Vanessa

What her cards want

The live item pool on the import is 230. Old Zane is the skill trainer. The wiki, which is old, calls her plans weapons, aquatic control, and a single-weapon crit line. Those nicknames still match cards that exist on patch 20.1: Double Barrel for the early ammo gun, Anchor for a health-percent hit that wants a neighbor, Crow's Nest for the crit aura that pays lifesteal only while you own one weapon. Starting gold and income on the import are 8 and 5, taken from the 2.5.0 wiki, and I date them that way because 20.1 did not republish the opener.

Hotfix 19.3 put her win rate at 56.8% and her 10-win rate at 24.9%. That is the middle of the pack on 10-wins, behind Pygmalien's 28.6. I am not telling a new player to switch to Pyg for that gap. Vanessa is the hero whose cards you will see in the first shops, and the free-account rule makes her the default even if a later table says otherwise.

Skip a Mak relic plan on her board. Tomb of the Ancients belongs to Mak’s normal hero pool; that does not establish that every possible cross-hero acquisition route is excluded. If a guide spells her as a pirate, that is the community picture; the store does not give me a one-line biography to quote, so the portrait on this page is an illustration, not a screenshot of her model.
