Ahoy Blitzers!
The “Mercenaries” Tusk Tales Update is now available for all! Read about it in detail in our previous Dev Blog!
New Mercenaries:
- Ziggy Stardust [Fortune] The wealthy proprietor of Glimmer Glow Casino – an elusive gambling den where only the most prominent aristocrats are invited to play. He considers himself an elite member of society, and looks down on those outside of his ritzy social sphere. Ziggy takes advantage of Glimmer effects, banking and splurging his wealth to power up his minions and deal damage.
- Lustra Starscale [Chaos] A one-of-a-kind Demonborne dancer who bears a strong connection with the dragons of old. After a selfless sacrifice, she gave up her own life to fulfill her duty and protect her friends. Her playstyle uses a variation on the Groupie archetype, mixing in uniqe dance-based spells.
- Sen [Balance] A wandering Riverclan samurai who lives by a strict code of honor. He seeks to test his swordsmanship against worthy opponents in an endless pursuit to hone his skills. Sen specializes in the Katana archetype, sharpening his weapon and attacking enemies directly with his blade.
- Spurfoot Willy [Nature] A talented shrubrancher from the outskirts of the proutwood. His love of these leafy creatures is second to none, having grown up taking care of them on his pop’s ranch. He never goes anywhere without his loyal shrubasaur companion, Buckaroot. Willy utilizes the mighty power of his shrubasaur allies to overwhelm his opponents with powerful, highly survivable minions.
- Broodmaster Braig [War] A bloodthirsty warrior who led a violent campaign many years ago, shortly after settlers first came to Crossdawn Isle. His passion for battle and bloodlust paved the way for his promotion to commander. His enchanted gauntlets allow him to summon fearsome creatures born of blood, utilizing Blood Tokens for various powerful buffs and card effects.
