Minions are creatures from within the Heroic Universe that are used to deal damage to opponents’ Minions, Portals and enemy Bosses. Each Minion has their own special feature and role in battle, so make sure to read each Minion description to figure out how to best use them.
There are 5 rarities when it comes to Minion cards:
- Common
- Rare
- Epic
- Legendary
- Mythic
Each Minion belongs to one of the 3 Worlds:
- Arcana
- Void
- Realm
Descriptions, Mana Costs and Tips for each Minion are listed below by World and Mana cost:
ARCANA MINIONS
Revenant - Legendary Card
- Summoning this ancient warrior will consume all of your available mana, his health and damage determined by the amount of mana spent.
Mana - 1
World - Arcana
Tip: You’ll get a 3 mana stronger Revenant if you combine Rhii’s Power Spell with Revenant. Mana Wraith, on the other hand, increases Revenant’s cost without buff him, so that’s a combo you might want to avoid. Making the largest Revenant possible might not be the best idea - remember that you can always draw a card for 5 mana if you are out of them. Optimize by summoning a Revenant of just the right size you need for your current board situation!
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition… armed with arcane lasers.
Swordsman - Common Card
- A fierce warrior ready to do battle.
Mana - 2
World - Arcana
Tip: The best bang for your buck. A 2 mana card that has decent health and damage. A staple in all decks!
A cut above the rest
Wisp Mother - Epic Card
- Mother sends out a healing wisp to the closest ally. Wisp returns if the unit being healed dies.

Mana - 3
World - Arcana
Tip: Magic Construct knows no bounds, play him with low cost cards to buff his health and damage faster!
He causes a lot of bugs for us. We hope you enjoy using him.
Reflector - Rare Card
- Armed with mirror shield that reflects 50% of enemy ranged attacks.
Mana - 3
World - Arcana
Tip: Great vs ranged projectile units (Amazon, Marksman, Primal Spirit)
“Always keeps the mirror shield facing out so he doesn’t see his face”
Blade Dancer - Common Card
- Skilled and fast, Blade Dancer dices her enemies to pieces using swift double attacks.
Mana - 3
World - Arcana
Tip: Can stand her ground versus swarm units like Rolling Rocks and Undead Horde thanks to her double attacks. Double attacks also help her get rid of the Valen’s Holy Shield quickly. Her speed allows her to close the gap on ranged units and give you minion-spawning territory close to the enemy for agressive decks.
She makes her own smoothies and a perfect salsa.
Rune Cannon - Legendary Card

A glorified shepherd.

Mana - 10
World - Arcana
Tip: Apply to a problem. Problem Solved
*Don’t you know who I am? I’m the Juggernaut!” *
REALM MINIONS

One developer said, “They’re so cute I’m gonna die”

Mana - 4
World - Realm
Tip: Goblin Marksman has the longest attack range in the game!
Shoot first, ask questions later
Shield Bearer - Common Card
- Armed with a heavy shield, this dwarf lasts long in battle.
Mana - 4
World - Realm
Tip: He moves slow but use that to your advantage. Have him slowly push the lane into your favor.
Small in stature but big where it counts
Fearless Leader - Epic Card
- Once spawned, inspires your Minions to attack by increasing their damage and movement speed.
Mana - 4
World - Realm
Tip: His primal shout + fury can be a dangerous combo.
He’s shouting because he constantly thinks he’s being eaten by a tiger.
Trinity - Legendary Card
- A mystical sorceress who summons replicas of herself in other lanes to confuse enemies. If any of the replicas dies, they all die.
Mana - 4
World - Realm
Tip: Try not to dwell on the fact that if a replica dies they all die. They are all very strong and in each lane!
What does Trinity the Magician do when she’s angry? Pull out her hare
Crow - Epic Card
- Crow darts away every time she is attacked as she rains razor feathers on her foes.
Mana - 4
World - Realm
Tip: Try to give your Crow enough retreating territory so that she can deliver special attacks as she tubmles back - once she is up against a wall, she can no longer tumble. Use her against units that deal low damage per hit, especially melee minions - so that her special tumble damage procs more often. She is pretty good against Blade dancer, as she tumbles back before the Blade Dancer can land her second hit. She is also great at annoying your enemy’s Executioner :). Also, she does pretty well against Nature Guardian, as can retaliate from a very long range in case lightning damage caught her through other units.
Don’t call her a Wildling. Don’t be that person.
Immortal Knight - Legendary Card
- Channels immortality right before death, becoming invulnerable for a few seconds.
Mana - 5

