Card Abilties
Summoned by Fire
When paying costs to summon this unit, you must also destroy a friendly unit. Replace the destroyed unit with this unit.
Unit Background
Elut-Bal is a frenzied demon that revels in carnage and death, and has found itself in happy company with Itharia’s undead lord. So unrequited is its thirst for bloodshed, that it will happily accept Ret-Talus’ own troops as offering, so long as blood is spilled in its name.
Card Strategy
To finalize the trend of economic inefficiency in its champions, the Fallen Kingdom has Elut-Bal. While definitely not economically efficient, his mere existence in your deck is a major threat to your opponent, especially to their summoner. Any friendly unit, for an expensive price, can become a 6/6. Which, thanks to Undead Archers may actually be harder to kill than 6 life would normally seem. You can even do something crazy like summon Elut-Bal, Blood Summon twice from him and surround the opponent’s summoner for the kill. While something like that may seem unlikely, the constant threat of that happening is a real problem for your opponent, sometimes demanding sub-optimal plays from them to compensate for this potential threat.
