Unit Background

Phoenix Elf smiths craft arrows with heads made from firestone. This highly flammable ammunition allows elf archers to use their species’ natural mastery of flames to guide their arrows with frightening accuracy. This magical assist more than makes up for the porous firestone’s relative imperfections.

Card Strategy

Ember Archers are the utility damage of the Phoenix Elves. Do not count on them as straight-out combat units as they are not very efficient cost wise. Don't expect to win ranged wars with them.

Their power rests on the ability to to do 1 damage without even attacking, just moving. This is important for the Phoenix Elves as they do a lot of circumstantial damage and often enemy units are left with just 1 life. The Ember Archers are great to finish them off without having to use an attack. Often allowing you to attack a unit that was being protected with just a 1 life unit.

Having said that, they are still good to use in "Maldaria's cycle", and they are quite efficient in Spirit of the Phoenix turns.