- Upon spawn, Pixie emits secret spores that sleep all enemies in her lane. They awake when they take damage.
Mana - 5
World - Realm
Tip: Completely stops a huge push.
I do believe in pixies! I do! I do! …You’re welcome
Crystal Colossus - Rare Card
- Pushes enemies away while lumbering onward. Sacrifices himself to deliver a deadly payload to the enemy portal.
Mana - 5
World - Realm
Tip: Colossus is very tanky, use him as a shield with ranged units with strong attacks to clear the lane easily. While Colossus is marching and pushing enemy units, he’s one step ahead of his melee allies receiving all the damage. How cool is that? Wait for your Colossus to slowly collect enemy units into one small bunch, then demolish them with an area damage spell, Amazon or Hellfiend. In addition to being a tank, Crystal Colossus is a formidable siege weapon. With proper buffs, he can deal absurd damage to the enemy portal. Try to think of all the ways you can buff him and keep him alive until he reaches his target.
Anybody bring the harpoons and tow cables?
Amazon - Epic Card
- Throws enchanted spears that pierce through Minions hitting all enemies in their path.
Mana - 6
World - Realm
Tip: A mid game Card best paired with tanky units to protect her.
Her spears pierce through enemies armor but her eyes pierce through your soul.
Nature Guardian - Legendary Card
- Armed with an elemental staff that deals electric stun attacks that bounce to every enemy Minion in lane. Damage is distributed per Minion.
Mana - 6
World - Realm
Tip: Best used when you have breathing room. Use Nature Guardian to keep up the pressure with his multiple hit shock/stun attacks.
Puts Gandalf’s staff to shame
Queen Oba - Mythic Card
- Attacks to charge her power. Once fully charged, she summons her Horror, damaging and stunning enemies around it.
Mana - 6
World - Realm
Tip: When summoning Queen Oba, make sure she’s at a safe distance from her lane opponents so that she has time to attack 4 times and charge up. When fully charged, her Horror spawns in front of her dealing area damage and stunning enemies around it. If her Horror is already summoned, it repeats area damage and stun instead when Queen Oba collects another 4 charges. For a devastating combo, combine her with tanky units or other stuns like Frost Imp, Chilling Wind, or Valen hammers. That way you’ll buy her time to summon her Horror and maximize her damage.
Third time’s the charm. Fourth time’s a Queen Oba nightmare.
Devourer - Epic Card
- Consumes the closest enemy Minion it comes into contact and digests it. While digesting, Devourer is slowed. If killed during digestion, enemy is freed.
Mana - 7
World - Realm
Tip: One gulps Abomination/Juggernaut. Make sure to protect him while he’s digesting.
A frog prince. Who wants to give him a kiss?
Mountain Giant - Rare Card
- This giant carries a bunch of Rolling Rocks ready to jump into battle every time he takes damage.
Mana - 7
World - Realm
Tip: Use him against units with small damage to take advantage of his special ability that creates rolling rocks every time he takes damage!
A rock in every bite!
Stone Elemental - Epic Card
- A slow moving behemoth. Once defeated, he splits into 3 smaller versions of himself. One in each lane.
Mana - 8
World - Realm
Tip: One of the tankiest minions, then when you kill him he splits into 3 smaller copies. Incredible at stopping a push.
It’s a hard rock life
Fire Witch - Legendary Card
- A powerful witch well versed in the art of pyromancy. She summons a meteor shower to crush all enemies after a few seconds.
Mana - 9
World - Realm
Tip: Fire Witch needs a 5 seconds of channeling before she can unleash her devastating global attack. Make sure she has time to charge up!
You better stock up on fire insurance
VOID MINIONS
Undead Horde - Common Card
- A group of undead footsoldiers to swarm enemies.
Mana - 3

Ravenous Scourge - Common Card
- A virus Minion that multiplies every few seconds.
Mana - 3
World - Void

I would make a pun about his clones, but he would just copy it.

