Close Range

"Can use ranged attacks from the first position."
Normal attack accuracy applies.
Remarkable Interactions
- Fernheart and Runemancer Flore make a great team, allowing her to use both ranged and magic attacks until the very end!
- When paired with Scavenger, Close Range can create a formidable foe! Iza the Fanged can rack up quite a bit of health before proceeding to the first position!
Notable Modifiers
- Broken arrows - Ranged attack units can not be used. Avoid using the archon Fernheart which grants the close range ability.
- Fire & Regret - Ranged attack units take damage from any successful attacks. Consider this when including a ranged unit on your team!
Notable Abilities
- Blast - Paired with Blast, close range continues to damage the target and adjacent Units.
- Stun - prevent your opponent from attacking in the next round, increasing the likelihood that you will defeat them!
Archons with Close Range:
Fernheart is an Epic Earth archon. With a mana cost of 4, he is very useful, particularly in the lower leagues. Your opponent may not expect to face a ranged attack Unit in the first position! An added bonus of +1 health makes him formidable indeed.
