You mean Pharaoh Khafru, right? That’s also known to cause the game to lock up, see here:

> [@\[Need more info\] Khafru last trait causing board freeze and troops unable to cast spell](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/need-more-info-khafru-last-trait-causing-board-freeze-and-troops-unable-to-cast-spell/84872):

> Platform, device version and operating system: android Screenshot or image: What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened: khafru’s last trait sometimes will make the board freeze (gems can’t be selected) and cast button remain gray even with mana full. How often does this happen? When did it begin happening? not quite often, but it can happen at any time, opponents don’t matter. Steps to make it happen again i’m using essencia, stellarix, khafru x2. no idea how…

It’s being “investigated”, which means if the community can’t provide full video footage clearly demonstrating the issue, possibly in several situations, it won’t even get forwarded to the developers.
