Brood Sages

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.
 * Use poison cards like Copperskin Ranger and Heliotroopers to help activate Brood Sages' ability. Toxic Sacrifice also works for poisoning lots of units at once and opening up a middle tile.
 * The 1 strength toads are also great for Kindred's Grace to strengthen or for Obsidian Butchers to drain.
