Kraken and the others activate once per board state. As soon as the next step in the cascade happens, their trait can trigger again. So Gar’Nok will happily work as many times as you can consecutively fire him off.

Edit: **should** work, not will work. We already have evidence that how people expected Gargantaur to work is not how he apparently does. So there is a definite mismatch between expectations and reality.

Worst Mythic of all, only good for improving GroshNak kingdoms power until he is buffed. (and all its translation mistakes in the french version got corrected…with Skadi, thats 2 in a row now with huge translation problems).

SolZara also have translation prob? I still dont have this troop Ricky! 😢  
Ah yeah I see its still written in English but is it at least the good description of the spell and the 3rd trait? Because Skadi and Garg are completely wrong.

I would like to hear more about this Dark Priestess/Dark Maiden/Gargantuar combo. Is it, like, a slumber party? Or maybe they get stuck in an elevator? A car wash? Cumbersome’s OK, the genre’s “fantasy”.

Took me 20 Guild chests to get him (If you’re talking about the new troop)  
I had to craft Kretras.

A cumbersome threesome. Who should be recruited for the fourth place?

I got him but way too many keys and gems spent for what really is a lack lustre Mythic Troop (I can’t even think of a single team I want to try him in just another crap MT for the “collection”). In retrospect I should have saved my keys for the new kingdom…

You guys are all so mean to poor Gargantaur! Not everyone is born to be a fighter, no matter their size or how strong their mom is! Maybe he’s actually a big softie who just wants to give gentle hugs which turn out a bit too strong for most other inhabitants of Krystara, but too weak to actually count as a mythic attack.

Just give him a hug even if he’s bigger than you and don’t bully him! Big creatures need hugs, too!😌
