New Units Arrive: The Disruptors



Shadow Watch
Vision control is the key to victory, and Shadow Watches specialize in it. In attacks, they prioritize detector units to keep enemy short of detection. They can also engage in combat with a well-timed flash bomb to blind all enemies in a large area, rendering them unable to target cloaked units.



Shock Hierophant
Being an Atlac creature with great electric power, the Shock Hierophant can be quite stunning — in many ways. Upon entering combat, the Shock Hierophant unleashes a raging thunder blast to hit enemies on sight. The targets hit will be stunned and have their armor greatly reduced for a duration.



Sapphire Spider
As an artful hunter, the Sapphire Spider is always prepared. The cobweb it weaves is exquisite but deadly. Activating its ability, the Sapphire Spider spins the web towards enemies to stun and cripple them. The web lasts for a long duration and continuously stuns enemies that step in.



Themed bundles that individually contains one new unit and its skin will also be at 25% discount. Commanders can purchase each one of them with eternium ingots.

The bundles will be available after patch and expire on May 24.
