So maybe put Van Kane first and cast Dark priestess once on him. Then just kill with skulls

Except the “HINT” still says “Steal Life from an enemy for yourself”. And then the new team has zero troops that possess Life Steal, from the Life Steal kingdom.
What is supposed to be the theme in this team?

“Ghulvania is a bad kingdom when it comes to Skull Reduction, so win quickly!”

Last weeks were very easy, but this one corrected the trend. Very weak team in epic trials
Van Kane up top. Can do true damage skull pokes. Remove armor of enemies with Flesh Horror incase Van Kane doesn’t like to do true damage pokes. Beef up Golem incase you lose Van Kane. Beef up Van Kane’s attack with Priestess and do skulls. If you lose Van Kane, continue beefing Golem.

Might be a good time to put one of those pet orbs to use and skip the headache of the last few fights.

Buy in for this one?
Invasion? If they kept the thresholds same as last time, it is 584 PPP on average. Tier 4 scores around 560 - 592 points depending Valraven spawn luck. A few tier 5s may be needed from some warriors. This is based on a mythic Event Captain btw. Edit: Event Captain ascension doesn’t affect the scoring in Invasion. As long as you use Event Captain in your team, you will get double kills from Towers.

The loot table for troops in Ghulvania event chests is expected to look like this:
| Chance | Amount | Troop |
|---|---|---|
| 0.11% | 1 | Draakulis, Morthani’s Darkness, The Gemini, The Gray King |
| 3.2% | 1 | Crimson Bat, Dullahan, The Flesh Horror, The Ghost Queen, Umberwolf |
| 12% | 1 | Avina, Carmella, Deathclaw, Morthani’s Will, Nosferatu, Sanguinia, Van Kane, Vlad the Unsated, Werebat, Werewolf |
| 21.6% | 1 | Dark Priestess, Blood Elf, Flaming Skeleton, Flesh Golem, Grave Knight, Vargouille |
| 21.6% | 2 | Banshee, Bat Swarm, Corpse Mare, Dread Steed, Vanpire Lord |
| 21.49% | 3 | Ghoul, Villager, Wraith, Zombie |
Remaining 20% is various resources. Data is based on community observation, there is no reliable official information, even in-game ads have been incorrect in the past. If you plan to open event chests, wait till the weekend for the community to find irregularities, this significantly reduces your risk of getting burned.

A mythic captain makes a difference? I thought you just had to have the captain present?
Correct, I’m mixing stuff up with Journey. Trying to do too many things at once with my pipe brain seems impossible.

Well I thoroughly disliked that trial. I don’t remember all of them but it’s probably my least favorite since Khetar.
I used the given lineup for the first 3 trials. It worked alright with Flesh Golem tanking up front.
For 4th and 5th I swapped Van Kane up front because I wasn’t dealing damage fast enough. It seemed like a crapshoot each time because Dark Priestess’ spell could backfire badly. At least it happened early in battle so I didn’t lose much time.
Then in the 5th battle, I had a gnome replace Flaming Skeleton. Ugh… I would have won that time if it didn’t. Good board, favorable skull spawns, etc. But that stupid gnome didn’t run away and Van Kane couldn’t kill it quick enough without double skull damage. I won the next battle at least.

Took like 20 restarts but doable, still

Still working on it. I lost count of the restarts.
Its extremely rng heavy and they give you one of the few troops in the entire game that does damage to your own troops. The hint does not apply in any way (for you) and the flimsy Barrier mechanic is pointless with Burn in play. There’s a troll working for them now.

Awful epic trials. Last week I didn’t lose a single troop at all. This time I already lost the first battle several times and only managed to get to the second epic trial after a few hours of playing.
Could have reached 1000 trophies in that time instead while playing explore …
