TortolaElder

Мудрец Тортолы

Mage

Kamehamehaactive, area, hits enemies

Tortola Elder chants for up to 2 s and unleashes a 468-wide shockwave that damages every enemy in its path. The longer the chant, the bigger the hit, up to 250 / 450 / 700 magical damage. Cooldown 10 / 8 / 6 s.

Role: a ranged area-damage mage for the mid and late game. Keep him in the far back so he can finish the chant safely, and the wide wave will cut straight through a stacked enemy formation. He fits lineups going for the Human and Mage synergies.

Synergies

Human · species

Synergy effect: (3) At the end of the round, gain 2 EXP. (6) When winning, if at least one allied Human piece survives on the field, gain additional EXP equal to "player level − 2". Both synergy effects can trigger simultaneously.

How to play

Human is an economic synergy: it does not strengthen the fight directly but speeds up leveling, which means more slots on the board and better odds of expensive heroes. (3) is reached with inexpensive heroes from the early game and already gives steady experience every round. (6) needs the expensive pieces and rewards wins with a surviving Human, so it is taken when the board is already strong and you want to pull ahead in level faster.

Mage · class

Synergy effect: (3) Reduces the magic resistance of all enemy pieces by 30%. (6) Reduces the magic resistance of all enemy pieces by 80%. (9) Reduces the magic resistance of all enemy pieces by 85%; in addition, at the start of the battle enemy pieces receive a debuff: they are frozen when they take magical damage. The freeze duration equals the actual magical damage taken divided by 300, in seconds. Class trait: each surviving allied Mage on the board grants Mages 10% mana, up to 60%. Freeze: the piece cannot attack, move, or use abilities.

How to play

Mages are a magical damage synergy: (3) noticeably lowers the magic resistance of all enemies, (6) almost removes it, and (9) adds a freeze on magical damage — a rare late-game option. The class is wide, with many cheap heroes, so (3) comes together in the first rounds, (6) in the mid game, and the top threshold is closed by expensive Mages. Mages need a sturdy front line in front of them, but their trait builds mana quickly while many Mages are alive on the board.
