I only have 11 troops left that aren’t at max level and only 8 of those need 10 or more levels. I finally feel like I can build teams that don’t contain Valkyrie and I’m loving it.
Right now I’m running a Royals team:
Emperor Khorvash / Lion Prince / Queen Ysabelle / Lady Anariel
Lady Anariel fills blue and green, which fills Ysabelle, which in turn fills everybody partially. Lion Prince explodes a row which also helps a bit. Overall, mana isn’t much of an issue and the life/armor buffs from Ysabelle and Anariel more than offset the loss of Valk.
Is it optimal? Probably not, but it sure as hell is fun!
Yeah, I still use TDS but not really for the souls. And while it’s true Valk still has utility, it feels like I’ve been using her since the very beginning. I just can’t use her anymore, she’s old and worn out.
