Although the description of the specialty states, "based on hero level compared to the level of the target unit", the hero's level has no effect on the specialty.


Although the in-game description of the specialty states, "based on hero level compared to the level of the target unit", the hero's level has no effect on the specialty.
This specialty is especially useful in early game. With Expert Haste, Cyra's [[Master Gremlin]]s will be faster than any creature below level 7 (and be tied with the [[Dragon Fly]] and [[Efreet Sultan]]). This means at least two shots without distance penalty which can reduce losses significantly.

'''Changed turn order for Cyra:'''
* Instead of [[Titan]]s going first, [[Obsidian Gargoyle]]s and [[Master Genie]]s go first. This is not great, the Titans cannot weaken a stack for the melee attackers anymore.
* [[Arch Mage]]s now go before the [[Naga Queen]]s. This is good so they can weaken a stack before the Naga Queens attack.
* [[Master Gremlin]]s are now faster than the [[Iron Golem]]s. This is a welcome change, the Master Gremlins can now weaken a stack for the Iron Golems.

This specialty is especially useful in early game. With Expert [[Haste]], Cyra's [[Gremlin and Master Gremlin|Master Gremlin]]s will be faster than any creature below level 7 (and be tied with the [[Serpent Fly and Dragon Fly|Dragon Fly]] and the [[Efreeti and Efreet Sultan|Efreet Sultan]]). This means at least two shots without distance penalty which can reduce losses significantly. Haste also make slow and defensive units like stone golem better in attacking and controling the more important hexes on the battlefield.
As Haste is one of the most useful spells, starting with it along with the ability to boost low-level creatures (which tend to have lower speed) further, makes her a powerful starting hero.
