A Hero must first be unlocked before additional Souls can be obtained. Excluding special methods such as Shops, Heroes are generally unlocked in one of two ways:
- League Locked Heroes - unlocked by advancing in League within the Hall of Fame
- Event Locked Heroes - unlocked through Global Events
Once a hero has been unlocked, additional souls are always available as a possible drop from Chests, Summons, and Evolution. Some Heroes can also appear in Global Events which reward a large amount of souls:
- Basic Souls - Additional souls are available from Evolution, Summons, and Chests
- Event Souls - Additional souls are available from Global Events, Evolution, Summons, and Chests
