Avoiding Overspending & Heartache

More Insights & Reading

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

• How much should I spend?- HotM cost, and odds, analysis

• [WARNING] A Summons Experience - Chasing Guardian Panther - A Warning for Chasing Heroes

• https://forum.smallgiantgames.com/t/what-exactly-is-a-gacha-read-before-posting-things-about-unfair-pulls/29490?u=playforfun

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.

Conditionally good in 19/20

[Tidyup]

Niched hero who works well with specific heroes. Has an amazing synergy with whitefang

[drdare]

So he sets up the first punch at fast speed and the his second punch comes as a pretty good leveler. The mechanics is pretty smooth for a fast card. It’s liek the charge mechanic but implemented with a punch. There a quite a few frosties other than himself. So he can pair with them or he can pair with himself.

Got it on my 2nd free pull

[Warduke]

The frost damage on the second part is 1040 over 5 turns, not 705.

[Math-Teacher]

This is straight from the portal. Perhaps you’re looking at the maxed version.

[Warduke]

Ah, yes it was the maxed version.

[Dorkus]

I liked the beta version with elemental defense down first. Not sure what to do with him now.

[XpeepantsX]

SG giving me a free fix to give me the taste again. Blues are by far my strongest color, and the competition for wizard blems is stiff.
