Maud Stonefoot is a very interesting legendary monster with Dwarf Bloodline. At first look, many players might ignore him because at lower levels, he only has 1 magic damage and 1 health which does not look very strong. But if you consider that he has 0 mana cost, that thinking can be wrong. Because he costs 0 mana, he is very easy to include in any lineup. You do not sacrifice any mana to bring extra magic damage into the fight. Even at low damage, he is important because magic ignores armor. It's also a good thing Maud Stonefoot is in Water Element so Marlai Singariel can boost that damage more. --- Aqua Simple Banner 1.png

Stats

Maud Stonefoot is a really strong monster but unlike his gen-mates, he doesn't have a strong damage or strong health. Maud Stonefoot is nothing but an incredible filler on my eyes so why is it good? The lower levels doesn't have abilities and the highest levels, I also think the ability isn't that good but a 0 mana monster with magic damage is a very strong addition especially when we have Marlai Singariel boosting any magic damage the team does.

This ability allows all units that share this monster's bloodline to gain 1 damage when they defeat an opponent's monster and take 1 true damage if one of those monster with the shared bloodline gets defeated. Then, if this monster dies, all the bonuses gets removed and similar bloodlines gets 2 damage. It's a tricky ability to use since you need to keep this monster and all of the monster with the same Bloodline safe. Because Maud Stonefoot has Dwarf Bloodline, then if any Dwarf Bloodline monsters kills another monster, all monster with Dwarf Bloodline in your team gets +1 damage. On the other hand, if one Dwarf monster dies, all monsters in your side that has Dwarf Bloodline takes 1 damage. That is bad since this monster only has 4 health at max level. If this monster dies, all bonuses are gone and your other Dwarves also takes 2 damage. Make sure you have a Taunt monster to keep everyone safe to avoid taking the damage. --- Aqua Simple Banner 1.png

Battle

In this battle, Maud Stonefoot didn't do anything significant. He did not carry the game or did some game changing blow. He just stood there and added a few more damage to a team where I chose monsters and capped my mana. Because he is a 0 mana monster, I can add him to any lineup and he would do good. The difference is that I actually want to keep Maud Stonefoot safe. With just 1 health but deals 2 magic damage because of Marlai Singariel, that's a huge thing for a 0 mana monster. Overall, the opponent's team should've won this one. They have a more focused team with all having magic damage while my tank does melee damage and can be blocked by armor. If I don't have Maud Stonefoot here, I surely would've lost this battle but with the extra 2 magic damage from Maud Stonefoot, not only it balanced the damage output between the team, it also added more bodies to protect my backline. --- [comment]: <> (!-- Start of Author's Notes --!)

Maud Stonefoot is a unique 0 mana legendary monster. He gives free magic damage although I find his ability very hard to use even in theory. His ability can snowball damage not only for him but for the rest of the lineup but is very risky if a Dwarf dies. He must be protected with Taunt and strong frontline. Even with low stats, since he costs 0 mana, that shouldn't be a problem. This monster is a free monster you add when you have extra slot and maxed out your mana cap. Maud Stonefoot is a monster that boosts your team without any downside. Wood Nymph Smug Divider.gif
