More Insights & Reading

I highly recommend reading these three threads for more information and context on summoning odds:

If you’ve read them a million times before, you may consider reading them again before deciding on your budget for summoning. A little time spent deciding on how much money you want to risk on summoning goes a long way to avoiding disappointment, frustration, and regret later. :slight_smile:

Felton but to 3 targets

why not… I’ll just do my one earned pull and make sure I lube up before I fight him in war.

Awesome,… cripple attack & defence…with possibility to drop off some manas…though good…the class is not fighter.

Where did this guy come from? … first time I’ve heard of him… 5* felton should be good in play…
I wouldn’t mind getting one…
So 145 pulls later
I got the other guy 3 times…

Summary




Blessed and cursed!
Good luck everyone…hope you get your desired!
Edit:

Summary

Tried again…174 additional pulls and finally got the cutie :heartbeat:


We shall see if it was worth the effort :wink:

The OP has the proper details. Polls are now enabled.

@djp1997 His title should be “Goblin Necromancer”.

I got Acidfire on my first pull, with Madhammer tagging along. Nice change from the usual 3* dupes and multiple copies of whichever 5* hero I like the least that I normally pull. Of course I just used all of my red and purple mats so unfortunately they won’t be fully leveled any time soon.

This hero is out of control. He makes Deadboot obsolete already. This is bonkers!

You mean a VF priority buff stealer with highest possible spell dmg for VF and stronger def debuff is obsolete? Hahah :smiley:

Why? I say not. Together they will be quite good. But Deadboot steals the buff and then Acidfire prevents it. A good team I will say. I have deadboot and caught Acidfire this morning, so will be fun… I hope!

On one hand you have a VF buff stealer, who will probably be charged BEFORE the enemy team has any to steal and whose damage hits one. There is a defense debuff, sure, but to one.

On the other hand you have a FAST hero who hits three equally. Prevent the three hit from utilizing new buffs they would have gotten and on top of that reduces both attack AND defense for the duration of the fight to THREE.

I get that they are not cut and dry the same, HOWEVER, their uses are so similar that Deadboot is now, imo, 2nd place.

Acidfire is PROACTIVE while Deadboot, in order to be good, requires the opponent to have already fired, making him REACTIVE.

Acidfire>>>>Deadboot

Since I am in a hurry… deadboot at VF destroys you LB2 taunters and ailment blockers whereas acidfire cant even apply his steal debuff if hero has ailment immunity…

Edit : also, if you wish to play Lwing with Lflank in same turn on defense, you need VF hero on wing, not F, in general…That means, you dispell instantly, not next turn (taunt still active) and you get maximum dmg from your next casters in same round…

Oh no sorry to hear you got the green dude 3 times, and congrats on Fizzcoil if you didn’t have him already?

My luck was terrible, I did close 400 pulls and didn’t pull a single goblin. With the odds I should have pulled at least 6 goblins :laughing:

Nahh. It might look that way. But he can be silenced or mindless even attack before he goes off. Don’t get me wrong though… he is very good!

And with new OP heroes like “Luna”, “Sha Wujing”, “Xiamara” and “Ghealach” and the newer heroes that are coming out, you need something really good to kill those heroes.
Here is one Goblin that will be able to help you with that :slight_smile:

Almost the same damage than Khagan. At fast speed.
