NHF – new heroes for Heroes V 3.1.

If you don't mind, it's complicated. As I said, the guys from Shio aren't the most proactive, so a bonus to initiative might not be that great for them. It would work better on the Tactical Element. Also, a debuff on initiative should work well for heroes with strong magic. A buff on initiative, on the other hand, works better against such heroes (and generally works stronger if the enemy actually has a hero, although how important this is is a question). In general, there are many nuances here, and it's difficult to assess all of this unambiguously, at least without numerous (very numerous) tests. So I would consider these abilities to be roughly equal (with the same mathematical effects).
