    Markus422 I need me some PIE!

    For Profhulk. Pretty solid on list. Only thing I might want to swap out is Nexus but idk what I'd want to replace it with on FS side

    Goading Mask is op...I stopped playing this BG cause people complained about having to go through upwards of 50+ buffer dmg...

    Not beginner friendly but this was the bg that got me to top 100

    Edit: reviewing this I see that Quagmirrian no longer has Nexus Aura which may open an additional FS slot (Angels being the most splashable i guess) and this was before Dampen was removed due to NUX

    Ah ok, I'm fairly new so I will avoid this one.

    I just had an idea on what to replace on FS side. What are your thoughts on replacing one of your Jellebrium Nexus with the spell Blood of the Swamp?

    Solid runes to test with Grintmaw are Tortuns; Risen Grenadier and Tortun Bokor are my favorite and usually provide enough presence to setup for Rock Defiance...overall good units to have Stonearm Sash on...another viable option that I switch out depending on the module is Darkmarsh witch...charges can get out of hand and if you replace an IS dupe for a Mail of Barbs you have a lot of extra attacks that scale with Rock Defiance.

    As for the setup and utility Blood of the Swamp provides, it is a 25nora spell to trigger opponents counters before using Grintmaw Hymn which has more utility when running Trolls. Both spells are nice picks but with so many Marsh Songs and being FS, it is very easy to save up over 100 nora to cast Heartstone and Hymns.

    On the IS side, I recommend trying Kingmaker as it provides a solid setup with Gift: Bubble. Also, IS/FS has a nice Nora Gem module if you like dropping relics which because of their abilities can replace Marsh Song outright while providing board presence.
