Lilith's Minions: Early Game Bosses

Early game bosses like the first empowered Hydra agents or corrupted demons serve as tests of your basic combat understanding. Focus on breaking their Guard, using environmental attacks, and concentrating fire. Don't be afraid to use your Heroic cards to burst them down quickly. Ensure your team has a good mix of single-target damage and some crowd control.

Cosmetics & Customization

While not directly impacting combat, cosmetics allow you to personalize your Hunter and other heroes. You can unlock new outfits, color palettes, and emotes through various means, including mission rewards, Friendship levels, and the in-game store. Express your style and make your team truly unique!

Tank & Defensive Heroes

Captain America and Ghost Rider are prime examples of tank and defensive heroes. Captain America can absorb immense damage and taunt enemies, while Ghost Rider uses his chains to control groups and deal damage. Build their decks with cards that grant Block, Taunt, and apply defensive buffs. Cards that draw enemy aggro or reposition foes are also highly valuable. Ensure they have ways to generate Heroism for their defensive Heroic abilities.