- A bloodthirsty demon who gets stronger after each Minion he kills.
Mana - 3
World - Void
Tip: Make sure he kills enemies!
The crystal shard in his back gets bigger when he’s excited…for battle.
Reaper - Rare Card
- Attack multiple enemies at once with Reaper’s scythe.
Mana - 4
World - Void
Tip: Great at already killing the dead (Undead Horde/Army)
Bone Appétit!
Valkyrie - Rare Card
- Unafraid of death, Valkyrie jumps into battle wielding a devasting sword but light armor.
Mana - 4
World - Void
Tip: At 4 mana, she has the highest damage of any Minion. More than Abomination if you level her up! Just keep her protected!
Being a Valkyrie is tough. Everyone is dying to meet you!
Viper - Rare Card
- Equipped with a venomous blade that poisons enemies.
Mana - 4
World - Void
Tip: Each attack is quite lethal applying poison that deals 15% of target’s health per second. Try using it to attack a tanky unit then commander to switch lanes!
Surprisingly, the most toxic thing about Viper is his vocabulary.”
Doppelganger - Epic Card
- Transforms into a random enemy Minion on the battlefield. Dies at spawn if no enemies are on field.
Mana - 4
World - Void
Tip: For 2 Mana, you can be anything! But he’ll vanish if there are no enemies spawned.
Soul Leech - Legendary Card
- This demonic priestess slowly snakes through the battlefield, harvesting souls of fallen allies to heal and empower herself.
Mana - 4
World - Void
Tip: Cast her in the back so she has time to gather all the souls from your minions. Pair her with swarm units (and in a different lane too), so that she can be insurance in case your enemy finds a way to counter. There is one other evil minion who likes to steal from swarm minions as well, I’m wondering who that is? Sounds like the two of them could be best buddies.
Will leech souls, but won’t leech your Netflix password or not pay rent.
Executioner - Rare Card
- Born to kill, Executioner pulls in enemies towards him to deliver strong cleave attacks.
Mana - 5
World - Void
Tip: Use it to round up all enemies in a lane and send them into the arms of Executioner where his cleave attacks should make quick work of them. Just make sure you take advantage of the stun too!
Just wants a hug
Bloodstalker - Legendary Card
- Steals a portion of health from all friendly units to buff up his health and damage.
Mana - 5
World - Void
Tip: The Bloodstalker thirsts for blood. Make sure to play him when you have Minions on the battlefield to increase his strength.
Don’t ask us how he steals blood from an Undead Horde.
Hellfiend - Legendary Card
- Tears open the ground to summon Hellfiend dealing heavy damage around him.
Mana - 6
World - Void
Tip: He can be spawned anywhere on the battlefield. Even right next to your enemy’s Portal!
Hellfiend is soular powered
Anubis - Epic Card
- Passively spawns undead footsoldiers in his lane every few seconds.
Mana - 6
World - Void
Tip: A solid mid game card with ranged attack and a bone shield to protect him.
Speaks only in hieroglyphics
Undead Raid - Common Card
- Spawns 15 skeletons spawned randomly across your half of the battlefield.
Mana - 7
World - Void
Tip: 15 Skeletons + Bloodstalker = trouble.
UNDEADMAGEDDON
Lord Sumrak - Mythic Card
- Attacks enemies to charge his power. Once fully charged, he lifts enemies in his lane and slams them into the ground, damaging and stunning them.
Mana - 7
World - Void
Tip: Lord Sumrak’s ability is strong enough to kill a Silver Ranger of equal level (or even one level lower), track for lanes where enemy has weak minions in front that allow him to charge up so that he can get rid of the ones in the back! Lord Sumrak’s ability affects the whole lane, even minions that are behind him, so he is great at countering Mountain Giant, he can clean up the pesky Rolling Rocks that jump over his head and attack your portal. Lord Sumrak is great when used with other stuns, like Frost Imp, or Valen hammers. They can help him charge up his ability safely. Pixie sleeping a full lane and then sending Lord Sumrak can be a devastating combo. Lord Sumrak hiding behind a Crystal Colossus can wreak havoc. He is even good at countering the enemy that is using the same strategy, to kill all the archers that think they are safe when hiding behind a tank!
Strong people don’t put others down. They lift them up.
Undead Army - Common Card
- Spawns a group of undead warriors in each lane.
Mana - 8

The King of Bones, take a knee peasant!
Abomination - Epic Card
- A repugnant monster with overwhelmingly powerful strikes.
Mana - 12
World - Void
Tip: A late game Minion with high health and single target damage. Susceptible to range attacks and stuns.
As vicious as he is ugly, and oh boy is he ugly.
