Overview
Description[]
- Shadow Insect is an inexpensive and versatile third-era Shadow creature that is very strong in large numbers. Its swiftness ability makes it a highly mobile combatant, while its Soul Shock ability allows it to address flying units or play a partial ranged role. It is often used in PvP as a support unit and light raider, and when buffed it can nearly-one shot many large creatures. It does not have a large amount of health, so it is best to use another creature as a tank while the Insect takes out anything the enemy attempts to build or summon.
