As you get further in the game, enemies have much more Life and poison becomes fairly irrelevant.
I’d go Blue/Yellow or Blue/Red. You could also go Red/Yellow, or even Dragon (Red/Yellow/minusBrown), to maximise casts for Valkyrie.

Perfect, thanks very much. Will now go experiment. Will be quite nice to have a new troop involved really, had that previous team for quite some time for all game modes.
Ok I lied, one more question! Mab’s skill, it Mana Burns people, is that not in conflict with EK? If I have it right, Mab’s skill is better the more Mana my opponent has, but surely with EK my aim is to keep the enemies’ Mana as low as possible, so it makes Mab’s skill less effective?
Or do i have the all wrong?
It does make it slightly less effective, but this is mitigated by a couple of things: you can cast Mab first, and Mab hurts enough even without the Mana Burn. Also, EK’s move can be held to drain them when they’re maxed or an equally opportune moment (i.e. having just used Mab on them already).
Furthermore a main reason to have them both in the first place is the Stun + Freeze combo.

Ok thanks guys, can I just confirm what the stun, freeze combo is? Does Mab’s skill also freeze people then?
last trait of Mab freezes random enemy at 4+ gem matches,
freeze = if that unit casts or skull-hit or that player matches gems which match any of the frozen unit colors - if any of those actions would grant an extra turn - it will not count towards an extra turn
EK stuns with his spell as well as with his last trait,
stun - unit’s traits are disabled
basically it renders enemy unable to extra turn as well as disables the traits, its a good combo, skull damage reductions and other annoying traits wouldnt work anymore (except of impervious, thich head which doesnt get stunned, insulated cannot be frozen)
Ah ok, so a little way down the line for me as both EK and Mab just have the one trait currently. Wondered what i was missing re: the stun! 
Will focus on Explore to get them both traited fully.
you can plan how to spend glory and buy some arcanes, if you like spoilers 
soon some of what you need may show up
if i may suggest - get 2nd trait for EK then focus on mab traits

OK, last question today, hopefully. In that thread about traitstones it says things like:
“01/30 Blighted Lands: Red/Purple Ultra-Rare and Red/Brown Legendary”
What do the colours mean? I know you get traits in the Glory packs, as well as a troop etc, but don’t think the Red/Purple Utra-Rare listed above is related to that?
Thanks!
The Red/Purple Ultra-Rare means there will be a bundle with that troop and the corresponding Red/Purple Arcane - they always match. The legendary is less relevant since they’re not in bundles.
Means the next one that says Blue/Purple Ultra-Rare can be of use here.
Ah ok, and where are the Legendary’s found then?
They can be found in Event Keys while the event is still live (since they’re bound to the kingdom of the event).

Courage traitstones too many. How can farm them easily? 60 runic fire OMG.
pridelands, if you can consider persistent farming easy - explore it is…
Lots of suggestions, but for PVP I have one that might help you get easier teams to beat while you are setting up a better invade team. I really have found that if you set your defense team to be a lower score, you are more likely ( not definitively) to get easier to beat teams. Just a thought, and I know there are those out there who disagree.

Hey gang!
Ok, I got some Glory packs today and got Mab’s second Trait unlocked, so have the third still to go on Mab and EK. I did get some Gem chests though as had been saving crystals, and managed to pick up Dragon Soul, and Great Maw. I think i have seen mention of them both as good troops to use?

Yes. They’re both bonkers. Dragon Soul is above-average as an exploder even without a team full of Dragons to power it up, even better with the Dragons. Maw is the second-easiest one-hit-kill in the game behind Bone Dragon and is very satisfying to use.
Ok cool, just need to work out how to slot them in the team now!
Man I am really struggling to work out a team now. Dragon Soul is red and Purple, Red covered by Valk and Purple by Queen Mab. Great Maw is Brown and Yellow, Brown covered by EK and Yellow by Valk again.
Was hoping I could drop Soothsayer to slot at least one in but his Green/Brown combo doesn’t help much.
Should I just be creating a “B” team with Soul and Maw + two more? Team A working so well I kinda am unsure what to do here.
