Edwin's passive skill will be active at all times and grants a buff to nearby units. So it is always good to let Edwin lead the charge and get into the thick of things. His active abilities are powerful tools that can cut down swarms of enemies quickly. These abilities have a cooldown once used.

Knowing when to use Edwin's abilities is important. A single mistake or mistimed use could spell disaster for your army. Also, keep in mind that while champions are strong as a group of soldiers, they can still go down in a fight.
