If you have Elem and don’t get Infernus it would be a crying shame. ---

I’ll give the same advice I gave in the PC release thread - for general use, build around his second trait, not his third. Having used him in about 1750 invades so far, I’d say his talents are largely wasted if you try to use him in a methodical team that requires a lot of planning. You just want stuff that deals damage and clears space on the board at the same time, with something able to kick start Infernus. There are tons of combos that work like this, I’ll still occasionally attempt new configurations following this formula. Just keep in mind that he is almost _entirely_ RNG driven, and while usually (overwhelmingly) favorable you will occasionally give your opponent a setup that can cost you a troop or sometimes even a game. ---

Yikes. You’re better off waiting for crafting than trying to get a mythic troop with event keys. ---

Thanks devs for creating Infernus. Haven’t had this much Fun for a long time now. Hope to see more Mythics like him released tbh. 😁 ---

I was gonna say that… Salt would absorb all the magma and cause Infernus to run away screaming. ---

Perhaps he would be astonished at the lack of magma and try to fix it. ---

Save time is dreadful, he almost ripped my stash to zero and I have an awful feeling we’ll get euryali in the same two week timescale as infernus after pony. ---
