Saint Seiya Ex Odin Seiya Skills Breakdown

- Hero Star Slash (Skill 1)
Deals 75% physical damage to a single enemy. A solid opener with decent damage output. - Ultimate: Odin Blazing
Boosts Odin Seiya’s basic attack damage by 65% for 15 seconds, then strikes 3 nearby enemies multiple times totaling 100% physical damage with more than 6 hits. This also includes a knock-up and knock-down effect for 1.5 seconds, which is significant crowd control for disrupting enemy teams. - Passive: Thunder Strike Chance
When dealing physical damage, Odin Seiya has a 15% chance to release a lightning strike causing true damage to the nearest enemy. This adds burst potential and true damage that bypasses defenses. - Falling Star Shadow (Basic Attack)
While flying and invisible, Odin Seiya deals 50% physical damage to all enemies with her basic attack. During this move, He is immune to control effects and damage, making her very hard to counter in this phase. - Heroic Sword Momento
Odin Seiya creates a shadow with every basic attack that hits again for 50% damage. This effectively doubles basic attack damage output with a slight reduction on the second hit, enhancing sustained DPS. - Tress Blader Spirit (Healing & Lifesteal)
When attacking with Falling Star Shadow, there is a 65% chance to leave a sword shadow for 30 seconds. If Odin’s HP drops below 20%, all shadows on the field are recalled, restoring 2.5% max HP each and granting 8% lifesteal for 15 seconds. This skill improves survivability significantly, especially when placed in the frontline.
Strengths
- Great Frontline Presence Odin Seiya works best in the frontline with her invisibility and immunity during Falling Star Shadow, allowing her to avoid damage and control effects while dealing AoE damage.
- Good Crowd Control The knock-up and knock-down effects on her ultimate can disrupt multiple enemies, providing valuable CC in team fights.
- Sustainability The lifesteal and healing from Tress Blader Spirit make Odin Seiya tougher in prolonged fights.
- True Damage The 15% chance to deal true damage lightning strikes adds a solid punch to her damage profile.
Considerations

- Lineup Synergy
Odin Seiya fits best in a frontline-heavy lineup. If your backline is weak, He might leave your support and damage dealers vulnerable. - Competition
Heroes like Sagittarius Seiya or Leo might offer different advantages, especially if they have better synergy or buffs (bonuses) with your existing heroes. - Limited Banner Ticket System
Pulling Odin Seiya requires specific limited banner tickets, which might differ between servers. Keep in mind ticket availability and save your diamonds accordingly.
Odin Seiya brings a mix of strong damage, crowd control, and survivability to Saint Seiya EX Hero. Her invisibility mechanic and true damage lightning strikes make her unique and dangerous in the frontline. If you prefer a hero that can disrupt enemies while staying relatively safe, He’s definitely worth considering.
However, ensure your lineup supports a frontline hero well and that you have the resources to pull from her limited banner. For players aiming to climb arena rankings or strengthen their team’s frontline, Odin Seiya is a solid addition.
