Is anybody using this guy? Any feedback? I’m curious about him…

Sorry, no. He’s using blue and yellow, just like the Frost Giant AND THE FROST GIANT HAS A BROKEN HELMET SO HE NEEDS MORE LOVE. There, you know it now.

I made him mythical, but haven’t bothered using him yet. Distribution damage like that is pretty bad in 1.0.8 now that some traits just heal/armor for one per turn.

Celestasia or Silent One are just so much better in comparison to what he does.

He’s interesting. I think his boost ratio is 3 damage per yellow gem destroyed.

I’ve got him in a 4-giant Stormheim team, and the bonuses (+6 attack, +6 life) add up.

He is finally a decent giant to feed Jarl’s yellow to. So he can charge quickly.

I do plan to try him out with a magic based team around Soothsayer, but so many teams come down to just stacking skull damage right now, that it’s not worth giving up the City/Unit bonuses.

I’m using him in my Stormheim team. I like him. Does good damage if you blow up the right column. The boost for the yellow gems destroyed is x3, so a column with 3 yellows adds 9 damage. Not bad.
