About Hepheisto

More than gameplay. A long-term Enlisted archive built through battles, statistics and automation.

The Idea

Hepheisto is a long-term Enlisted project with one goal: document as many battles as possible, break them down, and make them useful for other players. The channel combines gameplay, statistics, battle reports and automation into one central place for Enlisted players — not just for entertainment, but as a long-term record of both personal progress and the game itself.

It started as nothing more than enjoying the game. That grew into a real interest in data, statistics and automation — and some frustration that most creators only show highlights instead of documenting real matches, wins and losses alike. As a web developer, connecting gameplay with data analysis was the obvious next step. A.R.E.S. grew out of that.

Behind Hepheisto is a passionate Enlisted player with a professional background in web development, software development and project management. Many of the tools, automations and analysis systems used here were purpose-built for this project.
