But they DO need to be capable of justifying the cash and micro you put into them. Rosie emphatically does not.

Exactly, I dont wanna have to micro-manage every unit and heroes either need to be really good with micro-managing or sorta good without management. Most of them dont meet this requirement. Churchill is my favorite for this reason.

Then don't micromanage? It's not like Rosalia is suddenly the new Corvus where you have to swap between her two weapons constantly even though you have other towers to cover her weapon weaknesses. You don't even need to bother to move her around except for when you place her down the first time.

Not impressed at all. Doesn't even have the oomph to handle her own tutorial mission without perfectly microing her sloppy flight controls and clunky weapon swap.

similar story to corvus

She is very underwhelming I will not lie.

But then I'll just one of the other heroes which are better, (even) easier to use and take up less space.

I don't think you've played with her if this is your response, with out micro she struggles to even be worth it at high level, and even with micro she gets your the results you'd want from the less micro heavy heros out their

She's meh in-game but that doesn't mean I can't commission giantess art of her.

This was pretty much my takeaway. She sucked in her own tutorial. The weapon swap and repositioning systems are absolute garbage without a hotkey style ability to press to do it without having to click on the hero, then click on the ability, (then click on the spot you want to move to).

Yeah his logic was so terrible I did not even respond to him.

better than Corvus or Geraldo

if her ability to follow bloons was what she always did rather than it being an ability she would be better but the damage is kinda bad and her placement takes up a decent amount of space on some maps

[Mountaineer]

I like her, but I was really hoping for a true flying hero. Rosalia is essentially grounded for her first several levels. IMO give her the hover ability right from level 1 so she can fill a niche by going to parts of certain maps that most other heroes struggle to reach. I picked Rosalia for a game on Firing Range so I could have her hover over the track, but she was total dead weight for a while before eventually getting the hover ability.

Rosalia does so well at high levels when you can have her boosting near 100% of the time, but she needs some improvements at lower levels to motivate players to want to bring her along for a CHIMPS game.

Same problem: You need to micromanage special powers and its just more trouble than its worth. I was just using Corvus on a daily challenge and I had completely forgotten him cuz I never use the S.O.B. (hes the wizard which build MP and needs manual casting of spells)

She's another micromanagement hero, and history has shown that nobody really likes micromanagement heroes. She could have been the hero equivalent of a helicopter, automatically flying around the map. But they decided to give her that on a cooldown and thus made her way more annoying to use.
