The King of Spell specializes in fortifying your stronghold and dealing massive AoE damage. This approach revolves around upgrading your core structure as the main offensive engine, converting allied units into fuel for power-boosting cards. A fully upgraded base can annihilate entire armies independently.

Essential Perks

Reach 20% hit chance through Ruthless (Level 4) and Ingenious (Level 3). The latter grants +15 base tiers, transforming your stronghold into an overwhelming defensive core capable of massive damage output.

Tactical Approach

Prioritize Progress as your rival and position your stronghold defensively. Channel all upgrades into your base as the singular win condition.

Your upgraded fortress unleashes devastating AoE strikes capable of obliterating hordes. All units and structures become disposable resources for Overhaul and Offering cards, with Overhaul taking precedence when available.

Maintain only Thieves to cluster enemies and create optimal AoE striking zones.

Augment Strategy

Secure augments doubling base attack speed – the first is crucial, the second optional. Alternative options include critical enhancements, gold multipliers, or extra rerolls. During multi-element waves, obtain and upgrade Temples using Overhaul for late-game dominance.

Loot Focus

Target Spell armies for sacrifice opportunities and base upgrades. Utilize Progress for Overhaul advantages, Greed for investment boosts, and Nature for duplication mechanics. After year 20, prioritize Earthworks through Stone alliances during multi-element phases.

Alliance Synergy

Progress is non-negotiable for this tactic. Nature and Nothing provide reliable support. No forbidden alliances exist, allowing flexible counterplay against opponents.

Victory Principles

Convert all non-essential units and structures into upgrade materials. Your fortress should remain the exclusive damage dealer – avoid diversifying into conventional army compositions.
