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:

Forgot to post that I got this guy too! I cannot wait to level him. Bumped him up the queue so he will be on deck soon :hugs:

Kind of trash. With everyone LB everything very rarely did I get higher than the base damage. That is 510 to one hero. You will never see the max damage of 1020. There is approximately 46 4* who do more damage than this one. Reducing the mana by 1 tile is nice though. Can stop them from firing for one turn if fully charged. He needs to be a hit 3. Featherino is just as bad, but that’s for a different thread.

He had to get back in line when I pulled Starwalker. After I’m done I will continue Olbec.
