What are Heroic Missions?
Heroic missions are missions unlocked upon obtaining 50 sigils. They need to be cleared once per faction, so aim to get at least one leader per faction as you progress through the game. The heroic missions are more difficult than their non-heroic counterparts, often employing a gimmick on the map or featuring an initial push that you need to defend.
Why do Heroic Missions?
Clearing a heroic mission rewards you with 3 tomes of experience for your troops as well as a sigil upon completing it once. You need to clear them 4 more times, each with different leaders from the remaining factions. Upon clearing them, you receive 300 coins for your efforts. It is quite rewarding and will be your main source of income in the end game.

Recommended Minis
Harpies
Harpies excel at countering the giant abomination.
 | Infectious Swipes BEST Gain Poison. |
 | Trinket Collectors Gain the Miner trait. Cost increased by 1. |
 | Talon Dive Deal double damage on 1st attack. |
Whelp Eggs
Whelps excel at countering the giant abomination.
 | Rookery When one egg hatches, the others hatch immediately. |
 | Flame Burst BEST Damage nearby enemies when hatching. |
 | Chromatic Plating Eggs gain Taunt. |
Defias Bandits
Defias bandits are amazing minis capable of generating value depending on the mini they're up against. They deploy stealthed, so the enemy doesn't even know they are coming. They stun upon hitting, and they are especially effective when used near a tower, allowing the tower to land hits while the enemy is stunned. They can also stun bosses, making them quite useful, especially if the boss has a lot of range.
Unlocking their poison talent increases their damage, further demoralizing enemy players who see their high-cost mini go down to a 1-cost mini. Additionally, they can be used to pick up chests and for cycling minis at a very low cost.
 | Deadly Poison BEST Gain Poison. |
 | Pick Lock Earn an extra +2 Gold when opening chests. |
 | Last Resort On death, Stun the target for 3 seconds. |
Darkspear Troll
The Darkspear Troll is one of the best anti-air units in the game. It boasts excellent range and damage, often one-shotting flying units. Additionally, it is surprisingly bulky, thanks to its regeneration talent.
 | Big Bad Voodoo BEST Regenerate 10% health every second. |
 | Headhunting On kill, increase Attack and Movement speed by 10%. Stacks to 50%. |
 | Serpent Sting Gain Poison. |
Quilboar
The Quilboar is a top-tier unbound mini with numerous uses. It can collect faraway chests, distract bosses from your advancing army, deny gold from enemy Kobolds, and tank towers. Unlocking its 'Tunnel Vision' talent enables faster deployment, providing a significant advantage. Its versatility allows it to excel in any deck, contributing to its high-tier ranking.
 | Bristleback Deal a small amount of damage to Melee attackers. |
 | Tunnel Vision BEST Deploy much more quickly. |
 | Bramble Burst Inflict Poison on nearby enemies when emerging. |
Deck Build
hogger-deck-92epuHow to Clear
This stage is surprisingly easy to clear, even though it's a hard stage. Simply manage the Giant Abomination on the left lane, and you should easily clear it. Units like Harpies, Whelps, and Defias Bandits make light work of the Abomination. Don't let it reach the meeting stone! Then, focus on taking the tower on the right and advancing your army towards the boss. Distract the boss with Quilboar when they are in range, and it should go down quickly.
