New Champion: Bran Stark
Greetings House Leaders,
The warg awakens within Bran Stark as he and his direwolf Summer join the battle. Read on to learn more about this new Legendary Champion, and play now to test out this Champion’s might!
New Champion
Bran Stark
Rarity: Legendary
Faction: Stark
Class: Idealist Strategist (Direwolf Beast as Summer)
Gem Color: Green
Bran Stark commands the power to warg into his beloved direwolf, Summer, using the new REINFORCE mechanic. This means that even if Summer is defeated, Bran will return to the battlefield as he was before warging, and can continue to utilize this strong bond between himself and the beast throughout the battle. Alongside Stark allies, Bran and Summer are a powerful ICE-building and attack duo-in-one against the enemies who wish them harm.
Skill
Bran
A Dream Of Summer – Bran wargs into Summer, REINFORCING the battle with extra HP and Stamina.
Summer
The Warg's Wolf – Summer strikes an enemy. Summer then deals an additional amount of Damage for each ICE on the target.
Passive
Bran
Follow The Raven – When a Stark team member uses their Skill, Bran has a chance to afflict a random enemy with ICE. At higher levels, this also triggers when an Ally Gem is destroyed and Bran gains a Hit Buff.
Trait
Summer
Instincts Of The Beast – Summer has an innate increased Dodge Chance. At higher levels, When Summer Dodges an enemy Skill, that enemy is afflicted with ICE.
Leader (Bran)
My Dreams Are Different – Anytime an ally REINFORCES the battle, Bran (or Summer if he has warged) afflicts all enemies with ICE. At higher levels, he gains Stamina.
Champion Strategy
Bran and Summer provide power in different ways. As Bran, use the visions of the Raven to apply ICE to enemies. Then when the time is right, use Bran’s skill to warg into Summer and let tooth and claw bring foes to their knees.
Synergies
Three Champion pairs:
Ned Stark & Catelyn Stark – Ned and Catelyn act as protective parents to their son, Bran, with the Stark patriarch diverting damage away and the matriarch healing her children’s wounds.
Robb Stark & Talisa Stark – Bran can work alongside his brother Robb to build up ICE on their enemies, while also striking hard and true with Robb’s Skill and Summer’s attack. Talisa keeps her family healthy and strong with her HEALING and Tenacity buffs.
Jon Snow (King in the North) & Ghost – Jon and his brother Bran can quickly build ICE upon their enemies and build up their stamina to continuously attack, while Ghost and Summer can pile on damage when the enemy is brittle.
Bran excels with his Stark family, but also benefits from those who share close bonds as Ally Pairs or with team members that can REINFORCE the battlefield. Bran can use the power of ally gems to apply additional ICE.
Best Team:
Bran Stark (Leader)
Catelyn Stark
Ned Stark
Robb Stark
Talisa Stark
With a full party of Starks and 2 ally gems, Bran can bring the cold from North of the wall to all foes. Ned, Catelyn, and Talisa will ensure safety while Summer tears through any foes foolish enough to battle a direwolf.
Best Battle Modes
Raids
Alliance Legendary Assault
Bran excels in combat against foes who will become BRITTLE. The swiftly shifting forces of campaign battles and events may sometimes leave him wanting. But none can deny his power when ICE builds up.
