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:

General consensus is that slow speed cards are bad and snipers are bad so this slow speed sniper must be terrible, right?

Wrong I guess. It actually looks super strong. I don’t know how much damage 800% corresponds to in practice since the damage formula is non-linear but I suspect this (combined with the fiend) will one-shot most heroes in the game. Since the top level meta is actually not that fast these days, that seems really good (also because the mega fiend automatically destroys mega minions)

This is the strongest moth hero mo, although maybe more on attack teams than defence ?

So far the only increased damage debuff I’ve found that stacks with gastille etc is charmione’s paralysis but that doesnt work against titans

The family bonus looks like a sneakily great one, a cleanse goes off and suddenly heroes fall asleep! With just one hero it will be nice, some slight slowing of mana generation and perhaps two sleeping heroes when a cleanse is done. Two or three may lead to an entire side dropping off into REM sleep!

  1. Do “Safe Cleanses” work to safely cleanse the Moth Dust or is the sleep still triggered?
  2. Does Equalizer trigger the Moth Dust?
  3. If a hero begins dancing while a mega-fiend is on it, the increased damage goes away like with other ailments, correct?

Safe cleanse does remove it without negative effects ( tested earlier)

well i guess is worked as when erlang hit stag family they convert attack downt to attack up directly and secondary effects is not triggered so i guess owls should not go to sleep and they are great counter to moth heroes especially as they speed up them self then even
