Lancer

4 star cost - Single source - treat as unconfirmed

What it is

The end of the cavalry line and the only four-star unit community sources say you can reach purely by evolving. A charge unit built to kill archers and Flaming Archers.

How to use it

Use it as a decapitation squad: swing behind and charge the ranged units, and land Rush for extra damage. It has two hard limits - it cannot climb walls, and charging polearms head-on kills it.

Matchups

Built purely to kill ranged units. Two hard limits: it cannot climb walls, so leave it out when defending a point, and charging polearms head-on kills it.

What creators say

  • The only four-star unit reachable by evolution, and it can charge anything that is not a polearm.

  • The best anti-archer unit; it loses to stacked Spartans and polearms, cannot climb walls, and should be left out when defending a point.

  • Do not use Lancer on defence objectives, because it cannot climb the walls.
