Strategos Islin is a champion tanky with excellent control and mechanisms special care.
It will be very useful in PvE, where control is a real asset. The Hydra may be its preferred location, thanks to its healing abilities. As well as the Iron Twins Fortress, where in addition to massive healing, the Speed Reduction debuff on Strategos Islin's A2 will be indispensable.

My opinion :

A champion who will surely be very tanky. For the hydra, he can be useful for taunting if the head is Force. However, with the counterattack, he'll need to be the one with the lowest HP, which is a bit annoying.

Playing it full defense will be the solution to get a bigger heal and a bigger shield too.

His a2 will be great for the hydra too. All that's left is to test it and see its base stats.

I do all the fusions, but it's far from being the worst fusion champion.
