Brakus the Shifter is a Legendary Attack champion of the Force affinity from the Skinwalkers faction, introduced in the notoriously demanding Halloween 2019 "Extreme Fusion" event. He is a self-sustaining single-target nuker whose revive-and-retaliate passive makes him a persistent Arena threat.
Core Strengths & Abilities
Multi-Hit Damage & Lifesteal: His A2, Full Moon Rampage, strikes one enemy 6 times on a 3-turn booked cooldown, with a guaranteed (once booked) 25% Weaken debuff for 3 turns on the first hit, and heals him for 25% of damage dealt — 50% if the target is under Fear or True Fear. The six hits also make him excellent at breaking Fire Knight's shield.
Fear Pressure & Attack Support: Hunter's Howl places a 50% Increase ATK buff on all allies for 3 turns, then hits 3 times with a 75% booked chance per hit of True Fear, spreading Fear to 2 random enemies when it lands.
Beast Mode Passive: His damage rises 40% below 40% HP, and on death he revives with 20% HP and immediately takes an extra turn — the engine behind his Arena and creative revive-based Clan Boss teams.
Key Weaknesses
Single-Target Only: With no AoE, he underperforms in wave and multi-target content such as Spider and Iron Twins, and his Fear-based control does nothing against bosses immune to it.
Brakus shines in Fire Knight (9), Arena, and Clan Boss, including Demytha unkillable compositions as a Force affinity tank.
