> [@Fifthelement](#): > > I’d first like to see how it goes. i actually think 3dmg per will be totally fine: defense decks are never good at too much looping to begin with so i dont expect it be too tiring to fight against (not anything worse then some units we already have to struggle against) and as for offense… it will be so much fun! let it be 😉 ---

Why not a 25% to Summon Tentacle (new Common troop) when an ally die? ---

Oh. I guess I don’t need Kraken until 2.2 then. ---

well, not wasting resources on Kraken until update…2 skill points per turn is near to futile for me ---

Don’t even have the Kraken yet but I was salivating at the chance to build a loop team using the old trait. New trait…dunno if I’ll even use him in the meantime 😒 ---

> [@Fifthelement](#): > > How about giving it a spin and seeing how it goes before passing judgement? I did give it a spin… and had to crash out a few matches that I’d won… It was fun-ish to use - though couldn’t see the effect taking place very well, which was far less satisfying than seeing damage numbers. My judgement is based on the obvious comparison to Moloch, whose trait is similar, and just not as good - so either Kraken should be brought down in line, or even better, Moloch should be buffed (or just re-done, lots of stat-debuff troops out there)… ---

Does the Mimic put anyone else in mind of sapient pearwood? Also, I’m not sure the Ship Cannon text quite describes the spell. It says “deals X damage to 3 random enemies,” but to me that implies 3 distinct enemies. It looks like the spell actually lobs X damage 3 times, randomly; and can hit the same enemy multiple times. Is it just me that reads it like that? ---

Just to know, Sharkey trait speaks of merfolk, since he is the only one i assume more will come out with kingdom event right? more importantly, there’s no kind of bonus for a Rouge team? i’ve checked team bonus post but there’s no trace… ---

thanks @Tacet ! for bonus question, as @DonBoba said,was ment more over team bonus like having 4 troop from the same kindgom or same race (4 goblins / 4 dragons). it’s been a while since we have rouge troops, even if just a few, with this addiction having a rouge team makes more sense, so I was wondering ---
