the matching troop type. For Kim, certain mechanics also scale with Tank hero count.
- Awakening: Kimberly, DVA and Tesla are important EW20 targets for Season 6 planning.
Full hero roster + EW tracker
All 31 heroes can join a lineup. Set EW levels only for the 15 heroes with tracked weapons; others will never add shard costs.
Hero Awakening
Track Kimberly, DVA and Tesla's Awakening with accurate tier costs, unlock requirements and star-skill bonuses.
Awakening resources and release week
Awakening shards are separate from EW shards. The initial 50-shard unlock must be paid with hero-specific named Awakening Shards. Universals only work after the unlock. The universal amount above is ONE shared budget, not a new budget for each hero.

EW vs Awakening Upgrade Advisor
Compare the next useful milestones for your planned squad. These are separate upgrade paths, not an invented power-per-shard ranking.
Comparison respects your planned lineup, troop type, EW priorities, Season 6 availability and entered shard balances.
Guidance is indicative. Combat matchups, actual skill levels, gear, formation and future game updates may change the best upgrade. Do not compare unrelated shard currencies as if they have equal value.
