I’ve pushed this announcement out about 10 hours earlier than normal, as our social (twitter & facebook) posts seem to have gone live early. (and I don’t want folks following a broken link!) ---

Yeah but this one answers the question no one was asking, “Why can’t we have a mana drain troop loop with _both_ of Kraken’s colors?” ---

Love the new card but does this mean no new land??? ---

Quite the opposite. This one is from the new kingdom, Bright Forest. ---

I understand that but should there not be more than just one reveled ---

This is the troop available for glory. I highly doubt they would release a troop from Bright Forest without opening the kingdom. ---

> [@Rickygervais](#): > > Wow i almost missed that thread, im not happy about another boring mana drain exactly like nyx It’s strange how differently we look at this topic. I couldn’t care less for the CPU, as long I get a strong troop I can use to invade with, I am fine. _(Good for people like me, perhaps.)_ So you rather want to get good troops that is only good for human to use and not CPU? Your statement is almost like it would be better to not get any troops or another useless troop. ---

What i mean is mana drain is not fun Same for devour and any 1 shot kill mechanic ---

Are you not using Famine in some of the Guild Wars days, even a few PvP teams? Its extremely effective and fun to use. ---

Yup and it’s why i am happy to see the new mana shield, it will leave room for more strategy then “who is the first to fill his troop then drain the other?” ---
