Card Abilties

Undying Devotion
After this unit is destroyed, roll a die. If a is rolled and this unit is in a discard pile, add it to its owner's hand.

Unit Background

Few butchers are worshiped by their cattle, but Baron Daemar always keeps a few hundred head of humans in his castle for feeding and for battle. These warped, broken cultists bear hideous scars, testament to the number of times they have been cut down in battle, only to find the blood oaths they swore to Daemar could not be broken by death.

Card Strategy

As strange as it may sound, this is the damage soaker of the Crimson Order. Undying Devotion is a very powerful ability, and also allows you to be quite careless with this unit. In combination with Royal Warriors, Devout Cultists allow the Crimson Order to flood the board with a lot of efficient life point units, using that life to protect and block important spots and other units, like your summoner, Sacral Priests and champions.

It’s recommended to summon all copies of this card, all games, preferably used as Faithful Servants to protect the summoner at the end of a turn. Its attack is pretty low but because the body is so disposable and it is also a ranged unit, you can still position it in the worst spots to target a valuable enemy unit like their summoner, without risking much in return. Often therefore this is your best poke unit.
