About tactics summoners and tactics

When it comes to Tactics summoners, Reklah is one my favorites. This is a death summoner that offers great tactical advantage.

Using Reklah offers you two options when it comes to tactical advantage. The first option is that the health stat of two enemy units of your choice would be reduced by 2. The second option is that 2 friendly units will gain reflection shield. This means that the chosen units will not take damage from magic reflect, return fire, thorns or blast.

When Reklah is chosen as summoner, just before the battle starts, the player is given the opportunity to select which of those options to choose and which units it will be used on.

For me, the tactics Reklah provides are cool and I use them strategically. I mostly go for the option of depleting the health of 2 enemy units by 2. One of the units I usually select for that is the tank of my opponent. This is because people usually choose a formidable tank since it is the first line of attack, and depleting its health is one of the first steps in ensuring my victory.

Another enemy unit I go for is the unit that has the highest attack power. This is because that I know that consistent attacks from such a unit would cause serious damages for me. So depleting its health would make it easy for my units to eliminate it from battle.

The third category of enemy unit I go for is the unit that has the ability to heal others units every round. These are the kind of units that are crucial in battle and eliminating such units from my opponent's line up is usually a top priority for me.

On the other hand, going for the reflection shield on my units is a protective strategy. The amount of damages it could save my units from is massive.


Maneuvering Ambush

When it comes to Ambush, my go-to answer is the lookout ability. Lookout is the perfect counter for ambush in battle. When I anticipate ambush, I put a unit with the lookout ability in my team. So when there is an ambush against my units, the lookout ability minimizes my team suffers.


Countering tactical summoners

There are several tactical summoners that have become popular among players. Kelya Frendul for example offers the option of increasing the armor of its units. When an opponent uses such a summoner against me, I ensure to go for magic units. My magic units can bypass the armor no matter how many, and go straight for the health.

If a summoner that increases the magic attack of its units is being used by my opponent, I ensure to go for units that have massive health stats. This is because even though the magic attacks would deplete the health of my units, they would have enough health to stay in battle and fight.


Handling Buffs and debuffs

Of course, tactical summoners offer buffs and debuffs. It's up to the players to strategize and use them to their advantage and counter that of the enemy.

One of the tactical summoners I love using when facing an enemy that uses magic units a lot is Nomos. Nomos depletes the attack power of magic attack units by 2. So all I need to do is choose 2 enemy magic units to debuff and that gives me a good advantage.

If my opponent is using a summoner like prophet Rosa and has a lot of ranged attack units, I know that my opponent would probably go for the option that this summoner provides of increasing the ranged attack of units. I can counter that by using units that have a lot of armor and also using a summoner like Kelya Frendul that increases the armor of its units. That way, the armors serve as enough protection against the increased ranged attack of my opponent's units.
