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.

Let Daemon hit before this guy and it’s all good.

Tbh you want him to be the finisher anyway and there aren’t too many 6 tile red heroes to hit before him and do enough damage anyway.

So the cleanse was cool but I think the increased damage instead actually does him a favor.

Maybe Your owl works differently but he will seldom give anything close to 2200 damage. In particular early in the game when the enemies have high defense and you have not been able to get high attack from tour Goblin.

Normally, he will attack much closer to minimum or minimum damage if he is loaded in 2-3 turns in the beginning.

Later in the game he may be able to come closer to max damage depending of your team.

Happy gaming
