Unit Background
Cruel Fanessa is Queen Maldaria’s most loyal lieutenant. She is hated by those under her command, but fear of her sadistic glee in the torment of others keeps them in line. When the Queen elected to purge the disloyal during the civil war, it was Fanessa to whom she turned, and the fervor with which the elf fulfilled her queen’s orders, sent terrified shockwaves throughout Phoenix Elf society.
Card Strategy
Often a favorite champion of the Phoenix Elves because she’s just so versatile. In theory, she should only be good versus melee units with low attack strength. But in reality, against those units, she is just devastating, and against the rest still performs quite well. Her decent attack and high life allow her to move forward quite carelessly, often cornering ranged units into melee combat where they lose value. Fanessa is an extremely efficient damage soaker, something Phoenix Elves desperately need. She is good to be part of the "Maldaria cycle" as she is one of the best units to protect Maldaria thanks to her high life and her champion status.
She is not as good versus high-attack units but she still never disappoints, making her a very safe bet to summon in all match-ups.
