In early game, they can be okay, also serving as protectors for your [[Master Gremlin]]s, but later on it is recommended to leave them in the castle, as to not slow down your hero. However, they are good castle defenders, boasting low cost and natural magic resistance, and can still be used for final battles, as any slow unit, since it doesn't matter that much whether you're slowed down or not at the end of the game. | ||
Their 7-9 [[Attack]] and solid 10 [[Defense]] are top-tier. 30-35 [[Health]] is the highest of all level 3 troops. 4-5 [[Damage]] is slightly lacking, but they make up for it in their great resilience.
