Queen of Herds is one of the cards in Stormbound: Kingdom Wars.

Overview
Queen of Herds is a legendary undead hero that randomly plays a satyr from your deck. She can be upgraded to play 2 satyrs at level 4. She sees play in swarm decks.

Strategies
Queen of Herds pulls satyrs from your deck, so the way your deck is built affects her.
 * It is best to only have a few satyrs in your deck when you use Queen of Herds, as to keep her ability consistent.
 * Putting expensive satyrs like Dreadfauns can bring great value, as you essentially play a 5 mana card for free.
 * Carefully choosing where you play Queen of Herds and the positioning of your own units can help you control where the played satyr will go.
 * Since the placement is in the same row as you play it, it combos well with Herald's Hymn.
