Ah, 2022, what a year!

So which troops released in 2022 earned permanent spots in your teams?  
No one-offs or ‘if we ever get that one world event requiring blue generator elves from Karakoth’ troops.

I’ve not paid much attention to troop releases this year, so my list is very short:

- The Wild King. This guy actually slaps for E12. I decided not to fully trait him and I’m glad I didn’t - he’s a lot more flexible without his storm. Paired with Doomed Scythe, Angry Mob, and Leprechaun, this is a surprisingly fast team. So fast in fact, that for the first time since getting Zuul, I don’t feel the need to have Mr. Anniheeheelate on my team. I run this team as Titan for the enrage, dust storm (9/10 times fills Angry Mob after Leprechaun cast) and the added survivability from Barrier.

Well, that’s it already.

I think there were some re-heated empowered converters released last year too - but I’m not participating in Guild Wars anymore.

E: Yeah and Magma Dragon aswell. Probably used that troop the most out of anything released.
