Hey everyone!
It's time for the Cyclops in Gods Unchained, who in mythology are gigantic, one-eyed creatures with enormous strength. There are 7 of them in Gods Unchained, all with great power to crush enemies and that have a high mana cost to enter the battlefield.
Without further ado, let's begin:
| Source | Source |
| The only 4 mana Cyclops, it has 4/4 stats and a 50% chance to not attack the intended target. And it can gain more stats if the enemy god takes damage on your turn. For a 4 mana epic, it's not that great. | Currently the only legendary Cyclops, it is useful to prevent the opponent from being able to use the power of his god easily, since its cost will increase by 2, while this creature is on the battlefield. |

| This Cyclops is good for clearing the board of the enemies with 1 health when it attacks, as it will deal 1 damage to all other creatures on the board. Keep in mind, that its effect also affects your creatures. | The only Cyclops that has Hidden, and may only have 4/4 stats for a 6 mana creature, but it has the twin strike effect, so it can perform two attacks per turn, but only one to the gods. |

| Blind Cyclops, like the 6 mana Cyclops, also deals 1 damage to each other creature, but this one deals damage at the end of its turn. | A simple Cyclops, I would say, has 6 strength and 10 health, so it's not bad for a common creature after all. And since it has the Frontline effect, it will force the enemies to attack it first, so it's also good for protecting allies. |
Vinebound Jotun is currently the most powerful Cyclops, not only because of its stats, which are very high, having 10/12, but also because of its effects. First, it has the Overkill effect, so when its damage exceeds the target creature's health, the remaining damage is distributed randomly among all other enemy characters. It's really good, as it has an incredible 10 strength.
And when it enters the board, thanks to its Roar effect, it will deal 3 damage to each other creature, which is very good for eliminating the weaker creatures.
Do you like Cyclops creatures? Which one is your favorite?
For me, it's definitely Vinebound Jotun, as I mentioned before, because it has two great effects and its high stats, making it one of those creatures you don't want to face. The bad thing is that, since it costs 8 mana, it is very difficult to summon.
Cyclops are really cheap to buy. The cheapest meteorite quality is the Moon-Crazed Cyclops and the Blind Cyclops, which only cost $0.01. And the most expensive is the legendary Porphyrion, Dread Cyclops, a single meteorite costs $0.17.
