Slows the team down too much unless you have no plans on using Brown or Purple anywhere else which are 2 of the most common troop colors. I wouldn’t suggest a 18 mana troop up to tank up front.

If this list is based on low level players, then: It wouldn’t hurt my feelings to see a competing list place her in the top tier. Divinia, by the way, is great later on in the game. It’s a great troop to build a team behind if you can get it early. Krystenax can tank, do area damage, summon, and (if used wisely) lead to extra turns. Both are very useful for early-game players-the kind of person who would be spending event keys trying to target important legendary troops. Sylvanimora is great to neutralize the enemy’s lead troop. I see Monolith as a more versatile troop. KoS is ideally suited to skull-spam teams, but that’s the only place. This means fewer enemy troops around to cast a spell, which I approve of. Further, because it targets the two weakest troops it will preferentially kill, rather than weaken.

(And again, I don’t really run beast teams.)ĭark Monolith can sit at the front of a team and tank, unless they took away Stoneskin while I wasn’t looking. Willow’s has some board modification, but not enough that I would use it over other options. Garuda’s spell gets better the more times you cast it. I never really ran beast teams, so I didn’t see much use for FG. As a bonus, it creates Doomskulls, so there is mana generation as a consequence of its spell. Glaycion is a two-color converter that can act as a tank. Beginning players without (m)any legendary troops are possibly looking for different things than you or I are. That colors our needs, and what troops are useful. Preface: you and I are end-game players with nearly complete collections. If it was cream of the crop, I have to wonder why I never use it anywhere. To me, Krystenax is another “generally strong” troop that doesn’t do much outside of that. TDS eventually loses a lot of value at higher levels while Divinia holds steady. How is it that Sylvanimora, Krystenax, and The Dragon Soul are cream of the crop yet Divinia is only Generally strong? Sylvanimora is only good for its 3rd trait and Divinia has more practical uses. How is Yao Guai not part of the cream of the crop? In what universe is Dark Monolith “generally strong” where as Keeper of Souls is merely situational? What makes Willow “crap” yet allows Garuda to be situationally strong? What makes Glaycion cream of the crop yet Forest Guardian not part of that list? FG has more fundamental uses at both the low level range and high level range than Glaycion. I don’t like relying on random chance when I am in the driver’s seat) Bone Dragon (slightly better in early game).I am happy to discuss anything people feel is out of place or have questions about. (I see excuses for more tiers, but I wanted to keep things fairly simple right now.)Īs mentioned above, this is my own personal opinions. I only used four tiers: (1) legendary troops that are good enough you should be spending diamonds to craft exhausting your event key supply to find them (2) legendary troops that are really useful but not quite in the top tier (3) troops that are okay/good in the right teams, but not usually worth seeking out and (4) troops that are pretty much only useful for getting stars of kingdom power. Here is Grundulum’s unofficial and highly opinionated list of legendary tiers, as of November 2018.
