Card Abilties

Wild Strike
When this unit attacks, add 1 damage to the target for each rolled, instead of each rolled.

Unit Background

Shonk is an ice troll, a species oft recruited into the Tundra Orc ranks. It’s incredibly intelligent for an ice troll, not that one might understand that, watching Shonk launch itself into combat. As a non-orc, it might not have the right to claim a blood type, but anyone watching it would classify it as the epitome of hot.

Card Strategy

Despite its ridiculously high attack strength (which is fake), the real power of Shonk is its life to cost ratio. Shonk is a walking wall, and at the time of this writing (version 1.57) it has the highest life to magic ratio in the game for a unit. The real use of Shonk is to be a protector of the Tundra Orcs' advance, blocking key spots, being a gate or a flank blocker, allowing Grognack and / or Smashers to advance.
Its attack still can’t be ignored though, being more than functional to deal with many threats.
