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:


:thinking: Wondering About Your Personal Situation?

Feel free to discuss your team and roster here, and ask for advice from other Forum members.

If you’d like more extensive advice on sorting out your particular roster, I recommend creating a new thread in Gameplay Help & Tactics, and posting screenshots of your hero roster, along with your questions.

There is not many 4* priority dispellers (from head I can remember only Ametrine), so if I get him I may as well max him despite him being my 3rd 4* I got 4 years ago.

I’m very curious what he looks like. Fighting with meat grinder?

I bet he has beef thigh as his weapon.

I guess C2-Colen and C2-Marjana wont be in portal since their topics were not created yet . :confused: there needs to be hero or heroes that force players to pull, current featured heroes (according to tentative calendar; c2-Lianna and c2-Khagan) are not worth pulling i belive :boom:

According to predictions from our Seers they won’t. Unless SGG didn’t change it at the last second like they like to do sometimes.

With featured heroes it depends. I wouldn’t mind getting Lianna since I have her maxed and no costume of hers. Also there are 4 new costumes for 4* and some are interesting. But either way I don’t plan to spend here.

I was excited to use my keys, but it feels like i should not. I ve been playing 4+ years, yet i dont have red EDD, if there is not marjana or colen. I need to pass :frowning_face:

Perfect… in fact they put garbage… I’ll wait for June…

the difference between the original and C2 headshots should be immediately obvious without a “spot 6 differences…” Highlights activity. Or an additional indication when a costume is being used before starting a battle

2LB stats for reference. Priority dispell may make this guy worthwhile.

Can’t get any costumed Gormek for 2 years now. Been trying to get him this time but got costumed Kadilen instead :-/

Buhuuu :))) I want your troubles :smiley:

I did not get him nor C Kadilen. I got on the other hand C2. Lianna and C2 Khagan who are not going to get maxed any time soon

I have c Khagan already so his second costume would be more than welcomed

Ok, let’s switch, send me C Kadilen and I will send you C Khagan :smiley:

Why the hate for C2 Khagan ? With bard, Druid mana bonus, costume bonus & 20% troop bonus he charges in 9 tiles !! 9 tiles with that special is pretty awesome IMO. Throw in the empowered minion fr the superior Druid talent & he has some beef to him. Gormek is a multi role hero now. 1st cozzie for minion removal & tile dispelling with the superior jinx & now he’s a priority dispeller who has the superior manashield which I find crucial against Alfrike in VF wars. If I hadn’t pulled Brimstone I’d be levelling Khagans 2nd cozzie now. I think he’s that good. Hypnos (LB2), 2C Khagan & 2C Gormek will be a nice 1-2-3 punch combo with double dispelling for those alpha taunts. With todays meta u can never have too many dispellers & priority dispellers r worth their weight in ham !!!
