The Urska occasionally go wandering when food in their home kingdom, Urskaya, becomes scarce. Barbearius is a well known wanderer, often found in Maugrim Woods, but even more Urska can be found in Stormheim, many of them working as mercenaries.
New Troop: Snowy Owl
Snowy Owls are found in the northern tundra from Stormheim, right through the Glacial Peaks. They hunt at night with their excellent night-vision, and have been known on occasion to take down a large deer for food!
Please note this Event only applies to Steam, iOS and Android versions of the game.
The owl looks good, EXCEPT that he has magic link along with a spell that destroys all purple gems… I’m totally not a fan of that little “synergy”
But it is 7 gems in a condensed board as the purple will be gone. So if you use it with a yellow heavy board, take out purple and add yellow it is a better chance. Would also be good to cast following a purple generator like Giant Spider or Green Slime. Spider turns red to purple, then owl destroys the purple and spawns blue. Might be enough to get the Spider back up while making a ton of purple mana for a Kraken or a Mab.
I found it odd at first as well, but if the idea if to use it in a purple mana team then it does make sense, since Destroying the mana still charges troops, and normal matches get boosted by Magic Link. I have a team I’m keen to try it in for this exact reason.
Also yay! New troops during holidays! Thanks to @Sirrian and @Nimhain for doing all this on a public holiday!
Hush! If it were blue, then we wouldn’t be able to mix it with Mab!
In fact, both the cards feel specifically tailored to be a “Hail Queen Mab” team~
Just leave its colors alone…
