Wind Mages are the pillar of the deck, a unit you always want. You always want to have at least 1 active Wind Mage on the board, it doesn’t matter what is going on with the game, they are always very useful, while also having solid stats.
Wind Mages could easily have their own guide, but here are the most important uses:
- Moving a unit away from blocking a friendly gate.
- Protecting a Wind Archer with another unit after it attacks.
- Moving a unit out of harm's way after it attacked.
- Placing a unit in front of a unit that just attacked for an extra, single flank attack.
- Moving a unit of yours to reach an extra space that it wouldn’t be able to otherwise.
Don’t fear to just blindly summon a Wind Mage behind a gate, as you will need to have one for Mind Witches to copy. But even regardless of Mind Witches, you will never regret having a few of them around. They combo with everything!
