New Mythic Troop: Okra’Nos the Sleeper Okra’Nos the Sleeper will be the only Mythic Troop available in Glory, Gem, Guild & VIP Chests for the next 7 days.
Someone in the back was having too much fun nerfing this thing to the ground. 
“50% chances to Curse and/or inflict Terror on a random Enemy, when my turn begins.”
the , before when my turn begins isn’t needed and… did this trait need to be this needlessly arbitrarily random?
Now it’s completely unreliable for cursing or terror, but it does it eventually if the game isn’t already over.

Just yuk on the scatter damage.
Nerfing the only good thing about this troop, was very silly.
All the doommungers, were way over the top, a single trait, would not of made it meta, the same way TPK isn’t used a lot.
Putting this is any team, when it had the silence trait, would of obviously taken up a slot. A slot just for a trait. Honestly it’s not Christmas yet, Scrooge is out way to early.

What a lovely nerf!
Now this mythic is stunningly rubbish.
So, are you happy now illusional balance seekers?!
And devs / creators - Great job, keep that way and hopefully soon enough you will be closing your company for good.
Have a bad weekend

O come on Jeto, can you do something about this.
I’m a level 1700 plus , my teams are over 20,000.
And a mythic hits 66 scatter, that’s 16 and a half per enemy , it’s a mythic. Please god do something, if the spell is this bad , revert the trait back.
This is gonna be in the bottom ten Mythics.

No way in hell.

I only looked at the 1st 6 scatter damage epics.
Here’s 3 , that are stronger, than the new mythic.
These are epic FFS. And I only looked at the 1st 6.
Here are 2 rare and 1 ultra rare that are stronger than today’s mythic .
Honestly Jeto. Change it back.

With enough gymnastics, this troop is almost viable somehow.
-
It does “reasonable damage” if you’re level 100. Maybe level 105. Maybe you can Haunted Doll to terror all 4 enemies and Maraji Queen to curse all enemies. Yes, it’d probably take extreme luck to have Hunted Doll and Okra’Nos the Sleeper at level 100, but hey, someone could get lucky!

It’s the second best auto-curse troop. Woo.
-
It’s the best auto-terror troop. Woo.
Ok that’s about it. Wouldn’t say it’s the best at cursing for Construct or Daemons and wouldn’t say it’s the best at terror for Constructs or Daemons.
On a more serious note, there’s one hyper narrow useful application for Okra’Nos, and that’s setting up the Underspire Sentinels in a pure Construct team with a curse that doesn’t involve casting to get the Sentinel’s Giant Gem casts going.
Two Okra’Nos the Sleeper actually does Curse and Terror the enemy team pretty well in a few turns, but at that point, it’s almost easier to use 2 better troops in its place..
I don’t know, I’d probably just shrug and walk away apathetically if the extra layer of randomness of the 3rd trait wasn’t there. I wasn’t a fan of the 40% curse and terror a random enemy, but that needless extra randomness bothers me more.
Even if it did more damage, would I want to use this troop as it is? Eh, no.. would take a lot of extra damage.

It’s obvious to anyone.
At the design phase, the Devs know the spell is weak as hell, so they think , hey guys let’s give this troop a brilliant 3rd trait. So the playerbase can then have some fun, with choice. It hits like a wet paper bag, but has a 3td trait as good as any.
And there’s nothing wrong with that, it equals itself out.
But the minute the minority wanna spoil something, the Devs listen. And obviously there not gonna think, hey if we nerf the good thing, we should buff the bad thing, as why would they.
If I was a dev, I’d think if the playerbase don’t wanna have a bit of fun FK them. Here’s your nerf you begged for, now it’s unusable.
Honestly any of the players that wanted a nerf, you will never use this for anything, well done. Thankyou sooo much.

The only Mythics that hit weaker, out of the damage dealers
Nefertani but I like her death mark trait.
Pharos ra. But he used to be meta for souls
Shade of Zorn
The archduke. But he has a chance to kill
Umenath. But has a chance to kill
War
Wulfgarok. But if he kills you get a free 2nd kill
Zilopochtli. But if there’s a storm, he hits double
Gargantuan
King blood wood
Leio.
So today’s troop, is a bottom ten .
Congrats to those who pissed and moaned about a trait they didn’t even get to use in practice. So now we have yet another useless Mythic, this is why we can’t have nice things.

What if wand got silenced?
I’m happy they changed this another game killer into a dust.
I’m not interested why balance being taken over by a headless rooster running across options instead of any person who actually plays their own game. That’s not my part. I’m here to play whatever left after those balance changes and I’ve had enough.

So u have no counter to the silence therefore proving self wrong, u just said there are plethora of options, yet you cannot explain what to do next

Well as you are the one making the 1st move.
Then if he’s in your team, you can silence him 1st.
You sound very defeatist , surely as we the player is 1st move, we should always be thinking, attack.
Instead of, omg what if my move doesn’t work, and he silences me lol.
Just attack.

Well, aren’t this the very point with having “good” mythics around, that sometimes they will make you win the matches too?
You are free to think about the worst case scenarios, but thank God they do happen, so the troops will help you win the matches too.
