How to Select Starting Talents | Ravenswatch Guide

This Ravenswatch Academy guide teaches you a better way: a simple 4-question framework that lets you evaluate ANY starting talent yourself, on any hero, in any run. Instead of memorizing which talent is "best," you'll learn to read what a talent actually does for YOUR build — before you ever click it. We cover the two mindsets (forcing a build vs. staying open), the four talent types (Required / Support / Universal / Hurts), and the three questions that make every choice obvious: Does it define my build? Does it help me snowball? What am I giving up? Then we put the framework to work on three real heroes — Aladdin, Carmilla, and Scarlet — talent by talent, verdict first, cost named every time. HEROES & TALENTS COVERED • Aladdin — Aerial Catch, Jinniya's Gift, Jinn's Might, Wish of Omnipotence (pick for value, not obligation) • Carmilla — Bat Master, Life Essence, Blood Rage, Life Tap (one talent that defines the whole build) • Scarlet — Distant Explosions, Devourer, Shadow Strikes, Shapeshifter (the talent that fixes the hero herself) THE 4 QUESTIONS (screenshot this) 1. What build am I making? 2. Does this talent define my build? 3. Does it help me snowball (get stronger, earlier)? 4. What am I giving up by taking it? Don't memorize the pick — learn the questions. ▶ Ravenswatch Academy: Beginner to Master (full series playlist) [PLAYLIST LINK] ▶ Next episode: how to reduce RNG and make more consistent decisions every run.
