Brood Sages is one of the cards in Stormbound: Kingdom Wars.

Overview

Brood Sages is an epic toad unit that spawns toads for every nearby poisoned enemy. The strength of Brood Sages and the number of toads it spawns can be increased when leveled up. Brood Sages can work in poison and swarm decks.

Strategies

Brood Sages can spawn a lot of toads, but only if you have a lot of poisoned units, which can be hard to maintain.

• Note that Brood Sages will spawn its toads on tiles bordering the poisoned units, not around itself.
• Poisoning cards like Copperskin Ranger or Venomfall Spire can help activate Brood Sages' ability. At level 4 and above, these cards also poison 3 enemies at once.
• One good card to pair with Brood Sages is Toxic Sacrifice. Its area poison allows for Brood Sage's ablity to spawn lots of toads.
• The 1 strength toads are also great for Kindred's Grace to strengthen.
