During the Tournament of Power, Heles displays strong confidence in her warriors, frequently praising their fighting spirit and combat abilities. Unlike most other Gods of Destruction, she does not berate her team members when they lose. She shows particular disgust at Frieza's brutal fighting methods, which she considers ugly and beneath a true warrior.
